PPI Claims Handling Company?

Hi All
I've just hung up on a call from a company that called themsellves "The PPI Claims Unit". They didn't offer anymore details and proceeded to ask me lots of questions. My guard was up when they said to tell Halifax that i was requesting policy numbers off my own back.
Has anybody heard from them? The agent when pressed said the company was called PPI Claims Unit, T/S Black Pearl Claims Ltd, based in Yorkshire.
I'm assuming this is a 3rd party company that would have taken a huge commission?
I'd like to give them a definitive "NO" when they call back tomorrow so if anyone has any thing helpful?
Thanks

Yes - avoid them, there's loads like it. No point paying someone to do a task you can do simply yourself.
When they ring back just politely ask to be removed from their dialler list, and in future don't engage in conversations with cold-callers.0 -
