    Doesn't sound legitimate at all. I hope you didn't give them any Bank Account details...

    Never give personal information to cold-calling strangers on the telephone.

    Are you sure this was not in reply to a PPI complaint you may have made?

    Why do they want to know if you repaid it or not. If you don't know, ask them.


    It all seems a bit suss to me.


    What is also suss is that they spoke to your wife about your financial business ???? You need to complain about that one.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.

    You didn't answer my query about this being in reply to a PPI complaint you have sent?
