Constant Calling From Loan Companies

in Loans
Due to severe money issues I spent most of 2012 and the start of 2013 constantly looking for loans to raise cash. I have since broken up with my partner but she is still getting calls from loan companies and it seems to have stepped up again in the last few weeks. It is stressing her and causing problems in our, what was, amicable separation. I am not there to take the calls and they won't take the number off their lists as she is not named. As I went through dozens of random 'loan brokers' I have no idea who is calling therefore can not make a call to someone to get them stopped. Can anyone help or suggest anything, please? My ex does not want to change her number as she has had the number for years. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

There is a box you can get from Ama*on which filters out common cold call numbers. It has a button on it to add the incoming number to its list so she could press the button and gradually whittle away the unwanted calls.I’m a Senior Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Pensions, Annuities & Retirement Planning, Loans

Are you doing anything about dealing with your debts?
In an ideal world you would get hold of letters from creditors, give them your contact details so that they would take the old number off their list, and make (and keep) some kind of arrangement to service the debt. While this may not be possible, it would be good if you at least told creditors how to contact you by letter, and wrote replies to their letters. So long as you do so, you have a right to insist that they do not contact you by telephone.0
