Oh these scumbags have been calling me for well over a year. I try to get an address from them but to no avail.

Last time they claimed they were based at 4 Regent Street, London.

I'd love to be able to report them but like you really have more urgent matters to attend to.

Ha.. i too have suffered from this bunch over the last week or so.
They would not take NO for an answer and stop calling with the very badly written script.
They could not answer my question about whether they were a broker or who they were really.
And i tried to get the UK address for them.

Then I decided to get mad and find out who they were. Many calls later....
I decided to apply for the loan and then get the address.

So ....after refusing ( and confusing the poor call centre people)to give my date of birth to them until I got a name of the company...

I did it....

I got put through to an English lady who said the company was..

First Aid Finance
Walsall
WS8 6HG.

And funnily enough .. only just registered at Companies House too.

They also have a website ..http://www.firstaidfinance.co.uk/


Now they may have been lying to me ?

I feel a freedom of information Act question coming on via their website,( that does not demand your date of birth)

I have now registered for the phone preferance service and after requesting the under the Data protection Act they no longer have permission to call me, and 28 days abfore the FPS kicks in and I can formally block them from ever calling me again.

Yes .. a complete waste of time.
But i have had enough of people like this and decided to bite back.

Walsall? Just down the road from me ... are you sure it was an English woman you spoke to? They're very diverse down there.

Hi well I have just had a call from one guy who said he was from a company but mentioned the name UK Finance Ltd an name Ive frequently heard them use. Ive had a call like this many times. It has often been about my mortgage and wanting me to change it. They ask what percentage I am paying. This guy wasnt persistent but they can be. I have also had the same line that I applied for a loan when I hadnt. Its usually an Indian sounding person.

A few times they where able to tell me some of my details like who my mortgage is with. I think someone cold called me one day and I stupidly gave some details out and they took note of them. I have like some tv ads been tempted to wind these guys up and make them hold the line and say your call is very important to us. Or give them a dose of their own medicine and try to sell them something.

One time I think I said to the guy before you go would you like to buy a mobile phone lol. But their calls are annoying. Ive always wanted to find if they had a website so I could basically tell them what I thought of them and not to call me again.
Peter.
