Re: who/what the feck is the "National Payment Protection Insurance service"
Probably your insurance company, I know mine got sold on that way as apparently I have hordes of people wanting to help me claim compensation for an accident I had on the exact date I had my accident.
Well either insurance company or the police....they are the only two parties involved in the process who should have records. |

Put your own details into this - see if you show up. You have to be a subscriber to see the listing but parasites are going to pay for that to get to you. I'm x-d for phone and mobile but what's the betting my numbers are in there?

Re: who/what the feck is the "National Payment Protection Insurance service"
Or some git at your mobile company has sold on your number.
I got a text yesterday saying I was entitled to £3200. We even get them on our work mobiles, so some git has passed on our details from Vodaphone or they've got a computer automatically dialing/texting numbers

Re: who/what the feck is the "National Payment Protection Insurance service"
Yeah, this is my work mobile. I do not give that number to anyone not work related.
I am fed up of texts telling me I can claim compensation from accidents that have never happened. Now it is the PPI lot when I have never been claimable mis sold PPI. Had it twice. Once definitely mis sold as I was forced by my bank manager as a condition of a car loan but that was about 20 years ago, and actually claimed on the other PPI when my wife had cancer so a case of glad I had it.

My guess the computer texting pre programmed numbers in a in a prefix range, so our one begins 07720
