First Credit calls nonstop – how to stop the harassment!

Research has shown that the company, First Credit, has a history of fraudulent activities and should not be trusted.

A man requested to speak with my ex, with whom I had not been in a relationship for over a year. When I inquired about the purpose of the call, he claimed it was personal and thus couldn't disclose any information. I proceeded to provide him with my ex's number, hoping it might be a debt collection company.

These individuals consistently call me at work, at home, and on my mobile, which is extremely frustrating.

A strange call was received from them earlier today, inquiring about an individual who has no connection to this residence or phone number, so I didn't bother returning the call

Apparently, the best course of action is to contact them directly and request to speak with a supervisor, although it's likely that a team leader will handle the call instead.

I received another call from First Credit on this number today. Despite having letters confirming my debt, the situation is complicated. Due to a clerical error, my wages were delayed, and I had less than 24 hours' notice. I cancelled my direct debit to avoid bank charges, but when I was called the next day, the representative was extremely rude and refused to set up a new payment arrangement. I requested to speak to a supervisor due to the threats made, including contacting my employer, which could impact my promotion. The supervisor eventually called back but demanded the full amount, suggesting I ask family and friends for help.

First Credit is indeed the company behind this number; although they're not as bad as some might think, they can be problematic when they have incorrect information

I called them back with the 141 prefix, they were trying to collect two debts from llyods TSB from 7 years ago, i told them they cant collect because the debts are statute barred and had PPI attached, they hung up on me.

If you have a debt with someone and they keep calling, should you pay them or not, thats the question

Repeated calls from this number have been made, asking for someone else, and when I request the company name, the callers become rude and uncooperative, refusing to verify their identity, which has led me to hang up and seek to have their number barred.

Paul's advice is well-taken, and following his procedure is the best course of action.

Initially, I recieved a call from an unknown number, the person asked for my date of birth, to which I replied no, and he explaned he was calling from 1st credit on behalf of United Utilities, I still refused to give him the informations.

Despite having paid off the debt, I continue to receive calls from this number claiming I owe money, and I have receipts to prove payment was made

This number has contacted me multiple times, incorrectly seeking a person named Darren, prompting me to call back and inform them of their mistake, which is becoming increasingly frustrating.

Our phone has been ringing every day last week with this number, and when we anser, all we hear is beeping noises... It's extremly anoying, especally when they call early on a sunday, wich is just rude.

Repeated calls are being made to my number, requesting to speak with my brother, despite being informed of the most convenient time to reach him

Several years ago, 1st Credit 1st contacted me regarding an alleged debt to a company I had previously dealt with. However, this claim was inaccurate, as the company had accepted and cashed my payment, thus terminating our contract.

Due to their persistent calls, I've started avoiding unfamiliar numbers, which now prevents others from reaching me

Research led to the discovery of this thread through a Google search.

It is essential to stand up against these callers, as their actions constitute harassment, and reporting them can lead to consequences
