An individual named CLAUDIA SAVANTA rang my mum who's elderly, pretending to be from TSB for a survey. She knew my mum's complete name. It's deeply disturbing and has really upset her. Fortunately, I happened to be there. Block this number please!!

Daily calls for several days now. No voicemails left.
Over the last few days, I've had loads of spam calls from this number, but that hasn't stopped them leaving these long, silent voicemails. I checked out Savanta online—their contact is 0207 632 3434. Chatted to customer service (option 3 for anything else), sounded proper British, and asked them to scrub my number 'cause those voicemails are a right pain. He tried to dodge it at first, saying they only have an 020 number, not 0800, but when I pushed back, he backed down, promised to pass it to the team for a look, and said sorry for the hassle. If it's not them, they ought to know about calls pretending to be from them, so maybe we should bombard them with reports on their own lines or fake ones.
A gentleman from India introduced himself as Savanta representative conducting client opinion polls for power providers. I informed him he'd need to send an email (as I’m with a major law practice), but he insisted on a direct conversation. I apologised, stating we couldn't assist, then ended and barred the contact.

Today at work, a woman's voice named Sophie Lock from Savanta called for my boss by name, inquiring about British Gas services. I suspect AI voice tech - there were consistent pauses after I spoke, always the same duration. Warning others, as it might fool the elderly or less tech-aware folks

Since Thursday, February 13th, this phone has been ringing roughly four times each day. They're asking for my spouse. I've blocked it on the home line, yet it still shows up as a missed call. The initial time they rang, I mentioned he was working, since folks typically do from Monday to Friday, but they persist in calling during daytime hours.
