Imagine your phone rings at work and a recorded voice claims you’ve won £250 in vouchers – only to hang up when you try to respond. This is a classic PPI‑reclaim style scam that uses the 08437 prefix to appear legitimate. Never press any numbers or share personal details; the call is designed to harvest data or charge you for a non‑existent prize. Block the number on your handset and add it to the Telephone Preference Service. Report the nuisance to Action Fraud and consider a call‑filtering app. Staying silent and reporting are your best defences against these relentless harassments.

This is clearly a scam, as genuine callers would leave a voicemail, yet I receive missed calls from them at least twice a week.
This is an automatic scam call, dont answer
I didn't answer the call, as it seemed like spam
Maddening aggravation ensues every couple of days with these incessant calls to my mobile.
Recurring calls from this number, reportedly offering a prize, have become a weekly nuisance, with the opt-out option seemingly ineffective
I have been receiving automated calls regarding various issues, including PPI and accident claims, which I have learned to block, as they can be persistent if answered.
I recieved another fake call, claiming I had won £250 of vouchers, but it was just a scam.
Despite being on the TPS registry, this number has made multiple calls, never leaving a message, and has now been blocked.
A persistent recorded message has been received, and the number has now been registered with the TPS in hopes of stopping the calls.
We recieve calls from 08437243498, supposedly from PPI Reclaims, at least once a day, sometimes twice, to our office
Recieved an automated call saying I had won, rang the number and got an automated message about delayed flight compensation, which is ridiculous since I've never flown!!!!
This number keeps calling with a recorded message, which is extremely frustrating.
The phone rang briefly before the caller hung up.
Daily calls are received around the same time, often claiming that I have won a prize of £250.
Our answer phone has been set to activate immediately upon receiving a call, and a personalized greeting has been recorded, explicitly telling scammers and unsolicited companies to cease contact, after which the call is ended; to date, approximately 50 numbers have been blocked, and our answer phone has proven to be highly effective.
I regularly receive a recorded message saying I've won £250, but it's the same scam others have reported, and I'm fed up with it
