Would not tell me what it was concerning and as my wife was out they phoned back later.
They informed her it was reference her application for a credit card something she did not apply for as she has enough already  . They were insisted she had and stated she would have to phone them back to cancel it !!!!!! 0800 7831116.
Wonder if anyone else had such callsââ‚ƚ¬Ã‚¦Ã¢à¢ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã…¡Ã‚¬Ã‚¦Ãà †â€™Ãƒâ€šÃ‚¢ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ã‚¬Ãà ¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚¦..we are ex directory but they got our name and name from somewhere |
This sounds worrying.In fact it sounds like a scam to me.Give no details out over the phone.I'm sure if was genuine they would SNAIL mail you.Also you need to be very careful IF it is a genuine query as someone may be trying to steal your wifes ID and obtain a card in her name.
Incog.
