Didnt answer and number blocked…Wescott are a debt collection agency that hike up the price of any outstanding balance on your PayPal account. Settle anything outstanding with PayPal directly.
had a pre approved payment go through my paypal which i had been scammed on a certain website when disputed with paypal they didn’t care, since then had phone calls from them with an automated dialler.
Called me with a robot voice and only knew my first name. Now blocked after they try to call daily. SPAM.

Just received my first call from them around 5 minutes ago, this is the 2nd number I've had to block because of PayPal scammers trying to claim debt. Not exactly helpful when PayPal themselves tell me that the transaction I never approved that put me into debt was completely fine.
called me up asking for a Declan Thompson. they always calling me after claiming they would remove me off their database.
Loads of blocked calls from this,.
Highly harassing, beware and don't answer
Recorded message asking for someone who we don’t know to ring them back. 2 calls a day. Now blocked
Sending texts saying they've been trying to contact me but the only number persistently trying to ring is PAYPAL. I added my mobile number to my PayPal account and since that day they've done nothing but call,! I blocked the PayPal number now ive blocked this one too as they've started to call. This should be a criminal offence! To pursue people to the point of breaking these people belong in prison.
Have an out of date number. Using a robo-dialler to phone people
Called every day for the past 3 days. Day 1 rang off before I answered. Day 2 an automated voice asked if I was a certain person and to press 1 if yes, press 2 if no (so clearly a scam). Day 3 I answered and it was a silent call. Please log all these calls with the ICO if you feel harrassed or anxious. They will get fined if more people do this. https://ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint/nuisance-calls-and-messages/.

Calls 6 times a day at least on behalf of PayPal, no idea why they call but its anywhere from 7am to 9pm. Tried to contacting them back and its getting me nowhere. Absolute jokers.
Harassment false debt collection calls.
Debt collectors asking 2,500 on behalf of a gas company I never used. Very harassing
Harrassment calls for debts
Calls frequently undoubtedly about a bs PayPal debt. I have to clear my voicemails from time to time because of the automated message build up they leave “press 1...”
These people were calling my phone four times a day then started messaging me twice a day I haven’t got a clue why they are calling me. I’ve just learnt I can block them by a previous message. I wish they would leave me alone as I’m very ill and need to rest.

Calls my number at least 6 times a day, trying to collect debts from PayPal. I have never had a PayPal account and I definitely don’t intend to set one up now. When I explained I wasn’t the person they were looking for the woman started name calling and kept ringing back every time I hung up
i don’t answer but checked that company and said they’re debt collectors and i have no debts. I pay all my bills on time so there is no reason to answer and even now after all comments i read i’m going to block them.
Don't be Fooled! These people are disgusting scammers trying to collect money of you for no reason. Sometimes they are related to PayPal debt which means PayPal are calling illegal scammers to take your money off you. I once had a negative balance of 2p and payed it straight away and now there asking for a debt of £2000 for nothing. SCAM!!!! DONT BE FOOLED.
01482590502- keep calling me harassing me every day. Do not answer! block them.
Company called Westcott. Famous for harassment. We used them with our bank customers but stopped using them for recoveries customers once we got wind of the harassment of customers. They also take on PayPal cases which can be shady in themselves as PayPal are also famous for creating illegal debt against sellers (buyer scams) then attempting to chase this up
I have no debt however i have been receiving phone calls fromthis number 01482483281 wescot they rang back in january i rang them and thought i had got them to stop but they have started again. they were after some one by a different name.
Automated call to a person I have never heard of. I phoned back and they claimed they were working on behalf of a Utility Company, but would not tell me which one. I explained there was no one here by that name, as I am the first and only resident here. I asked that they give me the name of the utility company as obviously their information was incorrect. They said this could not be done. I said their practice of not checking the number before pestering people reflected what a rubbish company Westcote is. I am on TPS preference service
This number keeps calling my landline, it gives the option to press 1 if you are the person they want or 2 if you are not, I pressed 2 but keep getting harrassed. I phoned them today to advise there is no Joanne Marsh here and never has been, she wanted to take my address which I refused as I stated no Joanne here and if they are collecting on behalf of British Gas, this property is 200 year old and never had a gas supply. She says she will take the number off the database! We will wait and see
Like others have said - repeated robot call for unknown person - press 2 - stupid message to pass message to unknown person. Pressed various other digits today 00009999999999 - got through to operator - said they'd take my number off system. Fingers crossed
They call the Company I work for ALL the time! Sometimes leave a recorded voicemail that makes no sense, but I just took a call from them and the lady said I need to give her the number of our accounts dept. but we don't give numbers out so said I'd ask them to call her and she said they don't accept calls?!?!? She said it was due to an outstanding invoice but she wouldn't tell me how much, what is was for or for which address!!!! SCAM!!!! They just want to get numbers so they can call more people.
Its one of British Gasses debt collection companys used to enforce their scams.I had my gas switched off as its totally unsafe as condemned by the last gas man to visit.My account was re-opened with estimated gas usage then the debt transfered to debt collectors. I refuse to pay anything, ever, and will never have a gas connection again!!! They knowingly fiddle gas checks and still supply
NPOWER USE THEM TO HARASS CUSTOMERS WHO LEFT DUE TO ESTIMATED BILLS. Npower Energy Company a con.
Out of the blue they started calling I from this numbe r3-4 times a day(automated)then texting and calling from a mobile despite me answering and telling them that the lady they were looking for isn't here! Compete pain in the backside! Ende up just blocking them.
This number keeps calling i will not answer it just blocked it. hope thats the end of it.
Bogus automation - so, whatever you do, don't press 1 or no doubt you'll get a huge bill for a premium phone call.
Automated call from the company asking for a person who has never lived at me property and who I have no idea is. They call twice a day and they are driving me nuts. It makes no difference when you press 2 to say you are not the person they are asking for they still continue to call you
I get the same automated message every time, always asking for a bloke iv never even heard of & quoting a ref number. Sick of blocking 1 number then they come back with a different 1 ffs
