It seems like the number +441732280948 is being used by scammers pretending to be from Cabot Financial. Multiple users report receiving frequent calls and voicemails, where the caller claims to have sent letters, which is false. The real Cabot Financial number is 0345 070 2615, as confirmed by an official letter. These scammers often avoid using the recipient's name and are persistent, making the calls very annoying. If you receive such a call, do not press any buttons or provide personal information. Block the number and let it go to voicemail if you don’t recognise it. Stay vigilant and report any suspicious activity to your bank and the relevant authorities.
Got no message left after they invited me, so I just blocked the number – no fuss.
Looks like a total rip‑off, mate.
Someone pretended to be from Cabot Financial but didn’t even know my name or address – obvious scam. Best to ignore this number.
Received a voicemail claiming to be Cabot Financial, but it was clearly a fake – they’d been ringing on and on, cheers.
I'm almost 70, retired, debt‑free and hold the top credit rating. I never answer voicemails, so any debt‑collector scam will just get blocked and reported.
Calls never actually ring, just drop a voicemail – not for me, even after I blocked it, cheers.
Reference to Cabot.
No outstanding debts that I’m not already handling, and I have no clue who these folks are or how they got my details – fishy, right?
Apparently it’s Cabot, not spam – but still worth a sceptical glance.
I fed them a fabricated but believable name and kept them on the line for about an hour. The caller sounded Indian yet used an English name like John Jones. Eventually I slipped, they realized I was playing, and started shouting profanities. I managed to keep them occupied without them harassing anyone else. #scammerpayback
Turns out the number actually belongs to Cabot Financial, despite the chatter about scams, mate.
Avoid answering this number! They've been calling me daily for over a year. It's a scam; they can't be legitimate debt collectors since they started when I was only 17, below the legal age for personal debt. Blocking them only leads them to use another number. Do not answer.
I keep getting calls insisting I owe a debt I do not have. I've now blocked the number, but the persistence was extreme.
A concealed number kept ringing between 17:00‑19:00 over several days, claiming to be Cabot and demanding I call about a debt, yet never providing a callback number. I have no debts, checked my credit – all clear. Today the same number called again without leaving a message, still identifying as Cabot and promising “invisible letters”. This behaviour feels like a scam, so I’m warning others.
The comment that follows appears to be written by a genuine person.
It's amusing to see people label them scammers… If you never default on your debts, you wouldn't have collectors hounding you, lol.
Yet another call from Cabot—frustrating.
A voicemail claimed to be from Cabot Financial, stating it was a private call and urging an immediate reply, yet it never mentioned my name.
Cabbott again, for goodness' sake!
Claiming to be Cabot Financial, left a VM saying it's a private call and to respond now. No personalisation, so likely scammers.
Repeated calls have been made by Cabot Financial, which are extremely annoying and persistent; it is imperative that these scam calls are stopped

There have been multiple calls from this number. The caller alleged to be from Cabot and mentioned sending letters, which isn’t true
I'm grateful for the warnings from users on this platform about scammers, which prompted me to block +44 1732 280948; it's a shame BT doesn't take action against these call centre scammers, likely due to the revenue they generate
Be wary of the number 01732 280948, as it is not affiliated with Cabot, whose official number is 0345 070 2615, as stated in a letter I received from them; these scammers will stop at nothing to obtain personal details.
Remain cautious of fraudulent callers attempting to extract private details through phone conversations.
