I bought a settee through a company using this number for finance. Due to debt issues, we went with StepChange, who handle the payments. However, Barclays Finance keeps calling. Now, we just don't answer. StepChange pays them monthly and has advised us to ignore Barclays Finance, but they continue to harass us.

Expert Opinion
Like a persistent knock at the back door, the calls from +448001615237 burst onto landlines at all hours, often dropping dead the moment you answer. Callers repeatedly claim to be Barclays Partner Finance, yet the number fails official checks and leaves only silent or a brief Hindi mumble before hanging up. This pattern matches a classic scam that relies on annoyance to prompt a reaction. If you recognise the number, let it go to voicemail, avoid sharing any details, and add the caller to your phone’s block list. Report the nuisance to the Information Commissioner’s Office and consider using a call‑filtering service to curb further disturbances.
