Who's called

Oftel records show that numbers starting 020 3603 2 are allocated to Magrathea Telecommunications Limited.     Likely a call centre and routed from abroad.

I keep getting calls from this number.  I no longer answer calls and leave them for the answer machine.  They never leave a message!  TPS is a joke.

Have had several calls from this number. We have told them that there is no one here of the name they ask to speak to. Dont know what they want and have no particular interest in finding out!.
PS We are supposed to be on the TPS!

Nice, friendly Indo-sounding woman who said her firm was "raising awareness2 in the health field.  Asked all sorts of health questions, grovelling with praise at every positive thing I said.  Finally she got down to the bit in her script where it came to the sell. POMAX, pomegranate skin in capsules that to everything from giving a giant erection to curing cancer. She hung up abruptly immediately it became apparent to her that I was not interested in buying them on line from her.

It's a pity you did not get a name for this lot.  The call has all the hallmarks of belonging to a group of well known scammers.  These companies prey on elderly and vulnerable people /  They pretend to be Health Care Professionals (which they are not) and the victim unknowingly discusses any health problems they have.  The scammers are so good that they end up convincing the victim that the scammer is the one who knows all about their health.  All the companies seem to push the same products, i.e Pomegranate capsules, piils or liquids.  They tell the victim that they are doing a special price for pensioners of £14.99 and all they need are the bank/card details. The victim later finds out that rather than £14.99 the sum of £149.90 has been taken from their account.  As they have bank/card details they continue to take this amount and send their rubbish.  Some elderly people have lost thousands of pounds because they have been so ashamed at being conned they have not told their families.  The known companies in the group are Sanda Wellness (or Wellbeing).Elbon Wellbeing and Natura Healthcare.  They seem to cover different parts of the country.  All the companies are based in Goa and Mumbai, India, and all the UK "addresses" they give are accommodation addresses with hundeds of "companies" with the same address.

'Indo-sounding woman'
Korean,perhaps?

Indeed,it is Elbon again!    http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01rg1gk

Not a survey.
Known scam targeting vulnerable, confused and very old for bank details.
For several hundred pounds you end up with useless herbal pills you can buy at a supermarket.

I am neither vulnerable or confused so the caller wasted a lot of her time telling me all about the attributes of pomegranates. As soon as the words 'send you' were uttered the phone went down. She attempted to ring back then gave up as I guess she has a lot of people to call!!!!!!!!!!!

TPS. Check the details of their service before you coment on their service. They do provide full details.

Fortunately , unearthing scams has been my forte and that too scams leading to us vulnerable.

My visit to India and back has been insightful with many documentary evidence to nail such scams, i have been assured of more evidence once i reach India post Christmas, one such scami is mentioned below,

This is regarding the Company named “Sanda Wellness” which is into health supplements related to various health concerns. Sanda Wellness changed its name to “Natural Wellness Products Ltd” which filed for insolvency and I understand that, ironically has been sold to the company “Your Lifestyle Products Ltd” and is presently operating in the field of marketing health supplements by means of telemarketing in the UK . The fact that the Directors or atleast one Director in the company Your Lifestyle Products Ltd is common to the company Natural Wellness Products Ltd and thus it cannot be ruled out that the so called dissolution and sale of the company Natural Wellness Products Ltd is a mere eyewash and a ploy of its founder Mr. Ajit Patel to evade prosecution.

These people have no qualms about ruthlessly scamming elderly and vulnerable people - often those with dementia - out of hundreds or thousands of pounds. Therefore i think it is only fair they should be exposed for the parasitic scum they are. Sandwellbeing are deliberately targeting the elderly and vulnerable. They announce themselves as calling from the "Health Centre". They chat away about general health issues, show friendly concern, until they find one to focus on and then pursue a large sale. They transfer calls between individuals which helps to build credibility and confuse the target. DO NOT use them. They are a truly insidious and invidious group.

The NHS in Nottingham issued warnings about Sanda in 2010:
http://www.lpc-online.org.uk/nottinghamshire_lpc/?news_id=2592
Bogus call to Nottingham City patient instructing them to stop taking their prescription medication, Message received from GP practice in Clifton :-
A company from India under the name Sanda Wellbeing who apparently ‘phone the patient up and advise the patient to stop taking their medication.If patient's raise similar concerns practices / pharmacies should ask patients to report this to the local police.
The PCT should be informed if further incidents do occur.

Kent Trading Standards have received reports of bogus callers telephoning consumers pretending to be from a local GP surgery. The caller gives the impression they are from the NHS and asks what medication the consumer is taking. In one incident the caller persuaded the consumer they would benefit from taking Pomegranate tablets, they took credit card details and debited £179.50 from the account. A victim's son traced the call back to a company based in India. No NHS health professional would ever ask for a patient's credit card details over the phone.
Kent Trading Standards are warning consumers to be very wary of anyone cold calling and requesting credit or debit card details. If you are in any doubt at all end the call. In your home, on your phone, you are in control - hang up.

it appears that, owing to the inquiry launched by the Kent Trading Standards, Sanda changed its address last year and filed for liquidation. They have been successful in this ploy and are now operating as Your Lifestyle Products Ltd .

Sanda even had their own facebook page which has been abandoned after people had posted such gems as "The head of Sanda, Ajit Patel was on trial for years, when he was the Chairman of Goldshield, for trying to defraud the NHS by millions."

The director of Sanda Wellbeing Ltd (later known as Natural Wellness Products Ltd), Ajit Patel, also has a magazine called "Your Wellness" (print and digital: http://issuu.com/yourwellness ), published by Yourwellness Publishing Ltd and if you have a subscription for it they may have used the details you gave them to call you.

The Man Friday of Mr. Ajit Patel is an Indian National,  Vijay Bhagwandas Dalwani, who apart from being a Director in Sanda Wellness is currently a Director in the following Companies :

Health Media Publishing Private Limited

Omatra Foundation
N Gage Marketing India Private Limited
Sanda Office Management Services Private Limited

Vijay Bhagwandas Dalwani is also the Chairman of the Indian company DNY Hospitality Pvt. Ltd and his family members are Directors. These people have no qualms about ruthlessly scamming elderly and vulnerable people - often those with dementia.

As per his Web site he claims to be some DJ with albums connected to his name, wonder where the funds were wired from.

Meeting employees working with such scam companies has also revealed the amount of funds the Directors have diverted to their family and their accounts for personal gain is incredible.

Further inquiries into the affairs of Sanda has revealed that the company has also evaded millions in taxes, both in the UK and in India and as a matter of fact there is a Police Complaint filed against the Indian subsidiary Sanda Wellbeing Pvt Ltd for Tax evasion which is presently being investigated by the M.I.D.C. Police Station, Mumbai, India under complaint number: MECR 17/2014.

Astounding as it may sound, Mr. Ajit Patel and his cronies have now ventured in the field of developing Digital Applications for Smart Phones and have developed an App named               “n-gage messenger”, which brags to be a world's first 360 degree lifestyle Chat app. The Developer address also being ; Suite 010, The Beehive, Beehive Ring Road, Nr Gatwick Airport RH6 0PA .  Please note that Vijay Bhagwandas Dalwani is a Director in N Gage Marketing India Private Limited.

With a proven history of blatant violations of the TPS and Data Protection guidelines and also Tax laws in the UK and India, how safe your personal data will be is anybody’s guess.

Beware , check credential, it would be an disaster , scam companies to have easy access to your phone and data.BEWARE.

Do not believe any of the positive comments here. They are posted by people working for Sanda trying to reduce the incidence of negative feedback appearing on Google. I encourage all of you who have experienced this scam to write here and expose these unscrupulous fraudsters.

...Yet another person who cannot speak proper English wanting personal details about me so I hung up immediately...

Have been pestered by a caller from this number on a number of occasions.  They sound foreign & are trying i think to sell medical products. I have told these people before that I am not interested

This number called but didn't leave any message on smartphone

Sick and tired of this number calling, they ask about your health problems and then try to sell you "Natural" remedies, when I said I would speak to my Dr first, as I had taken things in the past that had been recommended, and then told by my Dr I shouldn't be taking them, then the caller get cross and hangs up on me.

Who is caller? Area code not listed !

Getting Fed with this number keep ringing so answered to only have a very abrupt foreign man ask for someone and when told not here , he abruptly asked what  me what time are they due back and when told I do not know he slammed the phone down .Will not be answering this number again
