Someone called me saying they can get me free national small business loans. Is this legitimate?

No, anyone who calls you unsolicited and tells you they can get you free national small business loans is not a legitimate small business. This is because loans, be they from the United Kingdom national small business funds or otherwise, are by definition money that is given under the terms that it be repaid, often with interest. Something that needs to be repaid, at the very least, is not free and thus cannot be offered to you.
