7 yearsAs soon as they realised I wasn’t picking up and got the machine instead, the person on the other end just ended the call.7 yearsGave me a bell today!7 yearsGot a call from someone with an Indian accent trying to sell me cheaper TV insurance - total scam, I've blocked the number now.7 yearsThis number keeps pestering my elderly mother. They've already managed to con her out of £90! When I tried to call the number back, it claimed to be an invalid number. Truly infuriating!7 yearsAs soon as I answered and started talking, the caller hung up on me. Won't be picking up that number ever again. Just a total waste of time. It's blocked now.7 yearsSome proper muppet, should just stay put in India with all the other scam artists like them.India7 yearsI received a call from someone with a foreign accent who rambled on about nuisance phone calls, claiming he’d send me a pack to sign and return, which would supposedly put an end to all the calls. When I asked if he could ring me back later as it was dreadfully early, he snapped back rather rudely, insisting he hadn’t finished his spiel and began to yell at me. I ended the call, only to be bombarded by another number moments later. The caller then taunted me, saying he hoped I’d continue to receive more harassing calls. As someone who isn’t particularly young, I found the entire experience quite intimidating. It’s high time these callers were dealt with.7 yearsKept getting calls from this number with someone speaking in an Indian accent, claiming they wanted to insure my Toshiba TV - which I don’t even own. Then another call came right after from 07931865589 with a very similar voice. Clearly just scammers trying to catch older folks out. We’ve had loads of calls like this before, where they pretend to be from the bank, saying your account’s been hacked but warning you not to visit your local branch because supposedly they’re involved. Totally dodgy.Toshiba TV7 yearsGot a call from a man with a foreign accent who said he could help block annoying calls if I gave him my bank card info. He already knew the first four digits, then asked me for the rest of the numbers along with the start and expiry dates. I rang my bank afterwards and they assured me my account hadn’t been compromised. I think this sort of trick could be really risky, especially for elderly folks.7 yearsNo response when I got back to them. Looked up the number here... definitely blocked now.7 yearsGot a call from a bloke with an Indian accent who said he was ringing about insurance on my TV. He claimed I was overpaying and offered a cheaper deal for the next three years. (If that’s the case, I’d love to see how much they want to charge). When he asked me the brand of my TV, I told him I’m on the TPS list and this was an unsolicited call - he just ended the call straight away.Telephone Preference Service7 yearsNo one spoke when I answered. Just silence on the other end.7 yearsNumber didnt show up on BT Call Guardian so I’m guessing it was either a scammer or some telesales place. Decided to block it just to be safe.BTGuardian7 yearsGot a call from an Indian-sounding woman claiming she could put an end to all those pesky unsolicited calls. So I cheekily asked if she was referring to calls like the one I just got from her. She sounded confused and asked me to explain, so I repeated whether she meant calls like hers. That's when she lost it, started being rude and ended the call with a bang!7 yearsI got a call from a woman with an Indian accent, who claimed she was from a company called UK Appliance. She said she was calling from Cardiff and assured me they would put a stop to all the unwanted calls I’ve been getting. Odd thing is, the number showed a Sheffield code. Then, just like that, she ended the call. Pretty strange.UK ApplianceCardiffSheffield7 yearsI had no clue who it was, they hung up as soon as I picked up. I've blocked the number now so they can't call again.7 yearsEvery time I picked up, all I got was silence from those pointless callers. Definitely not bothering to answer anymore.7 yearsGot a call about some TV warranty or insurance deal, sounded dodgy so I put a block on them.7 yearsI received a call from this number attempting to sell me a service to block cold calls for a fee of £2.50 a month, claiming they were from UK Appliances. I gave them a moment of my time to hear their pitch, but once I declined their offer, they decided to ring me again from a different number: 01395224268. It’s rather frustrating, to say the least!UK Appliances7 yearsIt was a scam, she claimed she was trying to stop me from annoying scammers and stuff. When I asked how she'd react if her own mum or grandma got tricked by someone like her, she got really angry!7 yearsAn overseas chap rang up claiming we had somehow overpaid for our television insurance and that we were eligible for a refund. The moment we mentioned we don't even have any TV insurance, he promptly ended the call. Quite odd!7 yearsGot a call from a guy with a weird accent claiming we'd paid too much for our TV insurance. As soon as I told him we don't even have any insurance on the TV, he just ended the call. Definitely sounded fishy to me.7 yearsGot a call from 01142447129 but they never left a message or anything.7 yearsGot a call from this number while we wasn’t home, no voicemail left. They’ve rung us loads, but every time, same thing - no message!7 yearsI got a call about the former owners of my house, but both of them have sadly passed away. The caller went on to try and sell me some nuisance protection service. After I kindly said no thanks, they hung up.7 yearsGot a call from a lady with an accent about my telly, but she used an old address I haven’t lived at for two years. Wonder what that was about!7 yearsGot a call from 0114 244 7129, no one said a word on the other end so I figured I'd look them up just in case. If they're ringing about some TV insurance stuff, I'd give it a miss. My telly’s ancient anyway and I’m pretty sure it’s already under my home insurance.7 yearsI’ve had two calls this week about TV maintenance, and I’m pretty sure the number was faked, likely from some overseas call centre. The first time, when I asked, they claimed they got my info from a survey. The second time, the moment I questioned them, they just hung up straight away.7 yearsGot a call about my TV maintenance costs being too high, said it was some kind of scam. This is the third time this week they've rung from a new number. I don't even have any maintenance contract, so I just blocked the number straight away.7 yearsAs soon as I told them my name, they just ended the call on me.7 yearsI just received a rather dodgy call from this so-called "company" that didn't bother to name themselves. They had the audacity to ask me for a monthly fee of £2.50 for a whole year, claiming they would protect me from pesky cold callers and fraudsters, even threatening to take legal action on my behalf! Honestly, it all sounds a bit fishy to me.7 yearsGot a call saying they were offering nuisance call protection, but when i questioned it, they just hung up on me.Submit Your Own Report (0114 244 7129)
