01163930296 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01163930296 👆 is reported as a persistent boiler and heating cover scam, where callers often use convincing personal details to offer fake insurance or discounts. Callers are frequently unidentifiable, sometimes with Asian or other accents, and may hang up when questioned. Many report silent or no-message calls, recorded messages, or repeated calls urging for bank details. The scam falsely claims association with legitimate firms and may use spoofed numbers. Victims report that genuine providers confirm these calls are fraudulent. The public is strongly advised to avoid sharing personal or financial information, hang up suspicious calls, and report attempts promptly via official police channels such as Action Fraud to aid investigations and reduce scam prevalence. Blocking numbers alone is ineffective due to call spoofing.

2 yearsGot a dodgy phone call, total scam.4 yearsThis number tried to sell me boiler insurance but it was a total scam. If you get a call from them, definitely report it to the police. The best thing is to head over to the UK police’s fraud reporting website called Action Fraud. Just search ‘action fraud’ on Google, then find the phishing report section and scroll right down to the end to fill in a quick form. All these scam numbers need to be reported so they can track ’em properly.UK4 yearsThe call went to my voicemail since I didn’t know the number, but they just ended up hanging up.4 yearsGot a call from an Asian lady about my boiler and central heating, but it felt fishy - definitely a scam.4 yearsI think it was one of those dodgy calls from a Heating Services company trying to trick me.Heating Services4 yearsAnswered the phone and it immediately seemed like a call centre on the other end. I just hung up straight away. I'm so tired of all these scam calls.4 yearsGot a call saying my policy’s direct debit had gone down. I have no idea what policy they’re even talking about. I just hung up. Watch out for these dodgy calls.4 yearsDefinitely a scam, nothing to do with boilers!4 yearsI got a call from 01163930296 on my landline.

Definitely felt a bit dodgy to me.4 yearsI got a call about my boiler cover, which I've already got, but things got iffy when he started asking for my direct debit details. Watch out, this one sounds like a proper scam and pretty convincing too.4 yearsGot a guy on the phone acting like there’s been no claim on our boiler insurance for the past 8 months, yet he wouldn’t say who he was actually calling from. He obviously had no clue about the person on the other end or if we even had that cover. Feels like a dodgy scam trying to fake cover details or maybe fishing for our personal info and bank details.4 yearsI got a call from a woman speaking with an Aussie accent. She was asking if I had cover on my boiler, which is weird because we don’t even own one!4 yearsI tried to find out who it was, but as soon as I asked, the caller just cut the line.4 yearsI got a call from a woman saying I qualified for a discount on my boiler and heating plan because I hadn’t claimed anything yet. I politely told her I wasn’t interested in their deal and there was no way I’d be spending £24 monthly on it.4 yearsI was certain it was a scam after I called Domestic & General, since we just got a repair and care plan with them recently. They told me the call wasn’t connected to their company at all!Domestic & General4 yearsGot a call from a polite lady talking about some “appliance cover”. She said she’d ring me back, but I haven’t heard since, been out of town anyway. Pretty sure it was one of those phishing scams.4 yearsI just got an answer machine instead, so I ended the call.4 yearsGot a call from 01163930296 earlier today, but the person didn’t say who they were or leave any message. Definitely suspicious. I’ve blocked the number now.4 yearsGot a call from 01163930296 on my landline about renewing boiler cover. I knew straight away it was a scam, told them off and hung up. Be careful, don’t get caught out by these boiler cover scams.4 yearsI got a call about boiler cover where they said they could lower my monthly payments. But when they asked for my bank sort code, I just ended the call. I rang up British Gas afterwards to tell them, and they said I'd be the second person to complain about it that day. Sounds pretty convincing, especially if you already have boiler cover like I do.British Gas4 yearsGot a call today and they left a voicemail about some "home appliance cover" offer. After reading some of the posts on here, I’m not falling for it. Thanks for the heads up, you’re doing a great job!4 yearsGot a call from 01163930296 about boiler cover, but they refused to say which company they were from. I just hung up straight away.4 yearsThey've been ringing me daily all week, always with a posh sounding lady leaving the identical message. I never catch the company's name, just something like "we'll get back to you tomorrow" - and sure enough, they do! Tried ringing them back though, and guess what? The number's not accepting calls right now! Pretty clear scam to me 😤4 yearsGot a call earlier and they left a voicemail about some "home appliance cover" thing. Luckily, after reading up here, I’m well prepared for their sales spiel. Cheers for the info, really helpful! Keep it going!Bravo4 yearsReceived a dodgy call about boiler upkeep, where they dangled the prospect of a discount but insisted it required the Manager’s approval. Once they transferred me to this so-called Manager, he began probing for my bank details, claiming it was part of the confirmation process. They had a fair amount of accurate information, which gave them a veneer of credibility. However, as my policy isn’t due for renewal just yet, I quickly realised it was a scam and told them as much-then they promptly disconnected the line.4 yearsGot a call from an automated voice on 22nd Dec 2022, trying to sell me appliance insurance. I don’t even have any appliances covered. Total spam.4 yearsGot a call about my boiler, told the guy I don’t have one and he just ended the call straight away. Definitely a scam.4 yearsGot a voicemail from a well-spoken lady about some appliance cover I never signed up for. She said she’d ring back, but it’s pretty clear this was just a scam.4 yearsThere was a lot of background noise, so I couldn’t quite hear the company name. The guy mentioned it was regarding boiler insurance. I told him my husband looks after that and that we’re already with British Gas. He was very polite and said goodbye without any fuss.British Gas4 yearsGot a voicemail about some kind of appliance insurance, sounded like a total scam to me.4 yearsJust a heads up, there's a scam going around pretending to be boiler insurance. Watch out for it!4 yearsToday I got a call from someone claiming to be with Newton Services, asking for my mum. Told them she passed away back in 2008. When I told her how upsetting that was, she just said she didn’t really understand. Gave her a proper piece of my mind afterwards.Newton Services4 yearsNo one spoke when I answered, just silence on the other end.4 yearsThis phone call seemed like one of those dodgy boiler scams. Definitely didn’t feel right at all.4 yearsGot a vague voicemail about some insurance thing but couldn’t really catch the details. She mentioned she’d ring back the next day. Just checked and the number’s now been diverted after seeing what others have said here.4 yearsGot a call about some boiler insurance I don’t even need since we heat our place with a range. There was loads of noise in the background, sounded like an Indian call centre buzzing away. When I asked the company name a few times, it came out so fast I couldn’t catch it properly. I then asked for the caller's name, for him to spell out the company, and to give me a callback number. He tried to dodge the questions but I kept pushing, then he just ended the call.India4 yearsScam related to boilers.4 yearsGot a call saying they were from my boiler service, but I’ve never even booked one - total scam!4 yearsGot a call from some power dialler, but they just went quiet on me. Pretty annoying.4 yearsGot a voicemail from a polite woman claiming it was about my home appliance insurance, which I’ve never even signed up for. This isn’t the first time I’ve had a call like this. Looks like it’s probably another scam to me. Missed the call but left a message nonetheless.4 yearsThe operator told me to ring some guardian or whatever, but I wasn’t about to share any info. Never even got a ring at my place. After reading through all the reviews, it honestly seems like a total scam. I’m just gonna block the number now.Guardian4 yearsGot a call about my boiler insurance renewal, but it was just a load of rubbish. These people are complete scammers, trying to trick you into handing over your bank info so they can take your cash. I blocked the number straight away. Looks like just another dodgy call from some overseas scam crew. Avoid at all costs!4 yearsGot a call with no voicemail, checked the number and nope, didn’t seem legit. Straight to blocked!4 yearsGot a call from 0116 393 0296 yesterday afternoon. They asked if Mrs X was there and said it was about my boiler cover expiring. I told them it was a scam since we don’t have any boiler coverage - we actually turned the heating off altogether and have been shivering around the house in jumpers and coats because the gas bills are just too pricey!. X4 yearsSomebody rang me today looking for the old tenant who moved out ages ago, like 16 years back or something. When I asked what they wanted, they said it was about my boiler. Definitely a dodgy call.4 yearsGot a call from some bloke saying I needed insurance for my boiler. He already had my name and postcode, which was a bit creepy. I just told him I'm not interested and hung up straight away.4 yearsKeeps ringing about some boiler protection. Called me up two times over a couple days trying to chat about boiler cover, but I don't even have one. Bit annoying really.4 yearsGot a call on 14th December 2022 about some boiler and central heating coverage we supposedly had, which we don’t. The bloke claimed he was from a company named Heating Services over in Brighton, but wouldn’t give me any number to ring back on. As soon as he saw I wasn’t buying it, he just cut me off. Definitely felt dodgy to me.Heating ServicesBrighton4 yearsI’ve had calls from 01163930296 three times within just a couple of days now.4 yearsJust got a dodgy text about some home appliance insurance. Looks like a total scam to me, trying to get people to sign up for something fake. Watch out and don’t fall for it!4 yearsSo, I was waiting for a British Gas engineer to fix my heating like we sorted out yesterday, when at about 12:10 pm I got a call from 0116 3930 296. The caller told me I needed to pay £4.99 for the service. When I questioned who they were, they just said some private agents. It felt dodgy straight away, so I ended the call. Later I looked up the number online and turns out it was a scam.4 yearsGot a call from a number I didn't recognise. My mum, who’s 90, ended up giving them her bank info. They claimed to be from British Gas and said they were enquiring about her gas direct debit. Pretty worrying stuff.British Gas4 yearsGot a call from some boiler cover people who wouldn't give up. I said I only handle things through email and asked them to send the details over. After that, I told the woman to buzz off and she just hung up on me.4 yearsSome bloke rang up trying to sell me boiler insurance, which I don't have. I told him straight that I wasn’t daft and to stop messing me about. Then he just hung up.4 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Asian accent asking about Boiler Cover. I told her I was already happy with my current provider. She claimed she knew that already, but I didn’t buy it and just said no again when she tried to chat more. I ended the call and later used this website to see where the number came from.Boiler Cover4 yearsGot a call from a woman trying to sell me boiler insurance.4 yearsGot a phone call from some bloke trying to sell me boiler cover and he immediately asked for my bank info. Clearly a dodgy scam, watch out!4 yearsHonestly, I wouldn’t waste time paying attention to these lot - they clearly haven’t got a clue about how the company really operates.4 yearsI got a call from 01163930296, and the person claimed to be from some Heating Services trying to give me a discount on my boiler service. Pretty clear to me that it was a scam. I just said thanks but no thanks, then quickly ended the call!Heating Services4 yearsAfter seeing what others said, I’ve gone ahead and blocked this number. Cheers for the heads-up!4 yearsGot an automated voice on my answerphone about some home appliance insurance, saying they’d ring back the next day. The lady’s voice actually sounds like a real person and even called me by my first name, which threw me off at first. But I compared it to a message from October, same voice, different number though - 0113 330 8728 - and that number has loads of scam alerts online. Looks like they’re faking real company numbers to make it seem legit.4 yearsA bloke called saying I’d won a no claims discount for my boiler insurance which they bill monthly. I told him I don’t have any boiler insurance or pay anything by direct debit and wasn’t even aware of their firm, so I just hung up. He somehow had my full name, address and loads of other info about me!4 yearsI’ve had enough of this! It's a pesky spam call.4 yearsI had a rather dodgy call from someone claiming to be Adam Watkins, talking about boiler cover. When I pressed him for more details, he suddenly hung up.

Figured it was a dodgy call, told them so and then just ended the call.4 yearsIt's a total scam, I'd stay well clear.4 yearsGot a call from 01163930296 claiming to be a Boiler Advisor from Nationwide Energy Advisors or summat like that. Weirdly, he never mentioned the company at first, so I had to ask. He told me my boiler and central heating cover was about to expire - but lucky for me, I had my local engineer round less than a fortnight ago to service everything. I’m pretty clued up on spotting dodgy calls, and honestly, these scam attempts are just getting ridiculous trying to con people out of money illegally.Nationwide Energy4 yearsGot a call from someone called “Emily” about a discount on boiler cover - seemed like a total scam to me.Emily4 yearsThey left a voicemail while I wasn’t home and said they’d ring me back the next day. After seeing what others wrote, I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number, so they won’t be getting through to me again.4 yearsLooks like it might be one of those dodgy central heating scams.4 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to offer a discount on my boiler service, then they quickly started asking for my bank info and sort code. I just told them to get lost.4 yearsI got a call from a bloke who asked if my heating was alright. As soon as I said it was, he just ended the call without another word.4 yearsGot a call from someone trying to tell me my boiler cover was up for renewal. Problem is, I don’t even have a boiler! Definitely a scam, watch out.4 yearsGot a call from a woman asking if we wanted boiler insurance. Just another annoying telemarketer!4 yearsGot a call from a woman asking if I owned a house and said I hadn’t made any claims on my boiler insurance. She then started talking about renewing the policy, but I don’t have one at all. Ended the call straight away and blocked the number. Definitely a boiler scam.4 yearsBeware of fake boiler warranty calls. Just blocked them!4 yearsGot a call from an Asian guy named Norman about some discount on boiler insurance, said I could get a cheaper rate. Nearly got fooled since we actually have British Gas cover already. But the moment he asked for my bank info, I realised it was dodgy and ended the call. He rang me like 4 more times after that. Don't get how these people sleep at night. What freaked me out was he knew my name, address and even which bank I use. Watch out for this lot!NormanBritish Gas4 yearsHeads up, this one’s not legit at all. It kicked off around mid-December and it’s clear they’ve either nicked or purchased a database full of personal info - names, phone numbers, addresses, the lot. From what I gather, it’s run by some guy who used to work for the GPO (Royal Mail), so maybe they’re trying to look legit but don’t be fooled.Royal Mail4 yearsEvery comment here about boiler cover matches up with a call I just got, only mine was from a bloke this time! I fed him a few fibs and he just swallowed them whole like they were gospel! He totally walked straight into the trap I set! Proper scam if you ask me!4 yearsThese dodgy callers are definitely fishing from some list filled with random names and numbers.4 yearsGot a call on my home phone this morning at about 11.33am. Luckily, my call blocker stopped it from ringing through. Reading what others have said, sounds like it might be one of those boiler service scams. If that's true, then it's a pointless call anyway. Since it's the first time I've seen this number, I'm gonna give it a neutral rating for now.4 yearsGot a call about boiler insurance on my number which is registered with the TPS. Seems dodgy to me, I reckon any legit company wouldn't be phoning up like that. Probably just a scam.TPS4 yearsJust a heads up, anyone mentioning boiler insurance? It sounds dodgy to me, like a total scam. Be careful!4 yearsGot a call from 01163930296 about some cheaper gas cover. The caller was hard to follow and sounded a bit dodgy, really not sure if it’s legit or a scam.4 yearsI got a call from someone saying something about Nationwide, something to do with my boiler I think. They mentioned if I hadn’t made a claim this year, I’d get a 35% discount next year. Thing is, I’ve never even heard of Nationwide for my boiler, so I just hung up. After looking it up here, I’m really pleased I didn’t carry on talking to them. Cheers for the heads up!!Nationwide4 yearsGot a call from someone pushing boiler insurance, but they were super hard to deal with. Said they'd post me some details, so now I just have to wait and see if anything actually comes through. Can't say I'm looking forward to it.4 yearsGot a call from some random company saying they wanted to verify my boiler insurance! Felt really dodgy.4 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with my boiler insurance and that my details were shared by the company. Total scam though, I’ve never even signed up for boiler cover!4 yearsI just got a call about my boiler cover, but I don’t actually have any. Pretty sure it’s a scam.4 yearsGot a call about some gas boiler insurance refund. When i asked what company she was ringing from, she just went with "Gas boiler." Typical kind of scam, watch out, probably some common Asian scammers.4 yearsHad three calls back to back from different numbers but the bloke all sounded Indian and very similar. Ended up just hanging up while he was still rambling on.4 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Asian accent who somehow already knew my last name. She claimed it had been a year since anyone checked my heating boiler. Thing is, I haven’t got any kind of service contract with a company, so it just felt like a scam to me.4 yearsGot a call about a cheaper boiler cover deal, but I told the guy I don’t even have a boiler. I mentioned I’m with British Gas for my home cover, and he said that’s exactly what he’s talking about and offered me a discount. It felt really dodgy. When I wouldn’t give my bank details, he got all annoyed and said he'd speak to his manager and ring me back. Definitely seems like a scam - watch out!British Gas4 yearsGot a call from a woman speaking with an Asian accent, she claimed it was about my central heating and boiler insurance. She already had my name and postcode, which was a bit unsettling. Since I don't actually have that insurance, I just ended the call right away.4 yearsGot a voicemail about some home appliance insurance or something like that. Sounded like those automated calls you get, probably trying to sell me something. Definitely not picking up if they ring back.4 yearsSomeone rang me about some boiler insurance, but it was all a bit confusing. I told them to just send me the details in writing, but they weren't really interested. Ended up just hanging up on them.4 yearsThis morning, a lady with an Asian accent called me trying to sell a cheaper monthly direct debit for my boiler. When I pointed out that the postcode she had was for a house I haven’t lived in for 17 years, she just said it didn’t matter and I still needed the cover. We went back and forth quite a bit before she finally gave up, ending the call with “Have a nice day!” She claimed to be working for a firm based in Manchester but the number showed up as Leicester. Just another one of those dodgy calls I get all the time now.ManchesterLeicester4 yearsGot a call from someone saying I’m owed money for a heating contract I never even signed up for, something to do with my gas boiler. They even mentioned my own name and address, which was a bit creepy. Felt like they were just trying to fish for my bank info.
