Reports on phone number 01164890017
2 monthsAbsolutely useless! The person on the phone never gave a proper introduction and refused to say why they were calling. They came across very dodgy, so I just hung up. It wasn't until I read other people's comments here that I figured out the call was probably related to Currys, where I did buy something not long ago. If this was meant to be customer support, it’s definitely the worst I’ve experienced by a mile. Feels more like some random company trying to push a useless add-on or service.Currys4 monthsGot a call from Currys today about an order I placed. They were just checking in to make sure everything was alright with my delivery. Seemed pretty straightforward and helpful, nothing pushy or anything. Definitely appreciated the update!Currys4 monthsLoads of folks are saying it’s from Currys, but I’m not convinced. When I rang the number back, there was no mention of Currys at all. The person on the line was pushing me to sign up for some care and repair plan and mentioned the day before I bought the product, which didn’t add up since they’re offering more choices now. Feels like a spam call to me!4 monthsSeeing all the comments about curry's made me realise it probably is them, since I actually ordered a few appliances earlier today.1 yearGot a call today from someone saying they're from Currys. They wanted to gather information to set up an insurance or care plan, even though I already have one sorted. I doubted them but they kept pushing and said they'd ring me back tomorrow. Of course, the number was blocked when I checked.Currys1 yearI got a call that sounded legit from Currys service team, checking when I’d be coming to pick up my order and what I’d need to bring along. They also chatted about insurance options for the item and explained what’s covered. I said no thanks, and they mentioned I could still sort it out in the shop when I collect it if I wanted. The person was nice enough and didn’t push for any personal info, but I reckon it’s safer to handle things face-to-face in the store anyway.Currys1 yearThis number just rang me up out of the blue. I’d ordered a gadget from Currys and now, after seeing what people say here, it sounds like they’re trying to sell insurance even though I clearly said no and opted out during checkout. I’ve marked it as spam and blocked it straight away because it’s obviously some sort of scam.Curry ' s1 yearJust to let everyone know, this is definitely Currys calling about insurance for a camera I recently got. I rang them up to double-check whether they were Currys or some outside company, and they said it was Currys themselves. I was trying to figure out if my info was being passed on to anyone else. I declined the insurance and they told me if I decide later, I can just pop into one of their stores to sort it out.Currys2 yearsEvery time I buy something off Currys online, I get these calls afterwards. I just don't pick up if the number isn't familiar. Later on, I'll look up the number here. They're pretty much always trying to push some insurance deal. If I wanted insurance, I would've added it when I placed the order. Bit irritating, but doesn't seem like a scam from what I can tell.Currys2 yearsGot two calls from this number trying to push insurance for stuff I bought online at Currys just a few days ago. They asked for my bank details to set up a direct debit right over the phone. When I asked them to send the insurance policy and direct debit form through email or post, they wouldn’t agree and said their manager would text me to confirm they were legit. I told them nicely I’d sort the insurance in store on my own and then ended the call.Currys2 yearsGot a call from Curry’s checking my delivery time and trying to sell me some warranty plans as well.Curry3 yearsDidn’t know the number so I just let it ring out. Saw some other folks mentioning similar things, and weirdly I was at Curry's just yesterday sorting out a return for a dodgy telly for me dad. Don’t think any of my details would’ve been in their system though. Maybe just a coincidence? Either way, if they ring again I’ll probably still ignore - got too much going on.Curry3 yearsGot a call from Curry’s just to check if I was picking up my order, nice and safe, didnt ask for any personal info.Curry3 yearsI missed the call earlier, so I reached out to Curries via their live chat. They informed me that it was indeed them trying to get in touch to verify the delivery details of my order.Curries3 yearsI missed the call initially, but after checking the details here, I decided to ring back. It turned out to be from Curry's. Coincidentally, I had recently made an order with them, so it felt quite valid!Curry3 yearsThey mentioned my name and then started rambling about curries. After that, they just disconnected the call. Quite strange, really. The whole thing had the feel of a call centre!3 yearsI’m not completely positive who it is but they just keep ringing me non stop.3 yearsI received a call from someone who claimed to be from Curry's. They provided information about my delivery without requesting any personal details or payment, which I found reassuring.Curry3 yearsGot two calls on my mobile from this number but didn’t pick up, so I looked it up here - feels like it could be a scam.4 yearsJust got a call from Curry's main office saying there’s a deal on stuff I bought just yesterday. Bit annoying!Curry4 yearsIt's from Curry's. I've placed an order, and they're just getting in touch to sort out the delivery details.Curry4 yearsI bought something from Currys online yesterday. A bloke rang me to check if I was happy with how everything went and asked if I wanted to add on care and repair cover. When I told him I’d already got a 3-year plan, he said sorry for bothering me. This has happened to me before - reckon their system doesn’t properly link the items bought with the warranties.Currys4 yearsJust got off the phone with Curry's customer service. Bought something from there recently but forgot to add on their Care insurance when I checked out. The person on the line was trying real hard to get me to buy the insurance now.Curry ' s4 yearsReceived a nuisance call, and the line was dead.4 yearsNot long ago, I had yet another call from this number - it’s the fifth time in under a fortnight. The first time I picked up, but the caller just disconnected. After a bit of digging online, I discovered there’s quite a bit of chatter about this number, so I’ve taken to ignoring it. Quite frankly, it’s becoming a right nuisance. It’s a bit frustrating as my old mobile doesn’t have the option to block pesky numbers. It's high time someone put a stop to these bothersome calls!4 yearsDefinite scam, watch out!4 yearsIts a bloody scam call, watch out!4 yearsCurrys customer service is really hit and miss.Currys4 yearsGot a call from a bloke saying he was from Curry’s. Problem is, I never gave them this number when I bought something from their website earlier this week. It felt dodgy, so I rang Curry’s myself and they told me they hadn’t called me at all. Definitely seemed like a scam.Curry4 yearsSomeone said they were from Currys but then started asking loads of personal info that Currys would already have. When I asked why they needed that, they just ended the call.Currys4 yearsGot a call from Currys, they told me what I'd ordered and double checked the day I'd be picking it up. They asked me to bring my email and the card I used when I paid along when I go to PC World, just to prove I was the one who paid. Didn’t ask for any personal info or anything. Seems like a fair enough thing to ask and I wouldn’t expect anything different really.CurrysPC World4 yearsNot sure who it was, didn’t pick up & the voicemail was silent, but like others have said, I did just make a purchase from Currys recently!Currys4 yearsThey told me they were calling from Currys.Currys4 yearsI received a message claiming that I had some outstanding debt that I needed to settle immediately.4 yearsHave no clue?4 yearsThey rang and asked if they were talking to -insert my husbands name-. I said no and offered to pass on a message but they just ended the call. Seems like a scam to me.4 yearsEarlier today, I bought an Apple Watch from Currys, and not long after it arrived, I received a rather suspicious call from 0116 489 0017. The caller enquired whether I was pleased with my new gadget and then attempted to sell me some sort of protection plan, which would cover repairs or a replacement if it were to malfunction - all for just a couple of quid a month! However, once I declined, the line went completely silent. Feeling rather uneasy about the whole thing, I took to the internet to investigate, only to find that others have experienced similar calls as well.Apple WatchCurrys4 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from Currys, but when I checked with Currys themselves, they told me it wasn’t their number. Definitely a scam.Curry5 yearsThey’ve called me a couple of times, but when I get to the answering machine to leave a message, they just hang up. If it's really Curry’s, since I bought something there not long ago, I’m not shocked - they never asked me in the shop if I wanted to add insurance. Curry’s or not, I’ve just gone ahead and blocked the number anyway.Curry5 yearsGot a call from Curry's asking about something I bought recently. They were trying to offer me a warranty, but I didn’t even realise the item had arrived yet.Currys5 yearsI had an odd experience recently with Currys. They requested my credit card information before offering a repair service for something I purchased. To be honest, the whole interaction had a distinctly dodgy vibe, and I immediately sensed it was a scam. The manner in which they communicated was quite shoddy and unpolished, raising all sorts of red flags for me.Currys5 yearsIt's definitely a scam, I bought something from Currys and then got a call from a bloke asking me to repeat the card details I used to pay. I told him I paid cash in the shop and he just ended the call. Sounds like Currys or someone who got hold of the sale info was just trying their luck.Curry5 yearsReceived a call inquiring whether I was a fan of curries and fine leather garments before abruptly ending the conversation. Quite odd, really!5 yearsRight after I ended the call I jumped on Curry's webchat to check, and it turns out it really was them calling. I gave the person the name and number, and they confirmed it’s definitely from Curry’s. Nothing dodgy about it.Curry ' s5 yearsYeah, I keep getting calls from Currys PC World. Not sure if it’s legit or just annoying telemarketers.PC World5 yearsA chap called, asked if he was speaking to (my first name). I confirmed it was indeed me, and then he rather abruptly ended the call. Odd, isn’t it?5 yearsThey said they were from Currys and tried to get me to give security info.Curry5 yearsYeah, that call is definitely from Currys.Currys5 yearsI reckon this is probably Currys too, as I ordered something off their website just a day before. But ringing up outta the blue and asking for your full name and address? That’s just totally not on.Currys5 yearsThis number rang me and as soon as I answered with a hello, they just ended the call straight away.5 yearsA caller said they were ringing from Currys PC World. They had my first name and phone number but asked me to confirm my address before going any further, which I wouldn't do. They said it was about a delivery, but I'm actually picking up in-store. They came across as quite polite and weren't at all pushy. They even mentioned they get scam calls too and understood why I was cautious.Currys PC World5 yearsI got a legit call from Curry’s/PCWorld recently. I bought a laptop for a mate and they phoned to let me know it’s on its way. They did ask if I wanted insurance, but since it was for my mate who’s not great with online stuff, I couldn’t decide right then. The person on the phone was really nice and didn’t push me about the insurance, just nice and helpful. The laptop’s due tomorrow, only took two days to get here. Pretty happy with how quick and easy it all was.CurryPC World5 yearsThey cut off right after I answered.5 yearsGot a call from 01164890017, and as soon as I said hello, they just hung up. These calls are so irritating and honestly just a pain.5 yearsYeah, sounded quite nice actually. They said they were from Curry's PC World and chatted with me about aftercare and quickly knew what I'd bought. Don't really reckon it's a scam, but getting calls like that out of the blue when you can just check things online feels a bit odd.Curry5 yearsI bought something from Currys and it was delivered alright. Shortly after, I got a call from this number but my phone blocked it ‘cause it was unknown. Looking at the other comments, I reckon it’s probably Currys ringing to offer aftercare plans for the stuff you bought.Currys5 yearsProbably one of those dodgy home delivery scams. Watch out!5 yearsA caller claimed to be from Currys tech support but ended the call after a few seconds. They knew my name but said they couldn’t hear me properly and then just hung up.Currys5 years01164890017 called me pretending to be from Currys PC World about a cooker delivery I supposedly ordered. They already had my address and phone number, but insisted they needed me to confirm these details for security reasons before continuing. When I asked what the call was really about, they said it was to discuss delivery details. I asked again because I already knew everything about the delivery, and they then said they couldn't continue unless I gave them my info. I ended the call right there.Currys PC World5 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from Currys PC World, asking about a recent order and if I wanted aftercare. Told them I was busy and would sort it online or call back later, but they said I couldn’t do it online and offered to ring me again at a better time. Then they kept pressing, asking when I’d be available to chat, felt a bit too pushy for my liking.Currys PC World5 yearsThey were acting like they were from Currys PC World but kept pushing me to buy some aftercare plan. Then they started asking if I was collecting the product from the shop or getting it delivered, and whether I’d be using a car to pick it up. Also asked if I was fixing a faulty item or not. All these odd questions made no sense together. It set off alarm bells and I knew right away it was a scam.Currys PC World5 yearsThey keep ringing me but I just dont pick up because of the bad reviews ive seen.5 yearsLooked dodgy, didnt bother callin back.5 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be Currys, total scam likely.Currys5 yearssomeone called saying they were from currys, wanting to check on a delivery i’d apparently made recently - which was right. i only gave just enough info to prove it was me. then they tried to offer some aftercare plan, but backed off when i said no. still makes me think it was dodgy though.Currys5 yearsJust got a call from currys aftersales team checking in about something I bought recently.Currys6 yearsi picked up and said hello. i could hear soft breathing, then silence before they just ended the call without saying anything. no sorry or anything like that for calling the wrong number. really annoying call.6 yearscalled back but no reply after saying hello6 yearsAs soon as I said “hi,” the person on the other end just hung up.6 yearsanswered the phone and a bloke was on the other end asking for my full name and address. i asked who he was but he just stayed silent, so i said i wasn’t giving out my details and then he just hung up. really odd call, anyone have any idea who it might have been?6 yearsGot a call from Currys pc world about my delivery details.
