1 yearGot a call from some bloke about insulating the loft. Normally, I just tell them to jog on and block the number, but these lot are proper thick and keep ringing back, sometimes loads in a day. It really winds me up. Today, I tried something new and told them we don’t even have a loft. Not holding my breath, but hopefully that gets the message across. Still got them blocked though, ‘cause I doubt they’re smart enough to get it otherwise!1 yearI picked up the phone and there was this awkward pause before the person finally spoke, which always gets on my nerves. Then, in a thick Asian accent, they said, "I'm not trying to sell you anything." Well, great, 'cos I don't want any of that! Honestly, I do feel a bit sorry for those folks just wasting my time like this!1 yearGot a call from a woman with an Asian accent who claimed she was ringing about the warranty for my washing machine. Seemed dodgy to me since it didn’t really make sense. Probably a scam.1 yearThe person on the other end just cut off the call straight away. Sounds like one of those automatic scam calls that just drop you to try someone else.1 yearAfter a long pause, a woman with an Asian accent came on the line. She introduced herself as Grace and claimed she was ringing about a free loft insulation inspection. I quickly told her she was trying to scam me, which made her quite defensive as she insisted it really was a about a free check. I shot back, no it’s not. I also told her my number is registered with the TPS, which seemed to confuse her - clearly she’s not actually calling from the UK, or she’d know about it. I made it clear, don’t call me again!GracePreference1 yearI barely ever pick up my phone anymore because of all the scams going around! The moment my answer machine started talking, the call just hung up. Pretty annoying!1 yearGot a call from someone claiming to be from Home Star offering a free loft insulation check, but it felt fishy - definitely a scam to me.Home Star1 yearGot a call with not a single word said. Strange!1 yearI let it ring till my answer machine picked up, then they just hung up. Pretty sure it was one of those dodgy washing machine warranty scams.1 yearJust like the others, they kept talking about some washing machine issue, so I just ended the call.1 yearNo one answered when I picked up, just silence.1 yearGot a call this morning around eight. The guy said his name was Simon and that our washing machine warranty had run out. But we just replaced it a couple weeks ago, and it came with a year’s guarantee.Simon1 yearAs soon as I picked up the phone, they hung up. I've no-one I know living in Leicester.LeicesterSubmit Your Own Report (0116 507 9079)
