Got a call on my TPS-listed phone, didn't recognise the number and it sounded robotic, no message left and it never got past my screening. Blocked it straight away.

Got a call from a guy claiming his name was Kevin, said he was ringing from Domestic and General about some appliances. He had an ethnic accent, sounded dodgy to me. As soon as I told him he was a scammer, he just cut the call straight away. Proper scam attempt if you ask me.

I had a feeling it was dodgy from the number, but answered just to be sure. After a brief pause, I told them to "Talk," and they ended the call right away. Looked it up here and turned out to be a scam.

No voicemail left... Lately, I've been getting loads of calls from various numbers, but I never pick up. After looking them up on this site, it turns out they're appliance-related scams. Seems like they're faking UK numbers. A fun thing to try might be answering with something like "NCA... Inspector Smith speaking, what can I do for you?"

Got a call from some guy claiming to be from Mastercard, sounded like he was from Asia but I could barely understand a word. When I joked about him maybe trying a different job, he just cut the call straight away.

Got a call from someone claiming to be British Gas about our appliances. When I mentioned everything in the house runs on electricity, he insisted they still had control over them. I asked for info by letter and gave a bank sort code as a test. Once he realised I wasn't convinced, he suddenly ended the call - obvious scam.

Got a call from someone with an Indian accent trying to sell me insurance for my appliances. Total scam, just trying to rip people off.

I just got a ring from these lot, and they already had my name and where I live. The woman said her name was Susan, but I could tell from the chatter in the background she was defo a Gupta. I told her straight up that she’s got the wrong person and place, saying I was in prison, so she needed to pipe down. She ended the call quite rude after that.

Never saved this number and have no clue who it is, or where Barnsley even is. No voicemail or anything was left. After seeing other people's comments, I’ve just blocked it. Definitely looks like a SCAM to me.

Got a call from 01226661544, seemed really suspicious. No one actually talked to me, but I could hear loads of Indian voices chatting away in the background.

Had a call from someone with a really thick South Asian accent, asking if I'd gotten any paperwork from Domestic and General recently. Sussed it was a scam straight away, so I told them I already checked with D&G on their official number and there was no need to call me again. They didn’t bother to use my name or anything personal, and just hung up. These scammers never give up or switch tactics, do they?

Got a call on my home phone from this number, bloke said he was from Domestic and General. His accent was Indian and there was loads of noise in the background. He tried to sweet talk me with some 50% discount offer then asked me to confirm my bank details! When I kept probing, he insisted I chat to the manager, who suddenly switched to a fake English accent. I mentioned I’d report them for fraud as I wasn’t buying it and he just slammed down the phone. Watch out, these are proper scammers!

Got a call from a guy with an Indian accent, he was going on about some appliances, but it was really tough to get what he was saying. Strange thing is, the number showed up as a Barnsley code, but honestly, it felt more like one of those scam call centres from India. Quite fishy if you ask me.

I picked up the phone and the person already knew who I was, but they never told me their name. They just launched into talking about some survey or something. I ended the call pretty quick.

I got a message saying I’d missed a call from this number, but my phone never even buzzed. I was right next to it the whole time and there wasn’t any voicemail or anything. Weird!
