Reports on phone number 01227620808
9 yearsThey ring me roughly every week, always asking for someone else or claiming to be from some insurance firm. I've just blocked the number now.9 yearsi went ahead and blocked that number now9 yearsIt’s obvious this is a scam. They ring me every day, and whenever I block one number, they just use a different one. The script is always the same - a bloke or a woman claiming they’re from the company that supposedly covers my washing machine insurance. Every single time I tell them I don’t have any insurance, and they just cut me off straight away. Can’t imagine how they sleep at night, trying to trick someone dumb enough to fall for this nonsense.9 yearsGot two calls from this number today. I didn’t pick up, but after doing a bit of digging, it seems dodgy. I reckon it’s a scam.9 yearsWow, just a heads up!!! This is a TOTAL SCAM!!! They somehow found out about a product I bought this year. The caller claimed it was out of warranty, then started calling me names. Seriously, don’t answer if they ring you!9 yearsSome bloke called me about insurance for a washing machine I don't even own. I said, "Are you sure?" and he just dropped the call. Total muppets.9 yearsGot a silent call on my mobile today. After seeing other comments, it’s worrying coz I got a call just yesterday from a totally different number with the Kidderminster area code. I actually answered and spoke with a nice young woman from D&G who promised to take my number off their list. That number ended up blocked to be safe, and now I’ve blocked this one as well.KidderminsterD & G9 yearsAbsolute tossers!9 yearsThis number rang me on Friday so I looked it up here and blocked it. Now it’s called me again. How is this even possible?9 yearssome bloke rang me today offering washing machine insurance, let him go on a bit then i told him nah that’s my dad’s job not mine, he just hung up straight away, now he’s blocked.9 yearsUtterly frustrating calls! No one ever engages in conversation, so I've taken to jotting down these numbers and simply ignoring them. I've compiled a roster of these pesky contacts.9 yearsI get about 2 or 3 calls daily on my mobile and the same amount on my landline, but when I answer there's no one there. This has been happening for weeks until I found this post and decided to block the number.9 yearsFrom what I’ve read here, the TPS really ought to be going after this offender.TPS9 yearsI usually pick up but say nothing at all. Most times I just answer and shove the phone in my pocket, lettin them jabber away. If I’m not busy, I might even do some loud, weird breathing. If they wanna waste my time, I’ll make sure to do the same to them. Also, giving a sharp whistle is pretty hilarious - apparently it’s brutal to hear with headphones on. Go on, have a laugh with these dodgy scam callers and make em sit through it!9 yearsReceived a call regarding some kind of protection plan for my washing machine, claiming it had lapsed and needed renewal for £7.60 a month. I declined the offer and ended the call immediately. Seems like a dodgy scam to me - definitely don’t share your debit card info! Pleased I didn't fall for it.9 yearsJust got a call about my washing machine insurance, they said since I’ve had it for 5 years without a claim, my payment was being dropped by £2.00. Then they asked if I still lived at my address, which I did, and if I wanted the money taken from my account. When I said yes, they asked me to confirm my sort code. I said they should already have it, but they said they needed to check with me. I told them I didn’t have the details on me and asked if they could ring me back when it was easier. Then I asked if they could send me a letter with all the info and they just hung up on me. Strange!9 yearseverytime i pick up they just cut the call so ive blocked the number now9 yearsThey called asking about d and g insurance renewal. As soon as I started asking questions, they just hung up. I already have d & g insurance so didnt think much of it till they cut the call. Feels like they want something reported or tracked.D & G9 yearsReceived a call this afternoon from someone claiming to be with D.A.G, saying my washing machine insurance was due for renewal. When I informed him that I'd actually cancelled it, he just abruptly ended the conversation! Quite rude, really.D. A. G9 yearsGot a call from some scammers trying to sell me 'washing machine insurance renewal' - total muppets. They really didn’t like me calling them daft tossers.9 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be with D&G saying my washing machine warranty was about to expire. Told them I didn’t have any warranty at all and they just ended the call straight away.D & G9 yearsThis number keeps ringing me every week, but since I was driving I didn't pick up and there’s never any voicemail. Just looked it up and found out it’s a scam, so I’m gonna block it now.9 yearsGot a call claiming my washing machine insurance needed renewing. When I said to cancel 'cause it was too pricey, bloke just hung up on me. Told my bank just in case they try to take money out.9 yearssimilar to before, the guy asked for me by my name and said it was about renewing my machine payments, but he hung up as soon as i asked questions. i dont have any payments due.9 yearsJust like last time. The bloke got my name and address spot on, said he was from something like D & G about my washing machine insurance running out soon. When I asked more about the insurance, he just ended the call.D & G9 yearsReally believable scammer, was asking for bank stuff and all sorts of personal info.9 yearsHad a few missed calls from this number in the last couple weeks. Finally picked up today and they were asking for someone I havent gone by in ages. Told them straight up it wasnt me and they just ended the call right away. I looked up the number before here but didnt block it at the time. Pretty clear these are scams so Ive blocked it now.9 yearsA bloke rang me and used my last name, so I answered. He claimed to be from some firm about insurance for the washing machine at my place, so I kept listening. Just as I was about to ask for more info and tell him to speak to my mum, he put the phone down. I tried calling the number back right away but it just kept ringing busy.9 yearsI asked for their name, but as soon as i said yes, they just ended the call. Seems like a proper call centre to me.9 yearsThis number keeps ringing me! They said my name but totally butchered the pronunciation! I was straight on to them! Did a quick lookup of the number too. They kept saying something like "we’re coming for you" - bit daft I suppose, but I’m feeling rubbish with the man flu and a bit irritable! Just wanted to scare them back, haha! Oh well!9 yearsThey've rang me loads of times, always rude and pushy. FYI, your sort code and account number don’t actually matter and can’t be used to scam you!! They try to talk over you, and when I asked if my paperwork had been sent, they just hung up on me. Proper SCAMMERS.9 yearsComplete rip off, don’t trust a word he says.9 yearsTelemarketing call9 yearsAbsolutely dodgy! I’ve got to mention, this is nothing but a con job. Seriously, watch your back!9 yearsSomeone called asking for me but got my title wrong straight away. I guessed it was dodgy when they mentioned something about washing machine insurance (which I don’t have). When I asked "what washing machine insurance?" they just ended the call. Such nuisance as I was just putting my grandad to bed and the phone disturbed him. I’ve blocked them now.9 yearsThis number just rang me and I was a bit confused as I only just got a new washing machine today after mine broke down on Sunday! For a second I thought I’d messed up and wasted dosh on the new one when I might have had insurance. The guy asked what make it was and I said Hotpoint, they got that right. Then he just suddenly hung up! Proper glad I looked them up here first, nearly fell for it!9 yearsI got a call from this number asserting they provided insurance for my washing machine. They pretended to be from DAG over in Brighton, but their number was actually a Canterbury one! When I pressed them for more information, they mentioned I'd signed up for a maintenance contract for £11 at the start of each month. But as soon as I started to ask more questions, they abruptly cut the line!DAGBrightonCanterbury9 yearsJust like the others said, they dropped the call as soon as I started asking questions.9 yearsThey rang me this morning, same story as everyone else here. I was a bit freaked out they knew my name and where I live. I told them I don’t hold any policy with them and then they just ended the call.9 yearsJust like the others, total SCAM!9 yearsI've had quite a few calls recently, not sure how many people actually fall for it though. Seems like only the ones who aren't very quick to spot what's really going on end up losing anything? Total rubbish if you ask me!!9 yearsThey rang me up about some washing machine, but when i asked which one they got really rude and just ended the call on me.9 yearsGot a call earlier today from someone about a washing machine warranty. They already knew my name and where I live, but I had a bad feeling and ended the call quick sharp. Definitely looks like a scam.9 yearsJust like others said, they rang about washing machine insurance and then cut me off! Total scam!9 yearsHad a call from some call centre bloke who didn’t even say his name. When I asked who he was, he snapped back saying "You’re just messing about and wasting my time, time’s money mate... I’m not getting paid by you, you’re just wasting my time." Then he just cut me off. Proper weird behaviour.9 yearsGot a call today on my mobile, they already knew my name and where I live. They started asking about washing machine insurance, but when I asked what they wanted, the caller just ended the call. I don’t even have insurance on a washing machine.9 yearsTotally a scam, they called askin about some washing machine insurance which I don’t even have. Bloody pests.9 yearsJust like others have mentioned, the caller claimed to be from D&G saying my washing machine insurance had lapsed. It nearly caught me out since I had a similar policy with them years ago and still have some items insured through them. Although it was a bit of a pain, I appreciated that he waited quite a while while I dug out the details, and once I told him the cover hadn’t been renewed for ages, he hung up.D & G9 yearsGot a call today about my washing machine warranty which immediately made me wary. As soon as I began probing a bit more, they cut the call abruptly. I've put in a report with 'Action Fraud' https://actionfraud.police.uk/ and I'd recommend anyone else who's got a dodgy feeling about it do likewise.Action Fraud9 years01227620808 has rung me 4 times over the past couple of days about renewing my washing machine warranty with D @ G. Since I'm a client of [email protected], I wasn’t sure and said I’d have a look once I got back home. They just ended the call. Today they’ve called 3 times more and just won’t give up.D & G9 yearsBogus warranty scam, sorry, meant to say scam.9 yearsGot a call from this number saying my washing machine warranty had expired and trying to sell me a renewal. Told them I never even bought an extended warranty and they just went quiet and hung up. Total scammers 012276208089 yearsGot three calls today about a washing machine warranty ending after 12 months. I told them I didn’t think I had one since my machine’s already two years old! Then they started babbling about giving me a free month for being a loyal customer and the warranty would restart from 1st January. I said I wasn’t interested in renewing and they just hung up on me! Totally feels like a scam to me!!!9 yearsGot a call from this number today, twice actually, saying they were from D&G. A woman asked if I wanted to renew my washing machine warranty, then started asking me to verify some details that weren’t even mine. I had a feeling it was suspicious, so I told her to stop and just ended the call. Have blocked the number since.D & G9 yearsTotal scam, they just cut off.9 yearsI received a call regarding the warranty for some white goods that is set to expire shortly. When I mentioned that the items weren't registered in my name, the caller went a bit silent and then inquired if it was my parent's name, requesting their phone number. I sensed something off and decided to end the conversation. (The machine is actually under my husband's name.) They've tried reaching out again, but I've chosen to block their number. It’s possible they’re legitimate, but I can’t quite grasp how they would have my details linked to it.9 yearsSomeone said they were from D&G and wanted my bank info. I told them if they gave me their details first, I’d check if it was actually them. They just hung up. Watch out folks!D & G9 yearsGot a call from D & G saying my washing machine warranty was up for renewal at a place I moved out of ages ago. Straight away, it felt dodgy since I don’t even own a washing machine, it was handed down to me by a relative who didn’t need it anymore. When I told them I never paid for any cover, the bloke just cut me off right away. Blocked the number after that.D & G9 yearsThese scam calls just keep coming and never stop.9 yearsJust got a call from someone saying they were from domestic & general insurance. Everything seemed fine at first until they asked for my bank info. I told them to keep using the details they already have on file. They kept saying I had to update the details. I asked them to send me a letter instead, but they said they couldn’t. I told them I’d call the number on my paperwork at home. They tried to give me a number to ring but it didn’t sound right. They ended the call soon after. Pretty clear scam to me.Domestic & General Insurance9 yearsI’ve just fallen victim to this lot, as we’re genuine customers of D&G and so thought it was legit. Can anyone explain what usually happens afterwards? Like, do they create a direct debit or take any money? I’ve informed my bank to be on alert and checked with D&G who said it wasn’t them. Feeling pretty worried now! Would be grateful for any advice.D & G9 years01227 620808 21 Nov 2017 Some bloke said he was from D and G, telling me my washing machine cover was running out today (didnt even remember having one cause the washer was pretty cheap). He just said he’d renew it straight away without asking if I wanted to. The moment I said nope, I’m not renewing, he just hung up on me. Tried calling the number back and it cut off straight away. Seems like a total scam to me.9 yearsComplete rip off, claimed it was some kind of washing machine insurance. I told the guy my warranty lasts 5 years, but he just brushed it off. I even mentioned the EU rules about appliances needing to last at least 5 years, didnt make a difference.EU9 yearsGot a call from 01227 620808 today as well. They claimed my washing machine warranty was up, so I asked them which washing machine they meant and then they just cut the call.9 yearsRight after I picked up, they just cut the call. When they phoned me again, they tried to check who I was by using my old maiden name, which I haven’t used in ages, then ended the call again. Seemed really dodgy to me.9 yearsThey kept calling me and then just dropping the call!9 yearsdodgy call! they said they were from domestic and general insurance and tried to get my bank info. totally fishy.9 yearsSome bloke rang me from a Canterbury number saying he was from DAG, and he actually knew my name and address. He started chatting about my washing machine insurance being up for renewal and tried pushing me to buy it again. But the moment I told him I don’t have any insurance on my washing machine, he just ended the call! Weird thing is, my Facebook and other personal accounts got hacked today too - might be nothing but it’s a terrible coincidence. Don’t answer if this number calls you!CanterburyDAGFacebook9 yearsThey called me twice from the same number. First time, it just rang for a few seconds then cut off. The second time, it rang once but then nothing happened. Quite weird.9 yearsThey called me twice, said a few words the first time then hung up. The second ring, they just stopped and never spoke. Weird.9 yearsGot a call from a bloke saying he was from D&G about my washing machine insurance that was about to run out. It turns out the price was higher than what he first told me. When I mentioned that, he just ended the call. Looks like a scam, so watch out!D & G9 yearsGot calls from this number like 4 times while I was working today, total harassment. Blocked them now.9 yearsThey rang me twice today, and when I picked up the second time, the woman said she was from DAG and was looking for me by name. She sounded really urgent about some washing machine plan. I just ended the call straight away.DAG9 yearsCalled me three times but just dropped the call after a few seconds each time.9 yearsSomeone rang from this number claiming to be with dag, said it was about my washing machine insurance. I told him I don’t have any cover on that, and then he just dropped the call!DAG9 yearscalled me, made me wait ages, then asked for a martin and just hung up. really rude behaviour.Martin9 yearsI’ve got policies with Domestic and General that don’t expire till next year, but as soon as I told him my policy wasn’t up for renewal, he just ended the call.9 yearsTried calling but the phone barely rang for a few seconds, so I couldnt even pick up!9 years@ Quy called me from a Canterbury area code saying he was from DAG and that my washing machine insurance had just run out. When I said I never took out any insurance, he insisted FD has had the policy for over a year. Then when I asked why I'd been charged if that was true, he just ended the call. Totally a scam, watch out for this one.CanterburyQuyDAGFD9 yearsGot loads of calls but every time they just hang up straight away!9 yearsSomeone rang me saying they were from a company called ‘dag’ and claimed my washing machine insurance had run out, then asked for my bank details! I told them where to go immediately! They are trying to pass off as Domestic & General, which is a proper firm that actually does cover domestic appliances. I got in touch with Domestic & General and they said that number isn’t connected to them at all!DomesticDomestic and General9 yearsGot a call from them - seemed like those annoying call centre types - all they said was ‘hello, good afternoon’ and then just hung up!
