4 yearsGot a call from an automated message about odd activity on my bank account, something about a purchase from Amazon. Definitely sounded dodgy to me.Amazon4 yearsI didn’t pick up, and seeing what others said, I’m really pleased I didn’t!4 yearsI got a call that barely rang before hanging up, no voicemail or anything. If what others have said is true, then I’m ready to mess about with whoever rings me back!4 yearsGot a call from a woman named Karen who acted like I was supposed to recognise the company she was from. She said my washing machine was about a year old and my warranty was about to expire. I told her that’s not right, and she just said maybe I’d upgraded. Which I haven’t. Then she asked if I still owned the washer and if it was alright to call me when the warranty ended. This is the second time they’ve phoned me now, definitely blocking the number. I wonder where they’re getting this info from?Karen4 yearsDon't get caught out by this! A woman called herself Carol and acted like she was a mate of mine. Then she tried to push me into renewing the warranty for my washing machine over the phone. Problem is, my washer isn't under any warranty. I just hung up and blocked the number straight away.Carol5 yearsI pretended to be Carol just to get past the caller with Callsafe. When I finally spoke to her, she mentioned something about insurance for our cooker and fridge-freezer. Thing is, we don't have that insurance at all, and actually, we don’t even own a fridge-freezer. I told her we weren’t interested in any insurance and asked her to take our details off their list. Then I blocked the number.CallsafeCarol5 yearsI got a call from a company called Service Cover out of Chichester. I'm not sure if they’re legit or just a scam, but the way they go about getting customers is pretty dodgy. Ringing folks like that feels really intrusive and rude to me. I’m definitely blocking their number from now on, feels like pure harassment.Chichester5 yearsThey are a company offering Service Cover and they're located in Chichester. I’m not sure if they’re legit or not, but the way they go about getting customers, calling folks like this, isn’t something I find very polite at all. I’m definitely going to block their number next time. Feels like pure harassment.Chichester5 yearsGot a call from a woman asking about the warranty on washing machines. I just ended the call straight away.5 yearsUtterly dodgy! A woman rang me about a washing machine warranty and cut the call straightaway. Definitely a con!5 yearsI just got a call saying my washing machine insurance needed renewing but I don’t even have a washing machine. Definitely a scam!5 yearsSomebody rang me up asking how old my kitchen stuff was, just to check if the warranty was still valid. I told them all my appliances are brand new. After that, the woman said goodbye and ended the call.5 yearsJust got a call from this number on my phone. It showed a name but I couldn’t make out the full thing, so I picked up ready to hang up if it seemed dodgy. The caller said she was from Service Cover Company and asked for me by name. Then she brought up my washing machine and said it probably wasn’t covered anymore. I’m really curious how they know these details. She tried to pitch that I could save around 30 to 40%, but I said no thanks quite nicely.Service Cover Company5 years01243858979. What a dull little person with no better things to do. Maybe they’ll mature at some point, but I’m not holding my breath. Then again, without people like them, mental hospitals might be a thing of the past. Anyway, silly narrow-minded twats, maybe this will help you snag a proper job and finally grow up a bit.6 yearsGot a few missed calls earlier, only picked up the last one. It was someone trying to push insurance for appliances. Blocked them straight away.6 yearsThey've called me a couple of times, but I haven't picked up. Feels like just another telemarketer to me.6 yearsJust missed a call a moment ago, didn’t pick up.6 yearsGot a call at around 12:57 today but no voicemail or anything. I’ve got a warranty about to expire on my oven, so I’m wondering if this could be genuine. Will pick up next time and see what’s what.7 yearsI'm pretty sure this is a SCAM! Got a phonecall from a company claiming to be satellite customer care, which I used to have insurance with. Looks like they've somehow got my details from the original satellite customer care, and now they're ringing me up trying to get me to insure with them. They say they're from SCC, which is actually short for both company names, hoping you'll think it’s the same firm you dealt with before. Total trick to catch you out!7 yearsI've had a rather dubious experience with a firm attempting to renew an insurance policy that I never even possessed. Just a heads up to others, stay vigilant!7 yearsI've blocked the number but it still manages to ring me nonstop, it's really annoying.7 yearsGot a call from a number claiming to offer appliance cover or something like that. I wasn’t interested at all and told them, but they didn’t bother leaving any message. Feels like they’re just annoying me with these repeated calls.7 yearsI got through to this home appliance service cover firm and honestly, the lady I spoke with was really lovely. She was polite, spoke clear English and didn’t push me at all or try to talk down to me. Properly refreshing experience!7 yearsGot a call yesterday asking for me by name about renewing the warranty on my washing machine?? I’ve never even owned one! So, I just ended the call.7 yearsI’m a home appliance service technician.7 yearsI’m not sure, I haven't picked up the phone to find out.7 yearstried calling but got no response at all7 yearsHad a call from a bloke who was speaking some Asian language. I couldn’t catch a single word he was saying.7 yearsI get calls pretty much every evening around six, but no one's ever actually talking.Submit Your Own Report (01243 858979)
