Phoned a number that’s listed on the TPS, but all I got was silence on the other end.

I got a call from a guy who sounded Asian and spoke really bad English. He kept talking about this home appliance insurance or something. I just told him I have this small hairy mate Sergie who handles all my insurance stuff.

I got a call about a payment supposedly coming out of my mum’s account for some TV insurance she’s never signed up for. I was just trying to get her on the line to sort it out.

Somebody called me about insuring a TV we supposedly bought last year, but honestly it’s been a second-hand telly from my partner’s family that we’ve owned for like 8 years at least. Bit odd really!

Got a call from someone with an asian accent saying he's frank, haha. Then he went on about me being 9 stone and a size 10, which is nowhere near right! Said he wanted to chat about my homecare account related to my TV... total scam alert. I've never even had a homecare account! Told him he was talking nonsense. What really annoyed me was him getting past my call blocker and just blabbing his name like that. Watch out folks!!

Got a call roughly 30 mins ago from some bloke who refused to give any straight answers. Each time I ended the call, he’d ring right back - must’ve been around 7 times total. The calls only stopped once the bank was on the line with us. The guy claimed we’d purchased a telly last year, which is a complete lie, and kept pushing some insurance deal over the phone, something we never do. Properly unsettling experience.

Scam calls about non-existent TV cover.

Got a call on my landline from a Chelmsford number, it just said 'announced' so I thought I’d pick up. They wanted to talk to me but I just acted like I wasn’t around. Honestly couldn’t make out what the person was saying, it was all so unclear. After checking out the comments about this number and seeing it might be dodgy, I’ve blocked it and erased it from my phone.

Pure criminals for sure.

They said they were from Homeserve, the boiler insurance folks, but then the woman on the phone switched to talking about TV insurance. She had quite a thick accent and spoke really unclearly. My wife, who is a bit hard of hearing, handed me the phone because she couldn’t catch what was being said, and I just ended up hanging up. I’m ex-directory, so I suppose they must have got my number from who knows where.

Called me at 5.25pm, there was a weird delay and loads of noise in the background. An Indian lady sped through her spiel about some insurance and said they’d be sending me a refund, confirming everything in writing. I told her to just send the details in writing, but she insisted she needed to check some info first. So I told her I wasn’t expecting any letter because it’s clearly a scam, right? She kept going on and then I straight up asked if she felt proud scamming people. Her answer? “Of course I am!” Can you believe it? Must be the most honest scammer ever!

I’ve been getting calls nonstop about some TV protection plan. The person said I had two years free, then three years paid, and that my free period had finished. When I asked to cancel, they said there’d be a £20 admin fee. But if I didn’t pay that, they expected the full three years’ payment upfront. They obviously had my name and address and claimed they’d sent loads of emails, which I’ve never received. They refused to tell me the email address they used or send me any proof. I’ve now blocked the number to stop the constant pestering.

When I picked up, there was complete silence on the other end. Pretty sure it was some kind of scam.

Got a call from someone claiming they were about my TV’s warranty, said they worked for some home care service. My telly’s nearly 8 years old and I’ve never signed up for any of those policies. What shocked me was that they managed to slip past call protect, that’s just bold!

They didn’t even bother to learn my name, felt like a total scam so I just hung up.

Be careful, sounds like one of those appliance service scams. Best to stay clear!

Got a call from a cheerful lady speaking really quickly, saying I had an old debt from like two years ago. I've never come across this company before. Watch out, this is a total scam!

I got a call from someone saying I had bought insurance on a TV a couple years back and that the two years free cover was now up, so I needed to start paying. Seemed a bit dodgy to me.

Somebody rang up asking about my home care account and wanted to speak to me. I didn't want to say my name, so he told me he'd give me another call later.
