3 yearsGot a call from someone who sounded like they had an Indian accent, claiming to be from some company linked to my TV repair insurance. They tried pushing me for £89 to cancel, or else they’d take £390 straight from my bank to keep the policy going. I told them off straight away. Couldn’t catch the company name properly either. Now I’m trying to figure out where the number originates.3 yearsSomeone just called my landline but didn’t say anything before hanging up. Feels like they’re trying to find people to scam or something.3 yearsAt about 6:50pm on the 17th of January 2024, I got a call from someone who nearly had my name right. When I asked a few questions, I think she didn’t like how I sounded, because she just ended the call.3 yearsThe other day I got a call from someone who kept calling me “Mrs” followed by my first name, which was a bit odd. She tried to tell me about a policy that was about to expire and said I could get a good deal if I renewed it, but honestly, I couldn’t catch what she was saying clearly at all. Sounded like she was mumbling or something.3 yearsSounds like a total rip-off to me.3 yearsI ended the call straight away as soon as someone picked up.3 yearsI got a call from Chelmsford, from a woman with an Indian accent. She said she was from a company called Homecare and mentioned something about lowering our last payment since we hadn’t made any claims over the last couple of years. I just hung up.ChelmsfordHomecare3 yearsHad a phone call from someone claiming to be from an Indian call centre earlier today. She was clearly sticking to a script, telling me I had an outstanding payment on some insurance policy for my TV. Problem was, I don’t even own a policy like that! When I asked her to tell me the brand and model of the TV she said it was a ‘security question’ and refused to give it to me. I wasn’t having any of it and insisted she confirmed that first before we continued. Of course, she wouldn’t budge - just a trick to fish out your info I reckon. I told her I was going to report the call because it’s obviously a scam and she sounded a bit annoyed when I refused to stay on the script, then she abruptly hung up. Just be careful with calls like this - they’re trying to get your bank details and push fake insurance on your gadgets. Definitely report anyone like this!India3 yearsI got a phone call from someone saying I’d taken out an electric contract with them two years ago, which was ending today. They offered to renew it for £99 since I hadn’t made any claims. I told them I never signed up for anything like that and asked for the company’s name, but I couldn’t catch it properly. The lady kept claiming I did have the contract, and when I tried to tell her to just cancel it, she said it wasn’t possible because I’d missed the two-year cooling off period! I asked her to wait a moment while I grabbed a pen to jot down their info, then suddenly she just hung up on me. Such a weird experience!3 yearsMy mum got a phone call, and luckly she’s pretty hard of hearing. They kept going on after the typical "who is this?" and "what do you want?" She finally said she’d pass me over. I’m not the friendliest on the phone, and right after I said hello and asked what they wanted, they just hung up. They’re definitely targeting vulnerable older folks to scam them.3 yearsLately, I've been getting these calls all about renewals. They keep pushing this £89 reduced premium every single time. Honestly, I just hang up straight away now. They’re really quite relentless.3 yearsThey were insisting I supposedly had a boiler insurance with them, which felt totally dodgy, like they were just trying to con me.3 yearsI got a call from a lady with a South African accent, number 01245981867, saying she worked for Home Care Services. She was quite pushy and kept insisting I pay £150 for a TV insurance deal, claiming if I didn’t pay right away, the price would jump to £357. Although they actually knew my full address, the debit card details she gave were wrong.South AfricaHome Care Services3 yearsI ended up just dropping the call.3 yearsGot a call today, 18th January 2024, from a really pushy woman. She insisted I’d signed up for some kind of insurance policy and said it was time to start making payments. I told her I’d never taken out any policy with them. She then claimed it was already set to be charged to a specific card, but that wasn’t mine. When I asked her what card she thought it was, she just wouldn’t believe me. I refused to give any of my card details, feeling like she was trying to trick me. Then she threatened to cancel the policy, but warned me about a cancellation fee of £175.09. I told her there was no way I’d pay that. Before hanging up, I warned her that if I get any more calls like this, I’d have to report it to the police. Then I ended the call.3 yearsGot a call from a woman with such a thick accent I honestly couldn't make out a word she was saying, even after asking her to repeat it multiple times. I just ended up hanging up. This reminded me of some dodgy calls I've had before claiming to be from 'Homecare' about home insurance, which seems to be a common complaint here. Pretty sure it's just those scammy lot at it again.3 yearsMy elderly mum got a call from a woman who was really pushy and started threatening her with court over some sort of TV subscription payment. Mum wasn’t having any of it though and warned the woman that it would be her in court if she kept on with the threats.3 yearsJust got a missed call from 01244981868 a minute ago, and funny enough, last week the same number or something really close rang me too.3 yearsJust noticed I missed a call from a number almost the same, like 01245981868, a few days ago and again today.3 yearsThese lot were trying to get my bank info, saying something about TV insurance, which I dont even have. Total scam!3 yearsHad a rather dodgy phone call today regarding some insurance payment for white goods that I supposedly owed. It felt very much like a scammer trying to reel me in for my banking information. Best to steer clear of this one!3 yearsGot a call saying my TV deal was up for renewal. Thing is, I’ve never had any contract with them at all. Just the standard load of rubbish trying to get info out of me.3 yearsI just ignored this number, didn't pick up the phone. It rang about 28 times or so.3 yearsGot a call again from PHL saying I owe £300 for something from three years back. They said if I pay £79 today it’d all be sorted. It’s the same story as before, one time it was about TV insurance, then it was boiler repair insurance. I’ve blocked three different numbers already but they just keep ringing from new ones. Don’t fall for it, it’s definitely a scam.PHL3 yearsThey didn’t even leave a message, feels like a scam call to me.3 yearsThis morning I've had 3 calls from this number, every time it just goes straight to my answer machine and no one leaves any message. Definitely think it's a scam.3 yearsThey've got their numbers all mixed up - he'll probably end up getting hit with a fine worth a few hundred quid.3 yearsGot a call from someone saying I owed insurance fees on stuff I supposedly bought. Total scam, watch out!3 yearsGot a call that was totally a con.3 yearsMy partner answered the phone but the person on the other end hung up before saying why they were calling.3 yearsGot a call about some white goods insurance payment I apparently owe. I don’t even have that insurance and kept telling them so, but they just kept insisting I had it and needed to pay up. Ended the call telling them to jog on!3 yearsGot a call from this number about insuring our TV, which we've never actually done. The person on the line started talking about taking arrears from a bank account that doesn’t even exist for us. Quite strange really!3 yearsI didn’t pick up and there was no voicemail or anything left.Submit Your Own Report (01245 981867)
