9 yearsI got a call about boiler insurance, but they didn’t mention they were from 'Comparison Crunch' until I asked. After I said no to the boiler cover, they kept pushing me to get cover for plumbing, electrics, and other stuff. Quite annoying really.9 yearsI got a call about boiler cover, but they only mentioned they were from ‘Comparison Crunch’ when I asked. After I said no to the boiler insurance, they started offering other stuff like plumbing and electrical cover. They were quite polite though.9 yearsGot a call earlier from a number listed as Chesterfield, but I don’t know who it was. I’m on the Telephone Preference Service, so I want to make sure these calls get reported.ChesterfieldTelephone Preference Service9 yearsthey tried selling me central heating and boiler cover. i said no thanks since a mate sorts all that out for me. then she started saying i’m paying way too much. when i made it clear i wasn’t up for chatting anymore, she got all rude and sarcastic. not exactly a good way to win clients, eh?9 yearsGot a call from this number, said it was about my boiler, but I think it was a scam. The number showed up as being from Chesterfield but it doesn’t seem to be genuine at all. Quite dodgy if you ask me.Chesterfield9 yearsI picked up and they just ended the call straight away!9 yearsThey gave us a ring about boiler cover, real polite about it. I just said we're not looking for that, and they quickly said sorry for bothering us. Nice and respectful, I'd say.9 yearsI doubt this is actually a Chesterfield business. When I picked up, you can tell the call gets transferred to another place. A very courteous woman with an accent was offering boiler insurance. Why don’t authorities do anything to prevent these callers from faking local phone numbers? Luckily, I’ve got BT Protect (a fantastic free feature from BT), so I’ve blocked the number and won’t be bothered by them again.ChesterfieldBT ProtectBT9 yearsthese crooks are everywhere - when is the government finally gonna start locking them up!9 yearsAs soon as I asked them to identify themselves, they just ended the call on me.9 yearsGot a call from someone who said they were 'Comparison Crunch' (I had looked at a boiler cover comparison site a few weeks earlier, though not that exact one, linked from Money Saving Expert). They then handed me over to a mate from 24/7 Rescue, trying to persuade me to switch my cover to theirs. While I was still on the line, I quickly checked out the MSE forum and found plenty of unhappy customers. When I told them I wasn’t ready to switch, they asked for my personal info to add to their database, like my address, which I refused to give. Wouldn’t advise dealing with them.7 RescueMSE9 yearsThis number rang me earlier, and when I said hello, they just cut the call. It’s happened a couple of times already from them, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number now.9 yearsGot a call, they just said hello then cut the call right away. Felt like it was from some call centre or something. Strange.9 yearsGot a call earlier claiming that some firms nearby are charging way too much for boiler cover. They asked which provider I use and how old my boiler is. I gave them the details thinking they’d suggest a better deal (which would be great since I’m actually having some problems with mine), but then they just said thanks and ended the call. Bit odd if you ask me, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number now.9 yearsThe phone keeps buzzing but then whoever calls just drops the call straight away.9 yearsI called this number but I had no idea who it was.9 yearsGot a call earlier from 01246258487, but the minute I picked up, the line just went dead.
