6 yearsJust got a call from Branden Williams on 02036428894, claiming to be from Platinum Ins. Anyone else had calls from them? Seems a bit dodgy to me.Branden WilliamsPlatinum Insurance6 yearsGot a call from some Platinum Home Care lot, asked them for their email, but then they just hung up on me!Platinum Home Care6 yearsMy mum, who is quite old, gets calls pretty much daily from these scammers. They keep saying she has to renew insurance for her washing machine, but it’s all made up. They try to get her bank card info too, which is scary. Thankfully, she doesn’t remember enough because of her dementia, so she hasn’t given anything away. Even with call blockers on her phone, they somehow still ring her. This has to be sorted out, it’s so unfair.6 yearsGot a call from a number, 02039181995, supposedly from Platinum Home Care, saying my mum's washing machine needed replacing. She asked for specifics but the caller couldn’t provide any details. Luckily, I was there at 9am on Thursday 21st May, and my mum’s pretty sharp so she didn’t take the bait. Besides, her washing machine's well over 10 years old, so it’s unlikely she’d be renewing it anytime soon. Heads up to folks in the Somerset area - watch out for this kind of scam.Platinum Home CareSomerset6 yearsGetting nonstop calls from PLATINUM HOMECARE about renewing some appliance insurance. The person on the line usually speaks with a strong Indian accent. They ring me multiple times every single day. When I ask them to remove my details from their list, they just hang up on me. Really annoying!PLATINUM HOMECARE6 yearsI received a rather peculiar call from a company going by the name of Diamond Insurance, who were trying to persuade me to renew a policy for home appliances that I’ve never owned! The lady on the line claimed she had my banking information and mentioned that payment was now expected. I decided to end the conversation right there, as I’m absolutely certain this isn’t legitimate.Diamond Insurance6 yearsI just don't get it, these scammers keep bothering us even though the numbers are out there for everyone to see. Honestly, they’re the worst kind of people. You’d think they'd be caught by now.6 yearsThis lady kept saying she wanted to talk about my electric insurance. I don’t have any, so I just ended the call straight away.6 yearsI just don't get how these sneaky scammers keep gettin away with it. They're honestly the worst kind of people.6 yearsThey've rang a few times before, not just this once.6 yearsGot a call about renewing some domestic appliance I don’t even own. I just told them to stop wasting my time and put the phone down. Then I blocked the number straight away.6 yearsA lady called 'Rebecca' rang up saying my home insurance had expired. When I asked what exactly was included, she mentioned my freezer, microwave and washing machine. She claimed to already have my card info and said the number started with a 4. I pointed out that plenty of debit cards begin that way, and she acted like I was being difficult. Even after I explained that I don’t have any appliance cover at all, she kept insisting I did. Ridiculous.Rebecca6 yearsHonestly, we just don't pick up calls from numbers we don’t recognise or that aren’t local. You’d think these muppets would realise by now that most folks see right through their scams. Seriously, why not try doing something legit instead of being a bunch of sneaky thieves?6 yearsGot a call from Platinum Homecare saying my appliances’ extended manufacturer warranty was about to expire. I said I don’t actually have any extended warranty with the manufacturer. They insisted I did. When I asked which appliances they meant, the caller just disconnected. Then they called back from a different number, and it was a lady with a distinct Asian accent. Definitely felt like a scam or phishing attempt, especially worrying since older folks might easily fall for it. The phone companies in the UK should really block these dodgy call centres.Platinum HomecareUK6 yearsAsked me to call back but didn’t leave any voicemail or message.6 yearsBeware of those dodgy home electrical cover schemes, honestly feel sorry for anyone who ends up signing up, you'll just end up throwing your cash away.6 yearsThis number popped up on my caller ID earlier, and I'm not picking up if they ring again - sounds like one of those dodgy appliance insurance scams. A mate of mine got caught out by it, but luckily her daughter managed to get the money back. Honestly, I can’t imagine how scammers like that sleep at night.6 yearsI told them straight away that I’m on the TPS register but they kept going on. So I had to remind them again and told them to check the TPS list themselves before I ended the call.Telephone Preference Service6 yearsShe was really lovely. In the end, I decided to go ahead and get the insurance.6 yearsTypical Asian scam calls again, best just to block and ignore them completely!6 yearssome bloke called from platinum insurance saying my electrical stuff policy was due for renewal. i told him i didn't have any policy with them. he kept going on about a policy under my name for my washing machine, said something about it being fake. when i asked for more info, he got all moody and said it wasn't his job to explain. then he just asked if i wanted to renew or not, and before i could say anything, he just hung up on me.Platinum Insurance6 yearsGot a call today about renewing an electric service plan, but I don’t even have one set up with them. Quite odd!6 yearsNo clue what was going on but he kept on calling like some complete idiot, just being a pain. I don’t even know why, he had no right or anything. Just annoying as hell, honestly.6 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be Diamond Insurance, saying they were renewing our home appliance cover, which we don’t actually have. She insisted they already had our bank info and that payment was due. We told her straight away we don’t make any payments or give bank details on the phone.Diamond Insurance6 yearsThis number has called me like four times already, and I’m from Worthing.Worthing6 yearsI picked up the phone, but all I heard was some random music and no message was left. Quite frustrating!6 yearsThese lot are pretty sneaky. I have a call blocker for nuisance calls, but they somehow manage to ring without showing up properly. I picked up the phone, but no one was there, so I blacklisted the number straight away. Watch out for these sorts of calls!Submit Your Own Report (01253 807448)
