5 yearsGot a call from a posh sounding lady who seemed to think I was whoever used to own my phone number before me. I asked what it was about and she started on about some electrical insurance nonsense. Once I told her she had the wrong person, she wanted a more current contact. I just told her to check out St Peter's Gate instead.St Peter ' s Gate5 yearsI got a call from this number claiming I had some sort of electrical insurance and asked me to say out loud the long number on my debit card. I said no and then they started getting rude. When I told them it was a scam and a fraud, they got really nasty.5 yearsMy elderly mum got tricked into purchasing some sort of insurance by these awful people. They’re absolute scum.5 yearsHad a call from someone with a very believable UK accent claiming they needed to inspect our wiring as part of a Homeserve plan. I told him I hadn’t had any dealings with Homeserve for ages and definitely didn’t have any current contract. He then tried to convince me to sign up for one, saying it would save me money on my energy bills. When I asked more questions, he just said they were engineers and not an insurance firm. I told him I was going to hang up and ended the call there.Homeserve5 yearsI just ended the call after they asked for a person who moved out ages ago, like 20 years back. Whenever they ask for that name, it’s usually some dodgy scheme like fridge cover or another scam trying to pull a fast one.5 yearsGot a call about my electrical insurance, apparently it had run out and they said I needed to renew it, cost was £29.97.5 yearswatch out, this number's a total scam, definitely dodgy!5 yearsTotally a scam, he just dropped the call after I asked him twice to speak clearer. He was going on about some "wiring issues" at my place. These kinds of people are dodgy and only looking to rip you off, watch out!5 yearsNot really sure about that one.5 yearsI got a call from an elderly sounding bloke, seemed like he had an Asian accent. He said he needed a word about the electric bill or something, but he hung up just as he was getting started. My mum, who’s quite old and lives alone, got the call and it worried me a bit.5 yearsI only got my landline yesterday and the only one who’s got my number is BT. So, if you’re getting calls from 01260 512006, it’s gotta be either some dodgy scam or just some annoying cold caller.BT5 yearsGot a call from 01260512006, a woman who was trying to come off all professional, asking if there was anyone vulnerable living here. She said she was with some “service solutions” or something. When I asked her what the company was exactly, she just cut me off straight away. Tried ringing back after but got a creepy message telling me to press 1 to remove my number. Sounds like they’re definitely after older, more vulnerable people.5 yearsThese lot are all about scamming pensioners into signing up for useless electrical insurance and checks that nobody really needs. Such a waste of money.5 yearsI tried ringing back that Congleton number but it was just an automated message saying they’d missed me and would get back soon. Didn’t hear anything else, so I’ve blocked the number now.5 yearsI just received a rather alarming call regarding my mother-in-law, who’s in her nineties and living in supported accommodation. They were insisting that she owes a hefty sum for insurance concerning "white goods." I can hardly believe it - the only thing she has that fits that description is a fridge! They’re threatening legal action over £250 or more. Sounds like a right con to me!Submit Your Own Report (01260 512006)
