It is advised to never share banking details unsolicited, request written proof of any claims, and remain cautious of aggressive or evasive behaviour from unknown callers. This number is strongly linked to fraudulent insurance schemes and should be treated with suspicion.

3 yearsJust a lot of ambient sounds with nothing substantial.3 yearsI wasn't convinced by her voice at all; she had a noticeable Indian accent. This woman claimed she was reaching out to renew my insurance for my kitchen gadgets and then proceeded to request my payment details.3 yearsLast evening, my mum got a call from someone claiming they’d be withdrawing money from her bank for some TV insurance she doesn’t even have. When she asked questions, the person started getting rude. She ended up hanging up because it all felt very off. What worried her was that the caller sounded quite convincing and even gave her four numbers supposedly from their bank account. Luckily, she didn’t share any of her banking info with them.3 yearsI didn’t get anything back, just a click noise, so I hung up and decided to block the number straight away.3 yearsThis person rang up claiming to be from some insurance firm that supposedly covers electronics. They asked loads of questions about my address and even my bank info. Thing is, I don't have any insurance like that with them. Then they said if I wanted to cancel, I’d have to cough up more than £300 for missed payments. After I didn’t fall for it and kept questioning, they just ended the call. Bit dodgy if you ask me.3 yearsI got a call from a lady with an Indian accent claiming to be from some Homecare company, saying my TV insurance needed renewing. I asked loads of questions just to see what she’d say. In the end, I told her I don’t have any insurance at all. But she still said she was gonna move ahead with it! Definitely a rip-off.Homecare3 yearsI got a call from an unknown number and when I picked up, the person wanted to confirm my name. But the moment I tried to find out who they were, they just hung up straight away. Pretty odd!3 yearsSome young lady called looking for Mr [first-name] but clearly didn’t really know what she was doing. I told her he’s not at this address and she just made a weird noise, then we both got quiet for a few seconds. Suddenly she just cut the call. What am I even supposed to make of that? I’d be wary of anyone who just randomly asks for Mr [first-name] like that.3 yearsGot a call from a number I didn’t recognise, but they never left a voicemail or anything on my answerphone.3 yearsI picked up and they just cut the call straight away.3 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Indian accent saying I’d signed up for some appliance insurance a couple of years back and now I owed a third payment of £300. She said they’d be charging my card soon. I told her I hadn’t purchased anything like that and never agree to those insurance plans. She kept pushing me hard but I was just as firm in denying it. After she went on and on, I just ended the call.3 yearsI got a phone call from someone talking about a tv insurance policy supposedly taken out by me two years ago. They tried to offer me a discount since I supposedly hadn’t made any claims. When I said I couldn’t remember signing up for anything like that and asked them to email me proof, they just hung up on me.3 yearsSo they say they’re a home care insurance firm, telling me I’ve had two years of free cover on something I bought (a TV), but now I’m meant to start paying for the last three years. They said I don’t even get a choice, and these policies stick with you even if you never agreed to them. It felt like a total rip-off. When I wouldn’t go along with it, the woman got really annoyed. Seriously, don’t get caught out by these kinds of scams!Submit Your Own Report (01268 395880)
