2 yearsWatch out, it's a scam!2 yearsSome bloke rang up trying to get cash from my elderly mum, saying she owed for a telly payment she hadn’t paid. She’s actually all paid up, no money owed at all.3 yearsI think this might’ve been a scam. I heard some weird noises in the background and the person’s voice sounded all strange. As soon as I picked up, they just ended the call right away.3 yearsGot a call from this number earlier claiming to be from home care services and asking for my husband. He’s just got back from hospital. The caller spoke with what sounded like a Chinese accent. I said thanks but I'm not interested, then they hung up straight away.3 yearsReceived a call from someone purporting to be from Home Services, allegedly regarding a policy we supposedly held for our television and cable devices. They requested to verify our address and other details. However, the minute I questioned their legitimacy-since we don’t actually have any insurance with them-the caller abruptly ended the conversation. Quite dodgy, if you ask me!Home Services3 yearsOn the evening of February 11th at approximately 20:35, I received a call from someone claiming to represent an insurance firm. He mentioned that, since I hadn't lodged any claims, I was eligible for a refund of half my payment. However, he wanted my card information to process this refund. I quickly recognised it as a scam and told him to just go away!3 yearsMy mum got a call from Tech team 4u, they said it wasn’t a sales call but I had no clue what it was about and they just ended the call. They’ve called twice now from two different numbers, both are blocked from now on.Tech Team 4u3 yearsThis bloke called me saying I had just a year left on my home service contract and could get a cracking deal if I renewed. I’d never even heard of Home Serve though, so told him I wasn’t interested and wanted to cancel. He wasn’t bothered and said alright, but mentioned there’d be a cancellation fee if I could provide payment info. Like I’d fall for that! I left him hanging on the line for a good while just to waste their phone credit. Classic.HomeServeD & G3 yearsThey rang me a few times and when I picked up, the person asked if I was @@@@ and even used my full name. I asked who it was but they just ended the call. From what I heard, they're trying to get you to say YES on record and then take advantage of that. Best thing is to not pick up or at least don’t say YES to anything.3 yearsGot a call from a woman claiming I hadn’t paid some insurance on my TV. What a load of rubbish!3 years11/01/23 11:21 01268395881 A lady rang up an elderly person, asking for their late son by name... This poor elder had only recently started healing from the loss, and now these #### have shattered years of progress. It's not just about the money lost because of these scam artists! The upset older person ended the call straight away, so we’re left guessing what dodgy scheme she was trying to run. Either way, that’s number 842 added to the TrueCall blocker’s blacklist!3 yearsGot a call just before 9 in the morning and could hear loads of noise like a hectic call centre behind the bloke. He had an Asian accent and wanted to talk to my husband. I told him he wasn’t here at the moment and he said he’d ring back. I told him not to waste his time ‘cos it was clearly some sort of scam and told him to shove off.3 yearsJust got a call about my TV insurance, said I missed a payment but I don’t even have an insurance with them. Total scam, trying to get people to pay for something that doesn’t exist. Watch out!3 yearsI got a call from someone with a South African accent claiming to be from Prestige Homes, offering a discount on my TV policy. They asked me to verify my personal info and set up a new yearly payment. Instead, I just spelled out a swear word. They said thanks and then just ended the call.3 yearsGot a call from a woman with a strong accent who asked if she was talking to me. I said yes, and right after, she wanted my debit card info - same as some other folks have warned about here. I don't even have any TV insurance, so it was obvious a scam. I shot back at her, “Do you feel good about ripping people off?” Then she just ended the call.3 yearsdoesn’t matter how many times i say no, these people just keep coming back and won’t give up!3 yearsThis number won’t stop ringing my dad’s phone. The lady on the other end sounds really pushy, claiming he owes some money for TV insurance and threatening court if he doesn’t pay up with his card info. It’s clearly just a scare tactic aimed at older folks. When I tried to ring back, it just puts you on hold with that annoying “your call is important” spiel... yeah, right!3 yearsGot a call just now and looked up the number. Some insurance scam about paying for home coverage. I told the woman I’d already had this spiel before, but she just kept banging on like last time - so I cut her off and ended the call.3 yearsGot a call out of the blue, didn't ask for it.3 yearsThis number called my old man claiming he’d missed a payment for a TV rental. The woman said her name was Maria and she sounded like she had a Spanish accent. Thankfully, dad was quick to realise he doesn’t have a TV on rent and told her to buzz off. If this phone line is actually through BT, they ought to disconnect it right away!MariaDadBT3 yearsGot a call about the TV Licence, sounded dodgy to me. The person was quite pushy and kept calling back - I ended up getting around 4 calls even after I’d ended the first one. The voice didn’t sound local either, seemed foreign. Definitely a scam.Kept3 yearsToday my mum, who is quite old, got a call from a woman speaking with a foreign accent about some TV insurance she doesn’t even own. I stepped in to handle it and the lady got pretty rude. I asked her to send something in writing instead, and then she just hung up on me.3 yearsGot a call from someone who said they were from an appliance insurance firm, saying my policy was ending soon (which I don’t even have) and I needed to pay up TODAY to keep it active.3 yearsThis morning, on the 1st of November 2023, at precisely 9:11 AM, I received a rather dubious call from this number. The caller introduced themselves as part of an outfit called "Home Drainage Protection Service," insisting they provide insurance cover for drainage systems, televisions, and washing machines! They went on to assert that I owed them three years' worth of insurance for my television. However, I found their claims to be utterly unfounded; I have never taken out insurance for my TV when I purchased it. To make matters worse, they failed to provide any sort of reference number and attempted to pressure me into making a payment over the phone, all while denying me their bank details. Quite shady, if you ask me!Home Drainage Protection Service3 yearsGot a call from a lady with an accent trying to get me to pay for some TV insurance that doesn't even exist. What a dodgy scammer, really nasty behaviour.3 yearsGot a call from someone with an accent, claiming it was the final invoice for a TV service. I don't even subscribe to anything like that, so I just ended the call straight away. Definitely seemed like a scam.3 yearsGot a call claiming my last fridge freezer payment was overdue, but since I hadn’t made any claims, they’d cut the final payment in half as a “reward.” Told them I never took out any insurance with the store I bought the fridge from and the moment I said that, they just disconnected. Totally feels like a scam to me.Submit Your Own Report (01268 395881)
