2 yearsStarted getting calls from dodgy folks using numbers ending in 7258 and then today 7259 - this scammer must have a bunch of almost identical numbers. It’s been like 3 attempts on my line so far. I’m done with it and have set my phone to block them now.2 yearsI've had two missed calls from this number.2 yearsGot calls from a different number but same company, Home Services Care. They were asking about paying directly for checking out some equipment. Bit odd but yeah, same folks.Home Services Care2 yearsBeware! Got a call from some drainage protection company while I was at home. I asked them to put everything in writing and said I’d show it to my solicitor. They then threatened to charge my debit card the entire amount. Not falling for that. Good luck to anyone dealing with them!2 yearsReceived two calls today from a number purporting to represent a home care service linked to Sky. Quite intriguing!Sky2 yearsGot a call from someone with loads of chatter you’d expect in a call centre going on behind them. No clue what they were ringing up about, but whatever it was, I definitely didn’t want or need it.2 yearsGot a call from someone saying I needed to pay Appliance Aid for TV insurance, but I never bought a TV. Total scam, watch out!Appliance Aid2 yearsI received a call from this number claiming that I had one last payment to make on my contract with them. I basically told her, “Oh, not this old trick again!” and hung up. I’m not in the habit of picking up calls from unfamiliar numbers and I regret this one. I've gone ahead and blocked the number, but I’m fully aware that they'll just cycle through a new set of numbers to swindle people out of their cash. It’s absolutely unacceptable that phone providers allow this sort of nonsense to carry on. I believe they referred to themselves as Homeserve, and I recall there being an earlier mention of that name from someone else.Homeserve2 yearsGot a call that looked like a total scam to me. Hung up quick once I realised what was going on. These phone scams really need to stop!2 yearsThis number keeps ringing me but I just don’t pick up. Sounds like one of those dodgy appliance insurance scams or something similar.2 yearsTotal scam, don’t fall for it!2 yearsGot a call from them two times tonight, claimed I'd chatted with one of their mates the day before. Told them I hadn’t, and then they just hung up. So, I went ahead and blocked the number.2 yearsThey keep ringing my phone daily, but whenever I answer, there’s just silence on the other end.2 yearsIt's outrageous, really. My poor mum, who's getting on in years, keeps receiving calls from someone hounding her for my late father. It's just totally inappropriate and distressing for her.2 yearsPicked up and some voice asked for the expiry date then just cut off. This number came up after a few calls yesterday from similar ones, and when I questioned them, they hung up straight away. It’s not the first time I’ve dealt with them, as they use lots of different numbers. You block one, and they’re right back on with another.2 yearsGot a dodgy call from someone trying to scam me. Definitely a scammer.2 yearsBeen getting calls from this number a few times over the last couple of days but they never leave a voicemail. Feels like it could be one of those scam calls.2 yearsGot a call from someone claiming they were the tech support team that sorts out all those pesky spam calls. I told her I’d never signed up for anything, but she insisted I've got a 12-month contract with them and needed to check in to take payment for the next year. I told her honestly, it’s not working at all since I’m still getting loads of scam calls just like this one, then she just ended the call. Never agreed to anything like that, the background was full of noisy chatter like a busy call centre. Total scam, avoid them!2 yearsGot a call from someone about renewing a TV repair service, which I’ve never signed up for. The woman, Pauline, was really pushy about it. I told her where to go and then just ended the call.Pauline2 yearsHomeserve keeps claiming that I have an outstanding balance? I'm not entirely sure what that’s about.HomeserveSubmit Your Own Report (01268 517257)
