3 yearsGot a bloke on the phone, proper pushy, demanding I pay for some TV insurance right away. When I asked to check my documents first, he said no way, payment had to be done straight away. Honestly, quite a rude and offputting chap.3 yearsHad a call from someone claiming to be from some appliance insurance company. She said I had a free TV policy for the first couple of years but now owed a payment that was due today. I asked her to confirm what brand my TV was to be sure, but she said she couldn’t say that because of "security reasons". Felt fishy to me, so I just hung up.3 yearsThis number has been calling me every single week asking for a Mrs Woollard, but there’s no one by that name here. I told them a few times, but they just keep ringing back the next week asking the same question. When I try to ring them back, all I get is some music playing and then it hangs up.Woollard3 yearsGot a call claiming I owed some money for electric breakdown cover. Problem is, I've only ever had cover through British Gas and no one else. I just ended the call straight away.British Gas3 yearsJust got a call about some TV protection plan payment, but I’ve never signed up for any sort of cover before! Don’t know what they’re on about.3 yearsYesterday evening, I received a rather perplexing call from a woman with an accent that suggested she was from overseas. She claimed to be discussing some sort of television policy, but when I informed her that we have never owned a television, she bizarrely insisted that we owed £149.99 to cancel a policy we don’t even possess! I attempted to clarify the situation, yet she seemed utterly uninterested in my protests. Eventually, I decided it was best to hang up. It’s concerning to think that these unscrupulous individuals might trick someone who isn’t as alert. They really ought to be dealt with before they mislead anyone else. Disgraceful behaviour, honestly!3 yearsReceived a dodgy call insisting I pay for some appliance insurance that I never took out. Absolute nonsense!3 yearsSomeone from a company named Homeserve rang me up claiming I owed cash for fixing a TV, but couldn’t give any specifics about the repair. They said they’d already sent a letter, but I never got anything through the post. We’ve never had a TV fixed or signed any deal with them. When I asked for more details, they just ended the call but tried ringing again on a different day. Just a heads up, watch out for this!Homeserve3 yearsGot a call saying my TV insurance was about to expire and they wanted £98 plus my card info, so I just ended the call. Anyone know how to block these types of numbers on my home phone?3 yearsI've noticed this number switches up the final digit all the time - used to be 951, then 952, 953, and now I’m getting calls from 954. They seem to call at all odd times like early morning, around lunch, mid-afternoon, and even early evening. Quite annoying really!3 yearsThey've rung me up twice already. The first time, some woman said we owe money for fixing a TV from like two years ago. Then a bloke called again saying we still haven't paid for this repair. We told them we've never had any TV fixed, and they just ended the call.3 yearsThis was a scam, they said they were a home care service and asked for money. I just blocked the number straight away.3 yearsSomeone called me saying my tv’s appliance cover was about to expire and I needed to pay £300 all at once. I wasn’t about to get fooled though. When I asked if they already had my bank info, they said yes. So I asked them which bank I’m with, and then they just suddenly hung up.3 yearsPicked up as soon as it rang 3 times and they just cut off straight away.3 yearsReally dodgy call, felt like a sneaky scam - kept insisting on my card info (no way Jose) about some kitchen gadget insurance thing I supposedly signed up for a couple years back. They said I had to pay a discounted amount for another two years or else there’d be a cancellation charge. Demanded I pay right this second! Madness!3 yearsGot a call from a busy office with an Asian accent, claiming to be Appliance Aid and mentioning my mum’s name and address. They said she signed up for a contract back in 2021, got two years free, and now owed £195. I told them she probably bought her details somewhere and that we’d never dealt with them before, as she’s actually insured by another company. I cut the call short, calling them out as scammers and saying we’re no mugs here. Total rip-off crooks.AsiaAppliance Aid3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming they were with Homeserve about a TV payment. They said they’d withdraw money from my account and wanted to email me some paperwork. Tried asking which TV they were on about but they couldn’t give me any details. Thing is, I don’t even have Homeserve insurance! They were pretty aggressive, so watch out for this one!Homeserve3 yearsGot calls about some insurance scam, something to do with a washing machine. Also noticed numbers like 01296 8653953 popping up on my phone. Pretty sure it’s dodgy.Submit Your Own Report (01268 653954)
