Reports on phone number 01268653968
3 yearsWhen I picked up the call from this number, they attempted to persuade me into paying for some sort of television insurance. I made it clear that I would be reaching out to the authorities if they persisted in trying to extract any funds from me. They promptly disconnected the call.3 yearsJust got a call at half six tonight from someone saying they were from Homeserve about TV insurance. They knew my name and address but were trying to tell me I’d get a discount if I paid a lump sum for the remaining 3 years of a 5 year plan. The weird part was when they gave me the last 4 digits of a debit card we never use, and they got them wrong. That was a big red flag so I ended the call and blocked the number straight away. Felt like such a scam.Homeserve3 yearsGot a call from 01268653968 around 4:30pm today. The person claimed I’d cancelled some call blocker service and said they’d take money from my account. I just ended the call straight away.3 yearsGot three calls back to back claiming I owed money on a boiler. Definitely a scam.3 yearsGot a ring at 9:01 while I was out and no voicemail or anything. Didn’t recognise the number so I just figured it was dodgy. Reading about the insurance scams now, and it seems like the same trick they pulled on me a couple of years back. Looks like it’s coming round again.3 yearsThey kept ringing insisting on my card info just to cancel a policy. I said no and ended the call straight away. After that, they tried a few more times to get through.3 yearsI didn’t recognise the number, so I allowed the answering machine to pick up. The only thing I caught was someone saying "John," which prompted me to hang up straight away.John3 yearsGot a call from this number around midday today about a balance of £368 on a TV supposedly bought three years ago. I’m certain I never bought one though. The caller was a woman with a foreign accent and wanted my personal info, but I refused to give anything. I told her if she gave me more details first, I might confirm it. She got really irate when I didn’t. She even mentioned parts of my bank account number, which was weird. When I said I’d report it to the police, all she said was “good luck with that.” Suspicious to say the least.3 yearsI picked up thinking it was a normal landline but then got one of those annoying recorded messages saying ‘your call is important to us’ and all that. Then it asked me to hold for a “customer advisor” - honestly, just gave up and hung up. Definitely not worth it!3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be about a last payment on my appliance insurance. I told them I never signed up for any insurance and quickly ended the call, realising it was a scam. Blocked the number straight away.3 yearsGot a call from this number earlier today, they claimed I signed up for some electric plan back in 2020 and said I was behind on three payments. Tried to get more info but they just kept repeating stuff without giving any real details. Sounds like a total scam to me. Stay well clear!3 yearsAt 8:59, I got a call from this number but didn’t pick up. They didn’t leave a voicemail and just ended the call.3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be with a company about a last payment for a TV repair plan. They even knew my address and the last four digits of one of my cards. Thing is, I've never had any repair plan with them. Told them to just send me a letter since they already had my details.Submit Your Own Report (01268 653968)
