Not a scam, they called from Warranty Protect about renewing your car breakdown cover.

The phone rang a couple of times on my cell but no one picked up, then it just stopped. I decided to search the number and found out it’s linked to scammers. So I’ve gone ahead and blocked it now.

I just got a call from this number but I didn’t pick up.

Heads up, don’t pick up if this number rings you - it’s a total scam!

This number keeps ringing for warranty renewal stuff, which I didn’t ask for at all. They haven’t left any voicemail either. It’s the third time they’ve called now, so I’ve just blocked it.

Got a call from some warranty company wanting to renew my car warranty. Thing is, I returned that old car ages ago because it was rubbish, but they never cancelled the warranty. I’ll just have to explain that next time and hopefully get them to stop ringing. Bit annoying but oh well!

It’s about my secondhand car’s warranty, for sure not some kind of scam.

They started ringing me just as my used car warranty ended, trying to get me to sign up again. I told them I wasn’t interested, yet they’ve kept calling me nonstop every single day for the past week.

Just got a call about my car warranty ending soon, nothing dodgy at all. They were just being polite, checking if I fancied stretching it out a bit longer. Didn’t feel pushed or anything like that.

The warranty on my car actually ends tomorrow, so this call might legit be real.

Got a call about a warranty for a car, but it wasn't even my make or plates, so I told them off pretty quick. Definitely dodgy business.

This number has rung me about six times over the last week and never once left any voicemail. Clearly just some dodgy scammer, totally unimportant!

I’ve had about 14 calls in just two days from a blocked number and yet somehow they still manage to ring me through! Proper annoying! 🤬🤬🤬🤬

They started talking about insurance but it was all really confusing and didn’t add up at all.

This number rings me up nearly every day. Total spam, just block it and be done with it!

Lately I've been getting loads of calls from numbers I don't recognise. This one didn’t leave any voicemail, so I'm guessing it's probably another scam. I just don’t pick up when that’s the case.

The call didn’t leave any voicemail, so I’m pretty sure it was just some sort of scam. No message at all makes me think it’s dodgy.

Has anyone else had a call from "My Car Warranty" claiming to be Auto Protect? They somehow had all my car info, including my reg and the exact date my cover expired. Makes me wonder if they’ve copied my details or something dodgy’s going on.

I've blocked the number now, but it still rings me every single day. Someone really needs to look into this and put a stop to it.

No idea who called me! It's so irritating. If it was important, why didn't they just leave a voicemail or something? Really puzzled here.

They ring me daily but never bother to leave a voicemail.

Got a call today from 01298 260848. Before, calls came from what looked like Bishops Stortford (01279), but one time it showed Buxton, even though the STD code was still 01279. Today it was back to showing as Bishops Stortford again. I told my phone company and they told me to call 1572, option 1. When I did, it somehow tried to block a call that I had made before getting this one. Watch out for this number!

They kept ringing me over and over, even when I told them I wasn’t interested. Such an annoying waste of time.

This number rang my home phone but promptly disconnected as soon as I picked up. Given that I only know one individual in Bishops Stortford, and their number is quite distinct, I can't help but feel uneasy about this unfamiliar call. It feels rather unsettling, especially since they didn’t say a word before cutting off. Quite concerning, to say the least!

I've been getting an onslaught of nuisance calls and some rather bizarre messages left on my voicemail.

It seems that Autoprotect has been trying to reach me about my vehicle warranty, likely through unsolicited calls. They've been quite relentless, ringing me a staggering seven times just today alone!
