5 yearsThey called saying they were from Domestic and General and mentioned I had an insurance policy with them. At first, they asked for my Visa card details, but when I wouldn’t share the security code, their tone got quite rude. Wasn't sure if it was legit, so I just ended the call.5 yearsGot a couple of calls on my landline from this number, both times about 10.30 in the morning. They just went straight to voicemail though, and of course no message was left which was no shock at all. Did a quick search on here and looks like it’s a scam. I’ve blocked the number now.5 yearsPicked up the phone just now, all I could hear was crackling noises followed by what seemed like a noisy place in the background and then the call just dropped.

Blocked those pesky people straight away.5 yearsStrange experience today. Our fridge freezer packed up so we got a ring from a 1061 number first thing to check if we still needed a repair visit. Later on, at around 5.15pm, my phone buzzed with a call from 01614646401, but they wanted a different person, not me. I'd just switched the batteries over and the phone was a bit glitchy, then the caller ended the call abruptly. Oddly, these calls all appear to be connected to Samsung.
