4 yearsTotal scam about some washing machine warranty. Told them to stop calling and just get lost. They need to be banned for good!4 yearsGot a call earlier this evening from a bloke saying he was from Virgin Media, said I was owed some cashback. Asked me for my sort code and card number, but I didn’t give out any details. The guy was Asian and called himself Dave. The number that showed was 01615202133. Bit fishy if you ask me.Virgin MediaDave4 yearsBoth callers spoke with a thick Asian accent. The woman actually knew my name and told me I was owed a refund for a washing machine. When I asked for a cheque instead, she passed me onto a bloke claiming to be her ‘supervisor’. He then asked for my bank account details and sort code. I declined to give them and said they could keep their money - total scam, so I just hung up.4 yearsGot a call from some lot claiming they’d refund me £119 for a washing machine warranty. When I asked them which washing machine it was, they couldn’t give me a straight answer. They were just after my bank info. Absolute scam, stay clear!FRAUDULENT4 yearsGot a call from a number I didn't recognise, they just hung up without leaving a message on the answerphone.4 yearsGot a call from some Home Care place, saying they'd give us a refund for a washing machine warranty. Thing is, we never even bought one!4 yearsThey call but never bother to pick up when you answer.4 yearsPretty sure it was just one of them call centre calls. I picked up and gave our company's name, then an Indian lady asked, “Hello?” I repeated the business name, and she goes, “Is this Mr William?” I said no, and then she just hung up on me.IndiaWilliamNo4 yearsGot a call saying I was owed a refund for washing machine insurance I never even bought. They asked for my bank details to send the money back, but I reckon they were just after taking all my cash!4 yearsThis number kept calling me, tried to trick me into giving my bank info. Definitely a scam, best to stay clear!4 yearsGot a call from Kevin using this number, he was going on about some warranty refund for my washing machine. When I asked how I was supposed to get that since I never had any warranty, he just snapped back with ‘you’re just wasting my time’! Really cheeky if you ask me.Kevin4 yearsApparently it's for some sort of washing machine insurance or something like that.4 yearsSomeone from homecare called me about paying too much for a washing machine. They said I had overpaid but I'm not sure how that happened. Bit confusing really!4 yearsPhone rang but no one left a voicemail. After reading others' reviews, looks like I didn't miss anything important anyway.4 yearsGot a call from a woman named Grace who was talking about some kind of refund they supposedly owed me. She kept dodging when I asked who exactly she was representing. Once I mentioned the police were recording the call, she hung up straight away.Grace4 yearsSo this person calls me up and starts off by totally butchering my name, saying something like ‘hello, am i speaking to mr ..(name said all wrong)’. I just burst out laughing and said, ‘what’s this about then?’ There was a weird pause on their end and then they just hung up. Feels like they were up to no good, if you ask me.4 yearsGot a call from some place called "Home Repairs & Appliances" claiming they needed my bank details to send back money I apparently overpaid, which I never did. Seems like a total scam to me!Home Repairs & Appliances4 yearsI received a peculiar call from someone claiming to be from a home care service. They insisted that I was due a payment and asked for my bank account details to transfer the funds. Quite an odd request, if you ask me!4 yearsSomeone called me saying I was owed money back on some washing machine insurance or something like that. They even knew my full name and where I live, which made me think twice. But then they started pushing for my bank info - definitely a scam.4 yearsGot a call but no one said anything, just some chatter I could hear in the background.4 yearsGot a call from someone with a really strong Indian accent saying they're Mary Smith and offering a refund for my home appliances. Totally dodgy, seemed like a classic scam to me.Mary Smith4 yearsGot a call from someone asking for my bank sort code, said they needed to return £150 for a washing machine I’ve never bought. Totally fishy!4 yearsTotal scam alert. Got a call from someone insisting they wanted to refund me £119 because apparently I was overcharged on a washing machine purchase. They kept bugging me for my bank info, which felt super dodgy. I kept stalling and having a chat to waste their time, and I think they got fed up because they ended the call abruptly. Sure, I did buy a washing machine about a decade ago, but this whole thing smells fishy to me. Don't fall for it!4 yearsI received a call from a chap claiming he was about to refund me £119 for some washing machine insurance that I never took out. I must admit, I found his story rather dubious and told him as much. He promptly ended the conversation.4 yearsI received a call from a woman named Susan who insisted that I was due a refund of £119 related to a washing machine issue. The moment I declined to share my banking information, she abruptly hung up on me. Quite dodgy, to say the least!Susan4 yearsI've received numerous calls from them insisting they needed my banking details to process a £119 refund for a washing machine warranty. The moment I started to probe a bit, they became visibly frustrated and outright declined to send a cheque. When I pressed for the name of their company, they abruptly ended the call. Quite dodgy, if you ask me!4 yearsGot a call from someone claiming I owed £119 for a washing machine warranty that I’ve never even signed up for! When I requested a written confirmation and a cheque, the lady on the phone told me that wasn’t possible. It all seems incredibly dodgy to me - steer clear of these scammers!4 yearsYet another bothersome and unsettling scam. Is there truly no method to trace these individuals? It’s a bit baffling, really - something about a refund for washing machine cover, and they wanted my bank details for payment. I decided to turn the tables on them, since they had my address, and I cheekily proposed they send me a cheque instead. Unsurprisingly, they weren't keen on that idea. "Oh, the account's closed!" they said!4 yearsI'm in the same boat! I received a call from a chap claiming he wanted to process a refund for my washing machine insurance. But here's the kicker - my washing machine is a relic from 1992! We got it directly from the makers as it was one of their test models, and insurance? Never had that nonsense. I asked him to pop a cheque in the post since he already had my details, and he goes, 'I can't do that, but I’ll give it a go.' I shot back, 'Look mate, we both know this is dodgy, how do you even sleep at night?' He didn't say another word and just hung up. Unbelievable!4 yearsI had a rather peculiar encounter earlier. An Asian gentleman by the name of Alfred rang me up, claiming that I was eligible for a refund of £119 from an insurance policy I knew nothing about. When I requested that he send me a cheque, he replied that it wasn’t possible. I insisted, “Oh, but it is!” and it quickly turned into a bit of a farce from there. The conversation culminated in him calling me a c**t before abruptly hanging up. Absolute madness!Alfred4 yearsToday, I received a rather suspicious phone call from a lady trying to sell me an extended warranty for my washing machine. Her accent was quite thick and she just seemed off, if you know what I mean. I can't shake the feeling that this is a dodgy scam attempt.4 yearsGot a call from a call centre where the person had a really thick Indian accent, telling me I was due a refund because of some overpayment on a washing machine warranty. Complete scam - I haven’t even bought a washing machine for ages!4 yearsthey keep ringing non stop, it’s really annoying4 yearsGot a call from a guy named Harry, sounded Indian, saying he was sorting out a refund on some warranty for an electric gadget I supposedly bought. When I asked what exactly he meant, he named something I’ve never had or even heard of before. I told him straight up I wasn’t falling for a scam and he hung up quick enough.Harry4 yearsi usually just ignore calls that sound like scams. honestly, when will this annoying rubbish finally end?4 yearsThis caller claimed to be from some refund department and already had my name, which was a bit creepy. Definitely felt like one of those scam calls.4 yearsFound it rather puzzling, but they mentioned something about processing a £194 refund. I cheekily encouraged them to continue, saying, "Go on, make my day!" and then they promptly ended the call.4 yearsAs soon as I picked up, they hung up the phone straight away.4 yearsI got a call from someone claiming I was owed a refund. I called them a scammer straight away and ended the call.4 yearsgot a ring from this number but left it unanswered cause I wasn't sure who was calling. Seems like those dodgy scammers are at it once more. watch out folks.4 yearsGot a call from some home appliance company saying I was entitled to a £100 cashback and an appliance warranty. Sounded fishy from the start!4 yearsI answered the call but stayed silent, then they just ended the call.4 yearsI got a call saying they were refunding part of a home appliance insurance I supposedly didn't use. They asked for my bank info to send me £119 back. It's definitely a scam trying to steal bank details. The guy first said his name was Cedric, but later switched to Johnathon when I asked for his name to ring back. Really don't share any info with this number!CedricJonathan4 yearssomeone rang me claiming there was a mistake with my washing machine warranty refund, said something about £19. i asked if he needed my bank info, but told him i’ve got no washing machine. then he just hung up. definitely sounded like a call from india.India4 yearsi got a call from this number, was about some ppi refund stuff but felt totally dodgy. they kept pushing for my details, all seemed like a sneaky scam to nab your private info. honestly, best to just ignore if this rings you up.4 yearsSo I got a call from them today, and I decided to mess with them a bit by telling them I was behind bars for fraud.4 yearsSomeone kept ringing an old person called Sam over and over again. It was really annoying for them.Sam4 yearsRequesting bank information under the guise of an 'insurance refund' raises several red flags. Quite dubious, if you ask me.4 yearsThey’re requesting my bank information for a refund, but I've made it clear I prefer a cheque instead of divulging those details. Their response was quite cheeky, suggesting that nobody really uses cheques these days and that I should "trust them." Oh, really? That seems highly dodgy to me! Proceed with caution, everyone!4 yearsI received a call from this number, but when I picked up, there was no response. Just a heads up - it might be worth considering that this could be a potential scam. Stay vigilant!4 yearsI was prompted to provide my banking information in order to receive a refund, but I specifically requested a cheque instead. She was quite uncooperative and declined my request. I then mentioned that I would ring back for clarification and inquired about her contact number or email - to which she promised to send me an email. However, the email address turned out to be invalid, and to make matters worse, the address linked to an outdated warranty she mentioned from six months back was a whopping twenty years old! What a dodgy situation - definitely sounds like a scam!4 yearsI fell victim to a refund con.Submit Your Own Report (0161 520 2133)
