8 yearsJust got a call about insuring my TV, sounds like a total scam to me. Be careful, don’t get roped into paying for something useless!8 yearsGot a call from some Asian bloke trying to flog TV insurance. Seriously, why doesn’t BT just block these annoying scammers already? It’s ridiculous how they keep getting through.BT8 yearsWhen I answered, no one was on the line. The number looked a lot like a bunch I’ve seen before. I usually just let these calls go now, feels like a waste of time.8 yearsGot a call from a bloke with an Asian accent asking questions about our TV. Definitely a scam, so best not to share any personal details with them.8 yearsI picked up the phone but got nothing on the other end. So I googled the number and found these reviews. I've had calls like this before, where they claim they can lower your TV insurance to just 7 quid if you hand over your bank info - total scam. Really scary stuff. Wouldn't it be great if there was an official website where folks could report these numbers and get them blocked for good?Google8 yearsSo, had a call from someone who sounded Asian, chatting about TV cover or whatever. I just messed about, feeding him dodgy info and kept him going in loops for like 4 or 5 mins. Eventually, he gave up. I'd be careful though, reckon it might be risky if you spill any real personal stuff to them. Better to waste their time than get caught out, I reckon.8 yearsThis number keeps ringing my 82-year-old mum non stop. They keep saying she can get a free TV but only if she hands over her credit card info. It's just awful, really takes advantage of elderly people like that.8 yearsI chose not to pick up.8 yearsGot a call from an Asian woman really fretting about my TV warranty running out soon.8 yearsI received a call today regarding my television insurance, claiming my premiums were set to decrease. When I inquired about which company was on the line, the caller abruptly stated that it was none of my concern and promptly hung up. How discourteous!8 yearsIt was an Asian woman who called, but I didn’t wanna get involved in a chat so I just ended the call.8 yearsI got a call from an Asian woman talking about my TV being delivered or something. Didn’t really make sense so I just ended the call.8 yearsSomeone called me saying my TV cover was going to be cheaper. I let her continue talking for a bit, then I asked where she was calling from. She said Home Care Assist. When I mentioned I hadn’t heard of that company before, she just ended the call. Pretty fishy if you ask me!Home Care Assist8 yearsI got a call from an Asian lady telling me that the cover on my TV insurance was about to expire. She wanted to talk to two people she named, but both of them have sadly died. I told her nicely about that and then ended the call.8 yearsI picked up and got nothing but quiet on the other end.8 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Asian accent claiming my TV warranty would be extended for another 3 years, even named a brand that’s not mine. When I corrected her, she got quite rude and kept pressing me to tell her the actual brand. I just didn’t want to say and then she abruptly hung up on me. Seriously watch out, it’s definitely a scam.8 yearsI just ended the call as soon as I picked up.8 yearsNo answer when I called back!!8 yearsNo message was left.8 yearsGot a call from some company offering a TV service plan for a telly I got from a big shop I know. They said the paperwork is on its way in the post. I said cheers and ended the call before they could explain how the whole scam actually works. Sounded dodgy from the start.8 yearsI let it ring a couple of times before I decided to block it - been getting a bunch of calls from numbers that all look the same.8 yearshad a call from someone with an accent i think from south asia, asking about my dad regarding his tv. i gave them the address like they wanted but told them loudly and clearly my dad passed away years ago. ended the call right after. since the tv was bought from a famous place, maybe they got info from some data breach or an old phone book or something. definitely felt like a scam or phishing attempt. pretty dodgy stuff!!South AsiaSubmit Your Own Report (0161 792 3207)
