01618219881 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01618219881 👆 is reported as a persistent and aggressive scam operation targeting vulnerable and elderly individuals, often under the guise of appliance or white goods insurance renewal. Callers claiming to represent "The Maintenance Team" or similar company names request banking details, sometimes pressuring victims into setting up direct debits or divulging sensitive information. Many victims report unsolicited calls despite being registered with the Telephone Preference Service. The organisation uses vague or misleading company identities, frequently with no legitimate contact details provided. Several encounters involve attempts to intimidate or pressure for payments, and letters or documentation received lack verifiable information. It is strongly advised not to share any financial information, to remain vigilant against unsolicited calls, and to report any suspicious activity to authorities promptly.

3 yearsBEWARE This company called All Covered UK kept ringing my mother-in-law loads of times, even though she told them to stop. She’s very poorly and found it really distressing. They even pressured her into setting up a direct debit, which we only found out about from a letter without any proper details like a date or address - total scam if you ask me. My husband, who has the Power of Attorney, is sorting things out with her bank to cancel any payments and get the money back. Don’t get caught out like this!All Covered UK4 yearsJust got a call from 01618219881 offering to switch my direct debit to a cheaper deal for kitchen appliances. Felt a bit dodgy if I'm honest.4 yearsThere are a few different business names all linked to Mr Adam McMaster's home address, which makes me think the fraud claims could be legit, given the proof from this site, the calls we've had and the letters that arrived. I really hope anyone who’s fallen victim to these scams can now use this info to report things to the police. If anyone wants to get in touch with me for more help, feel free to drop me an email at [email protected]Adam McMaster4 yearsPART 3 I asked who exactly I’d be setting up my direct debits with, and the bloke on the phone said the company was called ‘All UK Covered’. He told me if I wanted to continue, I should ring the number 0161 821 9881 and provide my details there. So I rang 0161 821 9881 and spoke to someone at a call centre who said he was from ‘The Maintenance Team, White Goods department’. We played along as if we were real customers, asking loads of questions to verify the connection between ‘All UK Covered’ and these people who were pretending to be from the same company name.PARTAll UKThe Maintenance TeamGoodsAll UK Covered4 yearsA few weeks back, we started hearing from quite a few upset customers, mostly about their older or vulnerable family members getting calls that looked like they were coming from us, but turned out to be something dodgy. It seemed like there was a firm pretending to be our company, trying to wrongly sell white goods insurance. To get to the bottom of it, we decided to look into things ourselves. We tracked down the suspicious phone number all these complaints were pointing to - 0161 821 9881 - and gave it a ring to see what was going on.PART ONE4 yearsMy elderly father, who suffers from dementia, has somehow ended up sharing his banking information. I can't quite recall the specifics of the conversation, only that he unwittingly disclosed his details to them. It's quite concerning!4 yearsI got a call from Alana at The Maintenance Team regarding my home appliance insurance. She told me since I never claimed anything, my monthly fee was going down from £32 to £19.99. She came across as really believable and convincing. She then requested my bank’s 6-digit sort code and asked me to create a password for security, which would be needed if a colleague called and asked for my account number. As I’m typing now, my phone keeps ringing, but I’m ignoring the calls!AlanaThe Maintenance Team4 yearsSo, I got a call from Alana who said she was from The Maintenance Team, offering to lower my monthly fees from £32 down to £19.99. She seemed quite convincing and requested I'd create a password for security so that a teammate could get in touch to sort out the details. She asked for just the six-digit sort code from my bank, but didn’t want my account number. Now, as I’m writing this, the phone’s ringing once more, but I’m ignoring it this time!AlanaThe Maintenance Team4 yearsI got a call from some maintenance people about home appliance insurance. It caught me off guard since I’m on the Telephone Preference Service list and my number isn’t listed anywhere publicly.Telephone Preference Service4 yearsIt appears to be some sort of maintenance firm. They tried to pull a fast one on me, attempting to con me into shelling out for the renewal of my washing machine insurance. They were quite keen on getting hold of my bank details, which set off alarm bells.4 yearsGot a ring from a woman named Jennifer claiming to be from some "Maintenance Team." She was chatting about my mum’s white-goods warranties but honestly didn’t seem to have much clue about the specifics. She then asked for a password so they could call back and supposedly grab bank details. Sounded pretty convincing but I’ve read loads of warnings that this is likely a scam. Really, don’t fall for it or hand over any personal info!JenniferThe Maintenance TeamEmma4 yearsTotal ripoff, be careful!4 yearsMy elderly mum got duped by this group called tmt, or "the maintenance company". They convinced her to hand over money for some kind of “insurance renewal” on her washing machine, which didn’t even exist. Now, they’ve got her bank card info.
