Many find the calls unsolicited, repetitive and sometimes aggressive, with callers refusing to accept refusals and hanging up abruptly.

Just like others said, I got a cold call about extending the warranty on a "Hotpoint" washing machine I don’t even have. I went off on the caller for about five minutes, letting him have it, which felt pretty good. Surprisingly, he didn’t hang up on me and kept asking if I wanted to extend my warranty anyway. Honestly, this business reeks of scammers, wouldn’t recommend anyone to deal with them.

I received a call from someone claiming my washing machine warranty had expired and asked if I wanted to extend it. He insisted I’d already renewed it back in February over the phone and even said they had my bank details. I told him I’ve never insured any appliances, but he kept pushing that I had. The weird thing is, I'd changed my bank account, so I have no idea where he supposedly got my info from. After I kept denying it, he just said he’d cancel it and then hung up on me suddenly.

Answerd right away but the person on the other end dropped the call instantly.

Just like every other time, it was another call about an extended warranty on my washing machine. I told them to buzz off. Then about half a minute later, a different number popped up and some bloke claimed I had agreed to the warranty and wanted my bank info for a direct debit. Honestly, these calls are coming non-stop every day now. I’m not the calm pensioner I used to be, and my responses are getting pretty rude, I must admit.

Received a call earlier today regarding some kind of warranty renewal for my washing machine. Oddly enough, I don’t have any warranty in place-my machine is actually nearly two decades old! It’s got scam written all over it, if you ask me.

Got a call where there was just silence on the other end, but I could hear people chatting in the background like a call centre. Really weird.

Got a call from this number earlier, but they hung up just as I was about to pick up. After reading the comments here, I’ve decided to block it. Cheers!

A while back, I got a call about my washing machine's warranty being up. Didn't jot down the number at the time. Seemed strange cos I bought it in May 2014, so I reckoned the warranty would last until next May. I ended the call and looked it up - turns out I was right. Today, the same number rang again with the same claim. I told the caller they were wrong and ended the call. To add to it, they even got the brand wrong - ours is an Indesit, not Zanussi.

Oh great, it's that washing machine muppet again trying to peddle an extended warranty! Honestly, I couldn't care less about being told they've called previously. I made it clear I'm not interested, and what does he do? Claims he’s never rung me before and then cuts the line without a second thought. I mean, really? Just a right numpty! Just a reminder for everyone out there: you really don’t need a warranty for things like washing machines or fridges. They are meant to last a decent amount of time, typically around six years, and if they go faulty, you're entitled to a repair or swap from the retailer under the Sales of Goods Act. This sort of call can be downright nuisance, and let’s be honest, it can be quite perilous for those who might be more vulnerable.

this bloke actually had my name and address right, said he was ringing about my washing machine - even mentioned the shop i got it from. i quickly said no thanks and cut the call before he could say more.

Got three calls from this number, first two times there was just silence. Then on the third call, they actually said my name but didn’t say anything else before hanging up. Didn’t hear about any deals or services or whatever. Proper annoying!

I've received two calls from this number today, yet each time I pick up, there's nothing but silence on the other end. Quite odd, isn't it?

Got a call where they knew my name and claimed my washing machine insurance was running out. They offered to renew it cheaper, but I told them I never insured it in the first place and needed to look into it. They said alright, they'd ring back and then ended the call. They even mentioned the right make of my washing machine, so I guess they got my info from ao.com since that's where I purchased it.

Received a call claiming my washing machine insurance needed renewing and they requested my bank information. When I suggested they use the details they already had on file, they abruptly ended the call. Clearly, it was a dodgy scam attempt.

I got a call saying my washing machine insurance needed renewing and they wanted my bank info. I told them to just use the details they already have, then they just hung up. Pretty clear it was a scam.

this number has called me a couple times selling insurance for my washing machine. it’s a bit creepy since they already had my name, address and even the brand of my washer. almost had me convinced because of how much they knew about me.

Got a call from this number right during tea time, and they asked straight up for me by my first name. Not knowing who it was, I asked what company they were from. They wouldn't say and just kept repeating my name and the address. When I pressed again, they finally said something about my Hotpoint washing machine. I politely asked what they wanted about it, and then the bloke just hung up on me. Then, about 8 minutes later, I got another call from a different number but the same spiel. I told them exactly what I thought this time. Fingers crossed I don’t get bothered again.

This number has called me a few times now, trying to sell insurance for my washing machine. When I mentioned they’d already called me earlier, the person on the line denied it. I told him it was actually the third time I'd been contacted, and he just ended the call after that.

Received a call informing me that my washing machine insurance had expired. Since I’ve never taken out any such policy, it was quite clear it was a con!
