01626391198 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01626391198 👆 is reported as a persistent scam operation targeting UK residents with calls falsely claiming washing machine or home appliance warranty expirations. Callers, often with foreign accents, use personal details such as names and addresses, likely sourced improperly, to add legitimacy. They pressure recipients for bank or financial information and provide little to no company details, frequently ending calls abruptly if challenged. The majority of users warn others to avoid engagement, block the number, and exercise caution, highlighting this as a well-known fraudulent activity with potential financial risk. These unsolicited calls are invasive and have been linked with spoofing tactics, making verification and refusal the safest response. Users are advised to report such calls to official channels and remain vigilant, especially vulnerable individuals.

3 yearsPretty clear it was a call centre. I picked up and they just hung up straight away.3 yearsYesterday around 5:14pm, I got a call from a bloke with a foreign accent who sounded like he was working in some call centre. He actually knew my last name and said my washing machine warranty was ending soon. Then he tried to sell me an extension for 2 more years. Thing is, my machine is over a decade old, so I’m pretty sure any warranty ran out ages ago. I told him I’ve never paid to extend any warranty and told him to shove off. Total scam, watch out for these dodgy calls!3 yearsSo, this person called about a washing machine, but I don’t even have one! Was thinking about messing with him a bit... not sure if I should.3 yearsGot a call from some Indian guy about a washing machine, kept messing up my name. Told him off and hung up. They tried ringing again but now I've just blocked the number.3 yearsI missed the call but looked up the number on 'who called'. Decided not to call back. Appreciate everyone's advice, cheers!3 yearsGot a call from a bloke who actually knew my name, said something about an emergency device you wear round your neck. As I told him I wasn’t interested, he just hung up on me. This was the second time I’d heard from that number in just a couple days. From what I’ve read before, this caller pushes all sorts of stuff like insurance, banking, and even furniture. Really wanna find out how they got my contact details in the first place. Smells like a proper SCAM to steer clear of.3 yearsGot a call about washing machine insurance, and they already had my name and address. The first person handed me off to some 'Senior Supervisor' who said they'd send me a letter. They kept pushing for my bank details. When I asked about my washing machine brand, they claimed they didn't have any info on it. I ended the call quite firmly.3 yearsGot a call today, they already had my name and told me my washing machine insurance was up for renewal. Sounded dodgy straight away, so I just hung up. Definitely a scam.3 yearsIt was definitely one of those call centre calls. They even said my name, so clearly my info's been passed around somewhere. Didn’t hang about to get the usual sales pitch though...3 yearsI've received a similar message, urging me to renew my washing machine's warranty.3 yearsThey said it was to do with insurance for my washing machine, but honestly it was just a con. Don't fall for it.3 yearsGot the same ring, it’s one of those dodgy calls about selling home appliances. Pretty sure it’s a scam like everyone else mentioned.3 yearsI ended up blocking this scammer after they called me.3 yearsI got a call from someone named 'Simon' saying my washing machine warranty was expired. Total scam, watch out!Simon3 yearsAccording to a trusted website, the 01626 prefix serves Newton Abbot and nearby places. However, this specific number isn’t part of an officially assigned series. So if you’ve been called from it, chances are someone’s just pretending to be whoever they want. Bottom line? If the person’s hiding who they really are, you can bet they’ve got dodgy intentions, likely after your money or savings. Stay alert!Newton Abbot3 yearsI got a call from a bloke with a foreign accent, then he handed me over to a woman, also sounding foreign, who was trying to get me to renew my fridge freezer insurance cheaper than last year. They asked me to verify my identity with bank or card info. Strangely, they knew my name and address but couldn’t tell me the brand of my freezer! They kept pushing, but I got wary and said I didn’t have the details to hand and to ring me the next day. Unsurprisingly, they never did!3 yearsOn 24th May 2023 around 10:47, a call came from 0162 639 1198. I answered but didn’t say a word. Nothing could be heard from their side. Seems like a probable scam call on my landline.3 yearsSomeone called saying my washing machine insurance had to be updated. I asked him to tell me the make and model they had recorded. He guessed Bosch, but I said that’s not right, try once more. Then he just ended the call.Bosch3 yearsThis has to be one of those dodgy appliance scams, best to just block the caller.3 yearsI got a call from an Asian man pushing a warranty extension for a fridge freezer that I don’t even own. What was weird is he couldn’t even give me the purchase date or the brand and model name. I told him he’s got just one life and maybe he’d be better off spending it on something worthwile rather than making dodgy scam calls.3 yearsTwice now I’ve had calls about my washing machine insurance expiring, and I’ve already told the bloke both times that the machine was thrown away.3 yearsTotally been hit by scammers lately.3 yearsSomebody called about a washing machine service contract, sounded like a total scam. I told the bloke straight up that he was dodgy, and then he started shouting at me! Had an Asian accent and spoke really poor English. Decided to block the number after that.3 yearsGot a call from a woman with a strong Asian accent, said her name was Daisy. There was loads of noise in the background while she asked for the person who owns the house. She was pushing some extended warranty thing for a washing machine that supposedly had expired. Bit strange really since we only had a brand new washing machine fitted less than a day ago. She then gave me this other number to ring back on 01224607119, which I looked up and saw a bunch of bad reviews that match this scammy vibe. Definitely dodgy, so added both numbers to my blacklist.Daisy3 yearsGot a call asking about some pendant alarm I’m supposed to have from an alarm firm. The minute I told them I don’t own one, they just cut me off. Shocker, another dodgy scam...3 yearsI’m going to ask Daisy for a response, but doubt she’ll actually give me one.Daisy3 yearsI got a call from someone with a strong Asian accent, offering washing machine insurance. Obviously, just another scam trying to trick me.3 yearsGot a call from someone with a strong foreign accent claiming to represent Home Appliance and wanting to "renew my appliance insurance." They refused to share any details about the company or even a website. As soon as I mentioned I’d double-check things on my own, they just hung up on me. What a sketchy experience!3 yearsMy washing machine insurance just ran out and when I tried to renew it for another two years, they kept pestering me. I had to tell them to quit with the scams!3 yearsI got a call from a guy with an Asian accent, claiming his name was Jack and talking about a warranty for my washing machine. I told him the warranty was actually through the supplier, and then he just ended the call.Jack3 yearsWhenever I’m not home and my missus thinks it might be one of those dodgy calls, she just tells the person on the line they’ll have to talk to me instead. Judging by what folks are saying here, it seems like this number is probably just trying to scam people.3 yearsI was trying to renew my washing machine’s insurance for another two years since my old one ran out, but they just kept going on like they were trying to rip me off! Told them to quit with the dodgy sales tactics!3 yearsI usually don’t pick up calls from unknown numbers, but this time I got a voicemail instead of a live person. They said they were from some tech company and said they’d ring me again later. Guess I’ll just ignore it like all the others.3 yearsWhen I answered the phone, someone just said hi and then it suddenly went dead.3 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were offering a free grant for a mobility alarm system, claiming to be home help. Seemed a bit dodgy to me. I’ve had a few calls like this before but usually the line would just cut out before anyone spoke. Today was the first time a woman actually answered, and she was quite polite, just so you know.3 yearsI was completely fed up with those persistent robocalls, but I've now managed to block them!3 yearsGot a call from 0162631198 about my washing machine insurance running out, but I don’t even have that insurance! The woman on the line was polite and had a foreign accent, and weirdly she knew my name even though I never told her. I ended the call straight away. Watch out for this scam!3 yearsI received a call from an overseas chap who claimed to be called Kevin. He was very keen to inform me about extending my washing machine's insurance warranty and was rather insistent on obtaining my banking details. I politely declined, of course!Kevin3 yearsThey rang up here asking for someone else who lives at our address. Left her totally confused.3 yearsI got a call that I didn't answer and there was no voicemail or anything. After checking this site, turns out it’s some kind of scam.3 yearsGot a voicemail saying someone would ring me back or I could give them a call. The number was blocked though.3 yearsGot a call earlier but they didn’t say anything or leave a voicemail. Looking at what others have said here, it seems like it might be one of those scams.3 yearsI just got a call from a bloke, sounded like there was loads of noise in the background. He was going on about some alarm emergency or something. Bit creepy as he actually knew my name! I just hung up straight away.3 yearsGot a call from this number again, reckon it might be one of those insurance or washing machine dodges. Let it ring through to voicemail but they never left a message. Seems fishy to me.3 yearsGot a call from some bloke named Kevin, sounded foreign, trying to sell me an extended warranty for my washing machine. A bit too late for that, cheers! This ain’t the first time we've been bothered by these calls, just the number keeps changing. Could cost you a fortune if you’re gullible enough to believe it, but since there’s no proof, it stays as unknown on my end.Kevin3 yearsWatch out for this number, it’s been reported as a scammer trying to get your personal details.3 yearsEnded the call once the answering machine kicked in.Submit Your Own Report (01626 391198)
