01628524444 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01628524444 👆 is reported as a persistent scam call primarily concerning supposed washing machine insurance, often quoted as around £9 per month. Callers frequently claim to know personal details like name and address, creating the illusion of legitimacy. The callers, often of South Asian accent, pressure recipients to disclose bank or card details and sometimes ask to cancel existing direct debits. Many recipients confirm they have no such insurance and have flagged these calls as fraudulent, with some callers hanging up abruptly or refusing to provide verifiable company information. Despite multiple reports to the TPS, the calls continue. It is advisable to avoid sharing personal or financial information and report such numbers to the official authorities to help curb these nuisance and potentially harmful scam calls.

I received a rather overzealous call, attempting to sell me a cheaper insurance policy for my washing machine. The caller was quite relentless, so I decided to block the number.

I just got a call from that number, and the bloke said I was being charged £9 a month for Sky maintenance. He even knew my full name and where I live! I told him I don’t even have Sky and then he just ended the call on me. This kind of thing really winds me up, it shouldn’t be happening at all.

This bloke, an Asian fella, said the person I was after wasn't in, but he kept pushing me to say my name. I told him I didn’t have to share that info, and then he started getting a bit arrogant with me.

So, I got a call saying I have to pay £9 every month to keep my Sky box working. Like a few others, I just ended the call straight away, so I’m not sure if they wanted my bank or card info or not.

Got a call from this number today. They tried to convince me to cut down how much I pay for Sky Protect. After that, they asked me to stop my direct debit and then wanted my bank card details. I wasn’t having any of it and when I refused, they just said they couldn’t do anything for me.

Called me but ended the call straight away. When I tried ringing back, it said the number wasn’t recognised. Strange!

Got another call from that number again. The caller knew my name and where I lived, so I nearly believed it was legit. I asked what brand my washing machine was and he just said, "Surely you know, you live at that address." I told him my insurance was all sorted already and I still had three years left on my cover.

This number rings our phone every single day and we just let the voicemail handle it now. It's baffling that the TPS hasn't taken action against it yet. Judging by the other comments, it's pretty obvious this is some sort of scam.

I got a call from 01628524444 on my landline. When I picked up, there was just silence for nearly 10 seconds before they hung up. It felt a bit dodgy, probably one of those scam calls messing about like before.

Got a call from a guy who sounded Asian, asking about washing machine insurance. I told him I didn’t have any and just ended the call. Same old thing again.

Got a call from some Asian bloke who said his name was Marcus, trying to sell me insurance for my washing machine. When I asked which company he was with, he just couldn't say. Didn’t even bother giving him my info, seemed like a total scam from the start.

Last evening I got a call from a guy with an Asian accent. He claimed he was calling to lower the insurance on my washing machine. He sounded like he had a lot of info on me, so I nearly believed him since I really do have insurance on my Hoover washer. But then he asked for my bank details, which set off alarm bells. I called my insurance provider straight away and they confirmed it’s a scam. They said they’ll investigate it further. Watch out for this one!

Had a very similar thing happen with an Asian bloke who somehow knew my name. He kept going on about me supposedly paying insurance for my washing machine. I told him that wasn't true at all. He kept insisting, saying, “Are you certain, madam?” I told him I was 100% sure since my washer's brand new. Then he just hung up on me, no warning or anything. Proper rude behaviour.

Got a call from someone with an Asian accent who somehow already knew my name. They claimed it was about my washing machine insurance. When I told them I didn’t have any, they just said they wouldn’t bother me anymore and hung up!

I picked up and said 'hello', but there was dead silence for about 10 seconds before the call just ended on its own.

Got a call from a guy who sounded Asian, but his accent was hard to get. He was talking about my washing machine or something. I said I don’t own one and that I’m with TPS. I warned him I’d report him and even saved his number on my phone. Ended the call straight away.

Had a call just like this. They claimed I was charged £9 but offered to lower it to £7. My hubby asked them to email the details to me before hanging up on the call. Honestly, I’ve never even had insurance for my washing machine.

Had a call from an Asian bloke who kept messing up the pronunciation of my name. He claimed he was adjusting my washing machine’s maintenance plan from £9 down to £7 per month. It became obvious he wasn’t legit when he started asking what make my washing machine was - surely they’d have that info already? Plus, we don’t even have any maintenance plan, and the machine’s barely a year old. Knew right away it was a scam. I’m fed up with these sneaky people always trying to con folks who are busy and trusting. Another one going straight to the call blocker.

100% a con. I don’t even have any insurance for my washing machine. I just told the bloke to shove off.

Like others have mentioned, this call was obviously a scam pretending to be about a washing machine warranty. The people on the line sounded Indian or Asian, so I really doubt the number was actually based in the UK. Total rubbish!

i got a call from a guy who used my name and said there was some washing machine insurance thing costing about 9 quid a month. i said i don’t have any insurance like that and told him to take my number off their list. looking back, i probably should have mentioned i’d report them to the tps too.

Got a call from a lady offering a cheaper washing machine breakdown cover but she didn't ask anything about the make or age of my machine. When I asked for the company name, she said it was Home Warranties Co. I mentioned I wanted to look them up to see how it compared to my current plan, and then she just hung up on me. Bit strange if you ask me.

For sure a scam. Some bloke with an Asian accent and really bad English called me. He was going on about insurance for a washing machine I don’t even own. Total rubbish. P

Some bloke rang me saying I was paying £9 a month for washing machine insurance. I asked who he was with, and he said it was a firm called Home Warranties. I told him to shove off. Tried calling the number back, but it didn't show up anywhere. Total scam, if you ask me.

Be careful if anyone calls claiming to sort out your washing machine contract and asks for your bank info. I got a call like that recently, seemed legit at first but they wanted my details. Don’t give out your bank stuff to just anyone, always double check who you’re dealing with!

So irritating!
