Reports on phone number 01672493978
5 yearsI had a rather similar experience, believing the call was authentic, so I went ahead and shared my information. But then they abruptly informed me they couldn't provide any assistance and just cut the line. Quite frustrating, really!5 yearsSimilar to many others in this situation, I had an unsettling experience. Just after I got my insurance quotes from GoCompare, my phone went off with that same number calling me. It would be wise for GoCompare to bolster their website's security to prevent such incidents from happening.GoCompare5 yearsThey claimed to be from Go Compare but I wasn’t buying it at all, so I just ended the call straight away.5 yearsThe person on the other end was silent and didn’t respond at all.5 yearsJust left the site and already getting cold calls, what's the use of comparison sites if they start ringing straight away? Definitely won't be going back there.5 yearsI encountered a similar situation earlier today. I picked up the call, had a brief chat, and lo and behold, they were merely attempting to present me with alternative insurance quotes. Isn’t it puzzling how there's this overwhelming attitude of dread and panic among folks in our nation lately? Honestly, can't we just take a step back? They were simply offering a service-nothing more. At no point did they request my bank or card information; they merely posed the same queries as Go Compare, then informed me they couldn't uncover a better deal. That's as far as it went. No fraud involved, no one got harmed, no aggressive timeshare pitches, and definitely no grand conspiracy at play.Go Compare5 yearsSomeone just rang me from this number, reckon it was a car insurance firm as I’d been looking up car insurance deals recently. Didn’t pick up and just blocked it.5 yearsI just checked Go Compare like loads of others and this number kept ringing me non-stop in a few minutes. Didn't pick up and now it's blocked.Go Compare5 yearsThey keep ringing me over and over.5 yearsGot a call from 01672 493978 but didnt answer coz I didn’t know the number, plus they left no voicemail. I did search for car insurance on Go Compare just yesterday (24.03.2021), and it looks like this number calls folks right after they do that, like others have said. I’ve blocked the number now. When it comes time to change my insurance, I’ll ring them myself. Really can’t stand these cold calls!Go Compare5 yearsThey rang me but didn’t drop a message, so I just blocked the number.5 yearsBlimey, I can’t believe I went with my instincts and shared my information! However, when she inquired about my registration number, I politely declined and said I would look it up myself. That really seemed to tick her off because she ended the call in a huff!5 yearsThey rang my missus after I’d been trying to sort our car insurance via Go Compare. She wasn’t very nice to them, told them to jog on! No idea how they got our number since we’re ex-directory. I only handle this stuff online now, phone calls like that are just dodgy scams in my opinion.Go Compare5 yearsWhen I picked up the phone, there was a recorded message saying nobody was free to talk. This happened right after I had just gotten a quote from Go Compare insurance.Go Compare5 yearsIf they don't leave a message it’s gotta be some sort of annoying robocall.5 yearsSaid they were from GoCompare - total scam, definitely not legitGoCompare5 yearsSome bloke claimed he was from Go Compare. Pretty clear it was a complete con. I told him off quite sharply about where to shove his call. Go Compare is just online, they don’t have anyone calling up people like that.Go Compare5 yearsThey called me but I didn’t pick up, no texts either.5 yearsI'm not keen on receiving any further calls from this number, as it might be dodgy. Best to steer clear!5 yearsDidn't get a message from this unknown number on my voicemail. Like others said, the call showed up right after I used the Go Compare site.Go5 yearsNever got the actual insurance firm's name, but it was defo linked to Go Compare.Go Compare5 yearsI got a call when I was browsing the Go Compare site. They said they weren’t actually Go Compare but “partnered” with them somehow. Tried to push me some quotes that weren’t from Go Compare. I just told them to stop calling me and ended the call.Go Compare5 yearsI was browsing Go Compare when my phone rang, and for a moment, I assumed it was them reaching out. However, after doing a quick search on the number, I realised it wasn’t legitimate. So, I took the precaution of erasing all my information from their site. It's alarming to think I nearly fell for it - I could've easily ended up sharing my card info and losing a fortune. Going forward, I'll be steering clear of Go Compare entirely.Go Compare5 yearsI recently experienced something similar; they claimed they’d connect me with one of their associates, but after waiting for a minute or two on hold, I decided to end the call. I shan't be utilising Gocompare in the future.Gocompare5 yearsI had a similar experience. I was browsing Go Compare and within a mere five minutes, this number dialled my phone. I chose not to pick up. The number was +441672493978.6 yearsJust wrapped up my experience on the Go Compare website, and it feels pretty similar to what others have expressed.Go Compare6 yearsUnknown caller, didn’t leave a voicemail.6 yearsI encountered a similar situation not long ago. The details were strikingly reminiscent of what I just read. It's intriguing how these experiences seem to repeat themselves, isn't it? It makes one ponder the common threads that weave through our lives.6 yearsI don't normally pick up calls from numbers I don't recognise, but I had my wireless headphones in and accidentally answered. It was Go Compare checking how I found the car insurance I’d just got from their site. So, this number seems legit.Go Compare6 yearsI don’t recognise anyone from Marlborough, so I’ve no clue who might have been on the other end of the line. To be honest, I’m quite wary and suspect it could be a scam call.Marlborough6 yearsGot loads of annoying cold calls that feel almost like harassment after I used the gocompare site.6 yearsGot a call from this number after looking up car insurance on Go Compare. When I picked up, there was an automated voice saying "Sorry, we’re unable to take your call right now."Go Compare6 yearsGot a couple of calls not long after checking out Go Compare for a car insurance quote.6 yearsI missed this call, but unlike a bunch of others commenting, I haven’t used Go Compare in ages. So honestly, I’ve no clue who that might be.6 yearsGot a robo call telling me I’m being charged with tax evasion or something like that. Very dodgy!6 yearsI didnt pick up since I didnt know the number, but it'd be a huge coincidence if it wasnt Go Compare, especially as I just used their site to check a car insurance quote like 10 mins before they rang.Go Compare6 yearsIt’s just GO COMPARE car insurance, folks, no need to freak out, nothing sketchy going on.6 yearsDidn’t pick up since the number was unfamiliar. Happy I didn’t though, cause I got a few calls after that from some shop trying to get me to come and compare prices. They didn’t leave any voicemail either, so pretty sure it’s a scam.6 yearsThis is from GOCOMPARE, and like many folks have said, once you check out their website and do the comparisons and give YOUR PHONE NUMBER, you might get a ring from a UK call centre. Everyone, chill out - it’s not really something to give a scary warning about. Let’s try and keep the reviews here truthful and helpful.6 yearsJust like loads of people said before, I used Go Compare for a car insurance quote yesterday evening, made it clear I didn’t want any calls, yet here we are getting bothered anyway.Go6 yearsRegarding the number 01672493978, or 01672 493978: I recently spent a bit of time on the Go Compare site and shortly after, I noticed I had a missed call from 01672 493978. After doing a bit of digging on this fantastic site, it seems that the individual or organisation behind this number is still on the prowl for unwitting targets using Go Compare. As the saying goes, "Keep your wits about you; a dodgy character could be lurking!" Best of luck to all.Go Compare6 yearsI picked up but said nothing. Then she goes “hello.” I said hello back and then she just ended the call.6 yearsI had a similar encounter. They rang me right after I did a comparison on Go Compare, then asked me to stay on the line. That’s when I decided to end the call.6 yearsBlimey, is it just me, or has Go Compare swiftly handed my number over to someone else? I actually picked up the call, only to be met with an automated message, as if I was talking to a flipping answering machine! What a nuisance!Go Compare6 yearsLike many others, I’ve had a call from this number after using Go Compare. I didn’t answer the first time, but after seeing what others have said, I’ve gone ahead and blocked it now.6 yearsLooks like this is happening to loads of us. I had a call straight after checking car insurance quotes on GoCompare - actually, I was still on the site! I ignored the call since I didn’t know the number. Come on GoCompare, you need to fix this, it’s just not right!Go Compare6 yearsI’d advise against picking up this call; it seems they're after some personal information from your device.6 yearsGot a call on my work phone for some random person, told them to bugger off!6 yearsI didn’t answer the call since the number was unfamiliar to me. After looking it up here, I found out that, like others, I had just been on Go Compare on my PC.

So it aint a scam after all.Go CompareWiser Connect6 yearsI got a call from this number while I was on Go Compare looking for quotes. The woman claimed she was from Go Compare and offered to help, then passed me to another person who started asking for my info. Something felt off, so I searched the number 01672 493978 Marlborough and Google flagged it as a scam. When I asked if she actually worked for Go Compare, she admitted she didn’t, just worked with them somehow. I hung up straight away. Be careful, these days you never know who to trust!Go CompareGoogle6 yearsThey rang me looking for details shortly after I’d used Go Compare.6 yearsBlimey, that’s quite alarming! I experienced something similar, and I was connected through a supposedly “secure” VPN service too.BlimeyVPN6 yearsI just noticed that I received a call from this number after browsing Go Compare, and I have no clue who it is. I'm beginning to think it might be connected to my search on their site, but I didn't even have a moment to look at the results before the phone rang, so I decided to just let it go unanswered!6 yearsAsked me for bank info for an insurance quote, seriously??? Just hung up.6 yearsJust received a similar call a short while ago. It felt rather suspicious, so I decided to end the conversation abruptly.6 yearsGot a call claiming to be from Go Compare but it was dodgy, kept asking for personal stuff like my bank card info and even my mum’s maiden name. Felt really fishy to me.Go Compare6 yearsGot a call after using Go Compare for car insurance. They asked for my personal info again even though I’d already provided it. Bit annoying really.Go Compare6 yearsI was browsing the Go Compare website when I got an unexpected call claiming to be from another insurance comparison service.

They requested some personal information to offer me a quote, but instinct kicked in, and I promptly declined and ended the call.Go Compare6 yearsGot a call right after I visited the GoCompare site.
