4 yearsHad yet another tedious cold caller trying to peddle life insurance to me. I promptly informed them to take my number off their list as I’m past the age where such policies hold any appeal.4 yearsJust as I pick up, the line goes silent. It’s quite irritating, to be honest!4 yearsI keep getting calls from this company Beneficial, they try to push life insurance and other stuff. They’re always switching up their phone number, so it’s hard to block them. Honestly, they won’t leave me alone and it’s pretty annoying. Best just to ignore ‘em, I reckon they’re not to be trusted.Beneficial5 yearsHe called me up asking about my Life Insurance. When I tried to find out which company he was from, he got all defensive. I asked him once more and he started acting like I was being rude. After I asked a third time, he just ended the call.5 yearsGot a call from 1200 on 22/05/21, they were asking for Mr and gave my last name. When I asked for their first name, they seemed clueless and then just ended the call. Their English wasn’t great but they were polite enough. Blocked the number anyway.MR5 yearsI didn't know who it was, so I just let it ring out.5 yearsSome guy with dodgy English rang me up and asked if it was me by name, then jumped straight into talking about “renewing my yearly policy”. I said, “What policy?” and he went on about “life insurance”. When I told him I don’t have any life insurance, he started going on about how my family would struggle if something happened to me - charming, right? I told him my mum’s the only family I’ve got left and she’s sorted out anyway, so it’s none of his business prying like that just to make a quick sale from cold calling. Blocked the number straight away.5 yearsGot a call about some insurance scam, honestly think these should be banned completely!5 yearsI got a call from a lady doing a survey, but her English was pretty bad and there was loads of noise in the background. I kept saying "Sorry, I can't make you out," over and over till she finally hung up.5 yearsGot a call from some bloke saying I needed to update my life insurance, so I asked which company he was from and he just hung up on me. Proper annoying, what a rubbish scam!5 yearsI got a call from some noisy call centre and the person on the line barely spoke English. They claimed they were ringing to update my life insurance details and somehow knew my full name. When I asked for the policy number and which company it was with, they just flipped it around and asked if I even had life insurance. I told them if they’re cold-calling, they should’ve checked if my number is on the TPS list, and then they just abruptly hung up. Definitely felt like a scam.Telephone Preference Service5 yearsGot a call from an insurance company about renewing my policy, but I never signed up with them!5 yearsThis number rang me but they didn’t leave any voicemail or message.5 yearsI chose not to pick up.5 yearsI got a call about life insurance the other day. I told them I’m well past the age for that kind of thing. They said they’d take me off their calls list, but I’m not holding my breath! We’ll see if they stick to it.5 yearsGot a call from some life insurance people. I told them I’m way too old to be interested. They said they’d take me off their calling list. Guess I’ll believe it when it happens.5 yearsThis number just rang me again - definitely a dodgy insurance scam. Stay clear!5 yearsGot a call when I was just making dinner.

Ended up hanging up and blocked the number straight away.5 yearsGot a call from some guy Kevin claiming to be from an insurance firm. Couldn't catch most of what he said since his English was pretty poor. Obviously a scam, and yeah, my number’s on the TPS list.KevinTelephone Preference Service5 yearsThey never told me their name or the reason for calling, just somehow knew my last name! I told them I wasn’t going to say who I was unless they explained who they were and what they needed. Then I warned them their number looked suspicious, might be a scam or something, and as soon as I said that, the phone cut off!5 yearsGot a live woman on the line pushing a product, no clue what it was about. Blocked the number straight away.5 yearsSaw the number but didn’t pick up since it looked strange. When I looked it up later, it showed up as "likely scam!" So, I’ve just blocked it now.5 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be from an insurance review firm, but when I spoke to them, they didn’t say where they got my information from at all. They also never mentioned that I wasn't obliged to use their "services". Quite confusing, really.5 yearsI picked up the phone and there was no one talking on the other end, then it just disconnected.5 yearsI got asked if I had life insurance, I said no. Then they asked if I wanted life insurance, I said no again. They kept pushing, like "You don’t want life insurance?" and I kept saying no. Finally, they just gave up and said ok, sir. Honestly, hands down the loudest call centre I’ve ever dealt with.5 yearsThey kept asking if I wanted life insurance, and I kept saying no. First, do you have life insurance? No. Next, would you like to get some? No again. Then they asked why I wouldn't want it, and I just said no once more. Honestly, that was probably the loudest call centre call I’ve ever had.5 yearsGot a call from someone who somehow knew my name, then pushed life insurance on me.
