Reports on phone number 01704791761
4 yearsI had a call from someone claiming I was due a refund linked to my bank account. They seemed to be trying to scam older people who live on their own. Be careful with these sorts of calls, they're not genuine.4 yearsOn 20th April 22, I got a call on my BT landline in Southport, 01704 791761. When I answered, there was nothing but dead silence and no one spoke. I ended the call pretty quickly. After reading some other reports, I'm glad I didn't stay on the line - looks like it’s a scam being flagged on bt.com/scams.Southport4 yearsIt rang a few times before cutting off.4 yearsI reckon this chap assumed I was a total muppet! He just rang me out of the blue with a ridiculous tale and was probing for all sorts of personal details like my full name, address, bank info, and NI number. Take heed! This con artist was incredibly relentless and rather pushy.4 yearsGot a call from 01704 791761 on my home phone, some scam about a refund for a washing machine overpayment or whatever. I told them I don’t own a washing machine, and the lady said they must have mixed up something and then just hung up on me! Obviously, I’ve blocked the number now. Ridiculous!4 yearsGot a call from a lady with a foreign accent who gave her name as Kathleen. She asked if I was XXXXXXXXXXX, but I could hear loads of different voices in the background like it was a call centre. When I told her I wasn't the person she wanted, she did say it was a wrong number. Before she ended the call, I managed to say she was a scammer.Kathleen4 yearsI got a call from a woman with a foreign accent working in a call centre. She asked if I was someone else, and when I told her I wasn't, she just ended the call. Bit odd really.4 yearsAvoid this number at all costs, it's just another refund scam. They kept going on about some refund for a washing machine I never bought. Pretty sure their plan is to steal your bank info under the pretense of giving you money back, then clean out your account. I saw a show on BBC about these scams and how risky they are. Don’t get caught up in it.BBC4 yearsAbout 15 mins ago I got a call from 01704791761. They were saying I’m owed money back for some washing machine service I paid too much for. They were really pushy about not sending a cheque and asked me to give them my bank details. I told them it should just come back from the same account I paid with. Then they passed me onto some “supervisor” who kept going on about how they needed the account number, not the whole long bank sort of thing. It all felt a bit dodgy to me.4 yearsComplete rip off - they tried to get my bank info claiming I was owed money back.4 yearsGot a call from some Asian bloke tryin to give my missus a refund of £119. She told him straight to piss off and hung up on him. Seriously, what are the cops even doing about this? These scams just keep on going. They need to be nabbed and locked up. I'd like a half hour locked in a cell with 'em myself.4 yearsGot a call from 01704791761, and he kept calling me sir, but completely messed up my name which is a woman’s name. Said he was trying to help me get a refund or something. I told him I just saw him on TV pretending to help people but it was a scam, then I hung up on him. The guy spoke with an Asian accent, by the way.4 yearsWe both get pensions and are disabled, me and my hubby. Got a call from 01704 791761 about a refund, but it felt like a scam to me. Really unsettling, we don’t want these sort of calls at all.4 yearsI got a call from someone saying I was owed a refund for a washing machine service plan - thing is, I’ve never even had one. They kept pushing me to give my bank info to sort the refund out. When I asked about their company, they said they cover lots of different brands, but they were really insistent on getting my details. Seems like a total scam to me.4 yearsThese scammers are truly wicked, targeting the elderly and vulnerable with fake refund schemes to steal what little cash they have.

Cheers.4 yearsGot a call from 01704791761 about a supposed refund and they wanted my bank info. I told them I’m not sharing any details on the phone. Said if there’s a refund, just send it by cheque. They just hung up on me.4 yearsI wasn’t near my phone when it rang, so I missed the call. It went straight to voicemail, but the person on the other end just dropped the call as soon as the voicemail kicked in without saying anything.4 yearsInquired about the washing machine, then proceeded to ask for my bank information.4 yearsHonestly, I’m sick of constantly blocking these calls. I don’t have any PPI to claim, so just stop bothering me. Why not find a proper job instead of wasting everyone’s time? I’m really not interested.4 yearsYeah, it’s definitely Santander ringing, but the way they keep calling out of the blue and asking for details feels really dodgy, like a scam. I’m not interested in these calls at all and I’ll only ever deal with my bank if I’m the one making the call, not the other way around. These days, spoofing numbers is way too common and scammers make it look legit without much effort. Please stop ringing me pretending to be Santander - if I need anything, I’ll get in touch with you myself.Santander4 yearsThey asked me for my address, bank details, national insurance number, and even my name. I just gave them a bunch of rubbish instead.National InsuranceSubmit Your Own Report (01704 791761)
