They addressed me by name and mentioned something about an insurance policy for a washing machine that I don't even have, claiming it was set to expire.

Received a call earlier, attempting to peddle some boiler insurance. I let her prattle on for a bit before we eventually ended the conversation.

When I picked up, there was nothing but silence on the line. I decided to call the number back, and an automated message informed me that the service was unavailable. I've now blocked the number as it clearly seems to be a scam!

Received a call from this number earlier. There was a cacophony of sounds in the background, and not a word was uttered. Suddenly, the caller hang up abruptly! Absolutely infuriating! 😡

They didn't bother to leave a message on my voicemail. Clearly, it's just a dodgy scam or nuisance call.

Put a stop to this con artist!

I was offered some sort of insurance coverage—specifically breakdown protection—for my washing machine, oven, and refrigerator at a rather tempting 35% off, simply because I hadn’t lodged any claims in the last year. I probed multiple times about the expiration date of my supposed policy—one I clearly don’t have—and was met with the same response: “You haven’t claimed in the last year.” Then she had the nerve to ask if I was keen on this policy, to which I firmly replied, “Considering it’s a scam, absolutely not!” And just like that, she hung up…

*I mean, “give” is a rather generous term, isn't it!

The call went straight to voicemail, but oddly enough, they didn’t bother to leave any message.

I received a call from a chap with a distinct Asian accent, sounded like he was in a bustling call centre. He mentioned my name and wanted to discuss heating and insulation for my home. I wasn’t interested, so I politely declined and promptly blocked the number.

I noticed a missed call while I was out and about, but there was no voicemail left behind.

Beware of this number; it’s definitely dodgy. I had a call from a chap with a thick foreign accent claiming to be called Edward—no way that’s his real name! He started rambling on about some washing machine insurance or cover. I cut him off before he got too far, told him I don’t even own a washing machine, and promptly hung up. Just avoid it!

I only discovered the identity of this number by checking the Who Called Me reviews. I must say, I concur — it’s likely just another dodgy cold call or a scam, especially since they didn’t bother leaving a message.

I'm completely baffled by this mysterious call I received. I simply refuse to engage with unsolicited callers—does anyone actually do that? I wonder if the caller's social worker is aware of their incessant and bothersome cold calling antics.

A woman rang me up claiming to provide insurance for kitchen appliances. She seemed to have my name and address sorted. I hung up on her, but then she tried again without leaving a message on my voicemail. Odd, isn’t it?

The caller didn’t bother to leave a message.

Called at half three. They left a voicemail but it was just some strange guttural sound with no actual speech. Quite odd, really.

Received a call around quarter to four this afternoon. I opted not to answer it since the number was unfamiliar to me. There was no voicemail left either. Clearly, it seems like some sort of scam attempt. Today alone, I've been bombarded with at least eight of these dodgy calls—though I’d prefer to use a more colourful term for them! (12/07/23)

They managed to mention my last name, but didn't catch my first. After offering a quick apology, they disconnected the call.

Yet another dodgy call has come through! I've flagged it.

Received a call from a bloke trying to offload "kitchen appliance insurance" – feels like just another dodgy scam!

I’m quite concerned about the insurance for my washing machine, especially as it seems they’ve got hold of my name and address. Just noticed this a little while ago, and it’s playing on my mind.

I'm utterly fed up with this persistent nuisance of scam calls. It's high time someone puts an end to it!

Beware of a potential washing machine insurance con! They seemed eager to offer coverage, despite my lack of awareness regarding the age of the appliance. Upon questioning them about their identity on two separate occasions, their response was far from clear and quite murky. Quite dodgy, if you ask me!

Just received a dodgy call today. Some chaps were peddling extended warranty for a fridge that we don’t even have insurance on! What’s more alarming is that they knew my name and had our phone number, which is a bit unsettling given that we’ve only just got this number and shared it with a handful of folks at most. Take caution, everyone!

A blocked number rang through without leaving a message. Honestly, isn't it high time we held the phone providers accountable for this? We’re shelling out our hard-earned cash for these services, so one would expect them to enhance security measures for their customers at no additional expense.

Another bunch of tricksters at it again, are they?

Received a call about ten minutes back - but they didn't bother to leave a message.

I received a call on my landline from the number 01975 238 740, but my answering machine picked it up, and they didn’t bother to leave any message. After looking it up on this site, I found out it’s associated with a scam. I’ll be blocking the number and won't be engaging with it further. Cheers for the heads-up!

Provides emergency signalling devices, yet seems quite unresponsive to inquiries.

Indeed, I've just received a rather unsettling call where they asserted that the warranty for my refrigerator had expired. It’s quite disconcerting because they seemed to be aware of my name. We’ve only recently switched to this new phone number, and only a handful of friends and a select few financial institutions have access to it. This raises quite a few red flags!

Received a call at 09:20 on the 19th of June with no voicemail left. Based in the Hull region.

It seems that the call was originating from Aberdeen. Unfortunately, I couldn't quite grasp what the chap was prattling on about, but I did catch a few snippets regarding the warranty on my freezer being expired. The funny thing is, I don't even own one! So I swiftly told him to do one. Classic scammer, if you ask me.

I received a call from a bloke with a typical foreign accent who was insistent on getting me to confirm some details about nsma. I turned him down flat. He claimed to be ringing from "Home Appliances," but I wasn't convinced at all and told him as much. Suddenly, he hung up! What a shame, I was really hoping for a proper chinwag!

Allegedly calling about some kind of appliance cover. When I requested her to clarify the name of the “company,” she abruptly ended the call. It’s both frustrating and a total waste of time.

01975228740 – After a rather lengthy barrage of foul-mouthed insults and some truly questionable suggestions for what I might like to do, many of which would definitely land one in hot water in certain jurisdictions, the scoundrel abruptly cut the line. I suspect it was an insurance con, although to be honest, I wasn’t paying much attention.

Received a call that was prevented by my BT Guardian.

I've no clue who was on the other end, but it had all the hallmarks of a scam. I decided to end the call and swiftly blocked the number.

It seems I've stumbled upon a bit of a con regarding washing machine insurance. What a dodgy racket!

I didn’t recognise the number, so I let it ring out.

I received a call regarding the warranty on my fridge freezer, which I found rather puzzling, considering that my appliances are separate entities and neither of them has any sort of extended warranty!

They mentioned my name directly, which felt a bit odd. When I asked who was on the line, there was no clear answer. They claimed to be from a home assistance service, or so they say. I suspect it could be some sort of telemarketing ploy, but in all honesty, it seems more like a scam to me. So, I decided to cut the conversation short and hang up.

Unidentified caller - I received a call at 4:31 PM on the 14th of June. They cut the line before I could answer, and I’ve come across some info suggesting this number is linked to spam activity.

It seems my washing machine's warranty has run its course. What a bunch of tricksters!

I received a call from some outfit claiming that my fridge warranty had run out and they were offering to provide me with an extended warranty. I didn't even stick around for the entire sales pitch. It was clearly a scam.

I rang up to inquire about my washing machine cover as it was nearing its expiration date. It was baffling how they couldn't identify which model I owned! After being given the runaround for what felt like ages, I finally lost my patience and told them to take a hike!

I received a rather peculiar call asserting that I'm eligible for a complimentary medical alert pendant.

Just another bothersome telemarketer making a nuisance of themselves!
