6 yearsTotal rip off. Best thing to do is just ignore the call and end it immediately.6 yearsKept ringing me up trying to get me to buy insurance for my appliances, really annoying so I'd say steer clear.6 yearsHad a rude girl call me up trying to push fridge-freezer insurance on me. Sounded like a classic scam, no thanks!6 yearsI picked up because it looked like a legit London number, not some dodgy foreign one or hidden caller ID like the annoying scammers usually use. But it was totally silent on the other end. Pretty weird!London6 yearsWhat a load of rubbish about the car crash!6 yearsI’ve been getting calls from some Indian scammer a couple of times daily. Now, I just keep the phone off the hook to deal with it.India6 yearsGetting calls from another scammer in India, it's happening a couple of times daily now. I just keep the phone off the hook whenever they ring.India6 yearsI didn’t answer the call and there wasn’t any voicemail left - check the older comments - definitely a scam again.6 yearsI didn't pick up and just let it go to voicemail, but they didnt leave any message.6 yearsno one picked up but i reckon it was some kind of scam call from abroad.6 yearsI received a rather odd call from this number earlier today-just around noon, if I recall correctly. It was completely silent, which is rather peculiar! This is actually the second time I've had a call like this within the last week. The first time, the number was withheld, which adds to the mystery.6 yearsI told them straight up I wasn't interested and then just ended the call - was about some fridge freezer cover.6 yearsThey dialed my number and wanted to talk to me by my name. When I asked who it was, they mentioned something about a fridge. I got suspicious right away and chose to stay quiet. After a little while, the caller hung up.6 yearsI inquired about a person's name, but they refused to disclose either their identity or the reason for their call. They claimed I was being confrontational and abruptly ended the conversation.6 yearsI rang a number that’s not listed in the directory, hoping to reach a particular person. However, the individual on the other end was rather uncooperative, refusing to disclose their identity or the purpose of my call. When I inquired politely, they labeled me as confrontational and abruptly ended the conversation. It strikes me as rather dodgy-likely some sort of scam. I can't fathom why they'd have our details otherwise.6 yearsHere we go again with those dodgy appliance scams. Seems like those call centres from Asia are up and running once more. They’re really good at tricking older folks who might not be on the ball. Once they’ve got hold of your bank info, they’ll attempt to empty your account and send it straight to their bosses in India. The cash is gone for good, just like loads of these scams whether they’re from abroad or even here in the UK!IndiaUK6 yearsFor the last three years, I've been getting calls every so often from different numbers, all asking for someone I've never heard of.

The caller just ended the call without saying anything. Cheers to those who shared their experiences!6 yearsThis number keeps ringing me constantly.

After reading through the other posts and seeing how similar they are, I’m pretty sure this is just a con.6 yearsGot a call again this week, another 0203 number, trying to push freezer insurance that nobody asked for. I’m down at my mother-in-law’s place, who’s definitely the kind of person these lot are aiming at. Properly shocking behaviour!6 yearsCalled back, nobody said a word. Looked it up here and yep, just another scam. Blocked straight away.6 yearsGot a call from a bloke with an oriental accent trying to sell me washing machine insurance, but I knew it was dodgy.

Honestly, best thing to do is just hang up straight away, or if you want, give em a piece of your mind before cutting off. Seems like we’re getting at least three or four of these each week now. Proper annoying!6 yearsGot a call about some freezer insurance or something, seemed dodgy so I just hung up. Glad I dodged that scam!6 yearsGot a call this morning from some other firm about the fridge freezer warranty, can’t even keep track now! When I first spoke to the guy about extending it, I just told him it’d be great if I actually had a warranty to extend. They were quite polite, but honestly, these calls are a bit annoying.6 yearsReceived a call at 10:34 on the 29th of July, 2020. We picked up, anticipating a few calls due to a recent loss in the family. When we inquired about the caller's identity, he failed to clarify who he was. He simply hung up without further ado. I will be putting this number on my block list.6 yearsGot a call about extending the warranty for a fridge/freezer we don't even have. I politely declined and ended the call.

I told her I wasn’t keen and then she just ended the call.6 yearsJust had a call from some total muppets, typical ones who get all aggressive if you don’t hand over your info. Proper shady lot, best to just block them straight away.6 yearsA bloke with an Asian accent answered, said "good afternoon," then just cut the call.6 yearsPicked up the phone and barely said anything before they just cut me off.6 yearsWhen I said I wasn’t interested in extending the fridge warranty, the caller got really nasty and even said things like “you’re going to die.” Proper rude and abusive behaviour!6 yearsBeen getting repeated calls from this number, it's rang me two times now. Quite annoying really.6 yearsTotally disgusting scam, they were asking about my dead mum. What a bunch of utter wankers.

Guess what? He rang right back and started swearing at me, telling me to go away in a not-so-nice way. Hilarious! Nothing beats catching these scammers out, honestly.6 yearsGot a call saying my fridge freezer repair warranty was up, which was alright I guess, but when I asked what brand my fridge freezer was, they couldn’t give me a straight answer.

Seems like they're just casting a net for information, if you ask me.7 yearsHad this number ring me twice today. First time, it was a lady talking with an American accent, then a guy with what sounded like an overseas accent. Oddly, the bloke knew my name! Both kept pushing some spiel about a 'free new boiler'. Told them to jog on. Honestly, why is it so hard for the regulators to crack down on these annoying cold calls?7 yearsSome bloke called David rang me up, his accent sounded really foreign. He was trying to pitch a new boiler under some government programme. I told him I wasn’t interested as I didn’t need a new boiler, and before I could even finish saying thanks for the call, he just cut me off!David7 yearsPicked up the phone but there was a lot of noise in the background, so I just ended the call.7 yearsI picked up the phone, but as soon as I did, the person on the other end just dropped the call.7 yearsGot a call from some boiler scammer earlier, I just told the bloke to shove his boiler where the sun don’t shine and hung up straight away.7 yearsGot a call from a woman who said she was my late wife, then just ended the call straight away.7 yearsCalled me but left nothing, why can't the phone firms fix this?

Sounds dodgy to me, probably just another con!7 yearsnot sure about that one7 yearsGot a call from a woman speaking with an American accent, saying she was from National Grid Energy. When I told her I don't get calls from NGE, she just hung up on me. I'm on the TPS list, so if they're based here in the UK, cold calling like that is against the law.
