Dodgy call from some place called Platinum Home Services or similar. They tried to tell me my washing machine warranty was expired. I asked how they even got my number and they claimed "the manufacturer". I then asked what brand my washer was and they said Beko. I told them it wasn’t a Beko and laughed so much they just dropped the call. Classic scam.

Spent nearly 12 mins on the phone with a woman called Alisha Mckay (bit of a made-up name, I reckon) pushing some white goods insurance. I told her I wasn’t interested in buying but she said she could still post me the documents since she already had my address. Then she asked for my bank info and sort code, saying it was totally safe, but I wasn’t having any of that and said no.

Got a call about my washing machine insurance supposedly running out soon, and they wanted me to confirm my name, but I didn't. When I asked them where the machine was, they told me an address that I moved from more than 8 years ago. After I pointed this out, the line just cut off suddenly.

I've been getting calls every single day from them. First, it's this creepy recorded voice accusing me of some criminal stuff! Then, they drop a voicemail on my phone 121 - seriously worrying.

My washing machine's warranty is about to expire soon. It's covered by that big tech firm we bought it from, and the coverage should last until 2024. When I got a call, the lady sounded like she was just reading lines from a script. I even asked if she could speak proper English, and she responded with a strong Indian accent, saying she was indeed speaking English to me. That’s when I just told her to get lost.

On 11/09/2020, I got a call from 02038137778. As soon as they caught the automated message saying we’re on the Telephone Preference Service, they just hung up. I found out who they were by ringing 1471 afterwards.

Got a call from someone claiming to be premium home care services, kept saying they’d send assistance or something. No idea where they got my number from, especially since I’m over here in Glasgow. Someone needs to put a stop to this!

Got a call from some Platinum whatever folks saying our washing machine warranty was about to expire. I told them there wasn’t even a warranty for it, and they started getting all pushy, insisting it was legit and arguing back. Eventually, I just hung up and said goodbye. Seriously, just scammers trying to rip people off.

I’m not sure what company it was, but the moment they said they were selling something, I just said no thanks and ended the call. Feels like it’s the same lot that tricked my 85 year old mum into handing over £99.

Just like every other scam call, he told me my washing machine’s warranty had run out but I could pay £95 to renew it. Then he upsold me a platinum plan for £220 which supposedly covered five different appliances. I let him go on for a bit, then told him I’d rather just buy a new washing machine since mine’s about a decade old. And yes, I’m definitely over 60 as he guessed (well past that!), but no, I didn’t arrive here on some banana boat or something.

No idea what her name was, but she said she was from something like Platinum Homecare. She claimed my washing machine warranty had expired, which was a ridiculous guess since I just had it fixed under warranty yesterday! When I said that, she switched to asking about an earlier warranty and if I wanted to cover any other appliances. I said no and then blocked her. Total scam. Seriously, how do these people live with themselves?

Today I got a call from someone named Monica who claimed I had a home care plan and said I was a platinum member - which I've never heard of before. She was really pushy, asking over and over for my bank info, not my card details, saying she could help me save cash since I was paying around £350 a year. I kept telling her I wasn't giving out my bank details, but she wouldn't drop it. Honestly, if someone isn't aware or is vulnerable, they might easily be tricked by this. Just be cautious, folks!

At first I figured it was a mate cos the person was dead quiet, so I picked up with my Sky shield on. Some lady called Shanice said my warranty on electrical stuff was about to expire. I told her I’m not interested in insurance. Then she said it’s not insurance, I paid £700 last year! This year it’s £220 ‘cause I’m apparently a low risk customer. Yeah right, no thanks. She wanted to get some new info from me but there’s no way I’m giving that out. And guess what? The call just ended abruptly. Number was 02038137778.

Got a call saying my warranty for the fridge, washing machine and microwave had expired. They claimed I paid £400 when I bought them (my fridge is well over 20 years old though!). If I signed up again now, it would just be £220, apparently a great deal. The cover supposedly includes all electrical stuff in the house, even a sky box - which we definitely don’t own! Asked for some time to decide but honestly, I would steer clear of this one! 🤬

02038 137778 called me yet again. Another dodgy scam from some overseas call centre pretending to be Platinum Insurance. They said our appliance insurance had run out and that they couldn't just renew it online because our credit card had expired or something, asking for new card info. Complete rubbish since we don’t even have any appliance insurance with them. Watch out for these random cold calls!

Got a call from a woman claiming to be about a guarantee on an electrical item linked to my number. At first, I thought it was legit since I bought a washing machine about a year ago. But soon it felt like a shady sales pitch or some kind of scam. She actually knew my name, address, phone and roughly my age. I told her I wasn't interested but she kept going on about some 25% off deal before finally cutting off. Proper annoying and felt like harassment!

I got a call from a woman claiming to be ringing about my warranty for an electrical item, which threw me at first since I did buy a washing machine just over a year ago. But it soon became clear it was some kind of scam. She had loads of my details too - name, address, phone number, even an estimated age. I told her I wasn’t bothered, but she kept going on about a 25% discount offer before finally hanging up. Proper annoying and felt like harassment!

I reckon I’ve stumbled on a brilliant way to handle those pesky phone calls. Just grab yourself one of those airhorn cans. Next time you pick up a call from someone you don’t know, and they start on with their sales chat you don’t want to hear, give the horn a good blast. Bet they won’t bother ringing you back after that!

Somebody from a call centre kept ringing me up asking about ???. They were really pushy and when I tried to find out the reason for the call, they just kept going over the same thing again and again. Didn't really get any clear answer in the end. When I mentioned it sounded like a call centre, he flat out denied it, even though there was definitely noise from other people talking in the background. I also asked how they found my contact info but all I got was that scripted reply repeated over and over.

Got a ring from 02038137778 just now. We use callsafe here that blocks any calls unless we accept ’em, and when I picked up, a woman’s voice said something like "you have a call" then mentioned "Monica" before they cut off. If they try again, no worries - the call blocker will sort it out and I won’t even have to answer.

Got a call from some lot called Platinum Home Care, quoting me £220 for fixing white goods like other folks said. The bloke on the phone had an Indian accent and turned really nasty when I refused to give my card info. Weird thing is, this was the first dodgy call that actually got through my call blocker during the lockdown. Watch out, sounds like scam call centres from India are still busy trying to rip people off while we’re all stuck inside.

Since getting our new phones, which let you block unwanted numbers and add new ones easily, this was the very first random call we got. The guy said his name was either James Johnson or Johnston, claimed he was calling from London, but never explained why he needed to talk to my husband. He sounded really unfriendly and curt. I told him straight up I would be blocking his number and then ended the call.

They keep ringing me non stop, even after I told them to stop bothering me. A few times they just hung up without saying a word, but I could hear loads of noise from a call centre in the back. They tried selling me some warranty for my washing machine and fridge. Now I just ignore any calls from 0203 numbers. It's a bit unfortunate cos it might actually be a legit call.

A guy with an Asian accent called me up and somehow already had my name and address. He was saying my washing machine warranty had run out, but I told him I’d replaced it recently and it’s still under cover. He didn’t want to drop it though, kept banging on about other appliances and how he could sort me a better deal. Asked how much I was paying now, saying he could beat it. I kept turning him down, but he just wouldn’t quit, going on and on until I finally ended the call. Not sure why I even entertained it for a moment, seemed like a total scam right from the start.
