Got a call from someone saying they were with BT about taking out old copper wiring. Looked up the number later and it was registered to Gamma. Seems a bit dodgy, could be a scam.

Claimed to be representatives from 3 Mobile, can you believe it? They offered me any iPhone I fancied! I played along, used a fake name, which seemed to really rile them up. After about a quarter of an hour, I finally dropped the bomb, letting them know I was fully aware they were up to no good. Quite the laugh!

My elderly aunt got a call out of the blue about some warranty refund. It sounded dodgy to me, like a typical cold call scam targeting older folks. Wish people wouldn’t try taking advantage of them like that.

Got a call from the same number this morning. The person said they were gonna give me back £119 and asked if I’d like it straight into my current or savings. I told them no, just send me a cheque. Then she went on asking for my bank details to pay the cheque. I just said, why not donate it to charity instead.

I think I’ve been charged way too much for my washing machine insurance, feels like a total rip-off. When I tried to get a refund, it turned into a nightmare, like they were dodging it on purpose. Feels like I got scammed big time. Avoid this sort of thing if you can!

Had no idea who it was. I answered with a simple hello but got nothing back at first. After a while she started talking and asked if she was speaking to me by my name. I just stayed silent, didn’t say a word. Eventually she hung up. Honestly, ignoring them is the best approach. They get all annoyed and honestly, I’ve stopped bothering with them now!

I could barely hear her properly, all that racket in the background, sounded like a washing machine was running close by. So I told her to quit all this scamming nonsense and maybe find a real job instead. Then she had the cheek to ask if I could help her get one! Honestly, it’s crazy how these people aren’t stopped from pulling these cons.

Got a call from 02045244245 saying they needed to pay me £119 for an overpaid warranty. I told him straight up it sounded like a scam and hung up. Then he phoned back insisting it wasn’t a scam, but I told him I’ve never even had any kind of extended warranty. He got a bit rude after that, so I just ended the call again.

I can't recall the company's name, but they called about some appliance insurance that was supposedly 'overpaid'. When they began asking for my bank details, I told them I'd prefer to pay by cheque instead. After that, they started wanting loads more info, so I just ended the call.

Got a call from someone with a heavy accent, claimed I was owed a £119 refund because I was supposedly overcharged for a washing machine. Asked me to verify my name and address like we were on some official call. Thing is, I bought my washer around half a year ago from a big retail chain, and it was at their standard price. Total scam if you ask me!

got a call from some bloke calling himself jacob, claiming they’d accidentally charged me an extra £119 for my washing machine and wanted to sort out a refund! i told him i was baffled and asked when exactly this supposed overcharge happened. he said more than five years ago - which made me laugh because the machine’s pushing 19 years old and it was my husband who bought it anyway. sounded like a right scam to me, and i wasn’t going to entertain it. i told him off in no uncertain terms to buzz off. oddly enough, i kind of enjoyed giving him a piece of my mind.

Got a call from some bloke with a South Asian accent claiming he was sorting out insurance repayments for a washing machine my dad had, who’s actually passed away and never had any insurance. They even had my address, so I told him he could post a cheque. Then he asked for a reference number - which he should’ve already had if this was legit - and that just gave him away. I told him where to shove it!

I got a call from some bloke named Henry saying I was owed a refund on my washing machine insurance. I told him, since he obviously had my address, he could simply send me a cheque through the post. His accent was pretty hard to understand, seemed a bit odd. Then I asked him what brand the washing machine was. When I pointed out that our Hotpoint had Samsung written all over it, he just abruptly ended the call. Definitely felt like a scam or some kind of phishing trick.

I've been receiving calls on my landline from a company claiming that I've overpaid on some insurance and that they owe me money. They've asked for my bank information, and this has happened twice in just two days! I’ve declined to provide any details, yet they keep insisting. They won't even consider sending a cheque through the mail, which is troubling. As a 75-year-old pensioner, their persistence has really made me feel quite anxious.

I received a call today from a chap claiming to be associated with an insurance refund for my washing machine. He introduced himself as Harry, though his accent was quite distinctive. Given that my washing machine is ancient and I've never taken out insurance for it, I'm perplexed as to how he could possibly offer me a refund for something I haven’t even paid for! As a pensioner, I’m quite savvy to these kinds of ruses. I made my feelings clear to him, insisting he cease his calls, especially since this isn’t the first time I've been bothered by such nonsense.

The other day, my 99-year-old mother, who lives independently, received a call from this number. It really threw her off balance, and she started to worry that she might have disclosed her bank card information. This led to a flurry of calls to the bank and caused her quite a bit of unnecessary anxiety.

I received a rather dubious call claiming there was a £119 refund waiting for me regarding my washing machine insurance. However, they insisted on verifying my postcode first, which struck me as odd. When I questioned them, they kept insisting on my postcode to process the refund. Naturally, I wouldn’t provide it since they were the ones who initiated the call. Eventually, they hung up. Quite fishy if you ask me!

Absolutely! One would think it would be straightforward to put an end to this, wouldn't it?
