1 yearI am so fed up with these useless idiots who just wont stop calling me! I block every single one, but somehow they always manage to call again from different numbers. Cheers for helping me figure out who's behind it all!! Wishing you loads of success!! Judy L.Judy Lugg1 yearGot a call from this posh bloke saying I’d apparently agreed to something, but the moment I asked for details, he started swearing at me.2 yearsGot a call from a man with an Indian accent, telling me my fridge-freezer warranty was up. Problem is, we actually have a separate fridge and freezer, not a combined one. Total scam, as usual. Blocking the number doesn’t help since they just switch to new ones all the time.2 yearsHad this dodgy number ring me out of nowhere, definitely a scammer. Went straight to blocked, no chance of chatting with them!2 yearsHad a woman ring me up saying I might qualify for some kind of medical alert gadget. I told her straight up she was trying to scam me and then I ended the call.2 yearsThere was so much noise in the background, sounded like a big office with loads of people talking, so I just ended the call.2 yearsGot a call at around 2.20pm on the 21st Feb. Didn’t know the number so I let it go to answerphone and the person just hung up.2 yearsGot a call around 8.30 this morning, some lot saying they were from a medical alert service. They reckoned we might qualify for one. When I asked who sent them our way, they just said no one had. We have had a few health worries recently, so it caught my attention. They said some kind of survey happened nearby and they were ringing to share details. Couldn’t really answer the stuff I asked, so I just blocked the number - felt like a scam to me.2 yearsGot a call from some bloke about insulation, told him I’m all sorted and ended the call. He rang straight back asking why I’d hung up. I just told him I wasn’t interested and hung up again.2 yearsI received a phone call from a company claiming they were keen to organise a complimentary inspection for spray foam loft insulation. When I explained that we don’t have that sort of insulation, her response was that they'd still carry out an inspection on what we do possess. The level of pressure was quite intense, as she kept insisting that we definitely needed their services, despite my consistent refusals. She mentioned that our name would be removed from their list after the survey, which hardly reassured me. The call was extraordinarily loud; it sounded like a bustling call centre in the background, making it difficult for me to hear her clearly, something I kept pointing out to her, yet she just continued incessantly reiterating her script. In the end, she either hung up or got disconnected... very odd!2 yearsNo message was left, so I've just blocked the number.2 yearsI got a call from a lady with an Asian accent saying it was about my Virginmedia account. I told her I wasn’t buying it and then she just ended the call.Virginmedia2 yearsI picked up the phone and some bloke with an Asian accent started talking about inspecting loft insulation. I told him he was actually the third caller telling me the same story. I told him I wasn’t interested and asked him to remove my number. He got quite nasty and said they’d be ringing me daily. When I chuckled and said “Seriously?”, he just slammed the phone down. Honestly, I think I’ll just stop answering my landline unless it’s someone I know or I’m in the mood for a scrap with some dodgy caller!2 yearsGot a call on my answerphone that just said 'Missed Call' with no message left. Pretty fishy if you ask me - the usual dodgy stuff.2 yearsI just found out my fridge freezer warranty has expired and I need to sort out a new contract for it! What a pain.2 yearsI got a call from someone called Sam who claimed to be with a Home Help Company, offering a lifeline alarm thing because apparently I qualified. He already had my name, which was a bit odd, but the number he was calling from made me suspicious right away. I just told him to piss off. Pretty obvious they were trying to scam me.Home Help CompanySam2 yearsGot a call from some bloke from India saying my washing machine warranty had run out. He offered to cover it for another 2 years for just £6.00. Kept pestering me about the brand of the machine, so I told him to take my number off their list and never ring me again. I've blocked the number now.2 yearsThis number keeps ringing me like twice or three times every week. I did pick up once a while back but haven’t bothered since. Feels like some sort of scam to me, so I just ignore it now.2 yearsGot a call from a woman with a clear call centre vibe, you could hear other people chatting in the background. She said we qualified for a massive discount on insulation for the house. I asked how she had that info, and she said it was from their records. Then I pressed her on where exactly those records came from, and she mentioned some government database. When I told her we’re on the TPS and that she was ringing up unwanted, and that I’d report her, she just cut the call. Definitely sounded like one of those dodgy calls trying their luck.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsI got a call about being eligible for some sort of mobile medical alert gadget. When I asked how they got my number, considering I'm on the mobile do-not-call list, the person said it was based on some survey results. You could tell she was just reading off a script. When I pushed her for a straight answer about the source, she got a bit rattled and mentioned it came from a database. I then asked where they bought this database from, and suddenly she started apologising, looking flustered, and said it was all a mistake. As I kept questioning, she again said sorry and then just hung up on me.2 yearsToday, I got a call from someone pitching those lifeline services supposed to help older folks. I just hung up straight away. Stuff like that could be really risky for people who are elderly and vulnerable, honestly.2 yearsI got a call from what sounded like a call centre earlier, and some woman was on the line saying my washing machine warranty was nearly up. I told her it actually ran out ages ago, and besides, my washing machine’s knackered from all the use so I just do my laundry in the river now. Funny enough, she disconnected right after that. Guess not everyone gets a joke!2 yearsSome woman called herself Mary and said she wanted to do a free check for loft insulation. She didn't even have the right address for me but kept pushing to send someone over. I just told her it wasn't worth it and to forget it.Mary2 yearsWhen I picked up, there was a pause before a lady with a foreign accent started talking about loft insulation. Didn’t ask for the call, seemed like a total scam to me. I told her straight off it was a waste of time and that I'd be reporting her. Then I just hung up.2 yearsThis morning I got a call from a bloke with a weird accent talking about my washing machine. I didn’t bother, just blocked the number straight away.2 yearsGot a ring out of the blue about loft insulation. Sounds dodgy to me, probably just another scam.2 yearsThis morning, I missed a call from 02045688448 and didn’t even pick up, letting it ring straight to voicemail. Nothing was left on the answerphone, which makes me think it’s one of those dodgy scam calls I’ve heard about on here before. Definitely wouldn’t trust it.2 yearsThey keep ringing my landline even though I’m on the TPS list. It’s gotten so annoying that I just let it go to voicemail now. I hear the phone ring, then I look up the number on this site before deciding whether to call back. Proper hassle!Telephone Preference Service2 yearsGot a call from a lady with a foreign accent, sounded Asian, said her name was Catherine from Homestyle Improvements. She asked if I’d had insulation put in ages ago and if it needed replacing now. I told her I hadn’t got any insulation in this house. Then she mentioned something about a free fibreglass check. I said no thanks, I don’t own the place, and ended the call.CatherineHomestyle Improvements2 yearsA bloke called saying he was from an insulation inspection company or summat like that. Felt a bit dodgy to me.2 yearsI got a call from 02045688448 but didn't pick up since I didn't recognise the number and they didn't leave any voicemail.2 yearsGot a call from someone saying they wanted to talk about a grant for loft insulation upgrades. When I told them I’d be blocking their number, they got quite rude about it. So yeah, number's blocked now.2 yearsBefore picking up, I always look up any number I don’t recognise first.2 yearsIgnored call since it was from an unknown number. No voicemail was left, so figured it wasn't anything urgent. Have blocked the number now...2 yearsLike many on here have mentioned about dodgy calls, scammers seem to hate getting sent to voicemail, it really seems to discourage them. So I’ve just reported and blocked this number now.2 yearsI suspect it’s a dodgy call. When I answered, the bloke took his sweet time before replying. He mentioned something about a potential Government Health Alert that’s supposedly being introduced across the country. I told him I wasn't keen and promptly ended the conversation.Government Health Alert2 yearsJust got a call this morning right before 9, but they didn’t leave anything on the voicemail. I noticed they didn’t hang up right away when my answerphone picked up though. Since my number is on the TPS list, this caller clearly isn’t following those rules.Telephone Preference ServiceTPS2 yearsGot a call about some washing machine insurance scam, got it blocked straight away.2 yearsI'm pretty sure they already have my number linked to my name and address. It seemed like they wanted to scam me out of my bank info. What's even more unsettling is that they probably know about a big purchase I've just made.2 yearsI reckon they never dropped a voicemail, maybe my call blocker’s working its magic! Totally with the others here - best to just block these numbers straight away.2 yearsOh please, that washing machine warranty is a total joke - as if I'd fall for that nonsense! Can't believe they expect us to believe such rubbish!2 yearsI’ve been getting loads of calls from the 0203 number recently and just blocked it. Thought they might’ve switched to a new number but seems not. So I just stopped answering.3 yearsJust got a call from someone saying there's something wrong with my home appliances - definitely felt like one of those dodgy scam calls.3 yearsGot a call from a woman with a heavy foreign accent who struggled with her English. She told me her name was Mary and claimed our washing machine insurance was nearly up. Total nonsense. We don’t even have washing machine insurance. Pretty obvious this was a scam.Mary3 yearsHad this number ring me up a couple of times today, each time telling me my appliance warranty had run out. Oddly enough, they mentioned a different appliance the second time they called. Bit suspicious if you ask me.3 yearsPretty clear this was a scam. They claimed my washing machine insurance had run out and wanted me to renew it - totally made up to trick me into handing over my bank info. What a sneaky bunch!3 yearsWhile I was having a shower this morning, my phone kept ringing for ages. I figured it had to be someone important, maybe family, especially since a couple of my cousins are battling cancer and this year’s been full of farewells. At this point, only one uncle and one aunt from my folks' generation are still around.3 yearsIf you want to block the last number that called you, just ring 1572 from your landline, hit 1 when prompted, and then carry on with the steps to lock it in.3 yearsI got a call from some bloke abroad who somehow knew my name, talking about insurance for my washing machine. I told him I wasn’t interested and then he just stopped talking.3 yearsReceived a call from 02045688448 just now saying something about a warranty for my washing machine, which I reckon is about 15 or 20 years old. When I asked if I had asked them to call me and when they’d made the request, the person just hung up. Pretty sure it was a scam.3 yearsI got a call from a bloke with an English accent but a really odd name who wanted to chat about some warranty extension. Thing is, I don’t have any warranties on stuff, so I told him that I had no idea what he was on about. He just hung up right after that.3 yearsPicked up my phone and there was loads of noise in the background, seemed fishy, so I just blocked the number straight away.3 yearsAt first, the caller seemed legit, giving me loads of details about my current home insurance. But then they passed me on to some “manager” who suddenly started asking for my bank info. Pretty slick scam, really convincing!3 yearsGot a call from an Asian lady who already had my name. When I paused and repeated my name back, sounding like I suspected it was a scam, they quickly ended the call.3 yearsThis was some sort of washing machine scam. I told the guy right away I wasn’t interested and hung up. He kept ringing me later but I didn’t answer any of the calls.3 yearsI got a call from someone saying my washing machine warranty had expired and their company was now handling it. I told them I had no clue about any of this since no one contacted me before. They just kept saying the same thing over and over. I told them I wasn’t interested and then they just cut the call.3 yearsGot a call about some washing machine insurance, keeps ringing but they never bother to leave a voicemail. Bit annoying how persistent they are.3 yearsI didn’t pick up since the number looked unfamiliar!3 yearsThis number is definitely on the TPS list, so the caller was obviously ignoring those rules.Telephone Preference Service3 yearsBeware of this washing machine cover scam, I almost fell for it! Some call claiming to offer insurance for your washer, but it’s just a ripoff. Don’t get tricked like I almost did!3 yearsThis morning, we got two calls from them. The first time, they spoke to my husband and mentioned something about us possibly qualifying for an emergency alarm. They messed up our name a bit, so he just said, “If you can't even spell our name properly, we’re not interested,” and hung up. Later, I answered the phone when they rang again, but once more they didn’t get our name right. I’d already checked the number on here and realised it seemed dodgy, so I just cut the call short.3 yearsGot a call really early in the morning but didn’t answer it.

I told them to quit with the scams and he definitely wasn’t happy about that.3 yearsThese guys just wont stop calling, really annoying!3 yearsJust like others have said, this guy tried to push me insurance for my freezer and washing machine, claiming my old cover had expired. Trouble is, I've already got extra insurance for them both. Feels like a scam trying to get your bank info.

Definitely seems like one of those dodgy scams.3 yearsGot a call from some scammer pushing washing machine insurance.

He just cut the call right away!Harry3 yearsRang me up claiming he was about to extend my washing machine service contract.

It's really annoying.3 yearsSomeone called me using my name but it turned out to be a scam about my washing machine warranty running out.

It's probably another scammer. They keep ringing us almost every day.3 yearsGot a call from someone who was going on about loft insulation, so I just let him ramble on for a bit before telling him he was wasting my time and then he hung up.

It’s not just one kind of scam, they’ll say whatever to try and grab your card info.3 yearsGot a call from someone trying to push a warranty on a washing machine I dont own.
