Reports on phone number 02045688501
2 yearsHad this bloke on the phone who was all over the place, couldn’t even tell if he was pushing solar panels or some kind of washing machine warranty! I told him he really needed to sort his act out before trying to rip people off. Blocked him straight away!2 yearsEarlier today, a chap with an Indian or Asian accent called regarding a warranty for a washing machine. It threw us off a bit since we're already dealing with issues related to a repair for our own machine. To make matters a tad more perplexing, he had our name and address on hand. I asked him which brand our machine was, but he got it completely wrong! When I pressed him about the company he represented, the name he provided didn’t ring any bells with the firms I’ve been in touch with. I pointed this out to him and he quickly apologised before the conversation came to a close. Regrettably, I wasn’t able to catch the name he mentioned-likely just a made-up one anyway.2 yearsJus spam calls, nothing else.2 yearsI answered, but no one said a word on the other end.2 yearsAs soon as my answering machine picked up, the caller just hung up on me.2 yearsJust got a call from some bloke saying the warranty on my fridge-freezer was running out and they could sort me out with a new one. I told him my fridge is well over a decade old and obviously not under warranty anymore. I also mentioned that calling a number on the TPS list is against the rules. Unsurprisingly, he hung up abruptly without a word of farewell!Telephone Preference Service2 yearsGot a call from a bloke with a funny accent, saying my washing machine warranty had expired. He said I could renew it for £6.95 a month. I found it odd when he asked which brand my machine was. I asked why he didn’t have that info already. He just mumbled something about the engineer needing to know but couldn’t actually tell me what brand he thought it was. I just hung up after that.2 yearsThey actually had my name and where I lived. Tried to push an extended warranty for my washing machine but didn’t even know what brand it was. Claimed I was on some manufacturer’s list, but couldn’t say which one. Got proper annoyed when I kept asking questions and then just hung up. Well, I suppose I managed to stop him bothering others for a little while anyway.2 yearsSome bloke with a funny accent called, claiming my washing machine’s warranty had ended and offered to extend it for another two years. Problem is, my machine’s second-hand, so it’s clear they’re just trying to blag me into buying something. I told him to shove off and quit trying to con folks. Plus, I’m on the TPS list, so these calls really shouldn’t be slipping through at all.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsGot a random call from some call centre in India. Told the bloke I was going to report him to Ofcom, then just ended the call.Ofcom2 yearsGot a call around quarter past eight, stayed silent and they just hung up. Another dodgy scam attempt.2 yearsGot a call from a woman claiming to sell washing machine insurance. I told her kindly that we actually do our laundry down by the river, scrubbing clothes against rocks, so there's no need for any cover here. She seemed a bit confused but said thanks anyway. They say nothing beats the old fashioned way for that extra bright clean!2 yearsReceived a call at 10:20 AM GMT on the 23rd of January 2024. It seemed a bit suspicious, so I decided to ignore it. They didn't bother to leave a voicemail either.2 yearsGot a call from a bloke with a thick English accent, said it was about my washing machine insurance. I just ended the call. Definitely a scam, same digits as before.2 yearsSeriously, these lot should just find proper work instead of this nonsense! Another one trying to sell washing machine covers... classic rip-off.2 yearsI’d added the number to the TPS and blocked it. Despite that, the call still came through to my answering machine, but thankfully they didn’t leave any message.2 yearsUpon picking up the phone, I could clearly hear the hustle and bustle of a call centre in the background. They greeted me with a "Hello" a couple of times, but as I remained silent, they ultimately ended the call.2 yearsWe’ve registered with the Telephone Preference Service, so this should have been blocked. When I picked up and said hello a few times, there was just silence, but I could hear loads of noise from a call centre in the background. Very odd.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsGot a call about renewing my washing machine cover, but I already have one. Sounds like a total scam to me.2 yearsEven tho I'm on the TPS list, I've been getting calls from this same number for quite some time now. Definitely not someone I know or want to hear from. Let it go to voicemail but they never left a message. So I've gone ahead and blocked it.TPS2 yearsMy landline's on the TPS list, yet this number rang and then just cut off when my answering machine started. I've blocked them now after reading the notes here.TPS2 yearsIgnored the call and let it go straight to voicemail. The message was nearly done, like they were hoping someone might actually respond. Not a chance! Definitely putting this number on my block list. My contact’s listed in the directory, but since I’ve been registered with TPS for ages, it’s high time these scammy folks got properly checked out like they’re meant to.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsHad another one of those insulation scam calls, I told the bloke Jordan was full of it and just hung up on him.Jordan2 yearsEven though I've signed up with the TPS, this number keeps ringing my phone all the time.Telephone Preference Service2 years15th January 2024, around 10 in the morning. The phone just went straight to answerphone and before I could even say anything, the caller had already hung up. Proper annoying that was.2 yearsThe house phone went off, and a chap with a distinctly foreign accent awkwardly used my name (though he botched it a bit). Definitely a dodgy call. I cut him off straight away. I'll be reporting this to Action Fraud.Action Fraud2 yearsI recently had a peculiar encounter with someone named "Yoda" from a company called Homestar Improvements. They were keen to chat about home insulation, but I couldn't shake the feeling that it was all a bit dodgy. Definitely gave me the impression of a con.YodaHomestar Improvements2 yearsI received a call on my landline from a number based in London, with a woman on the other end who had a slightly Asian accent. Strangely enough, she appeared to know my name without me ever confirming it. To my surprise, she even mentioned my address! She was trying to convince me to "extend" the warranty on my washing machine, which she claimed was for the same brand I own, despite it being well beyond its warranty period. I allowed her to drone on with her lengthy spiel, just listening patiently. When she finally asked if I was still there, I casually inquired, "Who am I speaking to?" This seemed to throw her off balance a bit, and she lost some of her initial confidence. In the end, I decided to cut the conversation short and hung up.London2 yearsIt's quite the tale with each new call! The interference on the line and the peculiar dialect certainly raise eyebrows (no intention to offend, but I'm sure we understand the nuances here). I can't help but feel their chatter is far less likely to come from the heart of London than the bustling streets of Mumbai. Most recently, they were keen to 'extend the warranty on my washing machine.' Stay on your toes, everyone! These chaps are getting savvier, utilising cutting-edge AI tech that enables them to mimic the tones of an Oxbridge scholar or even sound like someone from your own circle.LondonMumbaiOxbridge2 yearsLift Insulation - I don't fancy that 'complimentary assessment' at all; it's quite unwelcome.2 years02045688501 I've noticed that this number is linked to various telemarketing schemes, including appliance warranties, insulation offers, and medical alert systems. It's quite likely that these are all fraudulent. I suspect that the calls are coming from somewhere in the Lahore area of London.LahoreLondon2 yearsReceived a call attempting to peddle a warranty for my Bosch refrigerator. They had my name and address, so clearly, they sourced that information online.Bosch2 yearsLooks like one of those scammers in some dodgy little hut in India, running Windows 7 and using VOIP, probably snagging numbers from some big shot. I reckon they might even work a normal day job doing customer service for OVO. If you want a giggle, there’s loads of scambaiters on YouTube who expose this kinda stuff.India.BigOVOScambaitersYouTube2 yearsGot another one of those scam calls today :-( such a pain!2 yearsGot a call from what sounded like a call centre, but they just dropped the phone after a few secs.2 yearsGot another call from someone with an Asian accent trying to scam me.2 yearsIt was one of those home insulation calls. I played along and told her I was living in a castle just for a laugh. Then she tried to prove she knew where I lived by actually giving me my own address. Bit frustrating they manage to get both the number and address like that. I've blocked the number now.2 yearsEvery type of scam can be really risky, so you have to watch out for them all.2 yearsI got a call from a woman, her name was Mary I think, and she had a bit of an accent. The background was really noisy, made it hard to understand her properly. She mentioned something about loft insulation but it came across as dodgy, like some kind of phishing or scam. Didn't feel right at all.Mary2 yearsThank goodness for call blocking! Honestly, why do these annoying folks keep ringing up?2 yearsHad another random call today, this one trying to sell loft insulation. When I told them I don’t deal with cold callers, the woman with the strong accent got really shouty claiming it wasn’t a cold call. Number’s blocked now. Like some have mentioned, looks like a scam - best just ignore.2 yearsTotal rip off!2 yearsGot a call about some kind of warranty for a washing machine, but when I asked them what brand it was, they couldn’t give me a straight answer. Seems like another dodgy scam to me.2 yearsAbsolutely relentless phone calls! It’s a barrage of messages about washing machine warranties, dodgy internet alerts claiming my account's been hacked, and countless other scammy nonsense. It’s all a bit much, really!2 yearsIt seems like every time my landline goes off, it’s some dodgy caller claiming to be from my internet provider, or hassling me about a warranty for my appliances, or even pestering me with health assessments. They often claim they can’t access the internet, but as soon as I engage, they hang up abruptly. Quite a few of them are difficult to comprehend, and they often throw out names like ‘Susan’ just to bait me into a chat. I had one bloke recently claiming he was from my bank’s team, and when I challenged him, he simply cut the call. It’s becoming quite the nuisance!Susan2 yearsI've been receiving incessant calls claiming to be from some washing machine repair service. I've asked them to cease and desist, but they keep pestering me. At this point, I’ve decided to just ignore the lot of them.2 yearsIt was hard to tell what exactly they wanted, definitely seemed like some kind of scam.2 yearsGot a call from some young woman pushing loft insulation. I said we weren’t interested and tried to end the call, but even after I hung up, she kept chatting away.2 yearsGot a call earlier today from someone saying my fridge insurance was up for renewal. I asked them which fridge they were on about, and then the line just cut off. Feels like it was just an excuse to confirm my number or something.2 yearsGot a call from 02045688501 about renewing a washing machines warranty for two years. When I asked what brand, they said Hotpoint. Thing is, I don’t have any Hotpoint products or any kind of warranty at all. Definitely a scam!2 years02045688501 They called me pretending to be about some sort of 'health alert system'. After reading what others said, it looks like they switch their story around quite a bit. Honestly, I wouldn't put any trust in them.2 yearsGot a call first thing at 8am, they already had my name and said I qualified for some medical alert thing, then just cut off. Total scam. Really creepy how they had my last name too!2 yearsIt’s not merely a con; it's a rather blatant one at that. I certainly didn’t hold back my frustration when I encountered that woman with an Asian accent trying to sell me a renewal for a washing machine warranty I never had. It wasn’t just the obvious scam that irked me; at my age, I can’t stand anyone presuming I’m a simpleton.2 yearsWhen I get a call from a number I don't recognise, I usually just let it ring out and later use who-called to find out who it was.2 yearsI received a dodgy phone call about my washing machine warranty, which was rather suspect. When I confronted the caller about their tactics, they became quite aggressive. They wouldn’t leave it there, though-harassing me with constant calls until I finally had enough and had to block the number. Quite the ordeal, if you ask me!2 yearsGot a call about my washing machine warranty that sounded a bit off. They were pushing me to pay up for some cover I never signed for. Definitely feels like one of those sneaky warranty scams, so watch out!2 yearsThis caller pretended to represent Homecare Medical. They addressed my wife by the incorrect name, and then a woman with an Asian accent hastily ended the conversation.Homecare Medical2 yearsI got a call from this number, and instantly thought it was probably some kind of scam. Turns out, I wasn’t wrong!2 yearsGot a dodgy call trying to sell me insulation, felt like a total scam.2 yearsGot a call from this number about some fridge service plan supposedly being expired... never even signed up for such a thing! What service plan are they on about?2 yearsThis bloke claimed to be calling from some care alarm company. When I asked if a family member’s alarm had gone off, he just dropped the call straight away.3 yearsIts a scam, best not to pick up.3 yearsGot a call from someone saying I’d won cash, total scam!3 yearsWatch out, this is a total scam and potentially harmful.Fraudulent3 yearsThis was definitely a rip-off.3 yearsHung up quick after hearing my call screening, didn’t bother leaving any message.3 yearsI had a call that sounded like it was coming from a busy call centre, but it dropped halfway through. Reading other reviews, seems like a scam or something dodgy. I'm on the TPS list as well.Telephone Preference Service3 yearsA chap rang me up claiming they were prolonging the warranty on my washing machine. When I pointed out that I don't even own one, they suddenly cut the call without a word. Apparently, they were from something called home services!3 yearsI've got BT Guardian along with a call blocker, so if a number isn't stored in my contacts, it has to obey the rules I set. That means I can choose to pick up, send them to voicemail, or just block them completely. Honestly, this site is pretty handy and deserves a shoutout.BT Guardian3 yearsThe moment I picked up, a lady with an American accent started talking about some washing machine warranty. I'm really fed up with these sorts of calls, so I just hung up straight away and blocked the number since I’m certain it’s just another scam.3 yearsEvery day I get calls about roof loft insulation and offers for a free inspection. They just don’t seem to accept a simple no. Got one again this morning at 8:55!3 yearsGot a call from this number at 9:49 this morning but as soon as my voicemail picked up, they just ended the call.3 yearsSome bloke rang me saying he was from a proper company, offering to extend the warranty on my washing machine. How on earth did he know my exact address though? Seemed like he was just reading from a set script. I had to raise my voice and shout 'quiet' just so I could say, “if you already have my address, just send the details by post.” I was feeling rough with the flu, so didn’t really think it through and ended up admitting he did have my address. Honestly, this kind of call feels really dodgy and a bit unsafe.3 yearsMy washing machine's insurance expired and I’ve already had three calls this week, all from different numbers, which is really annoying.3 yearsI answered the phone but the call just dropped without a word, no voicemail left. Feels like it was one of those scam calls to me.3 yearsTotal rip off! 🤬3 yearsMy voicemail picked up this unknown number and in the background, I could hear what seemed like a busy call centre. No one actually spoke, then the line just dropped. Quite odd really.3 yearsAll I could hear was the usual chatter from a call centre in the background - total nonsense really. Can’t figure out why BT doesn’t step in to block these calls, it’s mad!BT3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming my washing machine's insurance was about to expire. When I asked what brand it was, he said Hotpoint - which isn't even what I have! Then he said they’d lost the details of my machine, and that’s when I hung up. These calls really annoy me, feels like a total scam to me!3 yearsThe caller hung up unexpectedly. It seems to be a call centre that plays hold music.3 yearsGot a call from a number, it was completely silent then they just hung up. I reckon it’s one of those call centres playing recorded stuff and music in the background.Submit Your Own Report (020 4568 8501)
