Had 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!

This morning I got a call from a young man speaking with an Indian or Asian accent about a warranty for a washing machine. It felt a bit odd because we’re already dealing with a repair issue for our machine. He had our name and address, but when I asked him what brand our machine was, he guessed it wrong. I then questioned which company he was calling from, and he mentioned a firm that didn’t match any of the ones I’m expecting to hear from. I pointed this out, he said sorry, and the call wrapped up. Unfortunately, I didn’t quite catch the name he gave - probably made up anyway.

Just 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!

Got 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.

They 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.

Some 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.

Got 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.

We’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.

Ignored 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.

Got a call from a London number, a lady with a slight oriental accent. She called my home phone and immediately said my name - which I never confirmed. She even mentioned my address. She was trying to sell me an extended warranty on a washing machine brand I do have. Problem is, it's way past the warranty period! I just let her ramble on without a word. When she checked if I was listening, I asked, “Who am I speaking to?” and she sounded shakier after that. I ended up hanging up.

Every time I answer, the story changes completely. There’s always some weird background noise and the accent throws me off - not trying to be racist or anything, but it doesn’t feel like they’re calling from London, maybe somewhere closer to Mumbai. This latest time, they tried to sell me an extended warranty for my washing machine. Heads up, folks - these callers are getting smarter and now can use AI to mask their accents, sounding like they’re a posh Oxbridge graduate or even someone you know well. Stay sharp!

Looks 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.

It 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.

I 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.

My landline keeps getting calls from people pretending to be my internet company or offering warranties on appliances or health checks. I told them I don’t even have internet, but they just hang up on me. Sometimes their accent is so bad I can barely understand them, and other times they ask if I’m Susan or some random name, like they’re fishing to chat. One bloke even claimed to be from my bank’s team, but I told him he wasn’t before he abruptly ended the call. It’s getting so annoying!

This was more than just a scam, it was blatant! Some woman with an accent, sounded Asian, called about renewing a warranty for a washing machine I don’t even own.

I'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.

Some 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.
