The caller mentioned an accident that occurred last year. However, I found it difficult to understand the woman on the phone due to her strong foreign accent and poor English skills.

He said he was from Zurich Insurance and called about some damage. Then he switched it up, saying he was working for Sky and sorting out a courtesy car. I called him out for lying, but the odd part is he mentioned an engineer visit on the 15th - which actually happened! Only thing is, that appointment was set up by Sky’s call centre in INDIA! Bit fishy if you ask me.Zurich InsuranceSkyIndia6 yearsApparently there’s a warrant for my arrest over some tax dodging or whatever. Didn’t really care much. Tried to keep them talking but they stuck me on hold and I had to get back to the dishes.6 yearsHe kept insisting he was ringing from TUI and was trying to pull up my info, but I could hear background sounds like he was outside.

The moment I started questioning them, they just ended the call.Thames Water7 yearsGot a call from TUI Travel Agents about our holiday booking.TUI7 yearsMy insurance provider told me this number is from a third-party company and that the call from Zurich was legit. Looks like they work with quite a few different businesses. Annoyingly, when you ring the number back, it just doesn’t seem to connect or ring.Zurich7 yearsReceived a phone call today from this number, asserting to be Zurich insurance regarding an accident that supposedly occurred in June. They requested my vehicle registration number. I am not sure how they obtained my details. Certainly seems like a scam to me.Zurich7 yearsGot a call back from a travel company called TUI?

I fix computers for a living. He rang me up thrice. Looked the number up on the internet and turns out it’s a scam.7 yearsI got a call from Thames Water after I emailed their support team. The person on the phone had a really strong Indian accent, which made it really hard for me to get what they were trying to say, especially since English isn’t my first language.Thames Water7 yearsThe person on the line alleges to represent Zurich Insurance and indicates a motor accident as their reference point.Zurich Insurance8 yearsA woman with a strong accent called saying she was from Thames Water. She mentioned my name, the address, and even when the last people left the house. I told her when I moved in as it didn’t really sound dodgy to me.Thames Water8 yearsGot a call from a guy claiming to be from Thames Water, had a really strong Indian accent. He said it was about an email I supposedly sent from [email protected][###]. I didn’t answer, instead used Thames Water’s official freephone number to report the dodgy call and sort everything out.Thames Water8 yearsJunk call. Some sort of automated message on the line, rambling on about whether you'd been involved in an accident or something similar. Caller: Can't say for definite.8 yearsSomeone called saying they were Hari from Zurich Insurance, had a strong Indian accent but wouldn’t say exactly where they were ringin from. I guess it could’ve been them since I was waitin on a call, but the person sounded pretty unprofessional and didn’t really help at all.HariZurich InsuranceZurich8 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Indian accent about a property I recently sold. She mentioned the property address and called me by name. Said I owed £114.30 as a shortfall payment and wanted me to call 02079447532 to sort it out. I double-checked with the company she said she worked for and they said there’s no debt at all. Definitely a SCAM.8 yearsWe keep receiving calls from this number, so we decided to call them back to find out who they are. However, every time we try, they say that the number is unavailable. This is becoming quite irritating since we work on a busy switchboard.8 yearsThey called me but I ain’t with Thames Water, and I don’t even live close to anywhere near them.Thames Water8 yearsGot a dodgy call from a woman speaking with a strong Indian accent, claiming to be from Thames Valley Water. She rang me three times back to back and left a voicemail each time, all within about 30 minutes this morning. Best steer clear of it.Thames Water8 yearsI got a call on my mobile from a lady with a strong Indian accent saying she was from Thames Water. She had to say it a couple of times before I could catch what she was saying. She asked me for my address but I said no and told her to just send me something in the post. I've emailed Thames Water to check if the call was legit, which I don’t really believe, and asked if it turns out to be a scam, could they notify the police. I’m not sharing any info with callers unless they can prove they’re legit.Thames Water8 yearsI received a call from someone claiming to be from Thames Water. However, when I contacted Thames Water directly, they revealed that they had no record of the number or the person who called me.Thames Water8 yearsThey said they were from Zurich Insurance, but didn't seem very professional at all. I reckon it’s probably a call centre handling calls for different firms. They asked me to send over an invoice, so I just told them to contact the company that did the work. They weren’t too pushy and didn’t ask for any personal info.Zurich Insurance8 yearsSounds like Thames Water givin me a ring.ThamesWater8 yearsYeah, it’s definitely Thames Water and safe to chat with.

Going to inform my insurance company about this now.Zurich8 yearsGot a few calls from someone with a heavy accent asking if my property is empty, which it defo isn't.

No clue how they know anything about my place.Thames Water8 yearsI reached out to my elderly father and requested his address, pretending to be a representative from Thames Water. However, when I contacted Thames Water to verify the identity of the person who claimed to be from their company, they had no knowledge of him.Thames Water8 yearsI've been getting calls and voicemails from this same number lately. I honestly have no idea what the person wants from me, but they've called three times and left two messages. They mentioned my name and said the letting agent gave them my contact, saying they couldn’t find my name as an account holder with Thames Water. I've dealt with a few letting agents before, and I've never heard of them sharing my number with Thames Water for setting up an account. It's pretty odd.Thames Water8 yearsSomeone said they were from Thames Water. I rang Thames Water on 0800 980 8800 and they told me it is legit and from them.Thames Water8 yearsJust so you know, I phoned Thames Water on 08009808800 and they said it was definitely them ringing me to check...Thames Water8 yearsThis number has been ringing me a few times today. I have spoken to Thames Water recently as well, since I'm about to move, so it could be related. Wish I had the time to mess about with the scammers though!Thames Water8 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be the postman, not the post office, which sounded odd as I’ve never had such a call before. They didn’t even get my name right. Watch out, this sounds like a scam.8 yearsJust got in touch with Thames Water myself - their site seems dodgy or hacked or something - watch out!Thames Water8 yearsWelcome to Thames Water.

Our call center is currently experiencing difficulties with language translations, but rest assured that we are working to improve our communication. Your patience and understanding in this matter are greatly appreciated.Thames Water8 yearsGot an Asian bloke saying the call’s being recorded, so I asked him to say it again really SLOW. Turns out he claimed he was ringing from Thames Water, wanting to know if a certain house is lived in. Felt proper sketchy, especially on a Friday just before the long weekend. I just said no thanks and ended the call.Thames Water8 yearsGot a call from a lady claiming to be from Thames Water, she was Indian. Could hardly make out what she was saying so I just ended the call. Have blocked that number now.Thames Water8 yearsHappened to me too, some bloke from India rang up asking about the place we lived in before. It felt a bit dodgy, so I asked why he was ringing and he just said he was checking if anyone was living there. Proper fishy behaviour!8 yearsTHAMES WATER ARE SCAMMERS - dont give out your info at all! Feels like theyre tryin to suss out if homes are empty or not.Thames WaterRefrain8 yearsGot a call today from a woman with an Indian accent claiming to be from Thames Water. She used my name, but I was suspicious and told her I don’t live at that address anymore. She insisted it was still under my name as freehold, which made me think she wasn’t really from Thames Water. I didn’t share any info, just asked her name and said thanks for calling before hanging up.Thames Water8 yearsIt was clear that the phone call was coming from a call centre, given the initial wait and the background conversations. The person on the other end, with a foreign accent, claimed to be an agent for Thames Water. However, their deceit became evident right away, so they didn't manage to continue the conversation. In order to identify the prankster, I visited this website.Thames Water8 yearsIt was quite evident that the call originated from a call centre, as there was a noticeable delay before anyone greeted me and I could hear conversations in the background. The person on the other end, with a foreign accent, claimed to be from Thames Water. However, I quickly realized that it was an obvious hoax. Therefore, I decided to visit this website in order to identify the culprit behind this mischievous act.ThamesWater8 yearsI received a call supposedly from Thames Water. They wanted my complete address, which I declined to provide, and inquired about my number of bedrooms-again, I refused to divulge that information. When I started to press the caller for more details, they abruptly terminated the call. Rather suspicious, if you ask me!Thames Water8 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from Thames Water asking if I was putting a house up for sale. Total scam, watch out.Thames Water8 yearsJust like previously mentioned, I’ve been receiving calls from this number but they never bother to leave a message. Quite odd, really.8 yearsSome bloke from Thames Water, sounded Indian, called me about the state of my house, musta mentioned before I was doing some work on it. I said it was still in progress. He said alright, he’d tell Thames Water to hold off ringing me for a few months. Bit strange, if you ask me.Thames Water8 yearsGot a call from an Indian man saying he worked for Countrywide Estate Agents. He seemed pretty convincing. Claimed my late mum had accidentally paid twice for selling a house and wanted to give me a refund via my solicitor. The number he rang from is now out of service but he gave me another one ?020 7944 7532? for the “Countrywide Finance Centre”. I’m not going to follow it up. Just watch out.EstateCountrywide Finance Centre8 yearsSaid they were from Thames Water. Left me a couple of voicemails sayin "Hi this is Thames Water, just got your email about moving house.

I've reported it to the Information Commission and Thames Water to look into.Thames WaterInformation Commissioner ’ s OfficeWater Board9 yearsThis number rang me about some tickets I’d purchased for an event that was apparently overbooked, and they also sent an email to match. Everything looked legit, and they even sent my refund right away without me having to give any info. But then I saw other folks got different types of calls from this same number, so I reckon it’s probably a call centre doing the rounds for loads of businesses - some scams, some legit. Bit confusing really :/9 yearsGot a call today about my empty house, and they seemed to already know it was unoccupied. They asked how long it’s going to stay empty and how much I’m putting into fixing it up. If any of you have had a similar call, drop me an email at [email protected][###]. Would be good to chat with others who’ve received this and see what we might share. Cheers, StuartCheersStuart9 yearsGot a call from a bloke claiming to be from Thames Water, asking me to verify my info. When I asked what it was about, he didn’t really answer and just kept pushing for my details. After a while, he said they’d send something in writing, so I said fine. I rang Thames Water afterwards and they told me they never called me, so definitely a SCAM!!Thames Water9 yearsI recently got in touch with Thames Water to create an account and since then I’ve been receiving calls from this number. It’s a woman with an Indian accent, like others mentioned, but her English is quite bad. She keeps asking me to confirm my address but doesn’t really get it and makes me say it over and over. I got really fed up and ended up hanging up. I’ve reached out to Thames Water directly to check if these calls are genuine. Proper irritating!Thames Water9 yearsSaid they were from Thames Water but definitely not!!

Fortunately, my caution paid off as it turned out to be a scam.Thames Water9 yearsI was a bit iffy about this call. It was a polite lady with an Indian accent but her words didn't really add up. She claimed I asked for some info (which I honestly never did) and started asking for my personal stuff. Felt off to me.9 yearsI had my doubts this lady was really from Thames Water. She was asking all sorts about my rental place - if it was empty or someone living there, and if I planned to rent it out soon.

I promptly informed the caller that their information was entirely inaccurate.Thames Water10 yearsI received a call from this number on the 6th of April at around eleven in the morning. When I picked up, the individual on the other end claimed to be from Thames Water, but his accent made it quite challenging to follow what he was saying.
