Phone number ☎️ 02082185293 👆 is reported as a nuisance scam number targeting individuals with unsolicited calls about washing machine insurance or cover. Callers often claim to know personal details like name and address to appear legitimate but hang up abruptly when challenged or questioned. They pressure recipients for sensitive information, including bank details, and become rude or aggressive if declined. Many report that no messages are left, and attempts to verify the caller's identity result in evasive or contradictory responses. The calls are commonly linked to attempts to sell non-existent or unnecessary insurance policies, frequently irritating or alarming recipients, especially the elderly. Blocking the number is widely recommended as the calls are persistent and misleading.

5 yearsThis number called me from London on 6 May 2021 at 13:09, but as I didn’t recognise it, I chose not to pick up. There wasn’t any voicemail left either.London5 yearsI got a call from someone about insurance for my washing machine. They already had my name and address, which was odd because I've never actually taken out any insurance. I just told them I wasn’t interested and hung up.5 yearsBeware this is a scam about a washing machine cover that doesn’t even exist. Just ignore and block them!5 yearsI saw the number but didn’t know who it was so I just let it ring out and go to voicemail, but there wasn’t any message.5 yearsThought it was dodgy - just hung up as soon as their answer machine kicked in.5 yearsgot a call from some woman saying her name was rebecca, something about a washing machine service plan for my place. i started chuckling as soon as she spoke and she just dropped the call before i could even say my washing machine is over 10 years old and never had any kind of service cover. what a waste of time!Rebecca5 yearsThis person rang up saying something about a washing cover, but we don't own one. After telling her that, I just hung up.5 yearsDidn't bother to leave a message.5 yearsThe woman just suddenly ended the call without saying more. It was about a washing machine cover, but then she disconnected right away.5 yearsWas it just me or did nobody say anything at all? Felt like the phone just rang and no one bothered to talk. Quite odd, really.5 yearsShe called to suggest I extend my washing machine warranty and had me confirm my postal code first. Then she asked for my bank details, but when I said I’d call her back, she just hung up.5 yearsA woman called about a washing machine cover last week, said mine had expired. When I asked about the brand of my washing machine, she replied it was from some big group. I asked who was in that group and she rattled off a few names. But when I told her my machine's brand wasn’t on her list, she just ended the call. Seems like she was just guessing, trying her luck that I’d have a brand in that group. She mentioned the company was something like "White Goods" or similar.5 yearsI got a call from a woman looking for my mum, and when I said I could pass on a message, she just ended the call right away. Definitely going to block that number.5 yearsI told them I wasn’t interested in the washing machine cover and hardly got to finish my sentence before they just ended the call. Proper rude.5 yearsGot a call from some strangers asking about a washing machine cover and somehow they knew where my elderly parents live. When my parents wouldn’t give their exact names, these people accused them of being scammers! Definitely going to dig deeper into who these folks really are.5 yearsGot a call saying my washing machine insurance had run out, which was rubbish cause I just bought a brand new one. Told them I didn’t want it and reminded them I’m on the do not call list. They started shouting at me to pay attention, so I told them to stop wasting my time and hung up. They rang again immediately after, so I’ve blocked the number now.5 yearsSpotted my home phone flashing, so had a look and saw the call came through about 3 hours earlier. I’ve got it set up to not ring at all, and instead, it plays a message directing mates (who know the number) to ring my mobile, or else to leave a voicemail. This setup’s been working for years, means no nuisance calls - the phone never actually rings. Over time, only a few messages have been left, and all of them were from confused elderly folks who dialled the wrong number! I check the other numbers here on this site, and they’re nearly always scams or fake. I’m based in Leeds, so just adding this info to the mix. Naturally, the number’s blocked now.Leeds5 yearsGot a call claiming my washing machine warranty had run out. When I asked for a contact number to ring back as I was tied up, the lady got quite snappy, demanding how she could trust I'd call her again and refusing to give a number, just insisting I confirm my bank info. I told her off and ended the call. If it really was about a washing machine cover, they’d surely have a proper number to call, right? Feels like many of us ended up chatting with the very same person. If it was a proper company, I’d expect dealing with different agents, not just this one.5 yearsA very polite young woman contacted me, claiming I had taken out insurance on my washing machine with their company. She seemed to have all my information down perfectly. She mentioned they were lowering my payment but needed me to verify some details first. I told her I’d call back when I had time. Instead, she offered to call me again in about 20 minutes. When she phoned back, I told her I was suspicious because I had just been in touch with my cooker’s insurance company. She kept insisting my washing machine was covered by another firm, not the one I’d called. Honestly, it was so easy to almost get caught out by it all.5 yearsI called to ask about getting an extended warranty for my washing machine since we’ve never had one before, but the woman just cut me off and ended the call. Quite rude really.Submit Your Own Report (020 8218 5293)
