This number has called me six times over the last three days and I’ve ignored every one of them. I’ve just gone ahead and blocked it now.

These Diesel emission calls are a right pain, they phoned me three times and somehow had my car’s reg number. I’ve blocked the number, but then they started calling from a different 020 number, just changing the last four digits. It’s so frustrating especially since I’ve got clients in London with similar 020 numbers. Definite scam, I just keep blocking them whenever they pop up.

Got a call about some diesel claim worth up to £10k, no idea how they ended up with my car reg and phone number. I tried blocking them a few days back yet they keep finding ways to get through. Proper annoying!

At first, I was getting loads of phone calls about diesel emissions, now suddenly they're saying they're calling from O2. Bit confusing and quite annoying really.

Got a call from these scammy lot claiming my old Motability car ran on diesel when it was actually petrol. I told them I was with the police to see what they’d say. They ended the call right away after that, so I just blocked their number afterwards.

They gave me a ring yesterday and then again today. Totally dodgy, no doubt about it. They refuse to send anything in writing and insist everything’s done over the phone. Classic scammer behaviour if you ask me.

Got a call from 020 8638 7988 about some diesel emissions thing. They knew the exact colour, model and number plate of my old car and said it was about an online query - I never asked about anything like that. Told them it wasn’t my car and they just cut the call. Definitely blocked that number now, proper spam.

Just a total rip off, watch out!

Those diesel scam calls keep coming from different numbers, no matter how many times I block and report them. It's so frustrating that they just won't stop! Really getting on my nerves now.

Got scammed with some dodgy diesel claim. Somehow, my personal details got passed on through my insurance provider. Next thing I know, my premiums have shot up. Cheers for that!

Got a call today from what sounded like a legal firm, but it was actually some dodgy call centre trying to scam me. Watch out, they’re not who they say they are!

Beware of these diesel scam calls! They seem to be fishing for your personal info, which I reckon is being peddled by your own insurance firm. Total dodgy business.

Everytime I get a call like this, it's almost always some scam from those new Indian numbers. Drives me mad how common it is!

They tried pulling that scam on me too, but I didn’t let it go beyond some stuff you can find just about anywhere. Didn’t fall for it at all.

WATCH OUT... STAY AWAY FROM THIS FIRM... They called me and somehow knew my name and even an old car's plate, but they got basic stuff wrong like the fuel type - it’s petrol, not diesel. Seems like a scam to grab info or make false claims. Really don’t trust them. Never hand over your info to anyone ringing you out of the blue. Keep your personal details safe.

Got a call from some scammer about diesel emissions claims, but he already knew my name and my number plate. I asked him where he found that info, and he said it came from car insurance firms. Sounded dodgy to me!

Every single day, I get about 15 calls about some diesel claim. I've told them to take me off their list, but the calls just keep coming. They ring from all over - places like Bristol, London, Manchester, Liverpool, and loads more. It's really frustrating!
