1 yearGot a call from some Indian lad, sounded like a total EE scam. Couldn’t really make out what he was saying properly. Definitely dodgy.2 yearsSounds like a total rip-off.2 yearsI just picked up and they instantly hung up on me. Sounds like one of those annoying scam calls to me.2 yearsGot a call to my landline from someone called "Vicky", but as soon as I picked up, the call ended right away. Saw a few other posts talking about Domestic & General so I’m guessing it might be them. I’ve had their household appliance cover before and honestly, they never stop ringing me, always nagging to buy more policies. Total annoyance!VickyDomestic & General2 yearsOver the past week, this number has rung me up about twice daily, but never leaves a voicemail. When I picked up once, it was an Indian guy asking to speak with me. Honestly, I find these calls quite annoying and a bit worrying too.2 yearsDefinitely a scam, just don’t trust it.2 yearsI was abroad when they kept ringing me, but the sound was so faint, it was hard to catch what they were saying. They said something about being from Sky or something like that, but honestly, I couldn’t make out much else.Sky2 yearsGot a call from a firm claiming to want to book an appointment. They asked for a customer’s name, address and postcode but I couldn’t verify any consent or do any KYC checks. Due to doubts and their insistence on more info, I ended the call. Felt a bit iffy about the whole thing.2 yearsThis number seems a bit dodgy, so proceed with caution. They claimed to be from Sky but didn’t bother to authenticate their identity by asking for my details or security password. It feels like it could be a scam.Sky2 yearsThis number, 202 8879 8429, just rang me. The bloke claimed he was from Sky. I talked to him for about half a minute before I ended the call. His voice had a weird echo… sounded like he was all alone in some empty room or something.Sky2 yearsI got a call from someone saying his name was Norman, claiming he was calling on behalf of Sky Q and said he had my info. He went on about some new free channels I supposedly could access, including Discovery Plus, Roku, and said my Sky Go is now linked to six devices. Then he tried to sell me insurance, which I turned down. Later, I rang the number back and it said it belonged to Direct and General. Definitely a scam. I’m going to report it to Sky.NormanSky QDiscoverySky GoDirectSky2 yearsJust got a call a little while ago from someone saying they’re with Domestic & General but working with Sky. They were all about helping me with Sky Q and even mentioned I might get some freebies. Weirdly, they already knew my name. Didn’t like how the chat went, so I cut it short nicely. I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number now.Domestic & GeneralSky2 yearsGot a call from this number and the bloke claimed he was from SKY but I’m pretty sure that’s dodgy. Last time I got a scam call pretending to be SKY too, so I just called SKY directly to check, and they told me they never ring people out of the blue. They said if you want to speak to SKY, you have to ring them yourself. Sounds like a scam to me. I’m planning to report this number to SKY asap.SKY2 yearsI always ignore calls from numbers I don’t recognise, and if they don’t leave a voicemail, I just block them straight away.2 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were with Sky about Sky Q. I just ended the call straight away.Sky2 yearsSaw the caller ID, didn’t pick up, gonna block it straight away.2 yearsI received a call from this number earlier today, claiming to be from Sky. The individual on the line insisted that my Sky Q contract was approaching its renewal, which struck me as odd since Sky Q isn’t available as an independent agreement. To make matters more suspicious, they couldn’t even provide my full name or address and had no clue about my actual renewal date. I informed them that I would reach out to Sky using the official number I possess if I was interested in any potential deals. Curiously, the caller hung up in a hurry.SkySky Q2 yearsI’ve gotten about 8 calls from this number but never hear anything, it always just drops like the line’s dead. No clue who it could be.2 yearsGot a ring from 020 88798429 today, but they didn’t say who they were and left no voicemail. When I looked it up later, seems like it might be one of those scam calls.2 yearsGot a call from Domestic and General claiming to be from Sky. Honestly, they were quite rude.Sky2 yearsGot a missed call notification but my phone didn’t actually ring at all. I called Sky to check after seeing similar comments here, and they said that number isn’t theirs - no one from Sky tried calling me, according to their records. I don’t have any insurance with D&G either, so I’m thinking it’s probably a scam. If it was legit, they’d have left a voicemail like most companies do. Anyway, I’ve gone ahead and blocked that number now.SKYD & G2 yearsSomeone called up saying I supposedly owed them some cash.2 yearsGot a call from a number I didn’t recognise, no voicemail or anything, so I just blocked it straight away.2 yearsSomeone rang me claiming to be with Domestic and General, asking for my address. I told them I wasn’t about to share any personal info with someone calling out of the blue. They got a bit rude and just hung up after saying, “Alright, cheers then.”2 yearsI got a call from a lady claiming to be from D&G, saying it was about insurance for a gaming console I purchased from Argos not long ago. Then she started trying to push extra insurance for my washing machine, which I definitely don't require. Honestly, she sounded completely drunk!D & GArgos2 yearsThis number rang me today but I usually dont pick up for callers not saved in my contacts. Only last week I got a new washing machine from Currys and an air conditioning from Very. After seeing these reviews, I’m guessing one or both those firms have passed my info onto some insurance salespeople! Such a nuisance.Curry ’ sVery2 yearsThey’ve been ringing pretty much daily for the past three months straight but never bother to leave any voicemail or explanation. Really annoying.2 yearsThey’ve been ringing me since 3rd May. Call only lasts a few seconds before they hang up. I haven’t bought anything, so it can’t be D&G. Think I’ll just block the number.D & G2 yearsGot a call from a London number I didn’t know, picked up and they just cut off. Had a look here and now I’ve blocked it.London2 yearsClaimed to be from Domestic and General, yet had knowledge of an engineer’s appointment date, which made me wonder if it was a proper call. However, based on what others have said, it seems I might need to reassess that assumption.2 yearsMy phone showed a missed call from 020 8879 8429 but they didn’t leave any voicemail. When I tried ringing them back, the call just got ended right away.2 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be from Sky. When they asked to verify my info, I didn’t feel comfortable and refused. They said they’d ring me again later. Not gonna bother answering next time - definitely blocking them.Sky2 yearsI got a call from an unknown number, (020) 88798429, on my mobile. Didn't recognise it at all, so I've decided to block it now.2 yearsGot a call from Domestic and General, so I rang the number back. It was an automated message saying it was just a courtesy call and there was nothing to do. Probably just trying to sell insurance again, as they've called me before about cover on my new fridge which they gave me the first month free for... all from D&G.D & G2 yearsHad a few calls already from numbers saying it’s domestic and general for some kind of curtesy call. Just got another one from the same number, this time saying it’s Sky and asking weird stuff like if they can call me by my first name but they didn’t even know it. Then they asked for my address and I just hung up. I keep blocking these numbers but they somehow always get through.Sky2 yearsMost likely Domestic & General. I got a TV from Argos and I think D&G are the ones that handle the extended warranty, which I didn’t actually go for!Argos2 yearsHad enough of these calls every week from house & sky, been going on for months now, they never pick up 020887984292 yearsSpoke in English, said they were from Domestic and General. They rang the landline initially but hung up before I could answer, probably within 10 seconds. Right after that my mobile started ringing.2 yearsPicked up but no one said anything, just ended up blocking the number.2 yearsSaid they were from Sky. Bit creepy coz they already knew my last name. I already reported this number on Tuesday!Sky2 yearsSomebody said they were calling from Sky to chat about deals. They had a UK accent but ended up messing up my name, which makes me think it’s one of those call centres in India or maybe they’ve got my details wrong in the SCAM lists. I told them I wasn’t interested and, since I’m already signed up to block all Sky calls, I reckon it’s just a dodgy scam.Sky2 yearsCalled by Domestic & General.2 yearsSome bloke with English name but speaks with an Asian accent called me. Didn’t know who they wanted cause I never say my name. As soon as I asked where they were calling from or their surname, they just hung up. Total scam.2 yearsSomeone rang me asking for the person who holds the Sky Q account, and weirdly they knew my name but I dont even have Sky Q. They acted like they were from Sky.Sky Q2 yearsI've never actually used Domestic & General's services, so I'm rather sceptical that this claim is genuine.Domestic & General2 yearsGot a call today, it only rang once so I didn’t pick up. Looked up the number here and happy I didn’t. Blocked it straight away and removed it from my phone.2 yearsDidn’t pick up, no message left either. I’m thinking it was just some bored call centre worker ringing.2 yearsThey claimed to be from domestic vs and some general new company. I had already cancelled my direct debit and subscription, but this number keeps saying they’re from Sky or a utility firm. Something definitely feels off, looks like a scam to me.Domestic & GeneralSky2 yearsThey keep ringin and then b4 I can pick up they just drop. Sounds like a call centre callin to hit some sort of call target.2 yearsSounds like it’s a call from Domestic & General for sure.2 yearsKept going on even after I said I wasn’t keen on British Gas. Honestly, it almost felt like a robot was on the other end of the line.British Gas2 yearsDodgy number....keeps ringing me non stop...would block it but says my block list is full or something!!!2 yearsThis number belongs to D&G and is their helpline for customers. I've been in touch with them regarding an issue I'm facing, and this is the number they've been using to reach out to me. It’s rather unsettling when you feel as though you’re under surveillance, however, in this instance, I do think it’s legitimate. It appears to solely serve as an outbound line for their customer service correspondence.D & G2 yearsGot loads of calls from this number. Picked up yesterday since I was waiting on a call from an unknown number. The person said they were from Sky and used my name, then asked me to confirm the first line of my address... I said I wasn’t comfortable with that and they just hung up straight away. Blocked the number since.Sky2 yearsDidn't pick up.2 yearsGot another scam call today.. first one said it was the *TAX DEPARTMENT* Pretty clear this is a total con.2 yearsSome sort of home insurance call, I think. No idea who they were. Blocked them now.2 yearsI picked up the phone and heard a recorded message saying I’d got a call earlier from Domestic and General, no need to take any action as it’s just a friendly check-in??? Then the call suddenly ended. I’m guessing they’re just trying to pitch some sort of appliance insurance.Domestic2 yearsThis number kept ringing me loads times over the last couple days, all through the day. I usually reach out to firms on my own if something needs sorting, so I don’t get why they’re calling me. With all the scammers and dodgy calls going about nowadays, I’m not trusting this number at all.2 yearsGot a missed call, nothing was said in a message. Looked it up here - looks like a scam.2 yearsScam alert - they rang me twice claiming to be from SKY, but just hung up when I asked them to prove who they really were.Sky2 yearsI’m waiting for a ring from Domestic and General but this doesn’t look like their number, so I reckon it might be a scam.2 yearsThis number has been ringing me non-stop for a couple of weeks. Whenever I pick up, the call just drops straight away. I think it’s best I just block 02088798429 now. Cheers, Chris.CheersChris2 yearsThis person kept ringing me loads of times, saying they were from Sky but something felt off. I didn’t want to share any info with them, so I just ended the call. Have blocked the number now.Sky2 yearsThe call dropped right before I got a chance to pick up.2 yearsGot another call trying to sell me some appliance cover. Just blocked it.2 yearsThis person claimed to be from Sky Q. They asked for my last name but I didn’t want to give it. I told them I wasn’t sure if it was legit. She replied that without my surname she couldn’t carry on due to data protection rules. So, I just hung up.Sky Q2 yearsI dont bother picking up or responding to calls unless the name shows its someone i know. So tired of all these scam calls..2 yearsThey keep ringing me every day this past week, but as soon as I pick up, they just cut the call.2 yearsIt was SKY ringin to offer some appliance insurance from domestic and general.SKYDomestic and General2 yearsTotal scam, just block and move on.2 yearsJust got another dodgy call.2 yearsThey rang me saying it was about my recent phone upgrade with Sky and some free extras, then asked for my name and address. They said they were from Domestic & General, offering discounted insurance for other stuff like TVs and consoles. I kinda zoned out halfway through, and as soon as I said I wasn’t interested, they were fine with just hanging up.SkyDomestic & General2 yearsThis person somehow has both my mobile and home phone numbers. If I ignore one, they ring the other. When I picked up today, they just hung up immediately. So, I called the number back and got an automated message saying it was a goodwill call from Domestic & General. I contacted Domestic & General to check, and they told me that number isn't theirs. They've now flagged the number on their side.Domestic2 yearsKeeps ringing all the time, but I never pick up.2 yearsKept missing calls from this number, finally picked up today and it turned out to be Sky. Told them I was tied up and have blocked the number now. Dunno if it’s a scam or not, but odds are it is. Proper annoying how they keep ringing me nonstop!Sky2 yearsThey’ve been ringing me loads the past few weeks… saying they’re from Domestic and General Insurance… I just hang up, but they keep pestering me with calls…Domestic and General Insurance2 yearsWatch out, it’s not always what it seems!2 yearsI didn’t pick up. They called a couple of times after I checked the reviews here, so I’ve just gone ahead and blocked the number now.2 yearsgot a call from this number claiming to be sky, saying they wanted to chat about my sky package anniversary and offer some freebies for my sky q box... asked me for my address which i refused to give, then the line just went dead on their end... seems dodgy, probably a scam...Sky2 yearsThey've rung me 3 times today but left no voicemail, I always ignore 0208 numbers if I don't know who it is. This number’s called me 3 times today and a couple times on Friday too. I’ve gone ahead and blocked it now.2 yearsBeginning from the 13th of April, this particular number has attempted to reach my mobile on four separate occasions, each on different days. I tend to avoid picking up calls from numbers I don’t recognise. When I looked it up on a site that reveals who’s calling, it seems this number could be linked to an insurance fraud scheme.2 yearsThat was a rather strange phone call, I must say. The caller just wouldn't take no for an answer!2 yearsI keep getting calls from this number, and every time they just end up disconnecting! So frustrating!2 yearsThis number keeps ringing me, only to hang up as soon as I answer. Quite frustrating!2 yearsIt’s just Domestic & General calling again to try and push insurance plans to people who already use their service.2 yearsThey asked for someone I’d never even heard of, then wanted to know my name. I told them they were the ones calling me so they should already know it. The bloke started being really pushy, so I just blocked the number.2 yearsSomeone called saying they were from Hoover. They already knew I bought a dryer a couple months back. Tried to sell me insurance, said the first month was free and then it would be like £4 a month.Hoover2 yearsSomeone rings and just cuts off straight away.2 yearsThey said they were from Sky and already knew my name but asked me to confirm my address. I don’t give out my address to strangers on the phone so I just hung up. Later I looked up the number here and it really backed up my decision not to share any details.Sky2 yearsSomeone called saying they was from Sky about my Domestic & General insureance ending for some equipment. I’ve never got that insurance before. They tried to offer 3 months free then £9.90 every month. I asked if they could send me all the details by email or post but she said because she was working from home, she couldn’t do that.SkyDomestic & General2 yearsGot a random call on my phone but when I picked up it just didn’t go through.2 yearsReceived a dodgy call claiming to be from Sky.
