02871816540 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 02871816540 👆 is reported as a persistent scam involving callers impersonating a well-known appliance insurance provider, Domestic & General. The fraudsters, often using Indian or Asian accents, claim to offer refunds or reductions on direct debit payments, seeking personal and banking details. They may provide misleading employee names and inconsistent phone numbers to appear legitimate. Many recipients report abrupt hang-ups when questioned, poor handling of banking queries, or silent calls. The calls are unsolicited, sometimes with callers knowing minimal personal information, but no genuine insurance involvement is confirmed. Recipients are strongly advised to block the number, avoid sharing any information, and remain cautious, as this appears to be a coordinated attempt to extract sensitive financial data.

6 yearsGot a call from some dodgy bloke saying he was gonna refund me for fridge insurance. Total scam, just be careful!6 yearsJust like others have said, a guy with an Asian accent called about cutting down my monthly direct debit. I asked to speak with a supervisor but never got through. At one point, someone told him I wasn't convinced and then he hung up on me.6 yearsGot a call from a guy with an Indian accent saying he was Jack Richards from Domestic and General, gave an employee ID of 0162 and a phone number 03330 004966. But weirdly, the number showing on my caller ID was 02871 816540. He tried to convince me to lower my direct debit, then handed me over to a woman who said she was his supervisor. She wanted me to set up a new direct debit, but she seemed clueless about how banking or direct debits actually work. Couldn’t answer some straightforward questions I threw at her. Felt like they were running some kind of scam script.Jack Richards6 yearsGot a call from someone wanting my bank info, pretty sure it was a scam. I just told them to bugger off and blocked the number straight away.6 yearsI'm from Essex and this number rang me two times today. The first time I answered but nobody said anything, then the line just went silent. Really frustrating, so I'm gonna block the number now.Essex6 yearsgot a call from a guy with a strong indian accent and terrible english, saying he was jack richards from domestic & general. he gave a phone number, 03330004966, very close to the real company line but slightly off by a couple of digits. he tried to convince me to renew my policy at a reduced rate and asked if i could stop my direct debit and provide my bank info again. i told him if he can't confirm my details, then he’s clearly not legit. d&g definitely don’t have an indian call centre or anyone by that name working there. no chance they made this call.Domestic & GeneralJack RichardsIndia6 yearsI only just said "hello" and they cut me off straight away.6 yearsI haven’t picked up, but appreciate the info. These calls are getting really annoying at this point.6 yearsGot a call from a guy with an asian accent who somehow knew both my name and where I live. He claimed I was shelling out £7 each month for some kind of domestic appliance insurance. When I questioned him about how he got that info, he just dropped the call. The weird thing is, I don’t even have any insurance like that!6 yearsGot this number from my mum’s phone, an elderly lady who’s a bit fuzzy on who actually called. No clue who it might be.6 yearsI’ve been using Call Guardian and honestly, it’s done a brilliant job for me.6 yearsI answered the phone but no one spoke. I looked up the number here and I’m clueless about who was calling. It was a blocked number. Possibly a scam, but I can’t say for certain.6 yearsI chose not to pick up since I didn’t know the number calling.7 yearsBe careful with this number. It’s definitely a scam, don’t fall for it!7 yearsJust missed a call from an unknown number. I reckon it’s probably a scam. This is the third time they’ve called me this week alone. Last time I answered, I told them I knew it was a scam and that the coppers had been informed, so they should stop calling. They hung up straightaway. Now they’re back but with a new number. These scammers are getting clever!7 yearsI’d advise steering clear of these individuals when it comes to discussions about appliance protection plans for your home. Best to keep your distance!7 yearsYet another dodgy call! They wanted my bank information to supposedly provide me with a better deal on my television insurance. Oddly enough, they had my details all wrong, using someone else's name and address-I didn’t even bother to set them straight! I'm absolutely knackered with these blatant scam attempts!7 yearsReceived a dodgy call from a number I don’t recognise. I have no idea who they are!7 yearsgot a call from an asian lady asking for me by name. since i wasnt expecting anyone to call me, i said the person she was looking for wasnt here. she just hung up straight away without saying anything else. felt like it was either some cold call or a scam.7 yearsI don't have any acquaintances in Londonderry.Londonderry7 yearsGot a call but they didn’t leave anything so dunno who it was.Submit Your Own Report (028 7181 6540)
