Reports on phone number 03339998849
7 monthsThe caller only said "Hello", with no mention of a name, which seemed pretty dodgy and quite generic. So I looked it up online and found it on who-called-me.co.uk. Apparently, it’s a well known scam linked to car insurance.9 monthsI got an email claiming my car was in an accident and it was my fault, but that’s rubbish since the car was waiting for its MOT. Definitely a load of nonsense. If it was legit, my insurance would have called me first. Watch out, this has got scam written all over it!11 monthsTOTALLY A SCAM, WATCH OUT!1 yearGot an email today (26th Jan '25) claiming to be from HASTINGS DIRECT, saying I was to blame for a car accident supposedly in Dec ‘24. The message looked really legit and even used my first name, which threw me off at first. But after checking the route I took that day, I realised no accident had happened. I then used this site to look up the phone number they used, and it wasn’t connected to Hastings Direct at all! Definitely DO NOT TRUST any emails like this!HASTINGS DIRECTHastings Direct2 yearsI got a letter claiming I was involved in an accident, but that’s not true at all.2 yearsI got a text, email and even a letter all saying they were from Hastings Direct about me being in a crash. I havent dialled the number given as it looks dodgy to me. I definitely wasn't involved in any accident. It feels like it could be someone on the inside because it's all very professional and they have some info that makes it seem real.Hastings Direct2 yearsGot a text from someone pretending to be Hastings insurance, said there was some kind of claim against my car. Absolutely a scam, don’t trust it!Hastings2 yearsI got a text and an email from this number asking for my info, but when I tried to ask them basic things like what security measures Hastings actually takes, they couldn’t answer properly. All they kept saying was "we're Hastings". Honestly, it was so obvious it was a scam, made me chuckle.Hastings2 yearsGot a call and a text from someone claiming to be Hastings, but they used the wrong name on me. Definitely sounded like a scam to me.Hastings2 yearsGot an email saying I'd been in a crash and it was my fault. They wanted me to ring a number. It seemed legit and like it was coming from my insurance lot.2 yearsJust got a message from someone saying it was Hastings saying I needed to call about some accident. Thing is, I’ve never had any accident and I’m never with Hastings anyway, so I just ignored it.Hastings3 yearsI don’t usually get texts from Hastings about accident stuff, so after seeing the reviews I just blocked that number. Felt a bit dodgy tbh. If it’s really them, why now all of a sudden textin’? Nope, call them directly instead!Hastings3 yearsReceived a message from Hastings about a claim filed against me, which baffled me since I haven’t had any accidents. Then got an email with the same info, so I called them up. They confirmed a claim is indeed logged in my name, but the incident supposedly happened miles away from where I live - about a 2.5 hour drive! They said they’d note my side and check if any proof shows up. Mentioned it could be a mix-up with the car’s number plate, but I’m kind of worried it might be some kind of dodgy insurance scam. Now I’m just waiting for them to get back to me.Hastings3 yearsYet another caller trying to pull a fast one with a dodgy car accident claim!3 yearsI received a call from someone yammering on about a car crash and an insurance claim.
