Got a call from someone saying they were from ‘Darwin’ insurance. They said I was due a big payout because car claims had been undervalued. They wanted my email and date of birth, but I didn’t share any info. Felt fishy, especially since the number wasn’t even from Darwin insurance.

The so-called positive reviews here are just part of the scam. They tried charging me £1420 for two separate accidents - ridiculous! Absolute low-life scammers, very sloppy.

Received a letter claiming to be from Churchill insurance, seemed legit and quite professional at first glance, but the phone number just felt off. The details about my van were spot on and they said they owed me money, but it's definitely a scam. No one just hands out money like that, be careful!

This was definitely some kind of insurance con. Someone said they were from Churchill, then I got a letter with a cheque for over £800 for a car that was written off ages ago. The letter included this number as Churchill's contact, plus a suspicious email address. I called Churchill directly using the number from their official website, and they told me they never sent any cheque and aren’t giving me any extra cash for the old car. Best not to try and cash those cheques, it’s dodgy.

I got a letter out of the blue from Direct Line saying they owed me £1420 because of a crash 4 years back that completely wrote off our Audi A6 Quattro Avant. At first, I thought it might be some kind of fraud. Then about 10 days later, a cheque from Direct Line turned up in the post. I’m proper pleased about it! I never rang the number that was on the letters, just waited and saw what happened. Fingers crossed for anyone else who’s waiting on something like this!

Watch out! Loads of scammers put up fake 'safe' reviews on here. You really need to use your common sense with this stuff!

Hey everyone, just wanted to share something weird that happened last week. I got a letter from Direct Line Insurance saying they owed me £1420 for some accident payment from about 4 years back. At first, I figured it was some kind of scam. But then this morning, to my shock, a cheque showed up for £1420! Honestly, it made my day.

Actually, this is right - I saw a Guardian article that talks exactly about this subject.

Hey, got a letter saying I’m owed cash from a crash back in 2019, dated 10th May. Then I had a text on the 17th saying the payment’s been sent, but still nothing has turned up. Felt hopeful for a bit but now I’m thinking this could be a con.

After all that, I got a text and a letter from my insurance company. I decided to reach out to Direct Line through their Facebook chat, which I found at https://www.facebook.com/DirectLineUK. The claim number in the letter was the same one from 2018 they mentioned, and they were aware of the car registration along with the date of the incident. They assured me the refund they offered was legit, and that the phone number 03458785416 really is a "Direct Line number". Still waiting on the cheque though!

So I got a text saying I was owed £715.24 from a car accident back in 2019, claiming they’d undervalued the vehicle. The weird thing was, the message came from a number linked to genuine Churchill texts I'd had before. Still, I was a bit sceptical. When I got home, there was a letter “from Churchill” about the same accident, confirming the text message. It looked pretty legit with the Churchill logo and official style, but who contacts you about money from 4 or 5 years ago? That raised a red flag. The letter said I’d get a cheque within 15 days, and if not to ring a certain number. Feeling suspicious, I decided to check the number and, sadly, it turned out to be a scam. Really wish it wasn’t, as I could’ve used that cash! I’m sure plenty of gullible folks fall for this kind of thing, and then these con artists probably ring up again pretending there’s a delay to trick you into giving your bank details. Honestly, these scams need to be stopped!

Got what seemed like an insurance letter claiming to be from Direct Line about a claim from a couple of years back, saying I was due some extra cash. The way it was written felt a bit off, though they made it look pretty convincing. Luckily, I did some digging first. Watch out for this kind of scam!

Got a call today from some bloke trying to sell insurance. Seemed like a total spam call, kept pushing me without even asking if I was interested. I just hung up after a minute, no way I’m giving them my info or wasting time. These insurance cold calls are getting so annoying!

We never managed to reach Churchill directly, but after a few days and no contact from us, the payment showed up :) No need to hand over any personal details either. Just a heads up, always double-check who you’re dealing with before sharing your info. Better safe than sorry!

Got a letter supposedly from Churchill, but the phone number they included isn't listed anywhere on Churchill's official site. I’m planning to reach out to Churchill myself just to be safe. Don't trust the contact details they gave in the letter - best to get in touch with the company through their legitimate channels. And seriously, never share your personal details by email or phone unless you’re 100% sure you’re dealing with the genuine organisation.

Got a text supposedly from Direct Line about some accident payout I never got paid for. Felt a bit off to me, like it was one of those offers that’s just too perfect. You know what they say, when something seems too good it’s usually dodgy.

I got an email from this number saying it’s from Churcill Insurance. They mentioned something about an old accident claim and said I have a payment waiting to be made to me. They asked me to get in touch with them. Feels a bit dodgy to me.
