8 yearsI received a call informing me that it was my current company on the line. It is vital to avoid using this company at all costs, as they are actually scammers. It's disappointing that another scam company has emerged, and they are based in Bournemouth.Bournemouth9 yearsI have encountered several instances over the past month where I had to address issues by myself. On another occasion, this company claimed to be dealing with nuisance phone calls linked to Virgin Media. They even mentioned the first four digits of my debit card, which I later realized are common for all cards from my bank. It turned out to be a scam. They made about 10 calls within a few weeks, employing a similar tactic used by the Gas Company as well.Virgin MediaGas Company10 yearsMy mother is 82 years old and unfortunately, my father is suffering from dementia. Yesterday evening at 8:45 pm, a group of individuals contacted us. Then at 9:30 the next morning, my vulnerable mother fell prey to their deceitful tactics and engaged in conversation with them. The scammers sent her a letter detailing their supposed services along with a page for her to fill in her bank details. Recognizing the potential danger, I intercepted the mail and promptly disposed of it, disgusted by such lowly individuals.10 yearsYesterday, they called me and informed me about their home emergency insurance. I acquired the insurance, but they mentioned that it would only cover the boiler up to £5000.

Nevertheless, I chose not to make a return call.10 yearsI received a call from this particular number, trying to sell me emergency home insurance.
