Phone number ☎️ 08000901999 👆 is reported as a Bournemouth-based scam company targeting mainly elderly and vulnerable individuals with persistent calls offering bogus home emergency insurance and services. Callers often falsely claim affiliation with well-known utilities or councils, use pressure tactics, and demand personal or banking information early in the conversation. Many victims have expressed distress and suspicion, noting the company's aggressive and manipulative approach, including sending misleading letters. Reputable companies deny connection, and the firm’s practices have drawn accusations of fraud and harassment. Potential callers are strongly advised not to share any personal data, avoid engagement, and consider reporting the number to relevant authorities or trading standards to prevent further victimisation.

9 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be my current provider. I wouldn’t deal with this company under any circumstances. It’s another scam, clearly from a Bournemouth outfit trying to trick folks.Bournemouth10 yearsOver the course of a few weeks, I got calls from different people but I always took the call myself. Once, a company claimed they were ringing about some nuisance calls linked to Virgin Media and even mentioned the first four digits of my debit card - which I later realised is something all my bank cards share, no secret there. It was obviously a scam. They rang me nearly ten times in just a few weeks. They even tried the old Gas Company line too. Proper annoying and dodgy behaviour.Virgin MediaGas Company10 yearsMy dad is struggling with dementia and my mum’s 82. These idiots rang at half past eight at night and then again the next morning at half past nine. Mum’s quite trusting and ended up chatting with them. They even posted a letter with information about their “services” and a form asking for bank details. Luckily, I saw the letter and just dumped it straight in the bin. Absolute scammers.10 yearsYesterday, I got a call about home emergency insurance. They mentioned something about covering my boiler for up to £5000, which sounds a bit odd since I already have insurance. The call kept dropping on me, so I’m not sure if they hung up first or wanted me to call them back. Either way, I didn’t bother returning the call.10 yearsI got a call from this number trying to push emergency home insurance on me. They started asking for personal details, but since I didn’t know anything about the company, I just didn’t share anything and hung up. Weirdly, they even asked for both mine and my husband’s birthdays right near the start of the call, which I found a bit off.10 yearsThis has gotta be a total scam, no doubt about it. Scam all the way. Scam for sure!10 yearsGot another call about insurance I neither want nor asked for. Totally a SCAM SCAM SCAM SCAM SCAM SCAM!10 yearsThis number keeps calling me and it's really making me anxious and stressed out. I’m 93 years old and it’s becoming too much for me to handle. Can someone please help?10 yearsI just got a call trying to sell some kind of sky cover insurance to my elderly mum. Felt a bit dodgy, especially since she wasn’t expecting any calls like that. Sounds like one of those pushy sales calls targeting older folks. Really annoyed about it.Sky Cover10 yearsGot a call from these people just now saying they’re about to take over British Gas. I quickly told them that wasn’t true.British Gas10 yearsAbsolute scam, watch out!10 yearsAvoid this company at all costs. They keep ringing up older ladies trying to sell insurance policies that are completely unnecessary. Seriously, don’t get involved or buy anything from them, it's a total scam.10 yearsThey've rung me up twice now, first trying to push some Sky insurance on me, then ringing again about emergency plumbing. My husband, who was very unwell, ended up buying that Sky insurance before he sadly passed away. Now, some bloke called Richard is on the phone trying to sell me the same thing. Watch out, they're really persistent and quite a pushy young guy!SkyRichard11 yearsThey rang this older bloke pretending to be from the council, saying it was about insurance for a personal alarm they supposedly put in. Bit dodgy if you ask me.11 yearsI gave this number a ring, and it turns out they're operating under the name Home Emergency Assist. If you want to sort out a policy, chat about what's on offer, or handle customer questions, you can ring them on 0800 09 01 999. Their office hours are 10am to 6pm Monday through Thursday, and 10am to 4pm on Fridays. Need to file a claim at any hour? There's a 24/7 claims line at 0845 21 80 434 - just have your policy info ready. You can also send mail to: Home Emergency Assist, 8 Trinity, 161 Old Christchurch Road, Bournemouth, Dorset, BH1 1JU. Sounds like Trading Standards might want to take a look at these guys!Home Emergency AssistTrinityOld Christchurch Road BournemouthDorset11 yearsI've been trying to persuade my missus that the call was about an issue with our home insurance's emergency service. Problem is, there’s nothing wrong, so I haven't bothered calling them back!11 yearsMy nan got a call from someone pretending to be from Sky insurance, total scam. Made her really worried for a bit before I told her it was fake. Watch out for these tricks!Sky12 yearsGot a call that seemed like a scam, they were trying to push an elderly lady into paying twice for her insurance which would’ve cost her over a hundred quid every year. Luckily, her bank details weren’t set up for direct debits, so nothing got taken.12 yearsMy mum just got a call from this number and it really stressed her out. The guy said his name was Nick and gave some extension number, 7413, I think. He claimed he could manage her plumbing insurance for less money, making it sound like he had full access to her account. It honestly scared her, as if he already knew all her bank info. I feel like this sort of company preys on people who don’t know better just to make a quick buck. They need to be reported!Nick12 yearsI recently encountered what seems to be a rather dubious insurance scam. They purport to be taking over Homeserve and have the gall to claim that they possess knowledge of my card details. However, I’ve confirmed that Homeserve has no association with these chaps whatsoever. Quite alarming, really!Homeserve12 yearsJust had a look at the beginning of my card statement, and I can confirm I’ve had absolutely no interaction with these people whatsoever! Total scam!12 yearsReceived a call from a firm named Home Emergency Assist. They claimed they were looking to switch my drains and plumbing insurance to a more affordable rate. Strangely, they requested my debit card details! They even mentioned they supposedly had four of my numbers already on file!Home Emergency Assist12 yearsCalls up and inquires about personal information regarding insurance matters.13 yearsCalls and then just disconnects.Submit Your Own Report (0800 090 1999)
