Phone number ☎️ 08004970794 👆 is reported as a persistent cold-calling number frequently linked to Domestic and General, reportedly contacting customers about expiring appliance warranties or insurance renewals. Many users find the calls intrusive, with no messages left and occasional silent or hang-up calls. While some confirm it as a legitimate sales or marketing contact from warranty providers, others suspect scams due to aggressive calls, requests for personal details, and lack of transparent communication. Callers often display knowledge of past purchases, yet pressures to confirm sensitive information raise concerns. Blocking the number is common, and users advise caution, recommending not answering unknown calls or sharing personal data. Official reporting of suspicious activity is encouraged to combat possible fraud.

Got a call from this number, but it felt like some kind of scam. I answered but said nothing, and they didn’t say a word either. It was dead silent before they suddenly ended the call. I’ve blocked the number now since I’ve no idea who it is.

This number just called me again but didn’t leave a message. I’m done, going to block it now.

I don't understand why this number keeps ringing me, but they never actually say anything or leave a voicemail... it's seriously frustrating!

I had a bloke on the phone with the thickest Scottish accent I think I've ever heard, couldn't catch a single word! I said something about a bad line and then he just ended the call.

They keep ringing, but I just don't answer since it’s always about selling me some new policy for my old stuff which hardly needs coverage! That said, D&G are pretty decent insurers and they do sort out claims and fix ups properly. Still, I wish they'd quit with the constant cold calls cos it’s getting really annoying now.

Got a call from this number but no message left. From what I’ve seen in these reviews, D&G seem to be ringing about some kind of product insurance. These calls drive me mad! You block one number and then they’re back on the phone from a completely different one, sometimes even from a mobile. Proper frustrating!

For the last few days, I've been getting missed calls from this number. I haven't picked up any of them. Reading through the reviews here, it seems like they might be trying to sell me an extension on a fridge freezer warranty that’s just expired, which I’m not interested in continuing anyway.

I've been getting calls from this number multiple times a week, but they never leave a voicemail. It’s connected to an appliance of mine that’s just gone past its guarantee period, and they did send me a letter about it. I’m not interested in any extended warranty offers though. Luckily, my phone's scam blocker keeps stopping their calls.

Got loads of calls from this number over the past few weeks. When I picked up but stayed quiet, all I could hear was people chatting loudly in the background, sounded like an office with Asian accents. Definitely felt dodgy, like a scam or something.

They ring frequently, maybe every few days, but never leave a voicemail. I think it's from Domestic & General.

If this is actually Domestic and General, they really don’t get that most folks with a bit of sense won’t pick up for some random cold call. Almost always, even if the person sounds British, it’s a scam. There’s just so many of those fake extended warranty calls going around. I hung up quick but then wondered if maybe it was genuine. If there’s a real promotion for extending a warranty, they ought to just send an email with all the specifics about the deal and the appliance. Plus, the call centre people should be properly trained or reported if they’re not handling it right.

So I got a call earlier, and the person immediately asked if I had recently purchased a washing machine. I did, but it was rubbish so I ended up chucking it out, although they had no clue about that. They were fishing for info, but honestly, they weren’t very convincing. Pretty clear it was a scam.

I got a call from someone who already had my name. They claimed they were from domestic and general and asked for my postcode, which I didn’t want to share. They mentioned I’d purchased a washing machine before, which is true. I told them I wasn’t interested in chatting and if it was important, they could write to my address. Not sure if it was genuine or not, but better to be safe.

I checked the number and it came up as Virgin Media, so since I was expecting a call from them, I rang it back. But it was actually Domestic and General who answered. I mentioned I had gotten a Beko fridge a while ago but the warranty had expired, wondered if they were offering some insurance. The lady said no, it was just a marketing call. When I said it felt a bit dodgy, she agreed it’s good to be careful these days. Anyway just to be clear, the number was 0794 something.

Not long ago, I decided to stop getting emails from a company that was trying to flog me insurance for my fridge freezer. Looks like, judging by what others have said, it's probably the same lot ringing me up now.
5 months
So, I got a call from Domestic and General, and they already had info about something I bought a year back. They wanted to offer me insurance since the original warranty had finished. I rang them back using a phone number I found on their official website to make sure it was legit. They recognised my call and even had the record of it. Soon after, they sent the policy documents through. They do ring quite frequently, which is why I thought it was just spam and didn’t pick up before now.

Just like some others have said, I reckon it’s Domestic & General ringing about some warranty renewal. I just didn’t bother, not interested at all. They don’t bother to leave any voicemail either.

They rang me again today at 11:50, I also missed a call from them last Tuesday. Neither time have they left a voicemail message. Honestly, if it was something important or legit, they’d have left a voicemail by now. Not really sure who it is.
5 months
They called me two days in a row, but I didn’t answer either time and there was no voicemail left. After checking out some other comments, it seems like it might be a legit call from Domestic and General about a warranty that’s run out. I’m not bothered about renewing it though, so I’ll just keep giving it a miss.
5 months
My phone flagged this number as spam, so I ended up ignoring a few calls from it.

I got a call from Domestic and General regarding the warranty for my washing machine. What really freaked me out was how much personal stuff they already knew - like my inside leg length and even how many blokes I've been with this year, which is 8 if you're wondering!

Got a call from someone claiming to be Legal and General about some candy device. Sounds like a total scam to me. Just blocked the number and didn’t share any info. Better safe than sorry!
5 months
Picked up the phone but there was silence on the other end before they hung up. If the rumours about this being Domestic & General are true, I don’t see why they’re bothering to call me since I’ve unsubscribed from every marketing and service message. Blocked them straight away and didn’t look back.

Didn't pick up when this number rang. But from what people are saying and since I’m aware my kitchen appliance warranty is about to expire, I’m guessing it's Domestic and General trying to reach me.

Got a call from an unknown number. I usually don’t pick up unless I know who it is, and my voicemail asks folks to leave a message if it’s important. No message came through, so I just blocked the number.

Was out for a stroll, phone tucked away in my backpack, when this number called me. Just as I pulled my phone out, the call ended. My phone flagged it as a scam call. Last year I did buy a washing machine but had to send it back because it was broken. Maybe this is someone actually trying to sort out a repair?

I got a call from this number, but the moment I picked up they just hung up on me, felt a bit dodgy if you ask me.

About twenty minutes back I got a call while chatting with a mate, so I quickly ended that call to pick up this one. I said hello like three times but no one answered, just quiet on the other end before they suddenly disconnected.

Got a call from Domestic & General trying to sell me something. They already had my details and told me my washing machine warranty was nearly up.

I got a call from this number out of the blue, about an LG TV I bought from Richer Sounds last year. The guy seemed to know quite a bit, like my name, address, and details about the TV. He was trying to sell me an extended warranty for a cheap yearly fee. Then he pushed for me to set up a direct debit to pay for it. When I said I’d only agree if it was done by email, he said it wasn’t company policy and insisted on doing everything over the phone. I said no thanks and now I’m pretty sure it was dodgy - trying to scam my bank info even though he had a lot of my purchase info.

I got calls from this number loads of times and even tho I saw ppl saying it was spam, I picked up anyway. Turns out it’s legit, part of a yearly survey I do for "Understanding Society".

I got a call from a woman saying she was following up on my Domestic & General cover to give me some deals to prolong it. She asked for my full name and where I live. The background noise was loud and the connection was terrible, which made me suspicious. Pretty sure it was just a scam.
