Reports on phone number 08007789104
9 monthsThey really take advantage of elderly and vulnerable folks. Somehow, my personal info and bank details have been nicked. I’d seriously advise everyone to steer clear of this lot.1 yearI got a letter from them saying they’d withdraw money from my account. I ended up reporting it to Action Fraud.Action Fraud2 yearsThis lot are a total rip-off, targeting old and vulnerable folks. My gran’s been left proper stressed out thanks to them. They somehow convinced her to hand over her bank details and now there’s a dodgy direct debit set up, which I’m sorting to cancel asap. These scumbags should be taken to court and shut down for good!2 yearsI got a call from a bloke called John Wilson - bit strange name for a guy with an Indian accent. He was talking about giving me £198 for being a loyal member of his firm, and said I’d get a confirmation letter through the post. Then he asked me to verify my bank details so he could send the money straight to my account. I couldn’t get why he needed that when he already knew my direct debit info. Well, guess it was a 20-minute distraction while I was having my coffee break. Let’s see what comes of it now.John Wilson2 yearsHe called, said my home appliance insurance was still valid and even knew my bank number. Mentioned they’d ring me next Monday. I’m a bit iffy about it though!2 yearsI had a chat with an elderly family member who suffers from dementia, and shockingly, these people already had her bank info. I have no idea how they got hold of it since she never shared any details. They managed to set up a direct debit for £170, which I noticed on the banking app and cancelled straight away. I phoned them up to say it was unauthorised and told them not to ring again. Honestly, they should be stopped - it’s awful how they target vulnerable folks like her.2 yearsLast week someone rang my elderly mum, claiming she could forget about paying her TV fees for the next couple of years. They somehow already had her debit card details. Mum rushed to the bank to report it and got her card cancelled, but this sneaky person had already taken £178 from her account before she even received her replacement card. I'm proper angry about it and definitely planning to do more about it.2 yearsSo, this outfit purported to be Reliable Appliances Repair (a rather amusing name, if you ask me!). They had the audacity to inform me I was entitled to a whopping 40% refund on a two-year insurance package for certain household appliances - apparently including a fridge-freezer, television, and washing machine, none of which I even own! Quite the cheek, isn't it? They possessed my name and address, and tried to get me to verify my bank details to process this 'rebate'. Naturally, I wasn’t having any of it and promptly stated I recognised their little scheme for what it was - a scam! I bid them farewell without a second thought.Reliable Appliances Repair2 yearsElderly folks are getting targeted with these scam calls, then they try to sneak through fake direct debits. If you call them out, they just turn rude and aggressive. I really urge anyone who's been caught out by this to report it to Action Fraud. Also, make sure to leave bad reviews for both Reliable Appliance Repairs and Sparta Telecom from Luton - seems like they’re linked or maybe even the same business. It’s important people know what’s going on!Action FraudReliable Appliance RepairsSparta TelecomLuton2 yearsSteer clear of this lot. They take advantage of the elderly, coaxing them into signing up for services they didn't ask for. I've got a feeling they may be filching bank information from elsewhere, as I've noticed some dodgy direct debits appearing out of the blue. Best to hang up and blacklist their number immediately.Best2 yearsThey keep ringing my uncle even though he’s got Alzheimer’s, and I’m pretty sure they know about his condition.2 yearsTotal con artist, absolutely dodgy.3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from BT, asking my 92-year-old mum if she was having issues with her phone line. Then they wanted to confirm her address, bank details, and whether she uses direct debit. Luckily she was sharp enough to ring her bank quickly once suspicions arose, so fingers crossed nothing dodgy went down. Honestly, these firms are disgusting and need to be tracked down and taken to court.BT3 yearsGot a call from this lady Esther trying to sell me TV insurance, said it was their free number. I told her I wanted to see the paperwork before agreeing to any direct debit, and nope, I wasn’t giving out my birthday - what’s that got to do with a TV repair deal? Definitely seemed dodgy to me.Esther3 yearsI got a letter from Reliable Appliance Repairs about a Direct Debit, and this phone number was on it. Looks like they’ve switched up their approach this time.3 yearsI got a call from 08007789104, some guy who said his name was Steven, trying to get me to give my bank info for some TV insurance. I gave him fake details and said I’d call back later. The original call came from 01564330568. When I tried calling back, no one picked up. Didn’t bother ringing the 0800 number again - can’t be bothered with scammers. At least I wasted about 15 mins of their time!Steven3 yearsSo this bloke John, sounded Indian, was ringing me up offering TV insurance. When I mentioned the reviews I’d read about this number, he got a bit annoyed and kept going on about how my bank details were supposedly public info, like I’d just hand them over. Yeah, right!John3 yearsGot a call from 08007780104, they left a voicemail about some insurance for my appliances. Checked the number here and found out its listed as a scam. Definitely not legit!3 yearsHe called saying he needed my bank info to offer a cheaper phone plan. I told him I’d just signed a two-year contract earlier today. He didn’t look too happy about that. Pretty obvious it was some kind of scam.3 yearsHad a call from someone saying they were checking my household appliances! Seemed a bit off to me.3 yearsMy elderly mother received an unsolicited call from them. It's definitely a scam, no doubt about it.4 yearsGot a call from some bloke named Max, sounded Indian, asking for cash to fix a TV. Bit dodgy if you ask me.MaxIndia4 yearsI almost broke my record by keeping them on the line for 15 minutes and 54 seconds. So close!4 yearsFraud alert - they’re after your banking information.4 yearsI’ve had to put this pesky robot caller on my blocked list!4 yearsI received a call from someone purporting to be from a reputable company that repairs appliances and offers insurance. They were trying to sell me insurance for all my home’s electrical items and bombarded me with questions. To be honest, I have my doubts about their authenticity!4 yearsThis bloke calling himself "Steve James" spoke with a heavy Indian accent, barely made sense of what he was saying. I kept him chatting and fed him a load of rubbish to mess with his head. Seriously, why isn't this treated as a proper crime? They should throw these scammers in jail for at least a decade. That’d probably make them think twice before bothering anyone again!Steve James4 yearsI got a call from a woman called Sophia, trying to get me to sign up for TV insurance at 5.99 pounds each month. She seemed to know where I lived, but I gave her a fake birthdate. Then she passed me to a bloke named David - his accent sounded a bit sketchy if you ask me - who asked for my bank info. I gave him nonsense details to waste their time. After a while, he must have got fed up and just hung up.SophiaDavid4 yearsI really hope no one is getting tricked by what these folks are saying. When I said no to sharing my bank details, they got pretty aggressive. They also handed me a number to ring them back on.4 yearsDodgy scammer from overseas, watch out!4 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be legit, but it was all a con. They were pushing TV insurance to older folks, just trying to get them to throw cash away on something pointless. Can’t trust these scammers at all.5 yearsThis morning I got a call from a bloke with an Indian accent, he said his name was Sam. When I asked for his last name, he told me it was Jones. He kept going on about a deal to insure my telly for £5.99 a month. I asked where he was located, and he claimed they had offices all across the UK. Then, out of the blue, he just hung up.SamJonesUK5 yearsThe call came from someone saying they were from Reliable Appliance Repair, which sounded pretty dodgy to me. Definitely not convinced it was legit.5 yearsThey said they were dependable appliance repair folk, but right from the start I knew something was off. When they asked for my dob, I just gave them rubbish. They kept rattling on about what brands my appliances were, so I fed them nonsense there too. Next thing you know, they’re after my bank details! I wasn’t having any of it and told them to jog on, with a good old strong swear word thrown in for good measure.5 yearsGot a call from someone trying to sell me appliance insurance, basically wanting me to hand over my bank info. They kept pushing it, saying that if I ever needed an engineer, I should call their number. Kept switching between calling me ma’am and sir, which was a bit odd. I just told them my existing insurance already covers the appliances and I'd use my insurance’s engineer if necessary.6 yearsI got a call from 02085783285 about some tv repair insurance. They started asking for my age, DOB and if my address was correct. Then they wanted my bank info. When I said I don’t have any bank details handy, the person told me to call 08007789104 to organise a direct debit. I said no thanks and then the caller got quite rude.Submit Your Own Report (0800 778 9104)
