Reports on phone number 08008600292
8 yearsI received a phone call earlier from a lady claiming to be affiliated with Prestige. She mentioned that a chap would be in my vicinity later and intended to ring me at 5:30 PM to discuss ways to prevent my property from being sold should I require care in the future. It's rather clear to me that this company is just interested in lining their pockets. I've heard from acquaintances who signed up for a similar programme that it was quite costly and they weren't particularly convinced of its efficacy. Consequently, I politely declined their proposal. It’s rather frustrating that these individuals feel entitled to disturb you with such unsolicited calls.Prestige8 yearsIf you're fed up with annoying cold callers like this lot, there are a few options depending on your phone provider. For instance, TalkTalk offers a service named callSafe. BT have their own version called Call Protect, which reportedly blocks around 30 million dodgy calls every week. Plusnet also uses a system called Call Protect, and Sky users can try out a similar feature known as Talk Shield. Worth checking out to cut down on those pestering calls!TalkTalkBTPlusnetSky8 yearsGot a call from Prestige, I decided to just hang up straight away. It was the first time they rang me, but I've been getting loads of scam calls lately so I figured it’s best not to answer.Prestige8 yearsI don't think the care act actually exists!9 yearsI got a call from some Prestige person chatting about the care act. When I asked why they were ringing me, she just kept going on about the care act stuff. I’m on the TPS so these calls shouldn’t be happening, but I still get them quite a lot. It’s really annoying.PrestigeTelephone Preference Service9 yearsGot a call from 0800 860 0292, the caller asked if I was having internet issues - what a load of rubbish. Sounds like something a total muppet would say, making folks think their computer’s been hacked or summat. I reckon these people are just messing about, maybe out at the pub or a nightclub and decide to waste their time doing these scams or pranks. It’s proper annoying and just plain harassment.9 yearsI received a rather unexpected phone call from a lady named Laura, who hails from England. She engaged me in a discussion about the potential need to sell our property in order to cover future care costs. I must admit, she was quite courteous and even provided her contact number should we wish to follow up. However, I must say, unsolicited calls aren't really our cup of tea!LauraEngland9 yearsI got called but as soon as the answerphone kicked in, they just hung up without saying a word or leaving any message.9 yearsI received a rather unsettling call from someone trying to frighten me into revealing intimate details regarding our contingency plans for a potential loss of our home to cover care costs. I made it abundantly clear that such matters are none of their concern and I refuse to engage with unsolicited callers at any time.9 yearsLike a lot of folks here, I got a call from some group named Prestige about some "care package". I mentioned I’m on the TPS list and the lady said they weren’t trying to sell anything but would put the phone down if I wanted. I said yes, and she promptly did. After seeing other posts, it feels a bit like harassment to me. It worries me how many more vulnerable people might fall for this sort of thing.PrestigeTelephone Preference Service9 yearsThis morning I received a call from a company called Prestige. When I asked where they got my number from, they said it came from some third-party list. Honestly, their approach worries me because it feels like they’re targeting older folks, and I’m sure it would frighten a lot of them. It looked like anyone over 50 is being contacted. I told them I wasn’t interested, then later rang them again to insist they take my number off their list since I’m already on the TPS registry.PrestigeTelephone Preference Service9 yearsI received a call implying that due to a recent law, the authorities could seize both your home and savings, and they’re eager to discuss it with you! It's nothing but fearmongering, aimed at pressuring you into purchasing their services.9 yearsJust like others have said, they phoned me even though I’m on the TPS. They kept saying there was folks nearby and tried to persuade me to have a chat about avoiding care bills, like stopping you from losing your house and all that. I mentioned they seemed a bit suspicious which made them quite defensive. They were really vague about what their service actually was or if it’d cost anything. I was pretty straightforward and told them I wasn’t interested at all.Telephone Preference Service9 yearsThey rang my Mum, who’s in her 90s, about paying for some kind of care. They said they’d come round to her place at 4pm to have a chat. She was really stressed about it and called me to keep her company. I took her out for a while, so it was just the dog at home when they supposedly arrived. Not sure if anyone actually showed up. It’s so frustrating because my Mum’s number is on the TPS list.9 yearsI couldn't pick up the phone when they rang, and there wasn't a voicemail left either!9 yearsThey’ve called me again and again, even tho they’ve been told by the TPS to stop. The lady on the phone admitted she got my number from a supposedly trustworthy source along with loads of others. When I pointed out they’re breaking the law by calling someone on the TPS register, she promised to take me off their list. Still i can’t believe they keep ringing!Telephone Preference ServiceTPS9 yearsThe folks who rang you are from Prestige Tax and Trust Services, which is linked to Silver Rose Marketing.

The government doesn't have the funds; it's really our money they're using. Why should others pay taxes to look after my mum when I can do that myself? I don’t mind contributing my taxes to help those who genuinely can’t afford their care. I’m alright now, but in the future, I might need that support system, so I’ve got to back it while I’m able to. Watch out though, I reckon they might be trying to buy your house and then rent it back to you - feels like they’re exploiting our worries about getting older.9 yearsI got a call from this number earlier, but I couldn’t tell who it was from the display. I checked my voicemail after but there was nothing left. Honestly, why call if you’re not going to say anything? If I needed to speak to them, I’d ring them first. So yeah, just stop bothering me!9 yearsThe information appeared credible at first glance, yet they turned down any additional guidance.9 yearsRegarding those care packages and the threat of losing one’s home - it feels more like fear-mongering than anything else.9 yearsI’m just ringing my mum to chat about her well-being.9 yearsGot a call from a girl claiming her company offers free advice on stopping your home from being sold to cover care costs. I arranged to meet their rep at first but ended up calling back today to cancel. When I rang, someone called "Apex" picked up and said the office was shut, asking me to leave a message and specify which company it was regarding. Sounds like multiple firms share that same number.Apex9 yearsgot three silent calls from this number today, bit weird really9 yearsPrestige rang us up to talk about ‘The Care Act’. My husband took the call and heard them out, then said we weren’t interested. The very next day Chloe phoned back, trying to explain it all again. She didn’t seem to accept we’d already heard it and kept trying to quiz me on the details, like she was looking for me to slip up or something.PrestigeChloe9 yearsThey never said outright, but the call had them asking about who actually lives at the address and even rang a few folks who currently stay here.9 yearsGot a bunch of calls from the same number all within minutes. Tried calling back but just got the answerphone and no one left a message. Really irritating and kinda unsettling.9 yearsI got a call from some outfit called Prestige, going on about the Care Act and how the government might be able to sell your house to pay for care fees. They said they could provide free legal advice, which sounded alright at first. The person was quite friendly, but I can't help feeling it’s just another scam like those dodgy PPI calls. Nothing’s really free these days, is there?Prestige9 yearsThey rang our voicemail but chose not to leave a message or any contact information.9 yearsI received a call from someone who had an Asian accent but claimed to have a British name. They wanted to know my opinion on the government buying my house to pay for care expenses. Honestly, I found the question rather insulting and promptly ended the conversation. There’s something quite misleading about an Asian-sounding voice paired with a British name in my opinion. To me, if someone is dishonest once, they’ll probably be dishonest again. So, I decided it was best to just hang up.9 yearsWhat’s the process behind them obtaining your name and phone number?9 yearsPrestige is a firm, I think, that deals with info and what looks like rules to keep homeowners and anyone with savings safe from footing the bill for care when they get ill, disabled, or age-related conditions. Sounds like they help protect you in those tough times.Prestige9 yearsI'm curious if anyone can shed some light on whose number this might be?Submit Your Own Report (0800 860 0292)
