Got a call saying I'd hit my mobile spending cap but they didn't mention any company name. Definitely a scam.

This number has called me twice before but hung up the moment I answered. Definitely a scam, watch out!

I got a call and then a voicemail was left. You could hear voices in the background like there were a few people there.

This bloke was proper pushy, telling me my washing machine's warranty was about to expire, but mine's actually ten years old, not four. I told him that, and then he started banging on about insurance for my cooker, fridge and freezer as well. I kept telling him I wouldn’t be giving any personal info or signing up over the phone. Eventually, he just gave up and hung up.

I’ve noticed that if you just keep quiet and don’t say anything, the caller usually hangs up after a bit. It seems like those automated systems only connect calls where someone actually talks. So if you just stay silent, most of the time the call never properly connects. After a few times like that, it looks like your phone number stops being targeted at all. Since I stopped responding and let them talk first, the number of annoying calls I get has dropped a lot. Honestly, just don’t say a word and see what happens - it works every time!

Got a call from Platinum Home Care again, number they used was spoofed. This was the second time they called me from this fake number. She hung up after just 36 seconds. Definitely a scam, they’ve used other spoofed numbers before too. Avoid!

Got my fifth call just now - “Your washing machine warranty has expired. Want to renew?” The very first call came exactly 20 years after I bought the warranty, which means they must have access to some kinda confidential info (cheers, Currys). I told them no thanks and when they started pushing insurance on my other appliances, I said no again, hung up, and blocked the number. They’ve called me from five different numbers so far. And yep, blocked all five. My block list is now well over a hundred numbers long. Honestly, if you let some random cold caller convince you to buy stuff or spill personal info, you kinda have it coming. Should be a lesson. Enough said. Come on you lot - time to burst that Wrexham/Hollywood bubble!

Right as I answered, they hung up on me. First time I've had a call from that spoofed number. Definitely a scam.

No one said a word when they called. Found this site, gave the number a look, and put it on my block list.

Got a call from a woman with an accent saying my washing machine warranty had run out, but it was for a place I moved out of more than 15 years ago. Didn’t hang about, just blocked the number straight away.

I received a call earlier today, the 31st of January 2023, at around half three in the afternoon. The caller mentioned something about my white goods and a special platinum deal. Curiously, I had a similar call just before Christmas from a number that started with 08455 571485. When I inquired about their location, the lady claimed she was ringing from London but rather vaguely responded with "from a flat in London" when I pressed for specifics. Quite dodgy, if you ask me!

At around 6pm today, 27/1/23, I got the same old washing scam call again. These lot just don’t stop trying. Funny how almost every one of them seems to be Asian people. Anyone got any idea why that is? Send your thoughts if the post is still running, haha!

I got a call from 08455571482, and the first thing I heard was a message asking me to accept the call from that number. I didn’t answer and just ended it straight away. When I checked the number online, turns out it’s a scam.

This number rang me up, left a voicemail that really sounded scary about some legal trouble if I didn’t ring them back. Made me a bit nervous to be honest.

You'd have to be mad to give out your bank info to anyone.

At 11:56 this morning, on the 28th of October 2022, I received yet another call from those common "Asian con artists with their dodgy washing machine schemes". Honestly, it feels like the UK has become the epicentre of scams in Europe!

Just got a call at 11:56 on 28/10/22 from those same Asian scammers pushing some insurance nonsense like yesterday. I didn't hold back and told her to get lost.

Just had a call today, 27/10, from someone pretending to be from an insurance company - total scam. Why do these scams never seem to stop? Seems like the UK is full of these so-called scammers, mostly Asian from what i can tell. Honestly it’s like there’s no way to put an end to this nonsense.

I received a rather dubious offer to extend the warranty on my washing machine, but the reality is that my current warranty still has quite a bit of time left before it runs out. It seems pretty clear that this is just a scam aimed at fishing for my bank details!

I received a phone call telling me my washing machine's warranty was about to run out. I told them to either post me the information or send it to my email. When they asked for my email address, I said it should already be on the warranty info they have.

Got a call from 0845 5571482 saying my Hoover washing machine warranty was nearly up. They kept pushing me to verify my address, but I told them no since I don’t even own a Hoover. The woman, Vanessa or something, messed up my name and sounded really pushy. She insisted she wouldn’t share any details until I confirmed my address, which I just wouldn’t do. Feels dodgy to me - is this a legit call or some kinda scam?

I’ve had a few calls from this number recently. The guy on the other end said his name was William and claimed his company offers insurance for household electric and gas appliances for only £24.99. That price seemed quite reasonable compared to what we pay D & G for similar coverage. He asked me for my bank details, like account number and sort code, but I told him to ring me back at 3pm later today. Honestly, I don’t feel comfortable giving out my bank info over the phone without seeing any paperwork first.

Got a call supposedly from Platinum Home Care about insurance for electrical items. They wanted me to give my sort code and bank account details. Asked them to call back the next day. Not too sure if it’s a legit call or just a scam. Has anyone else had anything like this?
