Woman with South African accent called from the "Washing Machine Warranty Department"

31 Aug 2022

Have repeated calls (sometimes 2 or 3 times a day) claiming to be D & G domestic Appliances. telling us that our cover has expired. Contaced the real D & G and confirmed that cover is still running. This is a scam.

The caller said they were from Domestic &General about my washing machine warranty. I didn’t give any details but she knew my name and address. I actually do have a warranty with D&G on my washing machine. I told her I couldn’t talk, so as she knew my address, to send what she was trying to tell, in writing, through the post. She put the phone down. It’s rather worrying that she knew my details without being told. Are Domestic &General leaking customer details?

This number is calling regularly, don't recognise it, so I ignore it. No message has ever been left on the answer phone. As with any number that I don't recognise , I automatically assume it's nuisance/scam calls.

they call on almost a daily basis, " calling on behalf of D&G" they have nothing to do with D&G I asked them to put the quote in the post and they put the phone down on me. Last year another company called "24/7" were doing the same who "have taken the place of D&G, as they have gone out of business" beware of them a well

They say they are calling from Domestic and General about a warranty for a washing machine. I’ve spoken to D&G who confirm it’s a scam call based in South Africa.
