2 calls in the last week, didn't answer either of them, no voicemails were left. After reading the previous reports about it being D&G, fake or legitimate, I have never had any dealings with D&G so there is no reason at all for them to be contacting me.

Very convincing sounding AI called about my games console insurance from Argos. Claimed to be domestic & general. Very sketchy, ignore and report!

D&G Household Appliance insurance. They offer a great service but the sales calls for more opportunities are relentless! Latest call from this number will be because I've cancelled my DD on all my policies - because they were too IDLE to cancel one that I had asked them to (different department, apparently). It's a pity, as my experience of their actual service has been very good, but the sales team don't know when to quit!

Caller said they were from Domestic & General about a Direct Debit. I asked them what they were wearing and they hung up.

I never answered but a very short voicemail was left by Stephen claiming to be from domestic in general which seems to be a fake version of domestic & general quick Google revealed that the number is associated with scams and I’d have to agree.
