Call from Currys offering a warranty on a new washer/dryer! Can't be certain it is genuine as they can not provide any details that I can check. Warranties are not worth buying until after the manufacturer one runs out after 12months and all appliances are covered for at least 5 years anyway. It must be a SCAM. Never give details, information or bank details out.
