Sky Insurance (Other) reported by Anon
Unsure if it was a scam, the man new my last name and asked about my devices. Was talking about free packages with the broadband. Told me I could go to a website which could save my login details when I’m outside of my home to connect easily as a hotspot- thought that was odd? But maybe just because I’m weary of things like this.

Third Party Insurance from Sky (Telemarketer) reported by Matt
A third party cold caller trying to sell insurance/benefits for a Sky Product that I have recently purchased. Sounded like he was making the call whilst on the underground, he sounded less interested in the products than I was. Ended call when advised him I wasn’t confirming any details with him.

Fed up (Telemarketer) reported by Karlos
These people have been trying to contact me pretty much every day so I blocked their number, but seem unable to do anything about them leave silent voicemails. This is becoming borderline harassment.

Sky protect through domestic and general (Telemarketer) reported by Carson maiden
The woman was very friendly and clear spoken she explained everything and why she was calling she wasn't pushy and didn't ask intrusive questions she informed me that I could have 3 months free cover on my devices as a new customer which sky didn't tell me about plus I've got cover at £8.99 instead of £9.99 a month. Got a email confirmation this morning. So all in all worth picking the phone up.

Really rude man claiming to call from sky. Really rude. (Telemarketer) reported by Lol2345
I told them I wasn’t interested (claimed to be Sky). He said not interested in what? I said I don’t want to purchase sky protect and he got rather annoyed and said oh I would never try to sell you anything and laughed and mimicked me as I refused. Extremely rude and unprofessional. If you try to ring back it’s from Domestic & General, so not even Sky in the first place.

Missed call from 08005979843 (Survey) reported by Anna
Had a missed call from 08005979843. I heard my phone ring but only about 4 times. Did a Web search for tel and it just came up with several sites like this one saying its a scam. I think if it was a genuine company surely their own website would cone up when searching for their number?
