Possibly a call from Sterling Insurance—they gave me a quote last night.
Sterling Insurance Follow-Up: Legit or Scam?
Summary — +441279940513
Expert Opinion
Reports on calls from this number reveal a split between legitimate follow-ups and potential fraud attempts. Predominantly, contacts link to Sterling Insurance brokers responding to online car insurance quotes, often via comparison sites like GoCompare. Users who initiated quotes confirm helpful interactions, though prices may exceed expectations. However, a subset describes unsolicited harassment, non-stop calls, or suspicious additions to policies, hinting at spoofing by scammers. Ghost brokers pose real risks, peddling fake policies that leave drivers uninsured. Always verify brokers via the British Insurance Brokers' Association website before engaging. If unprompted, hang up and report to Action Fraud. Block the number if calls persist, and never share personal details over the phone.

An advertisement from Sterling car insurance claimed cheaper rates for older drivers, yet they quoted me more than £200 over my already high renewal. I never asked for a callback after an online quote – a complete waste of time.
After getting a quote from Sterling Car Insurance last night, I can confirm it wasn't a scam.

Scam
Much appreciated, cheers.
The provider is Sterling Insurance; after speaking with them about a car cover quote, the service proved authentic, though you shouldn’t anticipate a cheap rate.
This isn’t a scam; an insurance broker phoned after I generated quotes on GoCompare for car cover.

Exercise caution; there’s a flood of phantom brokers peddling non‑existent motor cover. Sophisticated crooks now masquerade as advisors, pushing bogus life policies. Stick to brokers who belong to the British Insurance Brokers Association – you can verify local members on their website. Beware that scammers may post counterfeit safe‑report listings about numbers here, so stay vigilant. Remember, fraudsters can easily spoof legitimate numbers.

Harassment Call
I was bombarded with calls non‑stop after requesting a 2025 Dacia Jogger insurance quote. No answer came since I didn’t opt‑in for any calls, mate.
It appears to be a scam; I began receiving constant calls after requesting a car insurance quote.
They claimed to be from Stirling Insurance, attempting to add an unfamiliar driver to a policy I don't even hold; they somehow knew my first name, which is puzzling.
Potential scam
Beware: Fraud/Scam!!!! Targeting elderly folks, seriously.
