Expert Opinion
Block the number if you’re tired of unexpected calls. AO.com often follows up purchase confirmations with scripted insurance offers that provide little value and can quickly become a nuisance. Under data protection rules, you have the right to request that the company stop contacting you for marketing purposes and to ask that your personal data not be shared with third‑party warranty providers. Keep a log of call timestamps, report persistent silent calls to your carrier, and consider adding the number to your phone’s do‑not‑call list. Regularly review your online checkout settings to opt‑out of post‑order sales calls.

Everytime a purchse is made from AO, numerous unwanted calls are recieved. Within a single day, 8 calls were made from this and another associated number, resulting in the decision to block the number. In contrast, a recent purchse from Currys did not result in any harrassing calls, perhaps AO should reconsider their approach as it is antagonising customers!
This number claims to be AO, attempting to confirm a delivery, but then tries to sell insurance. I informed her I was at work and couldn’t talk. She insisted it would only take a moment to log into my online banking. I declined politely, and she became extremely annoyed, likely due to being on commission.
