Expert Opinion

Ever wondered why a simple appliance purchase triggers a barrage of follow‑up calls? Most reports point to AO.com using an after‑sales telemarketing team to pitch extended warranties or insurance shortly after delivery confirmation. These calls often feel persistent and can border on harassment, especially when no clear identification is given. To protect yourself, always verify the caller’s name and reference number on the official AO.com website, request an opt‑out if you’re not interested, and consider using call blocking features. Keep records of call times and content, and report repeated nuisance calls to your phone provider or the Information Commissioner's Office.

I purchased a washing machine from AO and received a call from this number the following day. The representative was overly aggressive in trying to sell me insurance. Despite my hesitation and request to discuss it with my husband, she persisted in asking for my sort code and account number, which made me suspicious. I ended the call. While the number appears legitimate, the sales tactics are quite forceful, so beware. Due to this experience, I decided to cancel my order.
