Thanks for the comments everyone. I had a call from this number this morning. Didn’t answer i, assumed it was a scam. Just checked as I am home again. Number blocked, call deleted. Would be great if people would stop doing this, just causes extra anxiety and stress.

Several calls from "domestic and general" regarding revision to my appliance cover at reduced cost. It is only necessary for me to confirm my personal details for the revised plan to be activated. Several calls, text and voicemail required me to turn off my phone

Came up as telemarketing scam, answered, wouldn't say who they were. After putting down phone, they phoned 5 more times, final call, I screamed very loudly, they've not phoned again and I've now blocked this number.
