Welcome back team in India

Just been contacted by Welcome Back team in Mumbai. Deal seems ok but they wanted my direct debit bank details. Which I refused to give. Can anyone confirm they are the real deal and not a scam.

@AGC2  If you have left Sky then it is possible you were called by the Winback team, and to setup a new account they would need your direct debit details.

Like you I'm a customer here, Sky Employees are clearly identified as such.

How can I check if he call is genuinely from the Sky Winback team in India.

@pilgrim44 @AGC2 

Any number can be spoofed to appear to be from a particular company.

@AGC2 Genuine or not I would ask do I want or need to go back to Sky? If I did want to go back, I would be looking online.

 

Further, my modus operandi is that I do not agree cold calls contracts or deals from any company whether knocking at my front door, via telephone or being approached on the street.

Have I missed on fantastic deals?

 

Possibly,  but I don't care.

 

The last telephone cold call I received, the caller abruptly hung up when I declared  "...I have lots of money so not interested in saving it!"

100% and I'd include a (not) favourite of mine, supermarket pop-up stands. BT especially are very aggressive around here and the local Morrisons let them set up in a choke point as you're leaving. I've happily used the trolley to shift them out of the way and given I'm over 6 foot tall and don't smile back at them it works a treat 🙂 Every so often they come cold calling, "We're from BT/EE and we're not here to sell you anything, we're just doing a survey on how happy you are with your broadband?" I'd rather chat with the occasional Jehovah's witnesses.

 

Edit: just remembered I had a cold call possibly from Sky telling me they had a fantastic deal on Sky Glass just last week, I laughed out loud and told him I wouldn't touch it with a barge pole. Oddly they didn't call back. Sorry Sky if that was you.
