Fonehouse telephone deals
I have been receiving numerous calls since yesterday from a persistent salesperson saying they are from Fonehouse trying to sell a mobile with contract.
They are offering the latest mobiles (iPhone XS/XR, Galaxy 10) with a 24 month contract with any network for £20 per month! It also includes 6 months free accidental damage insurance. The salesperson also mentioned the 14-day right to return the phone.
The deal is not available on their website or any of the Fonehouse stores.
Is this genuine or likely to be a scam?

Was it a cold call or are you a customer?
And verbal assurances from a salesman on the phone are not worth the paper they are written on, to misquote Sam GoldwynNumerus non sum0 -
never respond to a cold call0

I wouldn't take out a contract with these guys based on a phone call, yes they could be genuine but dont feel pressured.
Have you googled the number to see if it is Fonehouse ?
If the calls are annoying you either tell them to stop or block the number or another option is to get a deal elsewhere.0
