01163182382 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01163182382 👆 is reported as a persistent source of scam calls, mostly impersonating Sky or O2 representatives offering fake discounts, warranties, or maintenance contracts. Callers often use high-pressure tactics, demanding immediate payments by card and refusing verification, sometimes targeting vulnerable individuals with fraud attempts. Attempts to confirm or dispute claims often lead to abrupt hang-ups. Many users confirm no genuine connection to Sky or other providers, and calls typically feature foreign accents or cold-call patterns from a call centre environment. Recipients are advised to hang up immediately, avoid sharing personal or banking details, and report suspicious activity to official fraud authorities. Blocking the number is consistently recommended to prevent continued nuisance.

Someone rang me claiming to be from o2, saying they had a 40% discount to offer. They hadn’t asked me to confirm my info, but somehow they already knew my email and the last three numbers of other phone lines linked to my account. I’m not sure if it’s legit or not, so I just ended the call. I’ll get in touch with o2 myself to check what’s going on.

I received a ring concerning a car crash I was involved in, as my insurance provider had requested. However, the information they shared with me was all wrong in relation to the incident. Frustrated, I decided to end the call.

The caller didn’t show up on BT Call Guardian, so I’m guessing it’s either a scam or some sort of call centre. I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number already.

I just had a rather dodgy phone call from this number, purporting to be Sky TV. They insisted that my monthly subscription for equipment warranty was being axed and demanded an upfront payment of £100 for an annual fee. However, after a quick chat with the real Sky customer service, they confirmed it was all a load of nonsense. Just a heads-up, this is definitely a scam and shouldn't be taken lightly!

Got called a couple times in a row by someone saying they were from Sky Protect, trying to get me to pay up for a contract renewal on my Sky gear. They kept pressing hard, so I asked for proof they were actually Sky. The bloke only pushed harder after that! Definitely a scam - I don’t have any contract with them at all.

Somebody rang claiming to be from Sky Protect saying my coverage was good till October. The bloke had a strong foreign accent and was really pushy, which made me quite wary. I wanted to get off the call to speak to my daughter but he wouldn’t let me hang up. He kept insisting the deal, which was £189 in total, was only valid for one day and I’d have to pay by card straight away or else my policy would be cancelled and I’d be charged £89. Honestly, it felt really shady and stressful.

Got a call from 01163182382, turns out it was one of those auto dialers pushing through to a call centre. The person on the other end spoke with a foreign accent. Since our number’s on restricted, it just came off like a dodgy cold call, so we blocked it straight away.

some bloke named Kevin rang me up with a heavy asian accent, asking why i hadn’t got back to them about a letter regarding my sky insurance for tyre breakdown cover. he said the deal was ending today and tried to get me to renew over the phone to save £21 on fees. sounded like one of those dodgy scam calls just after my info. obviously, i didn’t bother replying.

Got a call from 01163 182 382 on 5th April 2021 just after 3.45pm. The phone showed it as an international caller but it was actually coming from a landline in Leicester. This was the fourth annoying call i'd gotten today alone. I've blocked over 40 numbers in the last couple of weeks but they just keep coming back. Honestly, it's so frustrating and I don't know what else to do. Feel proper fed up and stuck with it all.

I received a call from an Indian lady insisting that I was subscribed to some sort of equipment breakdown cover that apparently required an update - which I can categorically say I’m not! 😉 I promptly informed her that I believed she was trying to pull a fast one and that I’d be disconnecting and reaching out to Sky directly. She sounded rather keen to wrap up the conversation!

I received a call earlier from a woman who insisted she was with some sort of sky maintenance service, talking about a cover of mine that's apparently nearing its expiration. The odd part? She didn't even use my name-just blandly wished me a good morning! It’s clearly a scam aimed at getting you to cough up cash for something you probably don’t even own. Best to just hang up and save yourself the hassle.

I received a call from my elderly mother, and the number displayed was 02045771770. At first, the caller introduced himself as 'Harry', but then switched to claiming he was John de Silva. They were peddling Sky insurance cover and wouldn't allow her to speak with me. Instead, they pressured her to provide a security code that had been sent via text by the bank to authorise a payment. It appeared they already had all her card details, including the security code, which is utterly alarming. She was intimidated into handing over £180. Thankfully, the fraud team at her bank has taken over the situation and have kindly refunded the money. Luckily, the status of the transaction was still ‘pending’, so these unscrupulous individuals managed to get nothing in the end. Disturbingly, they attempted to reach her twice again today!
