Got a call from a woman whose English was quite hard to understand. I told her I’m on the no call list, then she just hung up. I ended up blocking the number after that.

I picked up this number around 8pm here in East Anglia and just stayed quiet. I could hear what sounded like a busy call centre and there was a bloke joking and laughing with his mates. I said nothing and after some time, he just put the phone down without saying a word to me.

Got a call from someone saying they're 02 support, but the number they used definitely isn't the one I usually ring for 02. Feels like a scam to me.

The moment I heard the person speaking with an Indian accent ask 'How are you today', I just ended the call. Pretty sure it was one of those scams.

Got a call from someone claiming to be from 02, saying that my phone number ending in **** was going to be blocked in a few hours. They said they were updating their system and asked for my personal info. I hung up straight away and blocked the number. Definitely a scam.

Those O2 scammers are so blatant and super irritating...

They keep ringing me every single day, and when I block one number, another one pops up. The calls always start with 0116 318 but the last four digits keep changing. This is getting so annoying.

My phone showed it was possibly spam, which was kinda funny since I’m actually with o2, so I just ignored the call.

Got a call from 0116 318 3155 this afternoon around 12:35. My phone flagged it as maybe spam, so I didn't pick up. I'm registered with TPS, so I don’t expect calls like this anyway. Have blocked the number now.

I've had four calls this week from different numbers, all saying they're from O2. Totally a scam, they keep switching the numbers each day.

Some bloke claimed he was with O2. I told him to quit ringing me because I get about three or four calls each day. He said they couldn't stop calling, so I just ended the call.

I got a call from someone saying they were with O2 and that they’d be sending me a SIM card along with a discount on my phone bill. It just felt dodgy to me, so I cut the call short before they could try getting any of my details.

They tried to trick me into handing over my google info by saying i needed to upgrade from 4g to 5g with o2 and that theyd send a new sim card. Then they asked for my google email to “confirm” stuff and looked to reset my password, making it seem like I had to approve it on my device. Honestly, quite clever how they set it up.

Got a call on my landline from Leicester, number 01163183155. They said they were from O2 and claimed there was an issue with my account - saying they would block my SIM and send a new one. The voice sounded quite legit but when I asked some security questions, they got them wrong. Also, they didn’t behave like any genuine O2 rep I’ve ever dealt with. I let the calls ring out after the first few times. Definitely a scam.

These scams wouldn’t be so common if they didn’t actually fool people. If you get a dodgy call, text 7726 to report it. They’ll ask you to give the details again to make sure they got it right. For more help, have a look at the Action Fraud site, especially their page about phishing, where you can learn how to report all sorts of scams - calls, texts, emails and stuff. Nothing will change if no one bothers to report these scams.

Got a call on Saturday from someone saying they were from 02 about replacing my SIM card, and I had a feeling it was one of those scams.

I got a call from this number claiming to be O2, saying they had a free SIM upgrade for me. Seemed dodgy since they kept asking for personal details O2 would already have. I just ended the call straight away.

Just like a few stories I’ve seen here. They said my sim would get blocked because O2 had loads of complaints about bad signal. When the first guy got all confused reading from his script, he brought on his “senior supervisor” who was actually quite courteous. He wanted my address to send a new SIM, said it’d come sometime between 10 and 5 tomorrow. I told him to just use the one already on my account, then suddenly he cut me off. Proper cheeky behaviour!

Got a call supposedly from O2, but we don't even have them as our provider. The person spoke really bad English and was hard to follow. As soon as I suspected it was a scam, I just ended the call.

Got a call from someone with a strong accent saying my SIM might get blocked. They had no clue which network I use. Their English was really bad, so I just told them to leave me alone.

Got a call from someone claiming they were from 02 saying they’d be cancelling my SIM and posting out a replacement. It sounded dodgy to me. When I tried to get a phone number to ring them back, they just kept pushing for my email and personal info. Definitely a scam, no doubt about it.

The lady on the phone had a super thick Chinese accent, and I could barely catch what she was saying. Something about my SIM being cut off the next day and them sending me a replacement SIM. I wasn’t clear on the rest, so I just hung up. They kept ringing me back a few times after that.
