2 yearsI’ve been getting calls for ages from someone claiming my SIM card was going to be blocked, but they’d send me a replacement. Never happened though, so I told them to just block it if they wanted. Right when I said that, they hung up on me. Total scam, as far as I’m concerned.2 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with O2, but I told them I don’t even have an O2 account. Right after that, they just ended the call. Definitely feels like a scam, so I’ve blocked the number now.2 yearsI got a couple of texts that looked like they were from O2, trying to trick me into giving them access to my phone. Dodged that one!2 yearsI had a weird call earlier from someone saying they were from O2, telling me they’d be disabling my SIM and sending a new one over for free the next day. It didn’t feel right at all, so I rang O2 directly to check and sure enough, it was just a scam.2 yearsSome bloke called saying they'd stop my plan since they were apparently upgrading my card or whatever. I just said I'd pop into a shop myself, and he started getting all grumpy haha. Definitely an o2 scammer trying it on.2 yearsDespués de unos cuantos saludos y preguntarme cómo estaba, me colgó sin más.2 yearsGot a call at 12:47 from 0116 318 3826, some bloke with an Indian accent said he was with 02. I cut him off straight away, told him I’m well aware of these scam calls pretending to be from that company. Told him to quit ringing me and hung up. Then I blocked the number. Definitely a scam!2 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be from India trying to scam me, so I just blocked the number straight away.2 yearsI kept my phone on silent and didnt pick up, but honestly I kinda wish I had.

Typical!2 yearsGot a dodgy call from 01163184180, so I've gone ahead and blocked the number along with another one linked to it. Total scam!2 yearsGot a call late in the evening, around 9, supposedly from O2. The guy, with an Indian accent, told me my SIM card wouldn’t work in my phone anymore and said he’d post a new one to me. I didn’t entertain him for a second and hung up right away.

Pretty clear this was a scam.2 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were from O2 and needed to swap out my SIM card. Thing is, I’m with EE, not O2, so I told them they were scammers.
