Phone number ☎️ 01164890013 👆 is reported as a number linked to aggressive and persistent calls claiming to be from Currys or Carphone Warehouse offering Vodafone contract upgrades. Some users report receiving convincing personal information but warn it may be outdated or incorrect.

Managed to upgrade my plan after a quick call. Really happy with how smoothly it went!

Got a call from someone claiming to be Vodafone, said my contract had ended and offered an upgrade. I asked if they could email me the details, then checked my actual contract and realised it’s not due to finish until the 28th of July. Seems like they were pushing me to buy a new phone with them. Honestly, I find it annoying when you say no and they keep pushing like that without being asked.

I said nicely I wasn't interested, but then he rang me straight back from a different number. After that, he kept ringing me nonstop, like 6 times back to back with no pause. He even got pretty rude and pushy on the phone. These lot are just annoying pests.

This one was totally dodgy. He rang me and at first it seemed kinda believable, but as he went on it became clear it was a scam. He even mentioned stuff from an old deal I had. I just said he must be mistaken and that I’ve already upgraded everything.

I actually got a legit service here, my phone arrived fine and they emailed me pretty quickly. They didn’t even ask for any payment info. Don’t really get why there’s so many bad reviews before, seems alright to me.

Had a call on my mobile from Currys using the number +441182160019. They wanted me to confirm my email and went over details about my contract ending in March 2025. They told me about some new handset offers and monthly fees. We agreed I’d ring back Thursday evening after looking into it. Spent about half an hour on that call! Then, they rang again but this time from another number: +441164890013.

I got my Vodafone contract through Carphone Warehouse and it’s time for me to renew. They’re actually the ones ringing you up if you bought through them since they hold all your contract info. So yeah, the call is definitely legit, no doubt about it!

It’s not a scam, actually. I got a call from the Carphone Warehouse sales team trying to sell me something. I rang Carphone Warehouse myself because I was a bit worried, and they verified everything was genuine, even going over the details I’d given about my new contract.

Dodgy lot. Some bloke on the phone was proper rude, got all annoyed when I asked to speak with his manager. Kept ringing me non-stop after I ended the call - just couldn’t accept a simple no. First time the number showed as from “Glasgow”, but then rang twice from “Leicester”. The guy defo didn’t like being accused of scamming.

I keep getting calls from different phone numbers over the past few days claiming to be from Carphone Warehouse, saying I’m due a free upgrade. So, I rang up Carphone Warehouse themselves to check, and they told me none of those numbers are theirs. Definitely a scam, not the real Carphone Warehouse at all.

Some bloke said he was from Currys and told me my Vodaphone contract ends today, that they could sort me a better deal. I told him I never got my contract via Currys, and then he just said thanks and he’d update their records before hanging up. If he was genuine, why didn’t he actually offer me a deal? Total scam if you ask me.

Got a call from someone claiming to be from Carphone Warehouse. They wouldn’t take no for an answer and kept pushing me, got a bit fed up when I said I’d look into the number first. They kept saying everything was genuine and even wanted me to ring them back on that suspicious number. Sadly, I didn't spot it was a scam until it was too late. Ended up giving my date of birth, and the woman said her name was Vanessa.

Totally a scam! They already had loads of my info, and I stupidly told them my date of birth and where I live. They kept pushing me to upgrade my phone, so I just played along and said fine.

Got a call from someone claiming to be with Carphone Warehouse offering a phone upgrade. I checked with the actual Carphone Warehouse shop nearby and they said the contract details didn’t match theirs at all. They also told me they don’t call customers to offer new contracts like that, so it was probably a scam. They suggested I report the incident to Action Fraud.

I bought my phone through e2Save, which is linked to Currys, but they advised me not to reply to the call. So, no clue if it was genuine, but I’m just going to block the number anyway.
