Reports on phone number 01202879315
8 yearsI rang the police and gave them a full report, then got in touch with Action Fraud. They told me not to send any money and gave me a crime reference number. The police said to block the number straight away because it’s a proper scam. What’s worse, they tried to get cash pretending it was for my mum, who passed away 5 years ago. It’s disgusting.Action Fraud8 yearsGot a call from this company claiming I owe nearly £150 for call blocking over two years. I said I never even had call blocking set up, but the guy kept insisting I did. Then he said he’d pass me onto their admin team! I asked if he gets a kick out of pestering pensioners like me. Anyway, I’ve gone ahead and blocked their number now.8 yearsA company called my 87-year-old grandma, trying to charge her for some call barring service she never signed up for. She was so confused and didn't even know what they were on about. Really feels like a scam to me.8 yearsFor the last week, these annoying scammers have been pestering my grandparents non-stop. When I tried calling them back on my mobile, no luck, so I gave them a bell on the landline instead. I made it clear they shouldn't bother ringing anymore since I've already spoken to the solicitor, bank, and fraud team. They're still insisting they’re owed £149.99, so I just told them nicely to jog on.8 yearsMy elderly folks have been getting repeated calls from this firm, asking for their bank info about a supposedly overdue bill. They even threatened court action if they didn’t pay up, which is ridiculous because they’ve supposedly had a call blocking service for ages now. I ended up having to get power of attorney for their finances because of dodgy companies like this. I’m gonna report them through the police fraud site.8 yearsI’ve just reported this company’s dodgy business to PoliceFraud site. I’d suggest everyone else do the same to build up proof of their shady and unlawful activities. They had loads of my personal info, including my bank card’s security code, so I had no choice but to cancel the card.PoliceFraud9 yearsMy mum, who’s 81, got a call claiming she owed £169 for some call barring service from a couple of years back. The person on the phone insisted she had to pay right away or they’d take the money straight from her card, even gave her the start of the card number. They threatened to add interest too. Mum asked for their info and said she’d have me, her daughter, contact them after checking things online. They wouldn’t let me speak to them though. Luckily, my mum is sharp and saw through the whole lot. Looks like a total scam, we just hung up.9 yearsMy 83 year old mum got a call from this number claiming she owes a last payment of £149. They said they tried to charge her card but it was declined - which is complete rubbish cos the card works fine. Now they’re saying they’ll withdraw it along with extra fees! How’s that possible if the card info they’ve got is supposedly wrong? Let them give it a go, i swear i’ll give them a run for their money!9 yearsWhen this scammer called my elderly Mum, who’s 86, I was the one to pick up. He kept going on about some huge debt she supposedly had. Lucky me for answering! I wasn’t about to let him off easy - I gave him a right telling off, he didn’t know what hit him!Mum9 yearsMy mum’s been getting constant calls from this company, claiming she’s agreed to some contract and owes them cash. Whenever she won’t give her info, they start threatening her. Proper nasty lot.9 yearsFor the past couple of years, this number has been ringing my mum-in-law nonstop, about some call barring service she supposedly needs to pay for. They keep demanding her bank card info to take money. It's been ringing her like 2 or 3 times daily. We told BT about it and they’ve now blocked the number.BT9 yearsI've been getting calls from a company saying my late husband signed up with them to handle unwanted calls. They claim they've been doing this for like two years and now want me to pay. The voicemails sound a bit different each time but basically say the same thing. Who really works for two years and then suddenly demands money? Seems like a total scam to me.9 yearsI got a call saying an 81 year old woman supposedly owes £140 for the last couple of years. They said she needs to pay up today for some call barring service. It sounded odd to me.9 yearsStay well clear of that call blocking service. Absolute ripoff and they just keep pestering you non-stop. Total waste of time!Submit Your Own Report (01202 879315)
