01212725077 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01212725077 👆 is reported as a persistent scam number impersonating O2 or EE, often offering unrealistically large discounts on phone bills to lure targets. Callers typically use foreign accents and may possess some personal information, pressuring recipients to verify accounts via text codes, which enables unauthorised access. Reports include multiple calls, sometimes followed by aggressive or rude behaviour if declined, and suspicious text messages requesting verification codes. Many users advise not to engage, to block the caller, and to report it to official channels like 7726 or Action Fraud. Genuine providers do not offer such discounts unsolicited or request verification codes via texts, so vigilance is essential to avoid falling victim to this prevalent and sophisticated scam.
Reports on phone number 01212725077
3 yearsGot a call from someone called Mark claiming to be from O2, saying they were giving me a discount because of bad signal where I live (which is true). I hung up on him, but then he rang back straight away! Then he started asking why I ended the call! I’ve decided to block the number now.Mark3 yearsSome bloke called me, said he was Mark from O2, trying to give me some discount cause my phone signal here is rubbish (which is true). I hung up on him and then he rings back again! He actually asks me why I ended the call! I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number now.Mark3 yearsSomeone called pretending to be from EE, asking for my upgrade info. I am due an upgrade soon, but the account isn’t in my name, it’s my partner’s. So I asked who they were speaking with, cos usually EE won’t do anything without my partner’s permission. The caller said they couldn’t tell me because of UK laws protecting against fraud. I told them there’s no such law under GDPR about that, and that customers can ask companies to verify who they’re talking to. When I said I wouldn’t give any details until they confirmed the account holder, they just hung up.EEUK3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be O2, saying they could cut my bills by 40%. Total scam, obviously.3 yearsDidn’t pick up as I didn’t recognise the number, but after reading the reviews, I’m gonna block it now!3 yearsIt showed up as possible spam on my phone so I just ended the call straight away.3 yearsGot a call from some scammers talking with Asian accents, claiming to be from O2 and offering a 40% discount. They asked if I was an O2 customer, so I said no. I actually have other accounts for my home phone, personal line, work, and one phone I use just for deal sites.Asia3 yearsTotal scam, best to ignore.3 yearsCalled from 02 and asked me what phone I was using. I told them if they really worked for 02, they’d already know. They hung up - total spam.3 yearsI ignored the call at first and couldn’t call back later, so I decided to search it up here instead.3 yearsTOTAL SCAM ALERT. Got a call from a woman with an Indian accent claiming she was from EE, offering a massive 40% off. I already get a 9% discount from EE, so this sounded way too good to be true. No company hands out deals like that without strings attached. I politely said no thanks. Then she started pushing, saying I “really must accept the discount.” I said no again and ended the call. Definitely fishy behaviour.FRAUD ALERTEE3 yearsrang me two times and kept askin why I wasn’t pickin up. I’ve blocked the number now.3 yearsGot a call earlier claiming to be from O2, offering me a 40% reduction on my bill. I just got a discount not long ago, so it seemed odd they’d offer another so quickly. My son got a similar call a few days back too, but I’m not sure what number they used to ring him. When I asked why they were giving out another discount so soon, they just cut the call.3 yearsTotal rubbish, just spam.3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from O2, telling me I could get 40% off my phone bills.3 yearsI’ve had quite a few annoying calls from this number, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked it now.3 yearsThey rang me, I picked up but no one spoke. After a few seconds, they just ended the call. Very weird.3 yearsSomeone claiming to be from O2 called, saying his name was Mark, but with that accent, I’m sure that’s not his real name.Mark3 yearsSounds like a scam to me, they rang but didn’t even leave a voicemail or nothing.3 yearsThis was definitely a fake call. I rang O2 myself and the person on the phone already had my email and even the last bill figure. They kept asking for my bank info and details about my O2 account. Problem is, O2’s call centre is in India and they didn’t seem to get what was going on. I just got bounced around all over the place. Aren't there any English people looking for work? We've got over 2 million out of work!India3 yearsIt's rather curious to see so many comments lamenting the thick Indian accent of the caller, suggesting a lack of comprehension. I too received a call from this number, and while the individual did indeed have an Indian accent and the area code was linked to Birmingham, it's worth noting that many locals can struggle to understand the pronounced accents of certain Pakistani callers, which can sometimes be just as challenging for the average British ear. I even rang O2 directly, and to my astonishment, the English was even less intelligible than that of the so-called scammer! It leads me to ponder why British companies persist in outsourcing to call centres overseas. With over two million folks currently searching for work here, and while a fraction may have disabilities, a significant number could readily tackle customer service roles and communicate effectively. Surely, it makes more sense to keep jobs local?Birmingham3 yearsDefinitely a dodgy number.3 yearsPhew! I was fortunate enough to be catching some Z’s with my phone nestled under my pillow when this number rang me-not once, but twice! A woman kept chirping “hello, hello,” but I chose not to respond. It slipped my mind until later in the evening when I thought to ring it back. Each time, it kept notifying me that I’d dialled an incorrect number. So, I did a bit of sleuthing online to see if it belonged to some company. Turns out, I discovered quite a bit about scam calls. Cheers for that! 👍3 yearsIf it’s a number I’m not familiar with, I just don’t pick up. They didn’t even bother leaving a voicemail, so obviously they’ve got no real intention of talking. Sounds like a total scam to me.3 yearsGot a call a few minutes back from a guy with a foreign accent claiming he was from O2. I told him I’ve got nothing to do with O2 and he was pretty chill about it, then ended the call. I've since blocked the number.3 yearsSaid they were from O2, but I’m not even with them. Just ignore it, definitely a scam.3 yearsTotal scam. They said they were from O2 and offering a 40% off deal for a year. They told me they’d send text messages I need to respond to but said not to mention it to anyone else or contact O2 directly.3 yearsGot a dodgy call from someone claiming to be from O2. Total spam.3 yearsSome random number kept calling me at really bad times, and I have no one I know in Birmingham!Birmingham3 yearsGot calls from a number I don’t recognize, always when I’m busy. Don’t have any mates or contacts in Birmingham either!Birmingham3 yearsGot a call from a number I didn’t recognise, ringing at the worst time. I’ve no one in Birmingham, so no clue who it is!Birmingham3 yearsGot a call from a number I didn’t recognise, right when I was busy, and I’ve no clue who it could be - I don’t even know anyone living in Birmingham!Birmingham3 yearsSomebody called saying they were from 02 and could lower my bills. I told them I wasn’t bothered and then I just ended the call.3 yearsGot a text claiming to be from O2, turned out a scam. I ended up chatting with them for like 45 minutes just messing about.3 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with O2 about my phone plan... but I dont even have one with them.3 yearsI had no clue what they were on about and then they just told me to f**k off.3 yearsKept ringing non stop till i blocked the number.3 yearsGot a dodgy call pretending to be O2 saying there’s some special deal or discount. They then send you a text and want you to share it, but that’s just how they try to get into your account. Don’t give them any details, just block the number straight away!3 yearsGot a dodgy call on 02/08/23, they were trying to sell something and wanted my bank info?3 yearsI've been getting a lot of calls from the number 01212725072 lately.3 yearsI've been bombarded with scam calls daily for the past week. I've finally had to block the number. These annoying calls only started coming through after my Virgin account switched over to O2.Virgin3 yearsGot another scam call, they really should find a proper job instead.3 yearsI found myself in Birmingham when I received a call from a number I knew was from that area. The person on the other end was a woman, but beyond that, I couldn't glean much more. It quickly became apparent that it might be a scam of some sort, so I probed repeatedly to ascertain her purpose. It seemed like we were both speaking in completely different tongues, as her grasp of English was rather questionable-if it could even be considered a language she had any familiarity with. I've since blocked the number.Birmingham3 yearsSomeone rang up pretending to be from Microsoft about my PC - didn’t even hang around to hear what they’d say.Microsoft3 yearsTotal con. They say they're 02 trying to give you a deal. Don't fall for it. Just block these idiots.3 yearsThey keep ringing saying they’re from 02 trying to lower my bills. Really wish they’d just stop. I get loads of these calls now, so I just block them straight away.3 yearsSomeone called claiming to be O2 offering 40% off, but they just ended the call when I told them I’m not with O2 lol3 yearsTotal rip off.3 yearsTotal scam. Woman had a heavy Indian accent, I swear she kept saying 'auto' but actually meant O2.3 yearsReceived two calls yesterday at 4:48 PM and 5:43 PM, and just had another one today at 11:45 AM. The caller didn't have a British accent; she inquired if I was well, addressing me as "mam." Mentioned she was phoning from some investment firm. I’ve always been with Virgin and have never encountered any issues, so this seems to be connected to O2.Virgin3 yearsTotal scam. I blocked the number straight away. They claimed they were from O2 and were trying to sell me a discount.3 yearsThey rang up saying they were from O2, but it was a fake.3 yearsHad really heavy Indian accent, started jabbering right away before I could even get phone to my ear so I missed the start. Was going on about some sort of discount or offer.3 yearsGot a call from this number claiming to be 02, they already had my email and sent me a code to confirm my account. I rang 02 myself and they said they don’t call customers or ask for any verification codes. Definitely a scam, best to avoid answering this number.3 yearsO2 scam alert! They’re claiming 40% off. Best to steer clear, it’s dodgy.3 yearsBeware of these con artists posing as representatives from O2! They even had the cheek to mess up my phone number when I called them out on the fact that I don't even hold an account with them. Best to avoid any conversation with these charlatans!3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be O2, trying to sell me some discount deals. When I said no, he started threatening to pass me on to his manager! Total scam.3 yearsTotal rip-off, no doubt about it.3 yearsGot a call from 01212725077, this lady with an Indian accent said her name was Sophie, which sounded totally made up with that accent. She said she was from o2 and wanted to offer me a 40% discount. She wanted to send me a text with a code for me to give back, but I wasn’t falling for it. I told her it’s a scam cos o2 wouldn’t do this kinda offer or call me like that. She got rude and told me to “stop wasting her f****** time.” Definitely a scam, so watch out if you get a call from this number.Sophie3 yearsTotal scam! Keep ringing non stop saying they’re from O2 and offering a huge discount for loyalty. I blocked them straight away.3 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were O2, they asked for a code that pops up when you try to change your password on the O2 site. After they get that, they take over your account and go buying phones. Definitely a scam to watch out for!3 yearsKept callin but no voicemail left, and since I don’t recognise the number, feels a bit dodgy.3 yearsSeems like this number’s part of some O2 scam. Best steer clear of it.3 yearsGot a dodgy call, they were acting like they were from my bank.3 yearsSome woman said she was from o2, had an Indian accent and called herself Sophie. It was a scam, she sent a text asking for a code. Watch out for this sort of call!Sophie3 yearsJust got a call from these lot a little while ago, some bloke with an Indian accent. He was trying to sell me 40% off some O2 thing, but he couldn’t make sense of what I was saying at all. After a few awkward silences, he just ended the call. Proper scam, stay clear!3 yearsWatch out for O2! Seriously, avoid returning their calls!3 yearsGot a call today from this number (31st July around 11:13am) saying they were calling from EE and could help me save 40% on my monthly bills. They said I needed to visit an EE shop in Manchester to get the discount, but then they just ended the call. Felt a bit dodgy and didn’t seem quite right.EEManchester3 yearsScam alert - got a call saying I could get an O2 discount but I’m not even an O2 customer.3 yearsThis number 01212725077 just rang me and some sketchy bloke said he was calling from O2. I recently switched from Virgin to O2 and he claimed my number was picked by their headquarters for a special discount. It all seemed fishy so I declined and ended the call. O2 later confirmed that any real offers would show up in their app, so I’m pretty sure this call was a scam.VirginO23 yearsHonestly, it’s not just this particular number but these calls have become so annoying and it feels like they’re happening every single day now. It seems like they’re getting way more frequent, and yet I never hear about any good ways to stop them or catch the people behind the scams. It’s really frustrating.3 yearsThis was definitely a scam.3 yearsThis dodgy caller keeps blowing up my landline and mobiles, wont leave me alone. Def one of their numbers.3 yearsBeware of a fraudulent operation masquerading as O2!3 yearsI received a trio of messages all at once, each stating, "You've missed a call from me," all thanks to a free call alert from O2. Later on in the day, I noticed a missed call from the number 0121 272 5077. Honestly, I've never encountered issues with my phone until Virgin switched me over to the rather inept O2!Virgin3 yearsI've no idea who they are.3 yearshaha standard O2 scam again.. you'd have thought by now they'd realise folks know it's a scam, must be loads of free time on their hands or something.3 yearsSomeone rang me claiming to be from O2 and said I could get 40% off. Their texts told me not to mention it to O2 staff, yet they kept insisting I did. They didn’t even know my name. Totally a scam.O23 yearsGot a dodgy call from someone saying they were from o2, total scam.3 yearsGot a load of calls from people claiming to be o2, blocked the number but they just ring right back from a different one.3 yearsGot a call but no caller ID showed up. They didnt bother to leave a message or voicemail either.3 yearsGot a call from these lot while I was away in Turkey, claiming to be from O2. I told them I was on holiday and couldn’t chat. Once I got back, they ring me again but I was already a bit wary, so I asked for some info they couldn’t really give me. I ended the call and looked them up here. They’re pretty persistent, rang me back 4 times over a few days. They sounded convincing enough, but the guy kept calling me 'dear', which is a bit off - actual customer service peeps don’t usually get that casual.Turkey3 yearsFell for this one earlier today. Thankfully, I caught on once the call had finished and managed to update my account information before anything bad happened. The scammers had all my info - name, address, email, monthly bill amount, even my security question answers. They were really persuasive. The texts urging me to change my account details came through just quickly enough to make me act without reading them carefully. Luckily, I checked the messages after the call and contacted O2 straight away to secure my account. Watch out, these scammers are getting cleverer!3 yearsI had a rather unsettling experience today, as I found myself on the receiving end of a call purporting to be from O2. Fortunately, it clicked with me after the call that something was amiss, and I promptly changed my account information before any harm was inflicted. The scammers had an alarming amount of my personal information - my full name, address, email address, my monthly billing amount, and even my security question! They really had me second-guessing myself. They escalated the urgency just enough with some texts about updating my account that I barely managed to absorb what was being conveyed. Thankfully, I took a moment to review those messages after our chat and contacted O2 posthaste to secure my account. Do stay vigilant! These con artists are becoming increasingly sophisticated!O23 yearsGot calls today twice from 0121 272 5077, on 24/07/23, saying I could get 40% off my O2 phone bill. They also sent me a couple of texts pretending they were security alerts from O2, with some 6 digit code to get a discount. I kept asking them how I could be sure they really worked for O2, but none of the three people I spoke to gave me a straight answer.3 yearsO2 scam call - I’ve blocked it straight away.3 yearsTotally useless, just another o2 scam call.3 yearsGot another call claiming to be from O2 with some discount offer - total scam for a phone contract!3 yearsIt's a dodgy call centre, for sure. They're trying to fish for two-factor authentication codes to illegally access mobile accounts, which could lead to unwanted transactions. Best to be wary of their calls!3 yearsClaimed to be from O2, but ended the call quickly. Ignored and got rid of their text.3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be o2, sounded dodgy so I just ended the call and blocked the number straight away.3 yearsThis number keeps ringing me non stop.3 yearsIt’s definitely a scam, and foolishly I called back since I was waiting on a call from Birmingham. When I rang the number back it said “you have dialled the wrong number.” Total scam, just block it.Birmingham3 yearsSomeone rang me and left a weird message with loud music playing in the background. I’ve blocked the number already!3 yearsThey kept saying the call was coming from my O2 network, but I’m not even an O2 customer so I just ended the call and blocked them straight away.3 yearsGot a call from an 02 number, someone offering a 40% discount for a year. They said they’d text me twice to confirm the account. I asked them to email me the details instead, but they insisted I had to verify the account first. The call supposedly came from Birmingham - can’t they just block these numbers nowadays with all the tech we have? Or am I just being too hopeful?Birmingham3 yearsBeware of scams! To help tackle these fraudsters, make sure you report and block any suspicious numbers. You can send details of scam calls via text to '7726'. The more people who report, the more likely your phone provider will flag the number across their network. For scam texts, forward them to '7726' but also email screenshots to '[email protected] for the rest of the UK.ScotlandUK3 yearsSo frustrating!3 yearsAnnoying telemarketer ringing in from a rather boisterous call centre.3 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with O2 and could give me a 30% discount on my bill, but when I asked who the call was actually for, they couldn’t say.
