01216478746 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01216478746 👆 is reported as a persistent, unsolicited scam targeting mobile users by impersonating O2 or Virgin Media representatives. Callers falsely claim users’ SIM cards will be deactivated within days and offer replacement SIMs, often requesting personal details or email verification. Many victims report robotic or hard-to-understand voices, suspicious accents, and repeated calls from different numbers even after blocking. Genuine providers like O2 confirm they do not make such calls. The scam aims to obtain sensitive information or access accounts, potentially leading to fraud. Recipients are strongly advised not to answer unknown calls claiming to be from mobile network providers, avoid sharing any personal data, and verify concerns directly through official company channels. Blocking and reporting these numbers is recommended to prevent further harassment.

2 yearsGot a call claiming to be from Virgin Media, but it seemed like one of those O2-related scams. Watch out!O2Virgin Media2 yearsThe call was all weird and glitchy. I couldn't catch a word the person was saying, sounded like they were using some kind of robot voice filter. Ended up hanging up straight away.2 yearsGot a call from 020824, but there was no response on the other end.

Total scam.Rubbish2 yearsReceived a dodgy call claiming to be from O2. Total scam!2 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be O2, but since I'm with O2, they usually just text me, never call. So the moment he said he was from O2, I was suspicous straight away. Plus, the guy had a strong South Asian accent which made me even more sure it was a scam. Honestly, just hang up if you get calls like this.2 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Indian accent warning my SIM card would be blocked in 2 days or something. She just hung up after that, and I never heard from them again.India2 yearsI reckon this might’ve been a dodgy scam call, quite risky from what I gathered.2 yearsAs soon as I picked up the phone, they just ended the call. Definitely not a real customer service person, just a bother. I quickly put the number on my block list.2 yearsSomebody called me, claiming my phone contract would get cancelled in a week.

I keep blocking the caller, but the same bloke keeps ringing me from various numbers saying the same thing to scare me. I just chuckle and say I’m not an O2 customer, then he claims my sim is tied to the "network" he can’t even name when I press him. Watch out folks, this is a total rip-off!2 yearsI've been receiving persistent calls from someone purporting to be from O2, insisting that they're dispatching a new SIM card.

Clearly, something fishy is going on!2 yearsGot a missed call showing up as ’O2’ on my phone, wasn’t sure if it was legit so I looked it up on this site.2 yearsI received a rather aggressive call from someone purporting to be from O2, insisting that my service would be terminated in a mere 48 hours unless I agreed to a new SIM card. They were quite insistent on getting me to open an email as well. I firmly told them that if I faced any interruption in my service, I'd reach out to O2 directly. No thank you! I'm fully aware of these sorts of scams doing the rounds.2 yearsReceived a dodgy call earlier today from some charlatan claiming that my SIM would be deactivated in a couple of days.

When I told the caller that, they just ended the call straight away!2 yearsEarlier today, I received a call warning me that my SIM card was about to be blocked in the next 48 hours.

Problem is, I’m not with either Virgin or O2! Told them they should find real work instead of trying to con people like this. Such a joke.Virgin2 yearsGot a call saying my sim was going to be shut off in a couple days and offered me a new one, claimed they were from Virgin/02. I just hung up and blocked the number.

Honestly, just block 'em or don't bother answering if they ring you.2 yearsThis number rang me claiming to be from O2 Virgin and said they wanted to sort out some problems with my network. Honestly, it was hard to understand what the guy was saying. When I told him I wasn’t with Virgin, he quickly switched up and said he deals with all providers.

He mentioned that the card would be blocked in the next two days or so. I pointed out that I don't actually use O2, so I figured it was a scam of some sort.

I just said “no” and promptly ended the call.Sam2 yearsGot a call from this number just a few minutes back. Some bloke said he was from O2, but I’m not even with O2 - bit suspicious right?
