There was a pause for a bit, then they just cut the call. Totally sounded like a scam to me.

They keep calling saying they're with O2, but there's no way they actually are. Keeps happening over and over.

I'm fed up with all the scam calls I get all the time, it's really annoying. These days, telecom companies don't seem to do much to help, so the only thing I can do is keep blocking their numbers. But they just keep switching to new ones, so it feels pointless. Honestly, I can't stand how tech has made things worse instead of better.

Got a call claiming it was about my O2 account. When I asked if they really worked for O2, they said no, but wanted to offer me a cheaper plan instead. They were pretty insistent, which made me think it might be dodgy. Honestly, I don’t get why anyone would give personal info to someone they don’t know.

Yet another dodgy number from Birmingham has been flagged by our True Call system. My advice? Don’t bother answering, don’t ring back. Just whack it on the block list and keep an eye out for any other numbers that look suspiciously similar.

I missed the call, and no voicemail was left. Seems likely to be a scam, if you ask me.

I received a call from this number, and the person on the other end claimed to be from O2. They mentioned they had details about my sim-only plan and hinted at an upgrade. When I politely declined, they insisted on directing me to their "supervisor" for further discussion. After explaining that I was content with my existing contract, the so-called manager alarmingly insisted that I needed to update my direct debit details and switch it over to a different account. This raised a red flag, and I promptly ended the call. Later that day, I visited an O2 store to verify the legitimacy of the call. The staff confirmed it wasn't a call from them at all.

Got a call on silent mode from a TPS-listed number. Then, weirdly, I got a message from another number telling me to ring them back. Blocked the number straight away and reported it. Haven’t had one like that in ages!

I got a call from someone claiming to be from CMT offering O2 deals, but it felt so dodgy. The person on the line clearly had no idea about anything real and just seemed like they were trying to scam me for details. Definitely a con to watch out for.

Got a call from a Birmingham code I didn’t recogise, but they didn’t bother to leave any message. Strange!

Got a few calls from Central Telecom claiming they’re with o2 and trying to push a cheaper SIM deal. They keep asking me for my PAC code, which sounds fishy because the real o2 message clearly says they won't ever ask for it. Seriously, don’t hand over any personal or banking info!

My phone picked up this number automatically through the screening. After reading the reviews here, I decided to block and report it straight away.

I just got another call from that dodgy call centre in Birmingham. They say it's market research, but it's just a sneaky way to scam folks. Absolutely rubbish!

I’ve stopped picking up this number and a bunch of others like it - just blocked them all, honestly don’t want to deal with any of those calls anymore.

It’s rather peculiar; I can’t think of a single soul in my circle who would ring me at the ungodly hour of 4 in the morning without bothering to drop a message. When I tried to return the call, the number was seemingly out of service.

Is it just me or is calling someone after 6pm just plain rude? I can't stand it when people do that.
2 years
I didn’t manage to pick up the call, so I’m not sure who it was. But when I looked them up, they’d been searched like 29 times just in the past four hours, and the number’s still going up. Seems pretty sketchy if you ask me!
