4 yearsThey claimed it was my provider, O2, but I don’t even use them. Definitely a scam.4 yearsThey first claimed to be from O2, then switched to saying they were from Telefonica and attempted to sell me a phone. I ended the call because it felt dodgy to me.O2Telefonica4 yearsAnnoying telemarketer!4 yearsGot a call from this place for the second time. Picked up the first one but then the line just cut off. Didn’t bother answering the second time.4 yearsThis was a scam. The caller said they had discounted phones from Currys Mobile.

Have now blocked the number.Cheltenham4 yearsdefinitely feels like a dodgy scam to me.4 yearsHow come this sketchy number is still ringing people? Over 5,800 folks have checked it out, and there are just about 40 bad reviews since last Autumn. Total time-waster for all of us. Shouldn't someone do something about it?4 yearsGot a call from someone who said "Curry's Mobile" or summat similar, but their strong South Asian accent made it hard to catch - not really what I'd expect from a UK telemarketer, especially from such an obscure 01242 number! Feels dodgy to me, as they kept on even though I’m pretty sure I didn’t sound like easy prey. If it was legit "Curry's Mobile," I’d expect them to respect the Telephone Preference Service rules.UK01242Telephone Preference Service4 yearssaid it was from "currys mobile" or something like that.Curry5 yearsReceived a call from a number I couldn't identify.5 yearsGot a dodgy call claiming to be from Currys or Carphone Warehouse.CurrysCarphone Warehouse5 yearsCalled from Curry’s Mobile.

Claiming to be "Jack" from Carphone Warehouse, they opened the conversation. Strangely, they didn’t even address me by my name; it was just a generic “Hello ma'am, how are you this fine day?” Since I’ve had no interactions with Carphone Warehouse whatsoever, I decided to hang up. I’ve got a strong feeling this isn’t really Carphone Warehouse at all, but rather one of those dodgy scams.JackCarphone Warehouse5 yearsDidn’t catch a single thing he was saying. Ended the call and blocked the number.5 yearsLost interest and just ended the call.5 yearsTotally feels like a con to me.5 yearsThe number was unfamiliar, so I chose not to pick up. I’m going to block it now.5 yearsInitially, I was met with nothing but silence, followed by a distinct click and the hum of some call centre commotion in the backdrop. Then, an Asian gentleman came on the line, greeting me with, "Hello Madam, this is Jack from Carphone Warehouse. How's your day going?" I promptly informed him that I had no interest and hung up, seeing as I've never had any interaction with Carphone Warehouse. To be honest, I'm rather dubious that this call was genuinely from them!MadamJackCarphone Warehouse5 yearsIt seems that Carphone Warehouse decided to cut the call as soon as I mentioned I’m only 14 and not quite old enough for a contract. Quite rude if you ask me!Carphone Warehouse5 yearsI received a call from this number earlier, but I couldn't pick up since I was already on the line with someone else. It’s reassuring to discover it was likely a dodgy call.5 yearsSuspicious phone call, the location showed up as "Cheltenham", but seemed fishy or hidden somehow.Cheltenham5 yearsSome bloke from "car phone warehouse" hung up straight away when I asked where he got my number from. Pretty dodgy if you ask me.Car Phone Warehouse5 yearsNo one picked up, the number is listed as Cheltenham.Cheltenham5 yearsCalled by some phone shop claiming to be from Three offering half price on phones. Definitely a con.Three5 yearsI had a call from someone claiming to be from Virgin Media.Virgin Media5 yearsI got a call from a bloke with a heavy accent claiming he was from Carphone Warehouse. He tried to get me to switch my contract without any early termination charges, said my number was already on their list. He didn’t know my name though, kept asking what phone I had and how much my bill was. When I refused to give out any details and told him to take me off their list, he just ended the call.Carphone Warehouse5 yearsNo answer on the other end, just silence then they cut me off straight away.5 yearsReceived a call purporting to be from Carphone Warehouse. When I requested to chat with a supervisor, they claimed he was tied up in a meeting and assured me they'd take me off their list. This has all the hallmarks of a scam-steer clear, I say!Carphone Warehouse5 yearsCarphone Warehouse? Nope, that’s totally a scam.Car Phone Warehouse5 yearsGot a call from this number about an hour back. A lady with an Indian accent said she was ringing from Carphone Warehouse, offering massive 50% off on the newest Samsung and Apple mobiles. Bit fishy. She never used my name and I don't recall buying anything from Carphone Warehouse in years. I'd steer clear of it, seems dodgy to me.Carphone WarehouseSamsungApple5 yearsNoese was dead silent then this person with an overseas accent just kept saying hello over and over.5 yearsJust ignore it, best not to pick up.5 years01242 306019 rang me, said they were from Carphone Warehouse, but when I told them I wasn’t interested they pretty much told me to get lost... waste of time!Carphone Warehouse5 yearsOnce again, I've received a call from someone with a thick accent that makes it nearly impossible to decipher what they're on about. It's just another pushy sales attempt, and I find it absolutely infuriating!

They never leave a voicemail either. I've ended up blocking their number now.5 yearsThey rang me and hung up as soon as I picked up. When I tried calling back, it went straight to a recorded message for "Caspian Care Marketing" but I couldn’t find anything about them online. The message asked for an email to stop the calls at [email protected] - which is obviously dodgy since no proper firm uses a gmail account. After being on hold for about a minute, the call just got dropped from their side. Definitely a scam or phishing attempt.Caspian Care Marketing5 yearsGot a quick missed call but the phone flagged it as a likely scam.5 yearsSomeone said they were from Carphone Warehouse but just hung up before I could say anything. Seems like a dodgy scam to me.Carphone Warehouse5 yearsVirgin Media calling me nonstop, bit of a nightmare really.Virgin Media5 yearsI received a call from someone whose voice was unusually high-pitched, almost as if they were pinching their nose while trying to put on a funny accent-quite comical, really. They were rambling on at breakneck speed about Car Phone Warehouse, which piqued my curiosity a tad. When I mentioned I didn’t own a car, they doubled down and hurriedly asked, “How about a mate with one?” It was utterly ludicrous! At that point, I decided to just hang up. Initially, I thought it might’ve been one of my pals playing a prank on me, given how over-the-top the whole thing sounded.Car Phone Warehouse5 yearsI've just had a call as well, and it seemed to be from a call centre in India. They were purporting to be from Car Phone Warehouse, trying to pitch some sort of promotional deal…IndiaCar Phone Warehouse5 yearsHad a rather dubious phone call purporting to be from Carphone Warehouse, touting an upgrade opportunity. When I enquired whether there was a number I could ring back on after clarifying my existing contract, they refused to provide one. Quite fishy, if you ask me!Carphone Warehouse5 yearsHad a rather peculiar phone call earlier from what appeared to be a call centre. The voice on the line cheerfully exclaimed, "Hello, my darling!" to which I cheekily replied, "Good evening, dearest! It's been ages since we last spoke; what a lovely surprise!" They then inquired, "How are you feeling?" I shot back with, "I’m feeling rather riled up. Pray tell, who’s on the line?" There was a rather awkward silence before they finally uttered, "It’s your father here." And just like that, the line went dead.5 yearstotal spam! got a voicemail with some rubbish about credit something or other. proper annoying. they’re blocked from now on!5 yearsI heard loads of chatter and some rude stuff in the background before they just cut the call.Submit Your Own Report (01242 306019)
