Got two calls from these guys, first one was early, saying they were with EE from 02045389716. Later on, they rang again but this time claimed they were from Currys PC World. Both times they kept pushing me to do some kind of upgrade. Pretty suspicious if you ask me.

I have a strong feeling that this caller is up to no good! They purported to be ringing about my O2 plan, but the thing is, I don’t even have an O2 account. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!

Received a call that purported to be from EE, trying to persuade me to take an upgrade for the iPhone 14 at £55 per month. 'What do you reckon?' they asked. I replied, 'That’s a bit steep, isn’t it?' Then they fired back with, 'What’s your budget then?' I’ve since blocked the number. Absolutely not EE, that’s for sure.

I had a really hard time figuring out what this guy was saying. He said he was from Carphone Warehouse or something, but when I asked him to repeat himself, he suddenly started being rude and told me to "go back to my country." It was quite shocking and really unpleasant to deal with.

I never pick up calls from numbers I don’t know. If it’s really important they can just leave a voicemail, but it’s funny how they never do that! I always come here first to see if someone else has mentioned the number before deciding to block it or not. If you’re looking up dodgy numbers, please drop a comment too - it’s a big help for everyone!

Received a call from overseas today. The caller claimed to represent The Phonehouse Company and wanted to discuss matters related to my mobile. Upon requesting them to verify their company name, since I'm on the Telephone Preference Service list and shouldn’t receive such calls, the woman on the line told me I was wasting her time and just disconnected! I’d definitely advise caution if you’re thinking of sharing any personal information with them.

I too had the misfortune of receiving a call from this number, and I'm convinced it's a scam. It seems rather peculiar that so many people received these calls simultaneously on the same day. Just to clarify, I’m an actual human providing my assessment of the number in question.

I had a rather frustrating experience when someone rang me, claiming to be from Virgin Media. However, when I pointed out that I wasn't a customer of theirs, they immediately pressed me for information on which provider I’m actually with. It was absolutely absurd!

I called the number back and was greeted by a robotic voice speaking in English. It prompted me to choose from three different options. Curiously enough, the options were delivered in an American accent. I chose to remain silent, despite its persistent requests for a reply. Eventually, the line went quiet.
