Reports on phone number 01278545363
8 yearsA woman rang saying she was from Call Protect and claimed I’d joined up back in 2016. I told her I never signed anything or agreed to any deal. She then said I’d have to pay £45 if I wanted to stop their service. When I tried calling the number back, it just didn’t come up as a valid number.8 yearsI received a phone call from a lady who had a distinct English accent, claiming that I had an outstanding balance for a call-blocking service that I never subscribed to. She mentioned that if I didn’t settle this supposed debt, it would be handed over to a third-party collections agency. Quite perplexing, if you ask me!8 yearsMy elderly mum, who’s 82, has been harassed by this number. Earlier today, she received a call threatening that if she didn’t settle a fee of £149.99 via debit card, they would send bailiffs to her door. Thankfully, she hung up on them.8 yearsSo today, on the 16th February 2018, at about 11:40 am, I got a call from a woman claiming to be from some phone blocking company. She said we had to update our service and even mentioned our password. We told her we don’t have any account with them and just ended the call. Later, I looked up the number online and saw loads of others saying it’s a scam. Watch out for this one!8 yearsGot a call from a very polite lady earlier who claimed I’d agreed to a 3 year deal and that she wanted to move me onto another plan. My husband picked up and told her I wasn’t home and she needed to talk to me personally. We’re pretty sure it was a scam though. The worrying bit is she actually mentioned a password I use for some accounts, which really freaks me out because I have no idea how she got hold of that.8 yearsGot a call earlier from a nicely spoken lady claiming i’d agreed to a 3 year deal and was being moved to another tariff. My husband picked up and told her i wasn’t home and she had to talk to me directly. We both knew straight away it was dodgy. The weird bit was she actually mentioned my password i use for some accounts, which really freaked me out - no idea how she got hold of that.8 yearsShe rang up claiming I’d signed up for their call blocking, but when I said I’m actually with a telephone protection service, she just ended the call straight away.9 yearsI've seen a few people mention similar stuff, and with me it was pretty much the same. A polite lady rang me up pushing this "call protect" service, asking for my bank info like it was no big deal. Definitely felt like a scam to me.9 yearsI received a call from a very articulate lady with a traditional English accent, who was asking for my bank details in order to provide a discount on a contract I’m certain I don’t have.9 yearsI got a call from some woman claiming to be from a call blocking service. She was trying to sell me a 50% discount for the third year of a 5-year contract or something like that. I told her straight up I don’t pay for phone blocking stuff, and then she just ended the call on me. Pretty rude if you ask me.9 yearsThis bloke claimed he was doing me a favour, saying my “account” was about to be billed later that day and he’d sort me out with half price. I told him I’d never even signed up with them, but he kept pushing, saying I had. Then he started asking for my bank info, which I refused to give. He got proper annoyed, so that’s when I just hung up on him.9 yearsI’ve gone ahead and blocked that number now.9 yearsGot a call from some number saying they were from [#][#]tpsonline[####][###}(ps/index.html wanting me to renew my contract. I asked why am I supposed to pay for something that’s meant to be free and requested their name and company address. Weirdly enough, they just hung up. Proper scam artists if you ask me.9 yearsNever heard of this firm before. They claimed I was halfway through a 5-year contract that blocks foreign scam calls. Apparently, they blocked about 30 calls just that morning. They offered to halve my annual charge from £98 to £49 as some kind of goodwill deal for sticking with them. The guy on the phone was really rude when I refused to hand over my bank details. I ended up hanging up on him. When I tried calling back, a recorded message said that the number 01278545363 isn’t valid.9 yearsI just received a dodgy call from someone asking for my bank information. Total scammer!9 yearsI got a call from some people trying to make me pay for blocking phone calls, but I have no clue who they were. Plus, they even had my address and password completely wrong. Weird experience.9 yearsThe individual requested our bank card details.Submit Your Own Report (01278 545363)
