Reports on phone number 01316599879
5 yearsGot a call from some bloke who asked if I was Tracey, sounded super uninterested like he couldn’t be bothered. I said I wasn’t interested and just ended the call. Don’t know who it was, but not exactly professional.Tracey7 yearsGot a call earlier today from some guy named Adam saying he was from Mobile Zone working with Vodaphone. I told them ages ago, like a month back, to stop calling me but here they are again. When I said I knew him from before, he acted like he had no clue who I was. Honestly, they just dont quit. If you hang up, they might even try to mask their number so you can't tell who it is. Best bet, just block the number right away.AdamMobile ZoneVodafone7 yearsIm deaf so its a bit tricky, but i looked up the number online and it turns out its blocked or something. Pretty weird really!7 yearsGot a call from an unfamiliar number but they didn’t leave a voicemail. After seeing what others have said about it, I’ve decided to block it.7 yearsGot a call on the landline about 8:25 this evening from someone named Jack claiming to be from Mobile Zone. He specifically asked for my missus by her first name, but since the phone account is under my name, it felt fishy right away. I just ended the call.JackMobile Zone7 yearsA number has phoned me loads of times but normally hangs up after just a couple rings (maybe some mass calling going on and someone else picks up by mistake). Tonight about 8:30pm I did answer and a woman with an accent I couldn't quite place said she was from Vodafone checking up on my service. She even knew my postcode, which was creepy. I barely caught half her words but hope they got the message I gave back before I ended the call!Vodafone7 yearsGot a call on 14th September around 8.16 in the evening, answered it but there was nothing on the other end, just silence. Honestly, it seems really inappropriate to ring so late, especially for someone like me who’s a pensioner living by themselves.7 yearsGot two rings from this number today, but I usually don’t pick up if I don't know the caller. Way too many spam calls these days, and they never bother to leave a message anyway.7 yearsThey rang our landline but hung up just before the voicemail kicked in. We don’t recognise the number at all.7 yearsI've had three calls from them and each time they were shouting abuse at me. This sort of thing really ought to be stopped.7 yearsThey’ve rang my landline 4 times now, and I’m honestly getting pretty annoyed with it.7 yearsI didn’t pick up when they called my landline, which is listed on a directory! Then I called 1471 to find out who it was. No idea how they managed to get my number though - pretty annoyed about it.7 yearsReceived a call from someone claiming to be from Mobile Zone, supposedly ringing for Vodafone. It was one of those telesales pitches. When I asked how they managed to get my number, the woman fibbed and said I’d filled out some form, giving my details. But she couldn’t say what form or where it was. I’m certain that’s a lie because there’s no way I’d willingly hand over my info linked to Vodafone.Mobile ZoneVodafone7 yearsI keep getting calls from 0131 numbers but they never bother to leave a voicemail. Because of that, I don’t pick up if it’s from that area code anymore. The last time they rang me was on the 3rd of September 2019 at about 9:54 in the morning.7 yearsI was trying to reach my 13 y.o daughter, but the person on the line refused to explain where they got my number or even my daughters name from. Really strange.7 yearsI got a call and as soon as I guessed it was likely a scam, I just hung up. Then, out of nowhere, they rang me back like 7 times in a row! Honestly, there was barely a pause between each call, like they were just smashing the redial button nonstop. Had to block them immediately.7 yearsKept ringing so I just blocked the number, wouldn’t bother picking up if I were you.7 yearsI keep getting calls daily from 0131 659 9879. I’ve blocked the number already, but they just keep trying! Really fed up with this now.7 yearsHonestly, I just ended up blocking the number. What a pain!7 yearsI never pick up calls from numbers I don’t recognise. After they kept ringing and didn’t leave a voicemail, I just ended up blocking them.7 yearsGot a call on my phone which I hardly ever use, only keep it for emergencies really, and nobody I know has this number. It was switched on just to top up the battery so I didn’t pick up. It rang through to voicemail but they left nothing. Really no clue how they even got the number.7 yearsRing me up then just cut the call right away. Definitely spam!7 yearsGot a call from 01316599879 claiming to be Vodafone, but they then started asking for all my bank card info. Definitely dodgy!Vodafone7 yearsThis number kept calling me loads of times, but they never left a voicemail or anything.7 yearsIm 71 and this is driving me crazy, it seriously needs to stop. I really dont want any more bother.7 yearsWatch out if this number rings you up - they pass your details over to marketing firms, which just means you get bombarded with even more spam calls. These days, it’s wise to be extra careful and not pick up if you don’t know who’s calling. Unfortunately, scammers keep coming up with new tricks as time goes on. At first, it might seem tricky to tell which calls are dodgy, but after a bit of practice, you get the hang of spotting them. Honestly, the simplest move is just to ignore unknown numbers altogether.7 yearsI got a call from 01316599879, and the moment I picked up, they just ended the call. Tried texting back to find out who they were but got nothing in reply. Just another number to add to the blacklist.7 yearsI got two calls on my phone from them, but I just didn’t pick up.7 yearsSomeone pretended to be from Vodafone but when I asked for details about my contract, they had nothing to say. So I just blocked them!Vodafone7 yearsGot a call from this number but they didn’t leave any voicemail. Cheers for the heads-up, saw a couple of other comments about it too. Caller: No idea who it was.7 yearsOver the last week, they’ve called me a dozen times. Just yesterday, I got six calls all close together, despite me telling them to stop bothering me. They claimed to be Vodafone but couldn’t answer any questions about my contract when I asked. Louise here.VodafoneCheersLouise7 yearsI’ve picked up this number a few times now, but nobody speaks when I do. Called me thrice already.7 yearsSomeone rang claiming to be from Vodafone, saying they had some new offers to tell me about. The caller said they were reaching out on behalf of Vodafone.Vodafone7 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be Vodafone. They wanted me to share my personal information. Nah, not falling for that one!Vodafone7 yearsThese telemarketers are such a nuisance, always calling at the worst times!7 yearsCalled, but nobody picked up.7 yearsI keep getting calls from this number saying they're Vodafone, but I’m not even a Vodafone customer. They ring me every single day.Vodafone7 yearsGot two calls from this number yesterday - some random telemarketer. Blocked it straight away.7 yearsI tried calling back, but no one picked up. Then I sent a message and it didn’t go through. Ended up having to block the number.7 yearsReceived a call about mobile deals, they said they were from Vodafone but seemed like typical cold call sales.Vodafone7 yearsThis evening at half past seven, I got a call from the number listed above. Unfortunately, I wasn't near my phone at the time, but judging by the absence of any voicemail-just like others have experienced-it seems to be yet another dodgy scam. I wouldn't say it's a genuine business; it could very well be someone masquerading as a legitimate entity, perhaps even someone renting a property or using a private number. Just my two pence, but it seems rather suspicious!7 yearsI tried calling that number back a few times, but it just stopped answering. Pretty sure it was another one of those annoying nuisance calls.7 yearsI looked them up but couldn’t find any name linked to that number.7 yearsTotally just junk calls.Submit Your Own Report (0131 659 9879)
