Reports on phone number 01353780018
4 years01353780018 Called from NHS regarding flu jab booking at North Devon GP, 26th October 2022.NHSNorth Devon5 yearsI've received two calls on my home phone today, the 11th of October, 2021. Each time, they left a muddled message on my answering machine, which I couldn't make heads or tails of.5 yearsGot a recorded message telling me to "verify if this is you" and to press 1 for yes or 2 for no. I just ended the call.5 yearsToday, we've been pestered on two occasions by someone who seems to know my wife's name and the details of her upcoming surgery. It's rather shocking that this number hasn’t been looked into yet!6 yearsThis isnt a scam at all. Its actually a legit number used by loads of doctors surgeries. Like, alot of people who can get the flu jab will get a call from this number letting them know and giving them their GPs phone to ring up and book in.6 yearsDont just ignore these calls, they are the robots from your doctors or hospital and stuff. If you want more info check out [#][#]grovemcfelixstowe.nhs[###]/. Just scroll down till you find the "Did you know" bit and look for the paragraph with the 01353 780018 number.6 yearsThese dodgy calls are such a pain, really think someone should do something about them already.6 yearsNo idea what that call was about, sounded like a recorded message but they said my name and asked me to enter my birthday in digits, which felt a bit odd and worrying. Call then just dropped. Number looks like it’s from ELY. Wasn’t waiting for any calls today. Probably just one of those annoying robo calls. I wouldn’t share any personal info though, just to be on the safe side.Ely6 yearsReceived a call from 01353 780018 asking to confirm an appointment for someone I dont know. They wanted me to press 1 if it was me and 2 if it wasnt. They said it was from a local doctors office, but the number didnt match the surgery I know. Feels like a scam to me. I just ended the call like I usually do with these strange calls.7 yearsI've been inundated with numerous robotic calls on Saturday evenings, urging me to choose between options 1 or 2. Strangely, they had my doctor's surgery details, my name, and my contact number. They claimed to be representing the surgery, which, quite conveniently, is never operational on a Saturday!7 yearsGot a call from this number [email protected] around 7:10pm. It’s really annoying since I can’t rush to answer the phone after my heart surgery (I’m 81). Someone really needs to put an end to these annoying calls!7 yearsI kept getting calls and messages on my voicemail telling me to press 1 or 2, so I finally picked up and pressed 1. Then they asked for my birth year and said my flu jab was ready, advising me to ring my GP to book it. I’m guessing it’s legit, though I haven’t called the surgery yet.7 yearsGot a call telling me to press 1 if it’s me and 2 if not, happened a few times now. Didn’t pick up, seems like suss scam to me.7 yearsReceived yet another bothersome automated telephone call.7 yearsGot a call from this number claiming they were updating info for my GP surgery. After I ended the call, I phoned the surgery reception and they didn’t know the number. I also tried NHS customer services and they said it wasn’t familiar. Then I spoke to the surgery’s practice manager, she checked her records, phoned the number herself from her desk, and confirmed it was a legit call from a company called JMOG who handle updates for GP surgeries. She even showed me the call record on her system.NHSJMOG7 yearsSounds like a classic scam call trying to get my details for a fake NHS appointment at my local surgery. I phoned up the surgery to check if it was legit. The receptionist had never heard of that number. She said she’d look into it and called me back soon after, saying the call was actually real. Seems like a bit of a clumsy mix-up from the NHS side.NHS7 yearsLooking through the feedback on this number - calls from 01353 (Ely area) 780018 are back again. I got two calls today (10/07/19) around 10:00 and 13:00 - an automated female voice said "Please confirm this is you - press 1 for Yes, 2 for No". Ignored it and just hung up. It seems to be a legit number as I tried calling it back - it rang but cut off as soon as someone answered. If this is some NHS scam, it really needs to be stopped - it's just a pain at best!ElyNHS7 yearsI've been receiving calls from this number quite frequently, sometimes even twice a day, and it's starting to get rather bothersome. The calls are automated, and they prompt me to press 1 to verify my identity. Occasionally, a woman's voice comes on and addresses me by name, which is quite unsettling.8 years01353780018 keeps ringing me daily. I dont pick up since I dont know who it is, they say they have left a message but theres nothing there. Also got a call with some womans voice recorded telling me to press 1 if it was me or 2 for something else, so I just turned my phone off. Got another call today 12/12/18 at 12.45pm, still no message. How do I make these calls stop? I thought these kind of calls were illegal now. Number is 01353780018, landline.8 yearsI got a call from this number a couple of times today (12/12/18), it left weird messages. I’m labelling it as Con 4 in my contacts now, since my blocked list is completely full.8 yearsDon’t know who this is, but they’ve been ringing me up to four times a day, from dawn till late evening. I can’t imagine the NHS would phone at such odd hours. Plus, if the NHS can’t reach you after a few tries, they usually leave a quick message asking Mr xxxx to ring the surgery or hospital back. This seems like just another lot of scammers trying to get your cash. I’ve just blocked the number.8 yearsI’m waiting for my GP surgery on the NHS to get in touch about rebooking my flu jab for over 65s, as I don’t have a mobile phone. I won’t be picking up though, since I got scammed before by what I think was a spoofed number, and I’m not risking it again. It might actually be a legitimate message, but the NHS should really use a different way to notify people. I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number.NHS8 yearsGot a call from this bot thing called MJog - can barely call it a service really. If they’re trying to remind me about some NHS appointment, they’re going about it all wrong. Who’d trust a robot to handle their personal stuff? “Press 1 for yes, 2 for no”, and then it just hangs up! Proper rubbish.NHS8 yearsHonestly, no clue who they were. I hit the button to pick up, then quickly ended the call. I've added the number to my blocked list now, and while I was doing that, I got a message from BT saying it's a fake number. From what I’ve heard, the best thing to do is report these to the ICO (which I always do) and if enough people complain, they might actually do something about it.BTICO8 yearsThis morning, on the 25th of August, a Saturday, I received a rather odd call from the number 01353780018 at precisely 09:21. The voice on the line was pre-recorded and distinctly female, repeating that it was "busy" and prompting me to select an option: one for yes, or two for no. Curiously, when I pressed either button, all it did was redirect me to my voicemail, indicating I had a message, but alas, there was nothing there. I've no idea who’s behind this or what the inquiry could possibly be!8 yearsAfter reading through the comments, I reckon I might have an idea. I've been getting loads of calls ever since I searched online for medical equipment like stairlifts and walking sticks. Maybe some company is tracking that kind of thing?8 yearsThis number rings me almost every weekend, like 3 or 4 times on both Saturday and Sunday. I've asked them politely, and sometimes not so politely, to stop calling me. Why can't BT or Ofcom step in and sort out these people? It's really getting on my nerves.BTOfcom8 yearsThey ring me loads every weekend. I always look up the number first before picking up. It’s clearly spam, so why doesn’t oftel sort these annoying gits out?Oftel8 yearsWedmore? Something about a Gnash tie-up? They wanted my pin which was just my birth year. When i punched in my yob, they said it wasnt right. When I called back a message told me to get in touch with my health care folks. They said they might ring again! No way to reach them to block this pest. FIX THESE BLOODY SCAMS!WedmoreGnash9 yearsthey just kept going on about some weird thing with vertical pipes, totally gibberish.9 yearsI've been receiving those nuisance calls too! Whatever you do, don't press any digits as that might connect you to an expensive line. Just hang up straightaway, and then give 14258 a ring to block the number.9 yearsThey ring me a couple times each day but i just ignore it since i didnt share my number with anyone.9 yearsThey just rang my number to check something, but I didn’t pick up.9 yearsIs there any chance that BT could shed some light on the legal standing or possible scams associated with this number? A comment from BT or even someone from the fraud team would be greatly appreciated.BT9 yearsI've had four calls from this number today.9 yearsAn endless series of beeping tones and prompts... “Press 1 or 2 to verify your identity” or something along those lines. I opted to simply hang up rather than engage.9 yearsThis number rang me two times today. Had a recorded voice saying they're from Age Scotland. Just hung up straight away!!Scotland9 yearsI received three phone calls from this number earlier today, with the most recent one coming in at 8 PM. The caller just wanted to know if I was on the line, which is reminiscent of those pesky calls from India or other con artists. If this is indeed some so-called NHS automated service for my local clinic, then colour me sceptical! I wouldn't trust this one if I were you; it feels like a cringeworthy error.IndiaNHS9 yearsI was curious if I had received a call from "vertical bar, vertical bar, and so forth, and was hoping for a quick confirmation. The call terminated abruptly, so I called 1471 to check. After that, I did a bit of digging and, lo and behold, it turned out to be yet another automated service...9 yearsJust like the others, I keep getting calls where they tell me to press 1 to confirm, press 2 for more info, and so on. No clue who they’re even supposed to be.9 yearsGot 5 calls today just like this one, all wanting me to verify my identity. My neighbour's been getting the same calls, she reckons it's from the doctors but their surgery is closed today.9 yearsFor the last couple of weeks I've been getting calls almost daily, like 3 to 5 times a day. They always leave a message asking me to confirm my identity or something about a barcode, which I have no clue about. I don’t recognise the number and I haven’t answered any of their calls. It’s really starting to get on my nerves!9 yearsI just let it ring out.9 yearsthey called me a few times, kept asking me to say who i was, then just dropped the call. sounded like some american dude leaving a message, definitely felt like a scam to me.9 yearsReceived a call from this number this evening. I believe BT ought to deal with it.BT9 yearsThey rang me thrice with the same robotic message, then just dropped the call every time.9 yearsThey really need to start charging folks for making these annoying unwanted calls.9 yearsThey wanted me to verify my identity, but I didn't. They asked again, said something about pressing 1 to confirm. Confirm what exactly? Who are you even? Whose call is this meant to be? After that, I got the 1471 number and then found this site.9 yearsI received a rather bothersome call from this number. It turned out to be an automated message from Bradley Stoke Surgery, prompting me to confirm my husband’s name by pressing 1 for yes or 2 for no. I found it quite irritating and decided not to engage, so I just hung up after picking it up.Bradley Stoke Surgery9 yearsHad a right bother with this number, they rang me three times today spouting nonsense and urging me to press some buttons - not a chance!9 yearsReceived an infuriating call from this number, rambling utter nonsense. Is there any way to put an end to this? I didn’t pick up, but it managed to leave some twaddle on my voicemail.9 yearsHad this happen to me earlier, absolutely hilarious!! Same old story, press #1 or #2 like usual, but then this bloke kept saying I was “vertical barba at vertical barba” (like about ten times!) - no clue what that even means?? Looks like their database for that Ely company was totally messed up. I just hit #2 NO to get off their list quick. Guess the local NHS will have to send me letters the old-fashioned way now!! What a bunch of muppets running the show, can’t do their jobs properly.ElyNHS9 yearsI've had a couple of calls from this number today, the 14th of August, 2017. I'm curious about the source and the nature of these calls. We’re situated in Devon, yet it appears this is occurring in various areas. Is there a way to put an end to this?Devon9 yearsGot a message on my voicemail that said: "Press 1 if this is your number or 2 if it's not." Seriously, how am I supposed to figure that one out? Am I me or am I not me?9 yearsI keep receiving phone calls from this number, and the caller keeps mentioning my surname, asking me to press 1 if it's really me or 2 if it isn't. It's happened twice already today! I'm quite puzzled about what they are after. Honestly, I'm not at all interested in whatever they're selling. Also, just to clarify, I don't have any appointments whatsoever! What's the deal with these incessant calls?9 yearsThey ought to be locked up for the rest of their days.10 yearsThe person calling never says who they are and leaves a really unclear message. They claim to be from the NHS, but honestly, they need to sort this out properly.NHS10 yearsAlthough it's certainly beneficial to give folks a nudge about their upcoming appointments, I must say, the method employed here is rather awkward. “Kindly confirm your identity by pressing 1 for Yes and 2 for No.” That's what the caller apparently communicated. Honestly, it's all rather baffling, and I’m inclined to consider these calls as mere pests. I won’t be engaging with them at all.10 yearsIs anyone else receiving pesky calls that appear to be from the NHS? It's rather bewildering, isn't it? One has to wonder, are the folks in charge over there still in their right minds?NHS10 yearsWhat’s the best way to put an end to calls from this number? I'm fed up with their persistent ringing!10 yearsIf the NHS is behind this, what on earth was the thought process of the individual who set it up? It's utterly preposterous!NHS10 yearsSomething seems a bit off here.10 yearsThis number is absolutely infuriating! I've got relatives battling cancer down in the south, and I'm eagerly awaiting a call from them. It’s so frustrating to constantly be interrupted by this nonsense when I'm just trying to stay connected with my family.10 yearsWe decided to let the call go unanswered.10 yearsNothing more than plain harassment, honestly.10 yearsI've been getting calls from this number daily for the last fortnight. Quite fed up with it, I've lodged a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office. Fingers crossed they'll take action against these pesky calls!Information Commissioner10 yearsThis number rang me three times in just one day. I really can’t see how it’s connected to the NHS since it’s showing up from Ely and I’m down here in Devon! If it’s some automated NHS call like someone mentioned, why would it be for me? No idea, but it’s pretty annoying. Luckily, I’ve got a phone with call blocking, best purchase I’ve made for sure.NHSElyDevon10 yearsWe've had this number ring us twice today, which is quite odd. Definitely needs to be blocked!10 yearsGot three calls from the same number in under a day. Luckily, I've got call blocker so none of them actually reached me. Definitely sounded like a robocall.10 yearsNot sure what that was about, they said to press 1 if yes and 2 if no, but I didn't press either.11 yearsThis is a NHS call, usually about appointments or reminders, or checking on your health. It's totally safe but honestly, it's organised really badly.NHS11 yearsGot a legit call from our local hospital’s health service asking to verify who I am. When I pressed 1, it told me to confirm an appointment I’d already been sent details about through the mail.11 yearsDespite not being from around here, this number is indeed legitimate and belongs to the local health service. They’re calling to verify your identity when you hit 1. It’s related to confirming the specifics of your upcoming hospital appointment, which you should have received a letter about in the post.11 yearsThis isn't a healthcare service at all; it's merely a dodgy operation peddling rose-hip extract. What a complete farce!11 yearsWell, this is rather frustrating, isn’t it? At about 5:40 PM today, I received a call, but since I’ve got my voicemail set up to filter calls, all I could hear was, "Please verify your identity by pressing 1 for Yes or 2 for No." Honestly, with so many of us using call screening nowadays, that approach makes the whole call pointless. The initial part of the message simply won’t get through! If it's a genuine caller, they really ought to sort out their methods, don't you think?11 yearsOver the weekend, that number has been buzzing with calls for our daughter, who has a hospital appointment today. We’ve touched base with both our GP and health visitors, and they’ve confirmed it’s a scam. It’s baffling how these chancers are getting hold of this information. We’ll be investigating how they’re doing it!11 yearsReceived a call from 01353780018 just now. We’re currently on standby for our hospital appointment and thought it might be someone notifying us of a cancellation. We’re actually on the waiting list. I’m quite curious about how they managed to get hold of our number.11 yearsIndeed, I got a call from this number, but they didn’t mention who they were at the start, so I thought it was just another scam. However, after going through the comments here, I decided to ring up my doctor’s surgery, and they clarified it was regarding an appointment for a flu vaccine. Quite frustrating really, as it seems this service is more trouble than it’s worth!11 yearsi answered the phone and a voice said “there’s been a major problem” then just hung up. when i called them back, they said i should contact my health insurance. this is seriously creepy.11 yearsI've discovered that this number is utilised by GP practices, including my own, for sending automated notifications to patients regarding their flu vaccination appointments. That's the reason they have your contact details. I've confirmed its legitimacy with my local GP, and rest assured, it’s definitely not a scam. The caller's request for you to verify your identity is simply a matter of safeguarding your privacy.GP11 yearsI’ve just had a call from this number, and it was rather peculiar. When I picked up, there was an awkward pause before someone asked me to verify 'if this is indeed you' and press 1. However, they didn’t bother to clarify who they were looking for, which left me a bit baffled. So, I decided to hang up instead of playing the guessing game.11 yearsReceived a bothersome call prompting me to hit '1'.11 yearsI've lost count of the times I've been contacted by the number in question. It’s always the same old routine, a recorded voice reminding me about a hospital appointment and instructing me to press 1 to confirm I've received the call. Each time, I’ve hung up without responding. Honestly, it’s becoming a daily nuisance!11 yearsI received a call just this evening from a woman who provided me with the wrong details for an appointment reminder, stating it was for 7 o'clock. I promptly hung up the phone without hesitation.11 yearsI've been getting these automated calls from people claiming to represent our medical practice. Absolutely not; we promptly hang up!12 yearsI received a call from the above number around 18:45 on Friday, 2nd January 2014, to my home phone in the North Nottinghamshire region. When I picked up, there was just silence; no one spoke and I couldn't even hear anything in the background. Quite peculiar!North Nottinghamshire12 yearsThey keep calling, yet whenever I answer, there's nothing but silence on the other end.12 yearsI received a call prompting me to verify my name by pressing either 1 or 2. However, I've got a hospital appointment coming up, so I chose to ignore it after looking it up on this site.12 yearsThe no-shows for appointments are causing the NHS to lose over £600 million annually. If you're receiving calls from this number, it's almost certainly a courtesy reminder regarding a hospital appointment. Many GP surgeries utilise this service as well, sending out invitations for yearly check-ups and vaccinations, all aimed at safeguarding and enhancing patient health. Interestingly, those who engage with this call are about 50% more likely to actually attend their appointments.NHS13 yearsThis number seems to be linked to your nearby doctor’s surgery, typically ringing to prompt you about scheduling an appointment or to remind you of one you've already made. If you don't press 1 to verify your identity, the system won't convey its message. So, be ready to interact if you receive a call!13 yearsI've been receiving calls from this number every night this week, usually between 6 and 7 o'clock. It's not just the odd one, either; I've had multiple calls each evening. The voicemail is rather strange-it's got this automated message asking me to verify my identity. It says something like, 'If this is you, press 1 for yes, and 2 for no.' It's quite frustrating! Can anyone tell me who’s behind this? I’d really like to lodge a complaint and put an end to these annoying calls, please.Submit Your Own Report (01353 780018)
