Phone number ☎️ 01478300023 👆 is reported as a persistent scam number frequently impersonating reputable companies like O2, Virgin Media, Currys, and Carphone Warehouse.

Totally a scam, just hang up straight away.

They keep ringing me but then just hang up, probably hoping I’ll ring them back. Don’t bother calling them back though, it’s definitely a scam.

I got a call claiming to be from O2 saying they could knock 40% off my bill, but I was sure it was dodgy. Definitely sounded like a scam to me.

They keep ringing claiming to be O2 and say they need your bank info for some credit stuff. It’s dodgy, probably scammers. They use loads of numbers, switching between Welsh, Scottish and London area codes. Watch out!

Keeps phoning me repeatedly, but often it rings just once or twice before it hangs up abruptly. Quite peculiar behaviour, really!

Received a call purporting to be from Virgin Media, offering to let me retain my current phone and number for just £8 a month. I had to tell him where to shove it-absolutely ridiculous!
Virgin Media

Someone rang me saying they were from O2, but I wasn’t convinced and just ended the call. After searching the number online, it turns out loads of folks say the same number is pretending to be different companies. Best thing is to not trust it and just get in touch with your actual provider yourself if you’re worried.

On the 19th of June, I made three comments here that go into detail about how to block these scam calls. There’s about 15 comments below that one explaining step by step what everyone should do. If all the people in the UK who get bombarded with these scam calls and texts each day actually took these steps, we'd make a real dent in this nonsense. Don’t just expect someone else to sort it out. It only takes a few minutes. I’ve bookmarked the Action Fraud site and have also shot an email to my MP. It won’t work if only a few of us act.

Got a call from a Chinese lady who spoke super quick, I could hardly catch what she was saying apart from her trying to push some phone deal on me. Felt like a scam to me.

I got a call from someone trying to push a phone contract on me. I told them I wasn’t interested, but they just wouldn’t take no for an answer. When I finally asked why they were being so pushy, they just ended the call. Proper scammy behaviour.

Got a call from someone pretending to be Curry's but the guy had a strong Indian accent and his name definitely didn’t sound Indian at all. When I told him there's no way I’m sharing my details, he just said thanks for wasting his time (lol!!!) I honestly didn’t mind one bit!

Got a call from someone saying they was from Currys PC World, offering a mobile at a bargain price or summat. Sounds a bit dodgy to me. When I asked a few questions, they just ended the call straight away. Definitely feels like one of those scam calls.

I signed up for some free software and then got a call from this number. The guy, Ian, was really pushy about getting me to put money down. When he saw I wasn’t interested, he started being rude and insulting me right at the end. Not a nice experience at all.
