01480879716 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01480879716 👆 is reported as a persistent NHS COVID-19 vaccine scam involving fraudulent calls seeking personal information, including vaccination status and insurance details. Callers often use spoofed or fake UK numbers, sometimes with foreign accents, and employ aggressive or rude tactics when challenged. Blocking numbers offers limited relief, as scammers use multiple numbers. Victims are advised to never provide personal details and to report all scam calls and texts directly to official police channels such as Action Fraud, not just blocking or reporting to shortcodes. Proactive community reporting helps authorities track and combat these scams. Genuine NHS communications will not ask for personal or insurance information by phone. Staying vigilant and sharing experiences with others supports wider protection efforts against these fraudulent schemes.

4 yearsLoads of people have shared tips on here about how to deal with these scam calls, but the problem is most just ignore them, so these fraudsters carry on with their rubbish. They’re well aware of this and it makes their jobs easier. Check out the posts below for advice. They’re basically living off us, sponging off our old and vulnerable folks. It’s a shame, but a lot of us Brits just don’t take enough care, and that’s why these scammers keep coming at us.4 yearsYeah, we really enjoy it, but like we mentioned, it’s buyer beware. No one else has the same sharp business sense as us.4 yearsWe snatched up your covid cash and honestly, it was brilliant. True to our name, we pinch what we want. Enjoying every penny, and guess what? No one’s gonna stop us!4 yearsI think you meant coronavirus, right? That thing’s really messed up everything lately.4 yearsHas anyone actually taken steps against these scam calls? Loads of info on how to handle them has been shared here, just wondering if people are bothering to use it.4 yearsI once worked at that company, and now it’s gone proper viral. Next thing you know, we’ll be on Love Island and owning a villa in Marbella!Love IslandMarbella4 yearsGot a call about the NHS vaccine booster today. Just wanted to check if it was legit before I book anything. Anyone else get the same call?NHS4 yearsIf you really wanna put a stop to these scam calls, check out a few comments from a bit earlier, like maybe 18 or so below this one and spilling into the last page. They explain the right steps to take. The key thing is to report them to the police like they suggest here. Sending your complaint to 7726 doesn’t actually get the police involved. And honestly, blocking the numbers won’t help much ‘cause those scammers just ring you up from a different number anyway.4 yearsTotal scam. I have had my Covid jab and got my covid certificate, so this call was definitely dodgy.Covid4 yearsThey took my money and seemed really pleased about it! I guess they'll be ringing back soon to get all the other info 😉4 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be NHS, asking me to verify my name and postcode. They then started questioning me about whether I’d been vaccinated or not. Bit suspicious if you ask me.NHS4 yearsThis was just another spam call. I replied with a text to 7726 - which spells out 'spam' on a phone keypad - saying: “call 01480879716“ Doing this reports it to Ofcom, the phone companies, and even the police.Ofcom4 yearsThis guy kept insisting he was from the NHS COVID vaccine team but then suddenly started asking about insurance and life coverage. When I asked which company he worked for, he stuck to saying NHS, even when I pressed him about it being "on behalf" of them. Then he told me someone else would ring me the next day - I told him that wasn’t necessary, but he insisted they would definitely call again. Pretty obvious scam to me, just harassing people and trying to fish for info about insurance linked to vaccine risks. Feels like they’re targeting vulnerable folks.NHSCOVID4 yearsI used to be part of that group, and now it’s proper famous. What’s next, Love Island and a villa in Marbs?!Love Island4 yearsPut them straight on the block.4 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be the NHS, but it was definitely a scam.NHS4 yearsDon’t share anything with them, it’s a total scam. The NHS already has all your vaccine info and they’d never ring you up asking for it. Just block that number straight away.NHS4 yearsThis number has rung me a few times but I haven’t managed to pick up on any of them.4 yearsGot a call from a guy with an Asian accent who said he was ringing on behalf of the NHS. He wanted to know if I’d experienced any side effects from the covid jab. When I tried to chat a bit more, he just ended the call straight away.NHS4 yearsWe did warn people to watch out, and even threw in a free Parker pen, but their dodgy 5-finger discount is probably the best deal out there!Parker4 yearsGot a call earlier from some guy going on about the covid jab, saying I urgently needed a booster shot. When I pushed back a bit, he went off on a really weird tangent, saying all sorts of graphic stuff that made me feel uncomfortable. I told him to take me off his list and he just shouted at me to shut up and called me some horrible names. Definitely dodgy and not someone you wanna deal with. Best to just ignore these calls, total waste of time and creepy as hell.4 yearsSpam calls again! Can't believe how often it happens.4 yearsI reckon this is one of those dodgy coronavirus scams going around.4 yearsGot a call marked as possible fraud on my phone, so I just ignored it and gonna block the number now.4 yearsWhat a dodgy scam! I’ve blocked this number now, but seeing all the comments below, it’s clear why these scam calls just won’t stop. I guess I’ll report it like everyone says. Getting in touch with my MP sounds like a waste of time though - probably too wrapped up in their own nonsense instead of looking after the country’s economy or preventing a disaster like WW3. Still, might as well give it a go and see what comes of it.4 yearsI’m curious to find out if I’ve had both doses of the COVID vaccine.4 yearsI'm pretty sure this is a scam. If it was truly the NHS on the other end, there wouldn’t be any need for them to check if you've had your vaccine cause they’d already have all that info.NHS4 yearsThey called asking if I’d been vaccinated for COVID, but I didn’t let the convo go on for long. Every time they asked something, I just kept replying with “right, right?” It was so weird, honestly!4 yearsGot a call saying it was just a quick survey. At first they asked me about Covid and if I'd had any jabs. Then they switched to questions about mortgage and life insurance. I told them I wasn’t comfy talking about insurance but was fine with health stuff. Then they told me I was 'a daft woman' and just dropped the call on me. Honestly, that made me laugh out loud!Covid4 yearsI reckon 07880751121 is just another UK number they’re using. Sounds like David Diestados is the middleman in all this.David DiestadosUK4 yearsGot a call from some annoying bloke claiming to be from the NHS asking if I’d had my covid booster. Told him to jog on pretty quickly. Ended up blocking the number and reporting it. Such a pain!NHSCovid4 yearsGot a call with no voicemail left, which is odd for a proper company as they usually drop a message with their info. Seems dodgy, so I've blocked the number. I tried ringing it back and got an automated response saying the number I dialled is wrong. Definitely a scam.4 yearsI’ve blocked this number ages ago yet still get alerts about missed calls from it. It’s one of those dodgy COVID jab scams. Really wish the government would step up and put a stop to these scammers once and for all.4 yearsDidn’t pick up cause I didn’t know the number. After seeing what others have said, it’s clearly some nasty scam by really dodgy folks. Make sure you text 7726 with “call” plus the number that tried to ring you. I’ve blocked the number myself but still getting calls every day. Cheers to everyone who’s reporting it!4 yearsSomebody claimed to be from the NHS and asked if I’d been vaccinated. When I asked them the same question back, they just ended the call.NHS4 yearsSomeone just rang me, but when I picked up, there was no one there. Had a quick look and it seems to be one of those NHS covid scams. The last time I got through to these people, they were actually trying to push some life insurance on me. 🙄NHS COVID4 yearsIt's definitely a scam, they were clearly just after my private details. This sort of thing ought to be reported to prevent others falling for it.4 yearsGotta say, big thanks to the bloke down there warning us to always watch out before dealing with this one. As someone else mentioned on here, it’s proper smart to report this dodgy number and scam details straight to the coppers. Solid advice if you ask me. I bet that bloody scammer will try to drown out the truth with nonsense comments though.4 yearsHonestly, when we gathered all the info, it felt like nothing could hold us back, not even Action Fraud! That was what made it so brilliant.4 yearsGot two calls from the same number, answered the phone and the line just dropped out.4 yearsHad no intention to pick up, so ended up blocking the number.4 yearsThere was this bloke who kept butchering my surname, and when I told him that and asked what he was after, he just went and hung up on me.4 yearsI’m with the NHS and honestly stuff like this really bugs me. Some bloke rang up about his jab, but when I asked which one he’d had, he got all confused and awkward.NHS4 yearsThis is definitely a scam, the NHS would never ring you up like this.NHS4 yearsReceived a query about my vaccination status, with the caller asserting they were from the NHS. I've got my reservations about that!NHS4 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be the 'covid 19 support line' regarding my jabs. They only used my first name and a title, no last name, which felt dodgy. Decided to block the number straight away.4 yearsHad a missed call with no voicemail, which usually means it’s not urgent, so I didn’t bother ring them back. But after seeing the comments, I’ve decided to block the number. Been getting loads of calls from various UK locations and different numbers, and after googling them, it’s clear these are all linked to the same scam - something about NHS vaccine stuff. So, I’m labelling this as ‘Risky’ for sure.UK4 yearsGot a call claiming to be from the NHS, asking about my vaccine status. Then suddenly they started asking about my life insurance and the provider I use. When I said this didn’t sound right and mentioned it wasn’t the NHS, they still insisted they were. Honestly, they came across as really unprofessional.NHS4 yearsThey called, but used the wrong title when asking for me. Didn’t share any other details at all.Submit Your Own Report (01480 879716)
