01567380029 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01567380029 👆 is reported as a persistent scam number linked to unsolicited premium text message charges of around £4.50 to £9 weekly, often connected to fake prize competitions and subscription services such as "Top Prizes" or companies named Socman Ltd and Switchfire. Victims frequently report difficulty stopping the texts or subscription, with standard STOP commands failing and customer service unresponsive or hostile. The charges typically appear on mobile bills without genuine consent, affecting various UK networks including Vodafone, EE, O2, and Tesco Mobile. Many users advise reporting to Phone Pay Plus, contacting provider fraud departments, and, if necessary, changing phone numbers. Authorities have been urged to intervene, as victims include vulnerable individuals and pensioners, with the general consensus warning against engaging with messages or calling provided numbers.

Beware this number! They send messages that charge you £4.50 each time. I contacted three different mobile providers and they all said it’s not their issue. I think the company behind it also goes by the name tap2bill and uses the shortcode 60336, which charges the same amount per message.

I reckon Vodafone might be involved in this whole affair. This outfit previously operated under the name WIN IN LDT. They've now rebranded themselves as SOCMAN.LTD. It seems like they’re swapping names every half a year or so. They’re really taking liberties with our cash without facing any repercussions. If you're looking to reclaim your funds, I suggest ringing Phone Pay Plus at 0300 303 0020. Best of luck getting your money back!

It appears that these individuals possess some kind of control over the messaging system, as when I attempted to send a message saying STOP to a couple of the numbers, my texts failed to go through. Following that, I noticed that all the messages which had been delivered to my computer vanished without a trace, as if remotely wiped. Shortly after, I received multiple notifications from the server apologising for their inability to process my request-presumably referring to my STOP message. It seems evident to me that the unwanted messages will persist, and putting an end to them is quite the challenge. I reckon the most viable course of action would be to close my account, switch providers, and possibly change my phone number altogether.

I've got a mobile broadband set up on my Osprey Mini, which gives me an EE phone number (and let's be honest, it's all linked to "MobilePhones"). I'm seriously beginning to suspect that we've fallen victim to a hacking incident. It appears these cybercriminals might be siphoning funds through the billing system of my mobile provider. Curiously, the only messages I send from this number are to the EE Billing Department, and I haven’t shared this number with anyone else. Quite concerning, wouldn’t you say?

I’ve been absolutely fed up with these rotten swindlers nicking my dosh for ages now, and Vodafone seems to be completely indifferent to it all. I've always honoured my payments, but let me tell you, good luck trying to make the next one. Every time they assure me that I won't be hit with extra charges, it turns out to be a complete and utter farce!

Yesterday, I found myself a victim of a fraudulent charity scheme. My bank account took a hit of £27 altogether, courtesy of Three mobile network, as they charged me £9 on three separate occasions. It's quite infuriating since I never authorised or consented to any arrangement with them.

I recently encountered a situation where I was billed by the same organisation. Upon contacting Vodafone, they informed me that it was a charity contribution I had supposedly agreed to. However, I can categorically state that I never consented to any such charity. As soon as I noticed the charge, I promptly alerted Vodafone, and to their credit, they agreed to refund my money. I even received a text confirmation regarding this. What’s troubling, though, is that Vodafone initially seemed hesitant and almost evasive to acknowledge the issue. It was only after I insisted upon evidence that they finally conceded to refund the amount. So, if you spot any suspicious charges, make sure to report them to Vodafone right away!

As a retiree myself, I’m absolutely appalled to find that I’m being charged £9.00 every Tuesday. I’ve done everything possible to halt these deductions, even sending a text to request cancellation and being informed of a fee for that service. However, my message got blocked instead! When I reached out to Vodafone, they told me they couldn’t intervene as it’s a third-party issue and they can't disclose any details about them. To me, this feels like a coordinated scheme, and Vodafone seems to be ignoring the issue entirely. At this point, I’m left with no choice but to consider cancelling my 25-year contract with them, as their lack of support and loyalty towards long-standing customers is utterly disappointing.

I've encountered a similar issue. I reached out to Vodafone and they assured me that they’d put a stop to it, yet my latest bill still shows an extra £9 added weekly. It’s absolutely infuriating! It feels like Vodafone is just brushing me off. They mentioned something about refunding me £20, but there's nothing on my call log to corroborate that... it's as if they’re not taking this seriously at all!

I've attempted to put a stop to this now on four occasions, yet I'm still being charged a pesky £9 every week. I've reached out to Vodafone, and they've issued a credit note for one of the £9 charges, but despite my requests to block this number twice, the charges just keep rolling in. It's incredibly frustrating! Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

Honestly, it’s so frustrating being hit with a £4.50 fee every time. What kind of miserable existence do these crooks have, stealing cash from others? They should seriously find proper work instead of ripping people off like this. I keep getting messages and getting charged for stuff I never agreed to - it’s well beyond annoying!

I've recently found myself in a bit of a pickle with these blokes.

Vodafone has mentioned they're looking into the situation.

Right then! Instead of stewing in our frustration, why not take some action? I’ve been swindled out of a fair few quid by these charlatans. The mastermind behind this dodgy operation is none other than Dace Viesture, and the firm is located at 591 London Road, North Cheam. They’ve got two different businesses registered-Socman Ltd and Mobile Paid Services Helpline. You can find their records on the Companies House website. Here’s an idea: if anyone’s keen to band together and file a lawsuit for £5000 (which only costs £185), we could potentially push them into bankruptcy. If you're interested in joining forces, drop me a line at [email protected]. Let’s not sit idle while they take advantage of innocent folks!

It's the same firm that was fleecing me £9 per week, and I noticed they used to ring me from 02035405938. I've tried reaching out to Vodafone for a refund, but they're not helping at all. To make matters worse, I can't get hold of the company either - no response whatsoever. I've reported them to Action Fraud and highly recommend that others do the same!

As an 82-year-old pensioner, I found myself quite content with my £20 monthly plan, which allowed me to stay in touch with my relatives. However, I've recently been hit with a startling increase to £60 a month. Consequently, I switched to an unlimited text and call package in October. Yet, come November 19th, I was dealt another blow with an additional £18.40 charge for SMS! That’s two days’ worth of my budget for the week gone in a flash. One must wonder where the safeguards are in this situation. Could it potentially warrant a complaint to the authorities?

I stumbled across an offer for a chance to win £500 from Tesco through Facebook, which seemed a bit dubious to me. Naturally, I reached out to Virgin Mobile for assistance, but to my dismay, they were rather unhelpful and ended the conversation abruptly. After that, I switched to a pay-as-you-go plan, yet I continue to receive an endless stream of texts that apparently have some connection to Virgin. I’m not entirely sure what’s going on, but I did manage to stop the pesky texts today by replying with a 'stop' message to the number they provided.

Has anyone managed to get a refund through an appeal? I’m really annoyed because they’ve been taking £9 every week for three months (my pay day sort of masked it, so I didn’t notice how much it added up to). I just rang 01567 380029 and they said they’ll look into it and reply within 5 working days. I’m proper steamed about it, but I’m not holding my breath on actually getting any cash back!

I’m feeling rather anxious as I've been receiving messages from a company called Top Prizes, which I've never heard of and certainly never consented to join. They've claimed that I'm "subscribed" to a fee of £4.50 each week, but I have no interest in such a programme whatsoever. I'm baffled as to how they obtained my phone number. They’ve suggested I text 61991 to unsubscribe or ring the aforementioned number, but I have no intention of doing that given it’s a premium rate line, and others who have tried seem to have been left with charges anyway. Can anyone explain how they might be able to charge me via my mobile, as I only have a £5 goody bag with giffgaff? It’s quite distressing, and I need some reassurance that they can’t pile up any hidden fees on me...they sound completely dodgy!

I've been encountering the same issue with my TalkTalk bill-an extra £4.50 has been added to my account every month for the past four months. I've reached out to TalkTalk's help line repeatedly, but it's just the same frustrating cycle with no resolution in sight. If anyone has any suggestions on how to put an end to this scam, I would greatly appreciate it!

The number appears to be premium-rate, and I'm getting nothing back on that front either. I reached out to Tesco to block any pricey numbers from calling me, but unfortunately, the pesky messages keep rolling in, claiming I've won some sort of prize. It's become a never-ending cycle of delete, delete, delete!

A month ago, I found myself unwittingly enrolled in their so-called Hot Prizes competition, resulting in an unwelcome £22.50 charge on my BT Mobile bill. Upon discovering this, I wasted no time in blocking their number and the reference tied to my account. I also followed their instructions to text 'STOP' to 85011. Shortly after, I received confirmation that I would no longer participate in their dubious competition. I've been keeping a close eye on my BT Mobile account, and thankfully, there haven't been any further charges from this scam. Wishing you all the best!

Right, everyone! It’s high time you took control and get that direct debit cancelled with your mobile provider, whether it’s O2, EE, or whoever else! They’re simply siphoning your hard-earned cash. It’s as simple as clicking a button to cancel! But do your homework first-make sure that the new provider won’t pull the same stunt. If we all band together and make a stand, it’ll really shake things up. So go on, get that direct debit sorted now!

Since June, my monthly bill has mysteriously inflated by around £30 to £40, and I definitely haven't subscribed to anything. I managed to track down the number linked to this issue by dialling another one listed on my statement, one that I didn’t recognise at all. When I contacted the number in question, I was informed that they represented a customer service organisation affiliated with various internet providers. To my utter disbelief, they claimed I had unwittingly signed up for a subscription to an adult website-something I wouldn't dream of doing! The customer service representative seemed to recognise my confusion and assured me that this was indeed a scam. She promised to reach out to the website in question to advocate for a refund on my behalf. Thankfully, Vodafone has now blocked that number, so I’m just left waiting to see if that indeed halts any further charges.

However, it appears their efforts have gone awry, as it’s still ongoing. I never signed up for this sort of thing, or anything remotely like it, for that matter.

I was taken aback by my latest BT bill - it had soared to an extraordinary amount! A thorough look revealed that I had been charged for premium-rate numbers every single Monday for the past two months. My son made an effort to intervene and set up a block on these calls, but he just couldn't get through to 60145, as all attempts seemed to fall flat. The support number they provided, 01567380029, was no better; I couldn't catch a reliable signal. When I tried using my landline, it just kept ringing with no answer. They claim they'll return the call if using a mobile, but as a senior citizen myself, and with my husband being 81, it’s quite disheartening.

Having perused the remarks above, I felt compelled to share my own experience as a 74-year-old retiree living on a modest pension. Between the 25th of July and the 16th of August, an entity known as Socman managed to extract £19.25 from my EE account without my consent. I find this absolutely shocking and it's left me quite anxious about the ease with which companies can operate in such a manner, almost under the radar. Thankfully, EE has placed a block on these transactions, but now I'm faced with the tedious task of reclaiming my funds. It’s a source of great frustration. I did manage to have a conversation with someone at Socman, who assured me they would look into it, but I'm not particularly optimistic about the outcome.
