7 yearsGot a call from this number today claiming to be from broadband, sounded like a total scam. Used Truecaller and it popped up right away as suspicious. Blocked it now coz it’s proper annoying.Truecaller8 yearsThis K##### kept calling me last Friday, Monday, and again today. It's really annoying. I haven’t picked up as I saw people saying it’s ‘Stephen from O2’. It’s clearly against GDPR rules. I've blocked the number, but I reckon they'll try ringing from a different one, and if they do, I’m going to tell them exactly where to shove it.Stephen8 yearsGot a call from someone called Steven saying he was from O2, but he just hung up straight away. Definitely spam stuff. Watch out folks.Steven8 yearsGot a call from someone named Stephen at O2, told him it don’t comply with GDPR, definitely a scam.Stephen8 yearsJust got called again by this company saying they're from O2. I asked why they were ringing since I'm not with O2. He said they ring both existing and possible customers. I told him it's illegal now to contact people like that unless they've given permission. He said he'd remove me from their list. I told him I've been promised that every time they’ve called, probably about 10 times now, and that I'm going to report O2 to the ICO.Information Commissioner 'Office8 yearsSome bloke called saying he was Steven from 02. I said, "Who?" and he just said it again. Then I asked if he knew about GDPR coz I’m not with 02 and don’t want to be. He hung up on me before I finished talking. I’m gonna report this because ages ago when I naively signed up for what I thought were paid surveys but turned out to be marketing scams, I kept getting calls from 02 and told them to stop. Now they’re for sure breaking the law by calling again.StevenO28 yearsEverytime I pick up, it's just silence. Blocked now!8 yearsSomeone said they were from O2. As soon as I mentioned I don’t use O2, they just ended the call. I've gone ahead and blocked the number now.8 yearsGot a call from someone named 'Steven' claiming to be from o2.

I told them to jog on. Complete muppets. Watch out, it’s a scam call.O28 yearsannoying robocall. buzz off!8 yearsDo these calls ever quit? It’s Good Friday and im not gonna pick up the phone today, no way.8 yearsI've received calls from this number on the past couple of days, at 19:27 and then again at 19:55, but they’ve chosen not to leave any messages. I’ve now decided to block the number altogether. They’ll go straight to voicemail from now on, which might just give them a little incentive to reconsider. It’s quite common for companies to make those brief calls just to bait you into ringing back, leaving you with the bill while they sit back and save their pennies!8 yearsReally cheeky and full of themselves.8 yearsGot a call from O2 saying they wanted to help with my “phone usage.” I ended the call straight away since I’m not even with them.
