Just today, they called me, and I explicitly asked them to stop ringing me. Would you believe, just two minutes later, my phone rang again, but all I heard was some random music!7 yearsGot two calls from this number today. First time, they said they were from 02. They tried chatting about my pay as you go mobile. Asked if I’d added £25 credit in January (which isn’t true). Then wanted to know what I use my phone for and how much I usually spend topping up. Also asked about how long my credit lasts and what I get for it. I thought 02 would already have all this info, so I just hung up. Didn’t give them any info. Then they called me again, so I’ve blocked the number now.O28 yearsProper pain in the neck.
