0161 2749227 has rung me loads of times but never left a message. I've blocked the number but it seems they use different numbers with just the last few digits changed. Proper frustrating!

0161 2749227 keeps ringing me loads but never leaves a message. Ive blocked that number but they just keep calling from other numbers that only have the last couple of digits changed. Properly annoying!

They ring me every single day, no matter how many times I block the number. Somehow, they still manage to get through. When they leave voicemails, you can hear faint voices in the background, which makes it really hard to understand what they’re trying to say.

Didn’t pick up, but he dropped a voicemail saying “Jude u on steroids!!” Proper weird mate.

Got a call asking which mobile network I use, told them O2, then they wanted to know how much I put on it every month. I said it’s a contract, and they said sorry and just ended the call!

I’m still not sure who it is, told them twice I’m not interested but they just keep calling. I struggle with anxiety and mental health issues, so this kind of thing really stresses me out. I can’t just ignore unknown numbers either because my kids’ social worker and health care people call from different numbers all the time.

Got a call about a free O2 sim offer! I asked for some details, but as soon as I mentioned my current provider, they just ended the call!

Got a call from this number, they knew my full name, asked who else in my home had a mobile. I accidentally told them it was my partner. They said to text the word Loyalty to a specific number to get 20% off my contract. Funny thing is, they already knew I was on a contract, but I said I was pay as you go. 0161 274 9227

This number rang me several times but I kept missing it. When I finally answered, the caller, a woman who said her name was “Rochelle,” claimed I had ordered a sim card, which I definitely didn’t. So I just blocked it.

Like a few others have said, they said they were from o2, but then started talking rubbish about a SIM card I supposedly ordered (which I did not). After that, she went on asking which network I use. If they’re really o2, wouldn’t they already know I’m with o2? Anyway, reported and blocked.

They knew my first name and said they were from O2, offering a free pay-as-you-go SIM from some contest I apparently joined. My phone flagged the number as suspicious, so I've just blocked it now.

They ring me all the time. I get calls from them every single day. Occasionally I pick up but stay silent till they hang up, thinking if they are paying for calls, they’re just wasting their money sooooo.

That was a nuisance call, blocked it straight away.

Said they were with O2 but their accent was all over the place, really struggled to get what they were saying. Kept messing up English words, like saying "server" instead of survey. Told me I qualified for some "special upgrade" after doing an online survey, which I never did. Pretty clear to me it's a scam.
8 years
they keep ringing me daily sayin they're with 02 and keep asking what network i use, if they were really 02 they’d already know that. im so fed up with these scam calls now.
8 years
Showed up as a scam or possibly fraud, so if the phone companies are aware of this, how come they're still able to keep going? They should be closed down straight away to serve as a lesson to other annoying groups.

Just another BT scam call. They used my first name and said they weren’t trying to sell me anything. No way I’m chatting with someone who acts like they’ve known me forever!

I didn’t pick up, but the voicemail that got left by mistake was some bloke with a Manchester accent mumbling in some sort of code about a ‘711’ and saying something was ‘rubbish’. Sounds a bit sketchy if you ask me.

This number rang me twice, first time I missed it, and about three hours later it called again. When I picked up, they asked if I was (my name), but as soon as I said hello they just ended the call. Pretty strange behaviour.

What an absolute bother! I receive calls from this number daily, despite having blocked it. Given that I'm currently going through chemotherapy, it's particularly frustrating.

They kept ringing about some contest on Facebook for a free holiday. They said to enter, you have to click loads of other offers from different companies like a free O2 sim and stuff.

Didnt pick up this call, but got texts from the same number saying "Hi Steve." Im not Steve tho. The texts were about some new SIM card, but I aint with O2 nor interested in any SIM. Ive been blocking them since they keep ringing from different numbers even though Im on the TPS to stop these kinds of calls.

This is my 4th call in just two days about some O2 sim card. I've told them to take me off their list every single time but they still keep ringing me up.

They've been ringing me nearly every single day for the past couple of weeks looking for some lady named 'Susan'. Complete rubbish. I had enough and told them straight up I've already told loads of people at work to remove my number from their list, and if they call again, I’ll be reporting them to the cops.

I ignored the call since it's mostly call centres ringing up about switching your energy provider or pushin stuff on ya. Even if you say you’re not bothered, they just keep on going, not taking no for an answer. No means no, but they just won’t quit.

I've been getting calls from this number multiple times daily, with a woman’s voice inquiring whether I've had a recent car crash. It’s obviously a pre-recorded message, as it’s identical every single time. I’ve attempted to block the number several times, yet somehow it reappears on my call list. If you want to try and hack my phone, feel free; there's hardly anything of value on it. Quite pointless, really!
