Phone number ☎️ 01613883429 👆 is reported as a persistent scam call frequently impersonating O2 or other major mobile providers, often using a local Manchester number. Callers employ aggressive tactics, including threats to deactivate SIM cards or offers of discounts and 5G upgrades, but their intent is to extract personal information or financial details. Many receive calls despite not being O2 customers, and the callers frequently display poor English or heavy accents. Recipients are advised not to engage, never to share personal data, and to block and report the number. These calls have been widely flagged as fraudulent and damaging to the reputation of genuine providers, and official channels are recommended for verification of any suspicious contact.

1 yearSome woman with a British accent rang me up, saying she was from a local energy provider. She admitted right away that contacting someone on the Do Not Call list was illegal and then just ended the call. But then I rang the same number back from my phone and an Asian guy picked up, saying he worked for 02 Mobile over in London! Quite fishy if you ask me.ServiceO2 MobileLondon2 yearsGot a dodgy call pretending to be from O2. I played along and wound them up good, and then they snapped back saying, and I’m quoting here, "Have a lovely f***ing day!" Proper funny moment!2 yearsSo, I got a call at work from someone pretending to be from Deliveroo. They said they needed to swap out an old device that was supposedly going to fail soon. They then asked for my address, email, and phone number - that’s when I decided to just end the call. After that, they rang me two more times. Quite annoying!Deliveroo2 yearsGot a call on my mobile from this number. Didn't pick up as I had seen it before on my home phone where it was one of those scam calls. Don't trust these people at all. Scam alert!2 yearsGot a call from someone claiming they were with O2, but it felt off. They tried to get my details, so I’m pretty sure it was a scam. Watch out for callers pretending to be from big companies like that!2 yearsI got a call from this number purporting to be from Three, stating that my SIM card required an upgrade. Apparently, my current 4G SIM needed replacing to switch to 5G. I've reported the incident to Three and have since blocked the number.2 yearsThey rung me but just cut off right when I picked up!2 yearsThis morning, on 2nd July 2024, I received a rather alarming call demanding a payment of £50, threatening that my SIM card would cease functioning within the next two days if I didn’t comply. Naturally, I was quite concerned, so I reached out to my network provider, only to be informed that the call didn’t originate from them at all. Quite a shady operation, if you ask me!2 yearsTotal scam, don’t fall for it.2 yearsSome bloke called himself Jack from 02 but ive never even had 02 before. Cant really say what I told him, wasnt very polite!Jack2 yearsSaid they were from o2 offering a free upgrade to 5g, but honestly its just a total scam. Watch out every time!2 yearsSaid they were from 02, I just ended the call.2 yearsJust a heads up, replying to these could end up with you losing your bank details. Total rip-off.2 years0161 388 3429<br/>Just received a dodgy call from this number, typical telecoms spam. I've put it on my blocked list.

I've promptly flagged this to O2 myself!2 yearsGot calls from this number and another one in London two days straight. Did a quick search and both look like 02 scams to me. I've blocked them both now, just curious to see which number they'll try next.London2 yearsPhony call, the person was acting like they were from 02.2 yearsDidn't pick up, had about the same number from Manchester and knew right off it was dodgy. Get loads of scam calls from folks saying they're from o2, and since I am an o2 customer and have answered a few times before, they keep coming back. Best to steer clear!Manchester2 yearsThey said something about my O2 sim but I don’t even use O2. Told them to buzz off and hung up. Pretty sure it was one of those scam calls.2 yearsThey claimed to be from 02 then started asking for my personal info. Definitely a scam.2 yearsI got two calls today from someone saying they were with o2, telling me my sim card would stop working in two days or so. I just wished for good health and kinda zoned out after that. Definitely sounds like a scam to me.2 yearsSaid he was calling from O2, which is who I get my SIM from. I’m not with O2 tho so this has to be a scam.2 yearsTotal scammers!2 yearsGot a call supposedly from O2 about my contract, but I don’t even have one with them. Most of what he said didn’t make sense, so I just told him I ain’t got a contract and hung up. Classic scammer move!2 yearsGot a call saying they were from my SIM provider. I just ended the call. Seems like a scam to me since they should be contacting the number linked to the account, not this one.2 yearsGot a call today from an Asian bloke who asked how I was doing out of the blue!! With all the scam calls going about these days, I just hung up and blocked the number right away.2 yearsI received a call which I decided to ignore initially, but then I promptly called back. When I picked up, there was an Asian gentleman on the line claiming to represent O2. He warned me that my SIM would be deactivated within the next two days because it wasn't 4G. I found it suspicious and ended the conversation right away.2 yearsGot a bloke on the phone saying he was from O2, where my SIM is supposedly from. Thing is, I’m with a different network altogether.

Total scam.2 years+44 161 388 3429 rang me on my phone, didn’t know who it was and not saved anywhere in my contacts, so I just blocked it.2 yearsI keep getting calls from this number, but they never bother to leave a voicemail. I've had enough, so I've gone ahead and blocked them.2 yearsI got a ring from 0161 388 3429, claiming to be from O2, saying they were updating their systems and that a 5G SIM card would be on its way to me tomorrow. Honestly, it felt fairly authentic at the time, but they were rather inquisitive about my Gmail and Yahoo details. I’m beginning to worry that I may have fallen into a scam! Could anyone advise on the steps I should take?2 yearsPhone rang earlier today, but I wasn’t able to pick up. Never got a voicemail or anything after. Seems a bit dodgy to me. CFJCFJ2 yearsJust some annoying spam ringing me up.2 yearsTotal scammers, beware!2 yearsThe caller talked super fast with really broken English, could hardly understand a word. Claimed to be offering a 40% off deal for O2. Couldn't give clear info about the bill though. Checked my recent calls and saw they’d been ringing loads over the past week. Definitely think this number needs to be blocked.2 yearsRang me back - total spam!2 yearsThis number has rung me three times in a row even tho i didnt answer. I reported it to O2 several times but seems like they havent taken any action about it.2 yearsReceived a call saying they were from my mobile network offering me 40% off my next invoice. Total scam, don’t trust it.2 yearsThey began attempting to withdraw money from my bank account.2 yearsGot a dodgy call sayin it was from O2, warning my SIM would be cut off. When I asked questions, the guy said he was Jason Williams but had a really thick accent that didn’t sound English at all. I requested my account number and email, but of course he said it was ‘confidential’ and couldn’t share. O2 really should do something about these scammers cos it makes them look bad.

When he cheekily inquired about what was on their agenda next-perhaps wanting his email or bank details?-they abruptly hung up. Oh, and the caller had quite a strong Asian accent. Quite the dodgy encounter, if you ask me!2 yearsTotally frustrating. These scam calls are from the worst kind of people and should be jailed. Such rubbish. +44 161 388 34292 yearsLooks like an O2 contract scam, be careful!2 yearsHad a call from these folks earlier today. They stated they were refreshing O2’s systems and insisted I needed to re-register to receive a new SIM card. When I probed further, they claimed to be calling from their Slough office, but the number I saw definitely points to Greater Manchester. The accent was the typical strong Asian tone too. I strongly advise ignoring their messages and steer clear of any engagement. It sounds quite dodgy!SloughGreater Manchester2 yearsReceived a call yesterday claiming to be from O2, stating that my SIM card was set to become obsolete. It was quite evident it was a scam.
