Phone number ☎️ 01615072862 👆 is reported as a number frequently associated with calls claiming to be from O2, often requesting personal or account information. Many users find the calls suspicious due to unsolicited contact, pressure for sensitive details, and inconsistencies in the representatives' behaviour. Some callers appear knowledgeable, mentioning specific account details, which raises concerns about data misuse. While a few individuals who contacted O2 directly were told the calls might be genuine or by third-party agents, O2 officially states they do not cold call customers, leading to suspicions of scams or rogue activity. It is strongly advised not to share any personal or financial information with this number and to verify any contact independently via official O2 channels before responding. Blocking these calls is commonly recommended by users.

7 yearsGot a call asking who handles payment for my contract. They didn’t bother checking if they had the correct person. Wouldn’t recommend sharing any details with them.7 yearsThey’ve tried calling me three times today but I didn’t pick up any of them.7 yearsPretending to be o2, ive actually spoken to o2 before and they told me they dont randomly ring up customers like that.O27 yearsIf you check with o2 directly they’ll tell you they dont just ring up customers randomly, anyone saying this is legit is just lying and probably helping the scammers out. After speaking more with o2 it looks like some dodgy ex-worker is using stolen info to pull off a scam.7 yearsThey wanted my details. Why? No idea!7 yearsSaid they were from o2 and wanted my partner by his first name, I told them to ring his other number instead, then they had the cheek to ask me for it 👌 nice try mate, if you were really from o2 you’d already have that info.7 yearsThey claim to be 02 and try to get your personal details to scam you.7 yearsSome bloke said he was from 02 but wanted to check my house number and postcode. Nah, not happening!7 yearsPicked up the phone and they said it was O2, so I just hung up. Later I got in touch with O2 through their live chat on their site and they told me it really was them ringing.7 yearsI rang the number back and it was just an automated voice from O2. The recording said to hit 2 if you want to opt out of their service or press another key to talk to someone.7 yearsPicked up the phone and told them my name and that my number finished with those digits. Didn’t want to give my address though, so I ended the call. Oddly, they still sent me a code after I’d already hung up - could’ve let them open a new O2 account pretending to be me. Really glad I ended the call when I did! Best not to reply or share any info!7 yearsThis bloke claimed to be from o2 but when I told him I was upset about a random number calling me, he insisted it wasn’t random and that it was o2. I said I got a fraud warning on my o2 phone so I’d call back if that’s true. He kept pushing that he was from o2 and could send me a text, wouldn’t take no for an answer. Had to be quite firm and told him I wasn’t happy to talk, then hung up. Best just block it and phone o2 yourself directly.7 yearsBeen getting calls every day for the past few days but just brushed them off till today. The bloke said he was from 02 and had some discounts for me. Wasn't bothered really so just told him goodbye and ended the call.7 yearsGot a call from some bloke claiming to be from O2, asking for my postcode and other personal details. I told him I’m not comfortable sharing that kinda info. Funny enough, he said I was right to be cautious and that it was part of some act. Felt like he was well prepared for that reply. Later, he sent me a text with a code for O2 discounts. I wasn’t sure if it was genuine but the message came from an O2 number I’ve seen before, so I’m a bit clueless on whether to trust it or not.7 yearsIm fairly certain its actually O2 since i called the number back and it went through to O2 customer support or something like that. If u google the number, some bloke messaged O2 on Facebook using his number and they said yep, it’s them.O2Facebook7 yearsJust got a call from someone pretending to be O2, trying to get my account info. Definitely a scam.7 yearsThey tried to sell me some deals but wouldn’t say much and sounded a bit lost? Bit of a rubbish try but I did ring them first so maybe they got me?7 years01615072860 - pretending to be 02, dont pick up, just had to get a new debit card, usually im pretty good at telling scams apart but they sounded so convincing i got caught out.7 yearsthey keep ringin like 3 times daily so ive just blocked it now8 yearsPretty clear its a scam, ive had calls from 02 in the past and they always ask proper questions first.8 yearsgot calls from 01542308218 and 01332827968 earlier today too. one from cannock, another derby and last one manchester. all saying there’s a computer problem. seem to mess around with the area codes so you can’t block them. the voice sounded asian.CannockDerbyManchester8 yearsGot a call from this number saying they were from 02. Didn't buy it at all - sounded really dodgy. They started asking loads of personal stuff about my account that only 02 would know. Blocked straight away!8 yearsi was in the middle of a lesson so i didnt answer and let it go to voicemail. when i checked, all i heard was someone chuckling for like 4 secs. pretty sure it was a scam.8 yearsPicked up thinking it might be someone from work trying to reach me, but they didnt say a word. Ended up hanging up after about 9 seconds.8 yearsmy phone flagged this as possible scam today so watch out and block asap!8 yearsit was actually 02 who used this number, they reached out to me about some rewards, sent me a text and did all the usual stuff to make sure it was really them8 yearsGot a missed call from an 02 number with a voicemail, but 02 never contacts me since my mum sorts out my account on another number, plus my sister's is handled the same way. Definitely not 02 calling.8 yearsThey rang me when I was in the middle of a lesson, so I just let it ring out. Later, I looked up the number and saw I’d got a voicemail. It was some bloke, sounded like he was in one of those call centres, just saying “hello?... hello?” then hanging up. Definitely a bit of a laugh with these lads, if you ask me.8 yearsThey claimed to be from 02 but used my old surname, which made me suspicious straight away. I said to ring me back on Monday and looked up the number here. When they do, I’m gonna mess with them a bit, feed them some dodgy info, maybe play a recording of monkeys screeching in the background and pretend I’m stuck with some kind of mad person begging for help. Something like that. Cheers to everyone here!8 yearsGot a weird call but no voicemail. I tried ringing back but no one picked up.8 yearsgot a call from this number sayin they were from 02 and wanted my account info. defo a scam. dont give them any of your details.8 yearsGot a weird call from someone saying they were with O2. They never asked for personal info, just checked if I was the account holder. Then they asked about my experience with the service here and if anyone else in the house has an O2 phone. They mentioned some deals but seemed a bit vague about actually talking about them! Like I said, it was a pretty odd call that made me feel a bit uneasy, but I don't think they got anything from me.8 yearsthis number called me but left no voicemail. i called back and got an answer machine saying it was 02 and not to worry, that they’d try again. seems a bit fishy to me. why expect a proper chat only when it suits them? why show a number if they’re never gonna pick up? i thought 02 was a legit firm and would actually take calls. seems silly not to use a real number they actually answer on. anyway, not sure how genuine they are, just going off what they said.Submit Your Own Report (0161 507 2862)
