2 monthsI got a phone call that showed as CURRYS on the screen, but I didn’t pick up. They just hung up straight away. After checking this number online, I found loads of folks saying it’s a scam, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked it and deleted it from my phone.3 monthsFor about five weeks now, i’ve been getting calls daily from the same number. Initially, i assumed it was Vodafone, but the sheer frequency of the calls seemed a bit off to me.Vodafone9 monthsI didnt pick up the phone, but the caller ID showed CURRYS which might trick some into answering. They didnt leave any voicemail or message either.9 monthsSome woman called saying she was from Carphone Warehouse, but I could tell straight away it was dodgy. She mentioned my name and even named the phone I own. Then she started asking if I wanted to upgrade or cut back my sim only deal. Weirdly, she even knew the years I’d done previous upgrades. She kept hassling me, questioning why I didn’t want to reduce my contract since I’d been doing it for the past few years. When I told her I was busy and would get back to her, she got all annoyed and kept pushing. I just had to hang up on her.Carphone Warehouse9 monthsI've been getting nonstop automated calls everyday from Currys Carphone Warehouse. The number they use doesn't even let you call back. When I tried to stop it, Currys told me I have to actually go into their store to sort it out, which is ridiculous because the calls just keep coming otherwise.Currys Carphone WarehouseCurrys10 monthsIt's definitely a scam, folks! I got called several times by a Chinese woman, and just today, a relative got a similar call from some bloke claiming to be from Carphone Warehouse saying their contract was nearly up?Carphone Warehouse1 yearI got a call from this number saying they were from Carphone Warehouse, offering me a free early upgrade and a better deal on my contract. They tried to go ahead with the upgrade during the call but I decided to hang up because something about it didn’t feel right. When I rang Carphone Warehouse’s official customer service, they confirmed the number was genuine. Still, I chose to cancel the whole thing because I wasn’t completely convinced it was legit.Carphone Warehouse2 yearsThey’ve been ringing me a couple of times daily for the past three weeks. Only once did they leave a voicemail, but it was just silence. I checked with Curry’s and Carphone Warehouse in person, and they said it’s not them.CurryCarphone Warehouse2 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be Carphone Warehouse, saying I could upgrade my contract. They spoke so fast it was impossible to interrupt. Totally a scam. When I asked them to send the info to my email or address, they said deals only happen over the phone. Best to just hang up and block them.Carphone Warehouse2 yearsOver the past few weeks, I’ve gotten a few calls all starting with 0161 but ending with different digits. They all sound like they're coming from the same firm, and the person on the line had the same foreign accent each time. Really weird!2 yearsGot a call about renewing my phone contract which ends in a couple of months. The guy on the line was a nicely spoken Asian-British chap who seemed pretty clued up. I could hear a lot of noise in the background, so I guessed it was from a call centre. I know big firms like EE or BT often use outsiders for these calls, so I thought it might be legit. He offered me a deal with a Motorola G13 while keeping my current phone for about £25 a month, insurance included. Later, I got emails that looked legit from Currys and Vodafone, even showing Vodafone’s known phone number. I’m not sure if he was officially representing them or if they were just confirming a deal that could end up being dodgy. They asked for my personal info like name, address, and banking details (but not the CVC on my card). Currys do have a £17 per month deal for the Motorola G13, but when I called their customer service today, they didn’t know about such an offer. Vodafone also seemed unaware of the phone being available from them but said the contract was active. The phone’s supposed to be sent by DPD. Looking back, this whole thing feels suspicious. If I got that call again, I’d just hang up, note down the number and report it to the fraud teams. If you’re thinking about switching your phone deal, always contact your provider FIRST, don’t just take a random call.EEBTMotorolaCurrysVodafoneCVCDPD3 yearsDouble checked with Currys/Carphone Warehouse and they told me this number’s a scam. I’ve been advised to report it to action fraud.CurrysCarphone WarehouseAction Fraud3 yearsI got a call just as my contract was nearly up, but it sounded like they might have been looking at my husband’s account or something? Thing is, he doesn’t even have an account with them. They asked for my full name, address, DOB and email. I’m not about to hand over personal stuff like that on a call. It felt a bit off, so I told them to send me something in writing instead.3 yearsI received a dodgy call purporting to be from Carphone Warehouse, insisting I was eligible for an upgrade. They attempted to manipulate the situation, making me doubt my own experiences regarding potential fraud. After terminating the call, I reached out to my mobile provider, who confirmed that this is indeed a recent scam designed to breach your account security. Best to stay alert!Carphone Warehouse3 yearsGot a dodgy call from someone pretending to be Carphone Warehouse about an upgrade, but I haven't been with them for more than 8 years. Total scam.Carphone Warehouse3 yearsAbsolute time wasters, if you ask me! I've just put them on my blocked list!3 yearsThey asserted they were representatives from Carphone Warehouse, but I'm rather sceptical about that. The call ended abruptly as soon as I brought up the Telephone Preference Service.Carphone Warehouse3 yearsGot an automated message saying it was from Currys, that they’d tried reaching me and I don’t need to do anything cause they’ll call back. Problem is, I don’t have any orders or anything with Currys.Curry ’ s3 yearsGot calls from this number like 5 times over just a few days. Proper annoying. Had no idea who was ringing so I just blocked it. Unknown caller for sure.3 yearsGot a call just like that earlier, but I didn’t agree to any email about renewing a contract. I’m planning to pop into Curry’s this evening to check if it’s for real!Curry3 yearsLegit call from Currys or Carphone Warehouse about upgrading early. Got the phone delivered the very next day.CurrysCarphone Warehouse3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Currys regarding my phone contract renewal. It sounded quite genuine since my contract is actually up for renewal in April.Currys3 yearsGot a call from someone asking if I wanted to upgrade my phone and they even knew when my current plan finishes. It felt quite legit, but since I usually get calls directly from Vodafone, I'm a bit suspicious. Not sure if it’s a scam or not. Best not to trust just anyone these days - be careful with these calls!Vodafone4 yearsGot a call from Carphone Warehouse about my contract finishing soon, sounded quite legit.Carphone Warehouse4 yearsIf you get a ring from this number anytime after 2021 and they claim to be from Carphone Warehouse, dont believe it! That company went bust or whatever and changed its name to Currys Mobile now. Seems dodgy to me, probably a scam caller trying to trick ppl.Carphone WarehouseCurrys Mobile4 yearsCalled several times, but they only picked up once before abruptly ending the call. Quite odd behaviour!4 yearsGot a call from Carphone Warehouse today, suggesting I could nab a free phone upgrade if I'd agree to extend my contract. Sounds a bit dodgy to me!Carphone Warehouse4 yearsGot a call from Carphone Warehouse the other day, seemed legit. They were chatting about my upgrade options. Apparently, you can actually get a free upgrade like 70 days or so before your contract ends. Just saying, in case anyone’s worried it’s a dodgy call.Carphone Warehouse4 yearsThey claimed to be from Carphone Warehouse, but I hung up 'cause I thought it was dodgy.Carphone Warehouse5 yearsGot a call from Carphone Warehouse right when my contract was ending. They actually gave me a better offer than what i saw when I went to the shop. Definitely worth waiting for their call.Carphone Warehouse5 yearsThis number has rung me like about ten times over the past week or so. I usually don’t pick up when I’m at the office, so not totally sure if it’s genuine. Anyway, I gave it a go and called back, and it turned out to be Carphone Warehouse. They said something about an upgrade coming up next month, which is actually true. So it might be legit after all.Carphone Warehouse5 yearsThey didn’t say a word, so I’m guessing they wanted to capture my voice or something.5 yearsI got a call that looked like it was from Vodafone, asking if I wanted to extend my contract. It sounded genuine enough.VodafoneSubmit Your Own Report (0161 808 0157)
