Got a call from 0161 850 2429 claiming to be from Switch, saying they were ringing for O2 about a new phone contract. I knew right away it was dodgy, so I pretended to be interested and asked for five phones for my family. You could hear how eager they were. After faffing about with them for about an hour, I finally ended the call and blocked the number. Total waste of time.

Someone called me claiming to be from Virgin Mobile, but I know that number belongs to them, so it has to be a scam! I've gotten 13 calls from the very same number since yesterday. It's really annoying!

I’ve been receiving calls from this number repeatedly, and I’m quite baffled as to who it belongs to. I picked up once, and there was a chap on the other end, but I didn’t stick around for a chat and hung up straight away. It’s buzzed my phone three times now!

After seeing what others said, I just went ahead and blocked the number. Honestly, I can't be bothered putting up with it anymore. They leave these super long silent voicemails that just waste my time. Anyone know how to get rid of these voicemail messages?

So I got called three times today, and finally picked up on the third try. This woman asked if it was me, but there was so much noise in the background, I could barely hear her. Then, out of nowhere, she just hung up after like 10 seconds. Proper strange behaviour.

He mentioned he was ringing from an O2 mobile number.

They keep ringing me even after I blocked the number. For about three weeks straight, I get calls from them nearly every single day.

I managed to get an O2 contract arranged using this phone number and soon after, I got my package from O2 along with a confirmation email.

This number has called me 6 times today - I wouldn't even call it harassment, it's on another level!

When a blocked number tries ringing, it just says "dangerous" straight away and won't let it through.

Not really sure about this one.

The call got diverted to my phone, no greetings or anything, just weird noises for about two minutes. Then some person with a thick Irish accent said, "what's happening here?" and after another minute, they just hung up. Strange experience.

Got a call from a Manchester 02 number trying to sell me 02 stuff. Decided to block it straight away.

Got a call again from someone saying they were from O2 asking for my husband. We don’t even use O2, so I just hung up straight away. Then today I got a message saying my direct debit didn’t go through with a link to update info. No way am I clicking on that, pretty sure it’s a scam.

They rang my mobile askin for my other half, so I wanted to know what it was about. They told me it was about an O2 phone contract that he’d supposedly put in for. I said nah, he never did. Then they changed it to say it was a mobile contract he applied for. Again, I said no way. The person on the other end started stammerin and I just ended the call.

I got a call where the person wanted to know if I was still living at my old postcode. She claimed it wasn’t a sales call or anything promotional, but then she asked how old I was. I answered but then she kept going with more questions, so I just said I was busy and ended the call.
