Definitely a dodgy number from O2, they already had some of my info which was a bit creepy. They claimed I’d joined an O2 scheme or something, but I never did.

This number's a scam from O2, they already had some of my info which freaked me out, but they claimed I'd agreed to some O2 thing which I definitely hadn't.

Another scam call claiming to be from o2, but then the guy said he worked for some third party firm, Intelling or something like that. Guess I’ll add this number to my ever-growing blocked list.

They claimed to be 02 but when I said the number was flagged as a scam, they got all defensive. I then said they should find better things to do than trying to scam vulnerable folks. Told them I was reporting the number to the police, and then she just hung up on me lol 🤣🤣

Loads of calls from people saying they’re from 02, trying to sell me sim deals or contracts. They ring me like a dozen times a day and act all sorts of ways just to get you to hand over your bank info. Proper dodgy if you ask me.

Watch out for these individuals - they're nothing but con artists! They definitely do not represent O2. Do yourself a favour and hang up!

I've refrained from picking up, but the amount of unsolicited calls I've been receiving is absolutely relentless ever since I submitted my phone number to SwitchMobile for a phone plan. Honestly, it feels as if I'm being bombarded or perhaps my details have been compromised. Whatever the case, this number won't stop pestering me!

Got a call from 02 again, asking for my card details to "upgrade" my phone after three months of direct debit payments. They said if you’ve got bad credit, you can still upgrade. I didn’t fall for it and just ignored the call - total scam!

Total rip off. Don’t share any info. Got a call asking for my card details. Seemed legit cause I had recently filled in a form about a mobile sim deal. Everything was fine until they wanted my debit card number, which I knew was dodgy.
5 years
Complete con job, if you ask me. They're requesting your debit card information, including the CVV and expiry date - it's nothing short of a sham! Totally dodgy and utterly untrustworthy.

I've been inundated with five missed calls today, and quite frankly, it's driving me up the wall. I'd really appreciate it if you could add this number to the block list. Cheers!

They said they was ringing about some government grant to help with debt. I told them I ain't got no debt and never signed up for nothing. Then I asked how they got my number, and suddenly they just hung up on me. Proper scam and harassment if you ask me.

Annoying me non stop.

Complete scam, said he was calling from O2. The bloke on the phone kept pushing even after I said no thanks. Then he started asking if my relatives might be interested. I told him to take me off their list as I never agreed to any of this. I’ve blocked the number now. Heads up, they ring from various numbers.

I received a call claiming to be from O2, and I promptly informed the caller that I was onto their scam. The chap on the other end became quite irate and feisty, insisting that they were merely trying to assist me in getting a top-notch phone plan. I pointed out that if he truly represented O2, they wouldn't be ringing me up with a deal; they'd be reaching out regarding overdue payments instead!

DO NOT TRUST. Some bloke rang me saying he was from o2. He sounded really convincing and tried to get me to agree to a “great deal”. When my parcel arrived and I double checked with o2 themselves, I found out this guy and the number aren’t connected to o2 at all.

This number rang me as well and I’m not sure if it’s legit or not. I work at O2 and we do call from numbers like this quite a lot. We only get in touch if you’ve agreed to be contacted in some way though. If you’re not interested, just get in touch with customer service on 202 and ask them to stop marketing calls. We have to reach out to anyone who’s shown interest online, either directly or through O2, so it doesn’t mean it’s a scam, just that you’d made an enquiry before.

O2 claimed I made an enquiry on some website, but that’s not true at all. When I asked which site, they couldn’t say. They’ve been calling me every day now, and after a bunch of missed calls, I’ve had to block them. No idea where they got my number from, I never share it with anyone.

Received a series of relentless calls from someone claiming to be with O2. They were incredibly overbearing, pushing their offer at every opportunity and simply couldn’t accept a refusal. Their persistence was quite off-putting, and after numerous attempts to reach me, I decided to cut them off completely by blocking the number. It's quite annoying, to say the least!
