We weren’t home when they rang a few times. After reading the reviews, I’ve decided to block the number now.

Today I got a call again from this number so I decided to report it on the police's action fraud website.

Just hang up and don't press 1, I've had these scammers call me over and over again.

Others just called up saying their Visa got charged £600 without their say.

I've received a couple of calls claiming to be from my Visa, informing me about a £600 charge that had supposedly gone through. They urged me to press 1 for assistance. Out of sheer curiosity, I gave in and pressed the button, only to be met with a strange buzzing noise - yet another pointless nuisance call! The voice on the line had a distinctly British accent, mind you.

Got two calls today from this number. Picked up the first one since it seemed local, but it was just a robo message saying something about owing £600 on a visa. Total scam, mate. Just hang up straight away. They want you to press 1, but don’t do it! I’m quite sure Visa never ring about dodgy payments - I sometimes interpret for their call centre, so I know for sure.

Today this number rang me twice around 4.15pm claiming there was a £600 charge on my Visa. As someone who used to work in banking, I can tell it's definitely a scam, but I worry about those who might fall for it. If they keep calling, I’ll have no choice but to report them to the proper officials.

At first, they mentioned something about a visa payment, but then this bloke with an Indian accent answered and said, "Welcome to BT broadband?" Totally confused me!

Got a text saying there was a £600 withdrawal from our Visa card. The thing is, we don’t even own a Visa card! Tried calling them to clear it up, but it just felt fishy. Definitely a scam, watch out!

Just got a call from 01642819957 claiming to be Visa Secure, saying there was a dodgy £600 transaction and to hit 1 if it wasn’t me. Ain’t falling for that nonsense at all.

Got a text saying £600 was withdrawn from our visa card, but here's the thing, we don’t even have a visa card! Tried calling the number they gave to sort it out, but it felt really fishy. Be careful, this sounds like a scam.

I didn’t pick up when they called, but they just kept on ringing and wouldn’t give up.

This sounds just like all the other calls - claiming they’re from Visa. Honestly, just end the call straight away. If it was legit, they wouldn’t use a recorded message!

Got a call today saying they’d taken £600 from my bank, then told me to press 1 to speak to someone after a recorded message. I just ended the call straight away. These calls are so annoying and really stressful.

Got a recorded voice nagging me about a visa account, which seems dodgy cause who’d use a pre-recorded message for something that important? Best just to ignore if you get a call like this.

They kept ringing my mum, who’s an elderly lady with dementia. Proper scumbags, can’t believe how low they stoop, just scammers all the way.

I got one too, claiming to be from Visa, asking for £600. Total scam, obviously. Watch out for this trick!

I got a call saying that £600 was charged to my Visa card and if I hadn’t done it, I should press 1 to talk to someone about fixing it. I just ended the call straight away since I don’t even have a Visa card.

Absolutely a scam. They try to get you to call back by pressing 1, which is a really expensive number. After that, I bet they’ll ask for your VISA details and PIN to steal your money. Stay well clear of these people!

Complete rubbish, honestly. Don’t pay any mind to it, people!

This number keeps ringing me about my Visa card, really annoying! I want to report it for bothering me.

Definately a scam, don't trust it!

£600 has disappeared from my visa card and when I called back, some Indian bloke picked up claiming to be from BT broadband.
