02037019257

I’m absolutely fed up with this pesky 020 number that keeps ringing me. I’ve blocked it, yet the calls just won’t stop! The number in question is 02037019267. Can’t believe it!

I've been receiving calls from this number since December 2015, and it’s always been sporadic-just a handful of times. However, today it rang my phone a staggering eight times at the strangest of hours! I’ve finally had enough; it’s getting blocked immediately! 😨

Earlier today, I received a call from this number, and when I picked up, it was some girl from India attempting to reel me into some lottery scheme. Quite the unexpected conversation, to say the least!

Quite an intrusive woman on the line, I must say. - Number: 02037019257

I received a call earlier today from these folks claiming that someone had won an iPad and had listed my number as a point of contact! I was genuinely over the moon and found it quite astonishing that someone would use my digits instead of theirs to claim a prize. In my sheer excitement, I must’ve rambled on a bit too much because the chap on the other end abruptly ended the call! What a pity.

I’ve just received a call moments ago. Didn’t bother picking up, and I certainly won't be answering unless they resort to extreme measures! If they do, I’ll certainly let them know what I think of their antics.

I received a call claiming I had signed up for a competition to snag an iPad, which is quite amusing since I’ve never entered such a thing. I do recall seeing adverts that raised my suspicions, so I wisely steered clear of them. Then, rather bizarrely, the caller switched gears entirely, forgetting all about the iPad, and started blabbering on about how I could boost my lottery odds with a fantastic offer of 20 tickets. Here’s the catch: I wasn’t being gifted these tickets; I had to subscribe to some kind of monthly payment plan at £20. It’s painfully obvious that this is a scam! I’d strongly advise anyone to steer clear of any engagement with these individuals - the number I was called from is 02037019257.

Non-stop lottery con - phone number: 020 3701 9257

I received a staggering seven calls from this number yesterday, and they just keep on coming! I'm hesitant to pick up as I haven't a clue who’s on the other end. Any advice would be greatly appreciated-thank you! - caller: 02037019257

I'm relieved I stumbled upon this since I was pondering whether it was a dodgy deal or not. I've been receiving calls and messages from an Asian woman, which makes me suspect it's a scam. I guess if it appears overly beneficial, it’s likely to be just that - too good to be true. - Caller: Lotto Social

I've received six calls from 0203 7019257 today but chose not to pick up. Then, a different number, 0161 2448137 called me, claiming I had entered a competition for either an iPad or £10,000, which I definitely haven't. Alarm bells went off when they mentioned they had my email address-a hacked account from about five years back that I had to shut down. The person on the line claimed to be from 'LOTTO SOCIAL' and was pushing me to register for lottery tickets and share my bank details. I told them I'd research the company before making any commitments. In my search, I stumbled upon this site and noted how many others had similar experiences, including calls from Indian women. Upon recognising the 0203 number here, I checked my call log and, sure enough, there it was. I feel compelled to alert others to the fact that they're also using various numbers. Is the 0161 code from Manchester? The more I delved into this company, the more I realised it's best to steer clear of them. Strangely enough, they had my name too, which makes me wonder how they obtained that information-quite unsettling! While I was penning this, another call came through from 0161 2448150. That makes three different numbers but a total of seven calls this afternoon-absolutely ridiculous! - the caller: Lotto Social.

Oh, what a familiar tale! Had a rather impolite individual ring me up, adamant that I had entered some farcical competition to bag either an iPad or a cool ten grand. I queried if they were daft, as it’s rather obvious that an iPad hardly equates to a ten-thousand-pound prize! I made it clear that I hadn’t signed up for any of these ridiculous contests. Then they rattled on about some lottery nonsense. I bluntly mentioned that I’m not a lottery player and have zero interest in it. Would you believe the audacity of them asking why? Clearly, a straightforward "no" wasn’t good enough for them. I reiterated my firm refusal and promptly ended the call.

What a bunch of plonkers! Just got a call claiming I'd won the lottery. Total nonsense!

A couple of weeks back, I found myself inundated with texts from LottoByText, PrizeFun, and those pesky FREEMSG notifications. To be honest, it left me feeling quite perplexed, especially since I've never entered any competitions online - so I was concerned these unsolicited messages might be racking up costs on my account. So, I did a bit of digging and discovered that responding to these numbers can indeed be pricey. Instead of just blocking them, which I was warned might still leave me on the hook for charges, I decided to send a text with ‘STOP’. Almost immediately, I got a reply confirming that I’d been opted out of any future competitions. Along the way, I stumbled upon advice about sending a ‘DROP’ message if you wanted to avoid calls, but I opted for 'STOP' instead. I had a nagging feeling that ‘DROP’ might just be a sneaky way to keep the subscription going. While I've not received any more texts since then, I did get a call from them. I chose to ignore it and was surprised that the same number called again today. If it rings through again, part of me is tempted to pick up just to figure out how they managed to get my details. So, for anyone else who has answered such calls - particularly from the number 020 3701 9257 - could you shed some light on whether answering or receiving these calls incurs any charges? Your insights would be invaluable!

I just saw the number and promptly ended the call; they've attempted to reach me roughly three times over the past week.

Had a right nuisance with Social Lotto the other day! I let them know I was busy with work, but they simply wouldn’t take no for an answer. Eventually, I lost my temper and swore at them to make them stop. The number 02037019257 is now firmly blocked. - caller: 02037019257 Social Lotto

Total scam - something about the lottery. I've hit the block button! - Caller: Lottery

Received a call from this number but couldn’t pick up.

I received a phone call from this number, but the line was incredibly fuzzy, making it difficult to comprehend what the caller was saying. Unfortunately, I couldn’t make out who it was at all.

Just like many others, I've been hounded by these callers incessantly, despite my attempts to block their number and my clear requests for them to cease their calls. They keep asserting that I entered some competition, bombarding me with questions that don’t sit right, like asking who I am and if I’m over the age of 16. I flatly refused to engage and challenged them with, “How can I trust that you are who you claim to be?” They insisted, “We're not fishing; we have your details.” I repeated my demand for them to stop contacting me. It’s somewhat reassuring, albeit ever so slight, to know that I’m not the only one plagued by these persistent nuisance calls.

I received a rather curious call from someone who seemed to know my full name and enquired whether my parents were present. It's quite unsettling, to say the least. I’m wondering what steps I ought to take next. The number was 02037019257. Any advice would be much appreciated!

I received a call from someone claiming to be looking for a chap named Steven, but wouldn’t reveal his identity when I inquired. Instead, he arrogantly insisted on knowing who I was. I put him in his place, saying, "Excuse me, you called ME! You’re in no position to interrogate me. I have every right to know who’s on the other end of the line. Now kindly DO ONE and don't bother ringing this number again!" It was rather amusing, to be honest! 😂

I've received a couple of calls from a company named 'Lotto Social'-or at least that’s what the recorded message claimed when I decided to ring them back (I dialled 141 before my number, hoping to bypass any hurdles and reach an actual operator, since I had a hunch they might recognise it). They’ve reached out to me twice now, both during the afternoon-one at 18:19 and another at 13:31. So, it’s definitely a case of Lotto Social making their presence known!

I've received no fewer than five calls from a person claiming to be from the Euro Millions lottery syndicate. It’s been rather persistent, to say the least!

I received a ring from Lotto Social today, and the chap on the other end shared his business number along with an email address for a chance to clinch a EuroMillions win. He even mentioned his name!

Received a rather unpleasant call from a firm known as Lotto-Social. The individual on the other end was exceedingly presumptuous, adamantly claiming I’d entered some competition and had won an iPad. When I expressed my disinterest, their tone shifted dramatically, and they abruptly hung up on me. It's painfully clear that this is a scam operation. Moreover, the background noise resembled a pre-recorded loop, aimed at creating the illusion of a bustling call centre. They bombard me with calls at least four to five times daily, occasionally as late as 10 or 11 in the evening. - caller: Lotto-Social.

I picked up the phone, and the caller immediately asked for (My Name). When I replied with “speaking,” they proceeded to say they were reaching out regarding a competition I supposedly entered for a chance to win either an Apple iPad or a whopping £10,000 in cash. To be honest, I don’t recall entering any such competition, and it seems rather odd to offer those two prizes-surely everyone would choose the ten grand, as the iPad pales in comparison! Just found it a bit fishy. - number: 020 3701 9257

Today, I got a call from the same number and, regrettably, I was unable to answer as I'm deaf. It’s been on my mind ever since I recalled all those freebie sites I’ve registered with, although I can’t quite remember signing up for anything specifically. It feels like everyone is ringing me up about fake lotteries or those freebie deals. I'm beginning to suspect they’re selling my personal information to other companies as well. I’ll definitely be more cautious moving forward. The caller ID said Unknown, but it's tough for me to pick up the phone when I can't hear. Just trying to dig up more details about this number online.

I've received a few calls from the Social Lottery, and I must say, their attitude has been rather rude and even a touch overbearing. The woman I dealt with today just wouldn’t take no for an answer, despite my attempts to clarify that I had already spoken to someone yesterday and ended up having to terminate the call. It’s quite distressing, and one can only hope that no unsuspecting individuals fall prey to these pushy callers. - Caller: Social Lottery Euromillions

I keep receiving calls from this number! Being only 15, I can't even fathom how I might fall for any of these dodgy scams. - Caller: 020 3701 9257

Over the last few days, I've received five phone calls-at times, I didn't even realise my phone was ringing, and on other occasions, I dismissed the calls while I had my device in hand. It's a bit baffling how they obtained my information, but if they happen to ring again, I won't hesitate to decline the call once more.

Received a rather peculiar call today from a woman who was insisting I had won a share of the EuroMillions. She knew my name, which left me scratching my head since my number isn’t linked to any social media accounts, and my phone contract’s in my mum’s name. I’ve had five calls in total! Out of curiosity, I asked a friend to ring the number using his phone, concealing his number with 141. When he did, a recorded message informed him that he was “now through to Lesotho," after which the phone just rang and he decided to hang up. If anyone has a clue as to how this company might have gotten hold of my name, I’d really appreciate your insights! - caller: 020 3701 9257

I've been receiving persistent calls and really confrontational messages, despite informing the lady on the line that I wished to be taken off their list. Seriously disrespectful, especially considering I'm only 16 and have no clue how they even obtained my number in the first place - number: 02037019257.

I keep getting bombarded with pushy calls from this number regarding some Lotto entry nonsense. It's absolutely dreadful, and I really wish they’d just quit it! - caller: 020 3701 9257

I've been bombarded with incessant phone calls at all hours, both day and night. The number belongs to 02037019257, and it's becoming utterly vexatious.

Received a couple of calls recently, and it seemed to be the same lass - her voice was a bit like that of a youngling. 😕

I received a missed call from this number, but instead of picking up, I decided to look it up first. Scammers really get on my nerves - what a bunch of rotters!

I've been getting calls from this number repeatedly over the past few days, and today I finally decided to pick up. On the other end was a woman with a thick Indian accent, inquiring about someone I’d never even heard of. When I told her I had no clue who she was talking about, she asked for my name! I shot back that it was none of her concern and probed her about where she was calling from. Her response was a bit garbled, but it sounded something like "loxo social." However, from what I've gathered from others, it was likely 'lotto.' I promptly ended the call and blocked the number. Fingers crossed it’s the last I hear from them!

I received a call from this number while I was stuck in my maths class-I’m just 14, after all. Unfortunately, I couldn't take the call then. Later on, during my break, I answered, and it turned out to be a young lady with an Indian accent asking for me. When I asked who she was looking for, she repeated my name, which immediately made me think it might be some sort of prank. I couldn’t help but poke fun at her voice, suggesting that anyone could put on a silly accent and ring me up for a laugh. She replied with something I didn’t quite catch before the line went dead. When I tried to ring the number back, it didn’t connect at all. Now, I’m feeling a bit anxious because I worry they might have figured out who I am-especially since my phone’s contract is under my dad’s name. Usually, when people call me, they ask for him, but these folks knew my name! - caller: 02037019257

Avoid engaging with these con artists at all costs! - caller: 02037019257

I've received two calls from this number over the past week, and to be honest, I’m quite baffled by it. The line was filled with a fair bit of background noise, and the woman on the other end spoke at a breakneck pace (she definitely knew my name, though). I attempted to explain, "I'm Italian and having a hard time grasping the reason for your call," but alas, it seemed like she wasn't hearing me. She sounded rather irritated by my confusion. In the end, I had to terminate the call with a simple, "I’m not interested." - Caller: 02037019257

Has it actually done the trick? Have those calls finally ceased?

Did this actually do the trick?

I've been inundated with calls from 020 3701 9257, ringing me five to seven times a day over the past few days. They keep insisting they can help me win a fortune on the lottery, and despite my repeated refusals, they just won’t take ‘no’ for an answer. It’s quite unsettling to discover they already had my personal information, like my phone number, email, and even my full name. They went so far as to request my bank details, and after I hung up, they continued to pester me with calls. I can't stress enough: don’t share any personal or banking information with them! I've decided to block their number as their constant calls felt more like harassment than anything else. I believe the company behind this is Social Lotto. Beware of this number: 020 3701 9257!

Cease your incessant calls, or I shall have no choice but to seek legal action against you. This is regarding the number 07599737017.

I've noticed that someone’s got hold of my digits from Facebook, which is rather concerning since I’ve set my profile to be exclusively viewable by friends. The reason I suspect this is that I use a nickname alongside my dad's surname to maintain a level of anonymity. The only folks who know my actual name are my mates and those I’ve personally encountered. Is there any way to put an end to these persistent calls? - caller: 02037019257

I was inundated with these calls, so I eventually decided to pick up. A rather curt lady with an Indian accent was on the line. When I mentioned that I don't partake in gambling, she persisted with, "But you used to gamble, didn’t you?" - the number was 020 3701 9257.

Once again, that impolite woman has given me a ring! The name of their firm is Lotto Social. I've also lodged a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office about this. - Caller: 02037019257 Lotto Social

I received a call from this number earlier today but unfortunately couldn’t pick up as I was occupied. They've only just tried to reach me again, so I figured it might be something noteworthy since spam callers usually don’t bother trying a second time. When I finally answered, though, the line was silent and all I could hear was a series of beeping noises. Quite peculiar, really!

I've had this chap, Brad (wish I'd heard him right, thought he was saying Bread), ringing me non-stop for a bit now, both during my school hours and after. He keeps banging on about the Euromillions, but I’ve just been cutting the calls short by hanging up. Ever since then, my phone won’t stop buzzing! Quick question though, am I likely to incur any charges for picking up since he’s not calling from a UK number? Cheers! - caller: 020 3701 9257

This number keeps ringing me despite the fact that I've informed them I'm just a 16-year-old girl. - caller: 02037019357

I observed my friend explicitly tell the gentleman on the line that she had no interest in the Euro Millions Syndicate. However, he persisted in trying to win her over with his sales pitch. I eventually took the call myself and informed him that he was indeed harassing Meryl Kara, who wanted nothing to do with his pitch, and warned him that if he carried on, we might have to involve the law. His response was dismissive-something along the lines of, “You’re not Meryl Kara.” I promptly hung up. This sort of harassment simply cannot be tolerated. - caller: Male from Euro Millions Syndicate

I received a rather cheeky text stating that the Social Lottery would ring me if I didn't respond with 'DROP.' Decided to ignore it, and sure enough, I got a call that same evening. I tried my usual tactic of asking the caller to “hang on a sec” - my go-to move for dodgy callers - and switched them over to speaker, continuing with my chores until they got fed up and hung up. The woman on the other end rather loudly informed me that I was foolishly wasting my own minutes by keeping her on the line before she abruptly disconnected. To add insult to injury, I then received two more calls from that same number last night while my phone was off, followed by a barrage of calls today at 10:48, 12:02, 12:56, 13:57, and 14:56 - all ignored on my part. Don’t they take a hint? It seems like this is definitely worth reporting to Ofcom, if you ask me. - from: Social Lotto

I'm receiving numerous calls regarding some lottery deal. - Caller: Lottery Company

I found myself tuning into what the chap from India was blathering on about, and I must confess, I became rather intrigued. While I was on the move, I politely requested that they send me some information via email, but to my surprise, he flatly refused, expressed his gratitude, and promptly disconnected the call. Absolutely a dodgy operation! Whatever you do, steer clear of sharing any personal information with them! - caller: Social Lottery

Received a couple of missed calls today, along with a text from this number. It appears to be linked to a firm called Lotto Social - and believe it or not, they claim they can assist you in snagging the EuroMillions jackpot! They were adamant that I had visited their website some months back and somehow submitted all my information, including my mobile number (which is a bit far-fetched if you ask me). Or, as they put it, “If you haven't, then someone must have shared your information with us.” A rather rude woman who identified herself as Sheryl nearly accused me of lying, which prompted me to return the sentiment and hang up. I've since blocked the number. While it looks like a UK number, the call actually connects to a call centre in India. - caller: 'Social Lotto'

This number keeps ringing me quite often. Thankfully, I always seem to miss the calls, but I really do wish there was a way to put an end to them.

I received a call from this number twice within the span of an hour on Tuesday, and then they rang me six times over five hours on the Wednesday that followed. I only picked up on the last attempt and gave them a piece of my mind, hoping they’ll take the hint and leave me alone. Now, I’m just biding my time to see if that does the trick.

I'm quite concerned, as a dodgy number has contacted my mate looking for me! How on earth did they connect his number to mine? - the caller was 020 3701 9257.

I received a call from this number and when I attempted to return the call, all I got was a never-ending recorded message. I'm left in the dark about who they could be. The name was indistinct, but I caught a whiff of "something social" - it was definitely a "? Social" on the other end.

I've had quite the experience-nine calls altogether! I managed to miss seven of them, but answered two. Each time, I firmly requested to be taken off their calling list. The last person I spoke to, however, was rather rude and seemed to take issue with how many times I claimed they’d called me. When I pointed out that they really had no business calling me in the first place, let alone disputing my clear "no thanks," she became quite confrontational. I believe she had a South African accent. The caller was from Social Lotto.

I've had this number ringing me non-stop since yesterday-about ten times, if I’m honest! I've managed to block them, though. It’s rather frustrating, isn't it? They just keep pestering you with their incessant calls!

An unusual lady, possibly of Indian descent, rang my mobile recently. She insisted that I had shown some interest in the Euromillions lottery, which was quite puzzling as I had no recollection of that at all. Despite her attempts to extend the conversation, I managed to wrap it up without creating too much of a scene. - Caller: ?Linked to Euromillions

I received a phone call from this number earlier, and the person on the other end said, "Good day, is this Bob Noodles?" Naturally, I replied with a quick no, as that's merely a pseudonym I employ when participating in surveys.

My phone keeps getting calls from that social lotto lot! I've had enough and blocked the number since I reckon it's just a massive con - the number's 020 3701 9257.

Getting calls three times a day now - it's a bit relentless, to say the least!

I’ve been getting calls from a rather abrasive woman, going by the name of Chantelle or perhaps Chanelle, for nearly a month now. It's always around the same hour, and quite frankly, it’s becoming rather tiresome. Most evenings I’ve taken to ignoring her calls altogether. Despite my attempts to get her to cease contacting me-whether it’s requesting her to remove my number, issuing vague threats about involving OFCOM, or simply expressing my annoyance-her persistence is baffling. She adamantly refuses to disclose the name of her company, nor any details that might aid in putting a stop to this nonsense. Since it’s clear she won’t be making a sale with her lottery tickets, I can only deduce that her company revels in causing distress and annoyance to others for no apparent reason. - number in question: 02037019257, something to do with a lottery, it seems?

I've been receiving nightly calls from a rather brusque lady who introduces herself as Chantelle or Chanelle. It's been around a month now, and the timing remains annoyingly consistent. I've reached the point where I typically ignore the calls because, despite my repeated requests for her to cease contacting me, along with firm warnings about involving regulatory bodies like OFCOM, she carries on with her rather aggressive manner. What's more troubling is her refusal to disclose any details about the company she represents-no name, no address, nothing that would help me put an end to these disturbances. Given that she’s clearly not going to convince me to buy any lottery tickets, one can only assume that her firm takes pleasure in harassing and upsetting individuals just for the sake of it. Last I checked, the number is 02037019257. What a nuisance!

A few days prior, I received a message, and shortly after, my phone rang with someone asking me if I'd like to participate in the Euro Millions lottery - the caller identified themselves as Euro Lottery.

I've had a similar experience with the number 02037019257, which has been persistently ringing both my phone and my partner's several times a day over the past few days. When I picked up one of their calls, I was met with a robotic voice rambling on about a lottery, which I promptly ended. We've taken the step of registering our mobile numbers with the Telephone Preference Service, as it proved effective in curbing the nuisance calls we received on our landline. Might be a good approach for others, too! - caller: 02037019257

Just like Helen mentioned, I got a call from 02037019257. I picked up the phone and, as it turned out, it was indeed the same old story. An Indian woman on the line attempting to rope me into their Euromillions syndicate. Anna was right; I reckon it’s one of those social lottery schemes. I decided to end the call and swiftly blocked the number on my phone. - Caller: Social lottery

I’ve been receiving a few calls throughout the day, and all that’s happening is someone repeatedly saying my name. Whenever I inquire about the reason for their calls, they simply hang up. Quite peculiar, to say the least!

I've been receiving numerous calls from this number throughout the day, yet they never leave a voicemail. Don’t be misled - 020 3 numbers aren’t genuine London landline calls like the 020 7 and 020 8 codes; they're typically budget-rate lines used by those incessant telemarketers and con artists. It’s best to ignore these calls entirely and not waste your time calling back. Just add them to your block list and be done with it!

We keep getting calls from this number, and it's becoming quite bothersome.

Social Lotto, you reckon? Give that number a bell after hours; a recorded message spills the beans on who it is. Just a thought: the caller’s identity might be linked to this Social Lotto business, but I can't say for certain!

It seems they operate as some kind of lottery group. When I expressed my disinterest, the young lady on the line became rather confrontational and rude. She even summoned her manager, making a fuss about my unwillingness to engage, completely forgetting to mute the phone-how careless! When I mentioned I might escalate the matter to Ofcom, the manager suddenly turned very courteous and wished me a pleasant evening, yet curiously refused to disclose the company's name once more. Quite dodgy, if you ask me! Definitely got the feeling they’re not on the up and up.

I've no idea who this person is, but they keep ringing and won’t pick up when I answer. When I attempted to ring them back, it just said, "sorry, calls to this number can’t be connected." Seems a bit shifty, if you ask me!
