Phone number ☎️ 02080509358 👆 is reported as a persistent and deceptive scam targeting businesses with claims of prior agreements to sponsor or donate to school-related charities, often involving anti-bullying or safety campaigns. Callers, frequently using female voices with northern or Midlands accents, pressure for payments around £200-£300, citing supposed benefits like tax deductions or logo placements on materials. They hang up abruptly when challenged or asked for proof and do not provide verifiable contact details. The scam employs cold calling, intimidation, and fake promises to extract money, with numerous reports of harassment and financial loss. Recipients are strongly advised not to engage, to block the number, and to report incidents to relevant authorities or use official channels for scam reporting, as this is a well-known fraudulent operation.
Reports on phone number 02080509358
3 yearsGot a call from a woman who gave her name as Karen Taylor, claiming to have news about some school assistance they said we were involved with before. We told her we weren’t sure we ever actually did anything with them and maybe didn’t earn their thanks. She promptly hung up. After looking the number up here, it became clear to us it was a scam. Honestly, wouldn’t mind shipping these scammers off to Putin’s Russia!Karen TaylorRussia3 yearsGot a call from this number saying I supposedly agreed to do a survey earlier this year, maybe February, and that books would be donated to a school I selected. The person on the phone said if I paid today, I could get a 30% discount and that paying the full amount of £279.00 would mean my company could reclaim up to 80% at the end of the financial year. They kept pushing me to pay right there and then. After hanging up, I looked up the number online and found out it’s actually a scam.3 yearsFRAUD ALERT - AVOID AT ALL COSTS!AVOID3 yearsI got a weird call from someone claiming they'd sent books to nearby schools and wanted payment upfront before they'd send them out. Feels a bit off, might be worth telling trading standards about it.3 yearsGot a call from someone with a Northern accent claiming they were checking up on £289 I supposedly donated for a school safety thing back in May. I told them I’d never given any money or even heard of it, and before I could say more, she just hung up. Total scammers!3 yearsThey said they were fundraising for a cause and talked about local schools, pretending to be a charity looking for donations.3 yearsThis number rang me earlier, but the call just dropped before we could chat. I always check who’s calling, and now I’m adding this one to my growing blocked list - got hundreds of them already!3 yearsI'm embarrassed to admit that I got caught out by this scam a couple of years back. The caller claims you've agreed to sponsor books for a nearby school, then you start getting postal bills and constant calls pushing for payment. Today, the same woman rang me again - exactly like others have mentioned here. I humoured her for a bit before telling her straight up how pointless and miserable her life must be. Because of this, I haven’t donated to any real charities since. Truly awful people.3 yearsI picked up the phone and heard a woman chatting with someone else, then she suddenly hung up. Definitely one of those cold calls. I've blocked the number now because I only want to take calls from people I actually want to talk to.3 yearsGot a call about sponsoring some school stuff, they said it had to do with my company and mentioned logos and all that. Seemed dodgy, especially since they were quoting info they got from the company website. Felt like a donation scam trying to lure me in. Watch out for these!3 yearsThey just don’t stop ringing me!3 yearsGot a call saying something about sponsoring fire safety books, they claimed it was set up for November and asked which school we wanted to send them to. Then they mentioned a £200+ invoice for something we never actually agreed on! Definitely a scam, watch out!3 yearsI received a call from someone who referred to me by my first name, inquiring about the homeowner. When I mentioned they weren’t available, the caller, who claimed to be Emily from an educational establishment, said she would send an email instead. When I tried to return the call, it prompted me to leave a message after the tone, but strangely, no tone ever sounded. It’s quite clear this is a scam, especially since we haven't shared any email addresses with anyone. Quite suspicious!Emily3 yearsDon't trust the number 02080509358. They called me up saying I pledged over £300 to a charity for kids who are bullied last year, which I never did. Then they said they were going to print my name on the back of some school magazine. Totally dodgy and really deceptive behaviour!3 yearsGot a call from a woman with a pretty clear English accent claiming to be from something called Education Support Awareness. She said my company had sponsored them last year and that our logo would be featured on the back of some anti-bullying campaign leaflet or book. When I asked her for more details, the line just went dead on me. Definitely felt like a scam.3 yearsThey’ve rung me three times already but just cut off the call as soon as I pick up. Sounds like one of those automated diallers. After reading other comments, guessing it’s best not to actually talk to them, but it’s still pretty irritating.3 yearsSo, this woman with a gentle northern accent rang me up talking about some schools campaign that supposedly finished and asked if I wanted to choose which school got the credits. She said the head teacher would ring me later, followed by some 5-star Facebook reviews popping up. Honestly, it felt like a proper con trick to trick you into paying an "early settlement" fee of £289. Definitely suspicious.Facebook3 yearsGot a call from a woman claiming to be Michelle Baker from some educational centre. She was going on about how some 'campaign' was really successful and asked me which school I wanted the books sent to. I told her I had no clue what she was on about and asked who her contact was. She said it was me, like it happened in January and that I was keen to help. I refused to give my email and said I’d ring back once I’d looked into it. Feels like a total scam to me.Michelle Baker3 yearsI’d avoid picking up if this number comes up. Got a call from a woman about school charity books or something, said they’d collected money or raised funds and wanted my info for the bill. She was talking about £299, which took me by surprise. She knew my name, which threw me off, I told her I had no clue what she meant. Then she said someone else would ring me later. Bit fishy if you ask me.3 yearsI simply told them to jog on and ended the call. Lovely experience!3 yearsI got a call from a landline number 0208 059 358, a lady named Emily on the line. She mentioned we supposedly registered for some anti-bullying booklet and asked which school it should be delivered to. Then she said an invoice for £289 was on its way to our company address and that it could be deducted from our taxes. I told her I didn’t remember ordering anything like that, and she just hung up on me.Emily3 yearsLeave me alone, 020 8050 9358, total nuisance!3 yearsTried ringing to speak to the director, but as soon as I said he wasn’t available they just cut the call. Then when I tried to find out who was calling, they ended the call again. Definitely seemed like a scam to me.3 yearsReceived a dodgy call on our business phone today; a woman with a Midlands twang claimed the managing director had registered us for some charity aimed at schools. *STEER CLEAR OF THIS!*Midlands3 yearsI got a call from 02080509358, a woman with a Midlands accent who said she was from a call centre. She asked to speak with the company’s MD and already had his name. I asked if she’d arranged a meeting first, which she hadn’t. Then she said it was about a charity event at a school we supposedly joined last year. When I didn’t buy it, she said she’d send an email to the MD instead. Definitely felt like a scam to me.MidlandsMD3 yearsGot a call from a woman saying I’d already consented to sponsor some books for a nearby school and that the invoice was ready for me to pay. Strange as I never agreed to anything like that!3 yearsThere was a campaign about road safety that involved the local primary school. The kids were taught all about how to cross the street properly and why it’s important to be careful near roads. It was really great to see the young ones learning so much about staying safe when they’re out and about.3 yearsSome woman was on the phone trying to get me to give money to a charity that didn’t sound quite right. Felt a bit dodgy to me.3 yearsGot a call from a woman with a really noticeable Midlands accent claiming to be from a school anti-bullying charity. She told me their "campaign" was over and now they were chasing a donation of £299 from me! She said I'd agreed to it back in December 2022. I told them I couldn't recall any of that and they said they'd send me a voice recording to prove it.Midlands3 yearsThis morning I got a call from a lady with a really strong Midlands accent, claiming to be from a school bullying charity. She said their "campaign" was over and now they were after a donation of £299! She said I'd apparently agreed to this back in December 2022, but I honestly don't recall any of it. I told her that, and now they’re going to send me a recording of my supposed agreement.Midlands3 yearsA lady rang up saying our company had supposedly agreed to help pay for school books and wanted to know where to send them, plus asked for payment. This is totally a con and a really nasty one too. Don’t fall for it, absolutely don’t trust her!3 yearsGot called by some dodgy bloke claiming to be from a charity for kids’ schools. When I asked for a copy of their book, they just cut off the call. I’m still figuring out how to keep these types talking longer to waste their time. Next time, I reckon I’ll put them on hold for a bit and then act like I can’t remember my card details - like, over and over. This is the third time they’ve rung me up now.3 yearsI received a call similar to what others have reported, claiming they had spoken to me before about dispatching an anti-bullying information pack to schools in my area, but bearing my branding. They inquired about where I wanted the invoice for £289 sent, or if I'd prefer, I could settle the payment over the phone and receive a £30 reduction. Quite an intriguing proposition, isn’t it?3 yearsGot a call just like that recently, but it was about fire safety instead of the road safety one. Such disgusting pests, honestly.3 yearsSo I got a call from a woman saying she was with some charity, telling me we'd already consented to buying books for schools and that they're ready now. I told her no, we never agreed to that. She said she'd pass it on to the queries department.3 yearsA person called saying we were backing some anti-bullying leaflet, which we weren't. I told them several times that we had nothing to do with it, then they just cut me off.3 yearsGot a dodgy call saying we’d signed up as a company to back an Anti-Bullying initiative for local primary schools. They rattled off names of schools nearby that we supposedly teamed up with, then demanded £199, claiming it was due since the campaign had finished last year and we’d agreed to it ages ago. Nearly got caught out until they asked for my bank info - whatever you do, don’t hand over any personal details!3 yearsGot a call while I was at work from someone claiming they wanted us to sponsor a school’s safeguarding book campaign. They said a couple of nearby schools had been waiting much longer than others and that we owed £199 as per some arrangement (which was never made). I asked for an email with the info and a ‘Susanne Taylor’ promised she’d send it - but never did. The call came from 02080509358. Watch out for this one!Susanne Taylor3 yearsMaybe she should sort out her own driving before pointing fingers at others.3 yearsGot a call about some anti-bullying thing supposedly set for November, but we never gave the green light on that. Feels like a scam to me. Hope nobody gets caught out by it!3 years02080509358 rang me saying they were involved in a road safety awareness project backing schools. I supposedly backed them last year and now they were gonna bill me £195.00. Complete rubbish! She even insisted they had a tape of me agreeing to pay up. When I asked them to email it over, she got proper rude. Absolute con artists, the worst kind. They seriously need to find something better to do.3 yearsTo help tackle scammers and weirdos, every call you get should be reported. Just text the number and any info about the call to 7726. If loads of people flag the same number, the phone networks put a warning up for it. Don’t bother reporting legit business calls though. If you get dodgy texts, forward them straight to 7726. For scam emails or screenshots of texts with dodgy links or attachments, send them over to '[email protected]'. And if these scammers somehow have your bank details, let your bank know right away and ring the police on 03001232040 too.3 yearsGot calls from some dodgy lot claiming a dead family member gave permission for something. Proper scams if you ask me.3 yearsWhat a total pain, just wasted my time for nothing!3 yearsAbsolutely disgusting scammers, don’t trust them for a second.3 yearsTotal rip off!3 yearsWatch out for these con artists! Don’t let yourself get tricked by these scammers.3 yearsI got a call to my workplace from 02080509358, and they asked for me by name. The caller said they were Nicola Morgan from the Education Support Centre nearby, but then they just stopped talking and hung up. Reading through other reviews here, it sounds like quite a few people have had similar experiences with this number.Nicola MorganEducation Support Centre3 yearsYet another nuisance call has come through!3 yearsTotal rip off - didn’t hand over a penny. This woman just kept going on about raising cash for some school kids or whatever. Complete load of rubbish.3 yearsI asked for their name a couple of times and then they just ended the call. Blocked them straight away.3 yearsAbsolutely a deceptive operation! They claim to be a charitable organisation focused on children's education and road safety literature. I fell for it initially, but thankfully I was able to contact my bank and halt the payment while also getting my card replaced. Just a heads up-many might not have the same fortune, so do exercise caution!3 yearsToday, 19/06/23, I got a call from 02080509358 saying I had previously donated and asking which school I wanted to support. The funny thing is, I’ve got a sharp memory and have never given to any school apart from my local one in Birchgrove, Cardiff. When I challenged the woman, who spoke with a Lancashire accent, asking where on earth she’d popped up from, she said she was offended. I told her to go back where she came from! It’s shocking what tricks these people use to try and squeeze money out of unsuspecting folks.BirchgroveCardiffLancashire3 yearsTotally a scam, no doubt about it! I got a call from a woman with a British accent, saying thanks for backing local schools. I told her I never did that and that she must be mistaken. She just hung up on me right away!3 yearsThey tried telling me I owed money for some plan I supposedly agreed to, but I never signed up for anything like that.3 yearsThere was this woman laughing in the background before they just suddenly cut the call.3 yearsSounds like a scam to me. They claimed I’d agreed to back fire safety books for schools, saying they were already printed and I had to pay up. Totally awful, watch out for this!3 yearsBEWARE, IT'S A CON! This caller insisted he had a conversation with me a while back... He claimed that I had pledged to contribute funds to an initiative aimed at combating bullying in schools...3 yearsThose calls were total rip offs.3 yearsWarning: This is total rubbish. They say they chatted with you a couple of months back and that you supposedly promised to help some made-up school-related scheme. Absolutely a con.3 yearsThose scam folks are so bloody annoying!3 yearsHad a call from 02080509358. The lady on the line wanted to speak to our managing director, claiming she’d enrolled us in some anti-bullying campaign for schools. Oddly, the number looked like it was from London but her accent was clearly from Manchester! Total scam, I’d say. She kept insisting we’d signed up back in November 2022, which is absolute rubbish. We run this as a family business, so I know exactly what we’ve done. Once I called her out on it, she hung up rather fast. Watch out for these sorts of calls!LondonManchester3 yearsThey tried telling us we’d agreed to a service we never actually signed up for.3 yearsThey said they were from the local schools, but when I asked them to send an email instead, they just cut me off. Definitely a scam.3 yearsGot a call from these lot, saying they’d spoken to someone and now want to get back to me. Complete scam, just trying to get cash.
