Reports on phone number 02081147001
7 monthsMy partner got a call, he picked up but the call ended right away. After that, he found out he was charged 50p just for answering. He definitely didn’t ring them back, he never dials numbers he doesn’t know. EE won’t help or give the money back. I believed they had tech to block scam calls or redirect them. Now, EE claim he must’ve sent a text somehow, which he absolutely didn’t. From what I've seen, best thing is just to let these calls drop to voicemail or simply don’t pick up at all.EE11 monthsNoticed some weird extra fees on my phone bill linked to this number. Definitely a dodgy scam, trying to figure out how to get my cash back from whoever's behind this.2 yearsI took part in a text-in competition linked to this number. Sent in two entries and got charged £2 each time. It was all fine, and I never felt the need to ring them back.3 yearsI've noticed some unexpected charges popping up on my phone bill - feels like a right scam to me!3 yearsThey attempted to charge us 15p on multiple occasions. It's definitely a con!3 yearsI got billed twice for £2 and then twice more for 19p all in one go by 02081147001! Proper annoying, seems like they charged me multiple times at exactly the same moment.3 yearsI got a call from 02081147001 but they just hung up straight away. When I rang back, I found out I’d been charged 14p for some kinda “competition service”. Definitely some kind of scam going on here!4 yearsI’ve noticed a hefty charge of almost £90 from this number on my account. Being a lone parent, it’s really tough for me to part with that kind of cash. Is there any way I can get my money back? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!4 yearsI received a call from this number but didn’t pick up, yet they’ve somehow managed to charge me £4.50. I’ve now blocked them, fingers crossed it works! Please put an end to this nonsense.5 yearsI didn't receive a call from this number, but my husband recently made a contribution to Soccer Aid, and this number appeared on our statement. There were two charges: one for £0.15 and another for £5.00.7 yearsI had no idea this company was even a thing. I've reached out to put a halt to these payments, but I'm at a bit of a loss as to how to actually do it!8 yearsI've noticed three charges of £2 each and three additional charges of 10p. After giving Virgin a ring, they provided me with a number to contact in order to get those fees back. They also suggested sending a text saying STOP to 84902 to opt-out of this ridiculous situation. It's baffling as I never agreed to any subscription in the first place!VirginSTOP8 yearsI noticed some charges listed for care@fonix on my account after I visited their site. It seems there was a subscription linked to Capital Radio for text alerts about monthly competitions. I've sent a text with 'stop' to 83958 and received confirmation that it's all been cancelled.Capital Radio8 yearsThey billed me for a phone call!8 yearsI've been slapped with a series of mysterious charges labelled as "premium texts," and they’ve nearly doubled my phone bill! After trying to get answers from Virgin Mobile, who were utterly unhelpful and claimed they couldn’t pinpoint the source or block these pesky charges, I decided to terminate my contract with them as soon as it was up. Interestingly, once I called to cancel, they suddenly revealed that it was a company called Fonix raking in the money for some game and shopping lines. They mentioned that, theoretically, they could block these pesky charges now, but if I wanted to reclaim any of my hard-earned cash, I had to ring a 0208 number to sort that mess out! Safe to say, I’ll be switching providers without a doubt - untrustworthy!Virgin MobileFonix8 yearsI've been noticing some peculiar deductions from my account - £8.33 taken twice over the span of two days. It only caught my eye when I checked my phone bill, leaving me utterly baffled - what on earth are they billing me for? I've never signed up for any services, nor have I purposefully engaged in anything that would warrant these charges. I've thought about calling the number, but it just leads me to a voicemail, which is no use at all! My service provider claims they can't block these deductions either. I'm genuinely anxious about my next bill and completely in the dark regarding the why and how of these mysterious charges. I haven’t received anything in return for this money, and I'm at a loss on how to get to the bottom of it or put an end to it! Any advice would be greatly appreciated!8 yearsI was billed £2.00 for a message that I never received! I've attempted to call the number, but it just leads me to a voicemail. I've reached out to my mobile provider, but unfortunately, they aren't able to block these pesky calls either.9 yearsI'm absolutely livid with this firm! They keep calling only to cut the line and leave you with the bill. It's utterly ridiculous!9 yearsThis is definitely a scam! They've been taking £4.50 from me every week. They claim that to unsubscribe, I need to text something to a number, but when I try to send "STOP," it just doesn’t go through. Quite frustrating!11 yearsI’ve discovered that the number belongs to a firm named Fonix, operating out of London. It appears they have connections to various charitable organisations. This info was gleaned from Phone Pay Plus.FonixLondon11 yearsWe've spotted some puzzling charges on our phone bill.
