02081490744 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 02081490744 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance linked to aggressive scam calls purporting to represent council or housing association repair teams. Callers often display poor knowledge of local areas, push for personal information, and become hostile if challenged. Many recipients are private tenants or homeowners with no ties to social housing. The number has been associated with repeated calls throughout the day, no voicemail messages, and frequent hang-ups when questioned. Despite some claims of legitimate council collaboration, the overwhelming consensus among users is that this is a fraudulent operation targeting individuals to obtain sensitive information. It is strongly advised to avoid answering, never share personal details, and block the number immediately to prevent harassment.

Got a call from what sounded like a busy call centre, they said they were from the Housing Association for the Council, asking about any damages. Turned out to be another scam, so best just to block it and not reply.

I got a call supposedly about fixing stuff for social housing, but I don't live in any social housing. Played along for a bit and then they cottoned on I was messing with them. After that, they started shouting and being rude. Definitely a dodgy scam, with some nasty folks on the other end. Best to block them or just mess with their time if you can.

They kept ringing me and were quite pushy, demanding info about where I used to live. When I wouldn’t give any details, they started arguing that they had the right to ask such stuff. Got pretty annoying and a bit aggressive, so in the end, I had no choice but to block the number.

They do house repairs through "The Council" or something like that. Funny thing is, they had no clue where I actually lived.

I keep getting calls from these people who say they’re connected to the council, but they’re just cold calling to bother you. When I asked them which council they claimed to be with, the woman said something about working with every council to check housing repairs. Problem was, she couldn’t even tell me what area I live in. Definitely don’t share any personal details with them!

Got a call from a bloke with a heavy Asian accent the other day. When I told him he’d got the wrong person, he immediately insisted he was calling the right number. I kept asking him a few questions but didn’t give any details about myself. When I pressed him to say which housing council area he was from, he got really dodgy and started getting a bit rude because I wasn’t going along with the chat.

I kept getting calls from a woman with an Asian accent, saying something about repairs to my place. When I asked where she found my number, she just wouldn’t say and sounded pretty condescending when I asked what repairs she meant. She insisted I was a council tenant, which I definitely am not, and when I refused to give any info about my home, she just ended the call. Had a few calls like this so I’ve now put them on my block list.

Thing is, I’m a private renter, not with any housing association. They even knew my name, which creeped me out a bit. I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number now.

Got a call from this number, woman introduced herself as "Amy" asking if we had damp problems because apparently loads of homes have gone downhill since the Covid situation. Immediately sounded fishy to me, but I played along and asked her which council she was with. She dodged the question at first, saying they’re a government-funded group that works independently of councils. Then she suddenly said something about the City of London Corporation - funny enough, we used to live there more than 20 years ago. Obviously, I’ve blocked this number now.

Be careful, this is a housing repairs scam. I've seen comments saying these callers are legit and connected to the Council, but that's just not the case. They ring up out of the blue pretending to be government contractors and say they have access to some central database of social housing tenants. Neither of those things are true. They try to get you to send over a copy of your ID and other personal details so they can supposedly handle a claim on your behalf. I actually work in housing for a London Council, so I can assure you this is fake.

Got a call while I was down in south Wales, but the number showed up as London on the caller ID which made me a bit uneasy. The person said they were from a housing association and wanted to ask about damp issues at my place. I told them I’m just renting privately and asked them to take me off their call list, but before I could finish, they just quickly ended the call.

Got a call from some scammer claiming it was about my “tenancy agreement” - which is weird since I own my place. Then they started talking about me being entitled to a new kitchen! When I asked if they actually had a copy of my tenancy agreement (which I don’t even have, since I’m the owner) and said it would usually be between tenant and landlord, they just dropped the call. Honestly, best thing seems to be stringing them along for as long as you can to waste their time.

I didn't answer their call at first, so I decided to ring back. It was actually a legitimate housing firm working alongside the Council. The person I spoke with told me they step in when there’s an issue with your home, like if it’s in poor condition or not hygienic. Just thought I’d share this since the rep also mentioned they get lists of numbers from the “Operator by zone” for marketing purposes, which is a bit annoying :(
