02083097260 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 02083097260 👆 is reported as a persistently annoying and unwanted caller frequently linked to a scam operation posing as "Benefits UK." Callers often display aggressive or evasive behaviour, sometimes using false personal details or a variety of caller numbers to avoid blocking. They commonly attempt to elicit personal information, frequently exhibiting foreign accents, and may hang up when questioned. Many have experienced multiple daily calls over weeks, causing frustration and concern about harassment. Calls are often silent or disconnected when answered, and despite efforts to block or report, the problem persists. It is widely advised not to answer these calls to avoid confirming your number as active, which can lead to even more nuisance calls. Reporting through official channels like Ofcom is recommended, though enforcement remains limited.

Even though I haven't picked up my landline in about 5 years, it keeps ringing non stop. We only keep it because the broadband deal includes it. No one ever bothers to answer anymore, even if you’re right beside the phone. These calls are clearly unwanted and annoying. Honestly, it’s about time some authority like the government stepped in to put an end to this nonsense.

I keep getting calls from Benefits UK, usually it's an Asian person answering, often with names like Emma or Marcus - which seems a bit odd for their background. Despite the government promising to put a stop to these, they just keep on coming. Honestly, it’s rubbish. If you pick up, be ready for even more pestering calls. My advice? Rather than hang up straight away, have a bit of a laugh and mess with them!

I’m actually relieved I didn’t pick up when this number rang on my landline on the 27th September at 5:29pm. It’s popped up twice now, first time being on the 21st at about 4:39pm. When I did answer then, the person knew my name but got my address and postcode completely wrong. I corrected them and quickly ended the call. Glad I didn’t waste more time on it this time round.

I haven't picked up my landline in about five years, but it keeps ringing regardless. We only still have it because our broadband deal includes the phone line. Even when I'm right next to it, no one bothers to answer anymore, so it’s clear these calls aren’t wanted at all. Honestly, something needs to be done about this kind of harassment, maybe the government could step in and put a stop to it.

I got a call from a bloke named Michael claiming to be from Benefits UK. I told him I'd already dealt with him before and made it clear we’re on the TPS, so he should remove my number. These companies ring you constantly, day in and day out - it's just ridiculous. Honestly, they need to be cracked down on and stopped from pestering people like this.

They actually got my name right, but as soon as I started acting a bit dodgy, they just ended the call!

Honestly, just don't pick up - they're just pushy harassers. If you do, the person on the other end will hear their usual annoying spiel, and worse, ringing back means you’re showing your number is active. That info usually ends up being traded around loads more spam callers, so you'll only get flooded with even more rubbish calls down the line.

So, yesterday someone phoned me saying they were from Benefits UK. I told them straight there’s no organisation like that and gave them a piece of my mind about them and their country. She didn’t like it one bit and just ended the call.

For weeks now, this company Benefits UK has been ringing me nonstop, like every single day. I've tried reporting them to Ofcom, but nothing's changed. I even warned them I'd involve the police since it's starting to feel like harassment, but they just keep going.

I keep getting calls from this number and a few others, always saying something about benefits UK. I've blocked them on every phone I have but it doesn’t stop. The last time I answered, I told the caller I've reported them, but she just went on and on so I ended up hanging up. Does anyone know where I can report these nuisance calls properly? I’m really sick of it all now.

Just like everyone else here, they keep calling me from numbers that are just a bit different each time. I end up blocking them, but it’s getting so annoying I’ve stopped answering altogether. Really wish there was something to put an end to this Benefits UK nonsense!

They rang me again just now. I flipped it and said we were the ones selling double glazing, asked if they were interested - and guess what? They hung up straight away! I’m thinking of blocking the number now, probably a bit pointless but might as well give it a shot. Other than that, I’m not gonna bother picking up anymore calls from them.

Had another call earlier today, this was the second time I got one this morning. I blocked the first number but they keep ringing from loads of different ones so it feels pointless to block them all. Now I just don’t pick up if I don’t know who it’s from. It’s so annoying, they should really be stopped somehow. It’s not unusual to get like four calls in one day. The first one came through just after 8.30 when I was still trying to sleep in.

Got a call from someone claiming to be Benefits UK just wanting a quick question. Naturally, they tried to verify all my info (seemed like a phishing attempt). When I asked to talk to a manager because this was their fourth call and I already told them to take me off their list, they just hung up.

Benefits UK is just one of many numbers that keep ringing me. For the past month, I've been getting these calls almost every morning. They mostly try to fish for my personal info and the people on the line often speak with foreign accents. Lately, they've started getting quite rude too.

This number keeps ringing me, but nobody says a word when I answer. I ended up yelling into a loud whistle just to be heard. Honestly, I hope whoever’s behind it ends up with a headache or something!

Had a similar thing happen, just like someone else said here before. The caller had a South Asian accent and only asked if I was me before I asked who it was. The moment I pressed for more info, he just hung up on me. If this is that Benefits UK lot again, they definitely seem to be ringing from loads of different numbers, so keep your guard up.

I got a call from someone claiming to be from Benefit UK but he had a strong Indian/Pakistani accent and I couldn't really get what he was saying. So, I just ended the call and blocked the number on my BT blacklist.
