02088199789 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 02088199789 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance involving frequent calls - often multiple times daily - from callers claiming to represent Microsoft, House and Home, or survey companies. Recipients experience silent calls, aggressive behaviour, and demands for personal information, despite being on the Telephone Preference Service or ex-directory. Many report rude or threatening responses when refusing to engage. Calls often involve requests to confirm identity or home details, but no clear purpose is given, causing distress especially for older individuals. The number is linked to scams, including bogus technical support and potential financial fraud. Blocking the number or using call filtering services offers some relief, but the issue remains widespread and troubling, with calls continuing unabated. Vigilance and avoidance of sharing personal details are strongly advised.

It showed up as an international call even though 020 is a London number - pretty strange right? Easiest way to handle it is to just say you’re not the person they’re asking for, tell them you’ll go get them, then just put the phone down and don’t pick it up till they give up. It wastes their money and you don’t have to deal with anything. They usually never call again after that.

02088199789 kept ringing me up four times today but when I picked up, there was nothing, just silence or some weird noises and then quiet again. Looking at other reviews, some folks said calls were from House and Home or even pretending to be Microsoft. It's crazy no one's shut these scammers down yet! This isn’t just annoying, it’s quite unsafe too!

I receive a call from this number every day without fail. The person on the other end identifies himself as Charlie and claims to be calling regarding my computer. Clearly annoyed, I hang up the phone. On another occasion, my wife picked up the call and this Charlie person proceeded to give our address, asking her to confirm it. Naturally, she refused to engage and simply ended the call. It's worth mentioning that during another call, he even inquired about our washing machine before my wife promptly hung up. Despite our attempts to deter them, the relentless calls continue to persist.

Someone phoned asking for him, I told them he wasn’t home. Then they went on asking if I was family, and I jokingly said nah, I’m actually his wife's boyfriend. After that, they started going on about how I could help them anyway. I just ended the call right there!

Been getting nonstop calls from these people about some survey. Whenever I tell 'em I'm not interested and ask to take me off their list, they sometimes get proper annoyed and start threatening to ring back regardless. And yep, they actually do keep calling. It's such a nuisance, and I can imagine how upsetting it must be for older folks who might find it much more stressful.

For months now, I’ve been getting calls from them almost daily - must’ve been over 50 times by now. Once, they even rang me back to ask why I had cut them off, which was a bit cheeky. They’re constantly asking for someone called Mr Jones, but he’s never lived at my address here in North Wales. I always thought BT was meant to stop this sort of rubbish, especially since nuisance calls are meant to be illegal these days? When I tried reaching out to BT myself, they said it would cost me around £17 to block the number! Nah, not paying for that.

Got a call from 02088199789 earlier, they were asking for either me or my husband. I asked what it was regarding and they said it was some sort of survey. When I questioned where they got my number from, they said it was from a database. I made it clear that my number’s ex-directory and I was about to mention I’m registered with TPS, but she just interrupted me! Pretty cheeky considering they were the ones who called me first.

Got hit up by this number about 4 times within an hour. Answered the first couple and there was nothing but silence. Didn’t bother picking up the last two calls. To the folk from Surrey who commented back on 13/07/2016 - I’m down in Devon and it seems like these annoying calls are spreading all over. I’m registered with TPS and my number’s ex-directory, yet they just don’t seem to care. If they ring again, I can’t promise I’ll watch my language!!

To effectively deal with unwanted callers, it is advisable to inform them that you are under investigation for viewing inappropriate content online. Let them know that your computer has been confiscated by the authorities and if anyone claims to be viewing it, it must be the police examining the device. Encourage them to contact the police and discuss their concerns with them. By employing this tactic, the callers will quickly hang up and you will no longer receive such nuisance calls for a significant period of time. This approach has proven to be successful on every occasion.

I recently fell victim to a scam perpetrated by individuals claiming to be from "Windows Technical Support," resulting in a loss of £300. When I called them three times, they provided me with different explanations. At one point, they said their Accounts department in the USA would contact me, but later on, they insisted I had to put my concerns in writing. Unfortunately, they were unable to provide me with a physical address when I requested one. As a last attempt, I asked for their email address, but they refused to disclose it unless I allowed them to access my computer remotely. When I persisted in asking for the email address, they abruptly ended the call. The names used by these individuals were John Bell, David Peterson, and James Fraser.
