02885017468 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 02885017468 👆 is reported as a nuisance scam number predominantly targeting mobile users, often claiming to represent well-known UK telecom companies such as O2, Carphone Warehouse, or Three. Callers frequently offer discounted contracts or free phones but fail to provide credible information and quickly hang up when questioned. Calls often come from varying regional numbers, including Northern Ireland, and feature heavy non-British accents. Recipients are advised not to engage, avoid sharing personal or account details, and block the number where possible. The activity appears aimed at eliciting sensitive information under false pretences, so vigilance is recommended, particularly during peak seasons when such scams tend to increase.

4 yearssomebody from asia called me saying they wanted to send me an iphone, seemed a bit off to me.Asia4 yearsGot a call from some dodgy people claiming to be from India or Pakistan, trying to pull a fast one. Best just to ignore and not pick up.IndiaPakistan4 yearsTotal waste of time, some folks from Pakistan or India ringing up trying to scam you. Best just to ignore and not pick up.IndiaPakistan4 yearsI received a call, but they hung up rather swiftly after a moment or two.5 yearsReceived a call purporting to be from Carphone Warehouse. They began probing about my contract details, but I wasn't keen on engaging, so I politely said I wasn't interested and ended the call.Carphone Warehouse5 yearsI picked up and there was this lady speaking with a strong Indian accent. She kept trying to say where she was from, but honestly, I couldn’t catch a word. I asked a couple of times who she was, but couldn't get a clear answer, so I just ended the call.5 yearsAs soon as I picked up, they just hung up on me. I went ahead and blocked the number straight away.5 yearsTwo calls in just 48 hours now, first was showing a Welsh number, today it showed a Northern Irish one. The woman on the line claimed to offer a 45% discount and said she was from O2. When I started asking her simple questions about the deal, she couldn’t answer properly. I told her I knew it was a scam and then she quickly hung up on me when I kept pressing for details.WalesNorthern Ireland5 yearsTotal rip off, watch out!5 yearsI got a call from 02885017468, but I didn’t pick up. The number's listed in Northern Ireland, which is odd 'cause I don't know anyone there. I looked it up on "who called me" and the reviews weren’t good at all.Northern Ireland5 yearsI got a call from this number, but I just ignored it since I’ve never heard of anywhere called Dungannon in Northern Ireland before.DungannonNorthern Ireland5 yearsGot a call about switching my phone plan with a supposed 30% off, but nothing about my deal would actually change. When I said no, they kept pushing me until I mentioned it was for my landline. Then they just said "have a nice day" and hung up on me. Definitely added this number to my blacklist.5 yearsDidn't say a word when I picked up, had no clue who was ringing me.5 yearsI cant even recall picking up the phone when it rang.5 yearsI got a call from a couple of blokes who sounded like they had African accents. They said they were calling on behalf of O2, offering me a full discount on my phone bill for almost a year. They mentioned I’d get a text with a six-digit code to give them to confirm the deal. Soon enough, I got a message that looked legit, like it was really from O2, but I’m guessing it was all part of their scheme. Luckily, I haven’t been with O2 for ages, so no harm done, and I didn’t give them the code anyway. The funny bit was when I asked where exactly they were calling from. “206 Bath Road,” one said, which I assumed was O2’s main office. Then I asked what town that was in, and they said, “Slugg.” When I asked them to spell it, they said, “S-L-O-U-G-H.” I joked about whether it’s sunny there and how long they’d been living in “Slugg." Honestly, it turned into quite an amusing little chat.Bath Road5 yearsGot a call today from someone claiming to be with The Carphone Warehouse, trying to push a "limited time deal" on a new iPhone. I asked where they were based, and they said the head office in London. But when I pointed out that the number was actually a local one from Northern Ireland, they just ended the call. Totally dodgy!Carphone WarehouseLondon5 yearsThey said they were ringing from 3, which was odd cos I've heard they're also pretending to be from O2 when calling folks. They tried to get me to sign up for a new phone deal supposedly cheaper and free, but it's just a complete scam.5 yearsWatch out! Got a call from someone claiming to be Sam at O2, promising a 40% discount if I shared my O2 code. But when I asked for my name, he had no clue 😳 Total scam alert!Sam5 yearsAnother one of those dodgy call centre scams, just great.5 yearsGot three calls back to back, each from a different number but the bloke sounded like the same or close Indian accent each time. I just hung up while he was still chatting away.5 yearsmissed my call before i could answer, but i'm guessing it was the typical "according to our files, blah blah blah" spiel.5 yearsClaimed to be from O2's main office support but it was completely bogus.O25 yearsHad a couple of calls from lads called James and David, both sounded like they had Indian accents. They were trying to sell me a mobile phone contract. Once they mentioned I didn't need to bother about my current contract because the new SIM would replace it, I cut the call off straight away and blocked their number. Be careful out there, especially around the holidays! Always be wary of calls, texts or emails that come out of nowhere.JamesDavid5 yearsGot two calls in the last couple hours, but no one said a word. Pretty weird.Submit Your Own Report (028 8501 7468)
