4 monthsI got a call from this number but didn’t pick up at first. Then they rang back and it seemed a bit more convincing, so I decided to answer. They claimed to be from Vodafone, but the call quality was awful and it all felt a bit dodgy, so I just ended the call.Vodafone4 monthsTotal scam alert! They left a voicemail that just repeated "voicemail, voicemail, voicemail" over and over. The strange thing is the call supposedly came from Belfast, but the number didn’t look like it was from there at all. Definitely suspicious.Belfast4 monthsI got a call from someone claiming to be Vodafone, saying I had to upgrade my SIM or they’d cut off my service. They even threatened to disconnect me if I didn’t give my details. I was on the phone with them while getting a text with a security code that supposedly came from Vodafone. When I asked them nicely to send everything by email instead, they got really annoyed. Later, I checked with Vodafone’s online chat and it turns out it was a scam.Vodafone4 monthsGot a call from someone saying they were from Vodafone, telling me I need a physical SIM card and that they’d post it to me. They asked for a security code they said Vodafone sent in a text, but I’ve heard never to give that out unless you ring Vodafone yourself. I’ve got an eSIM already and they just wouldn’t accept me saying no. Proper dodgy!Vodafone4 monthsThey called me a couple of times but didnt leave any voicemail.Submit Your Own Report (028 9601 6481)
