Phone number ☎️ 03332020478 👆 is reported as a scam involving premium rate texts charging around £4.50 each, often without clear consent. Many users mention unexpected and repeated charges on their bills, sometimes over lengthy periods, despite not recalling subscribing. Efforts to stop the texts via standard methods like texting 'STOP' to certain shortcodes have mixed success, with some reporting continued charges. Mobile providers like O2 are frequently seen as unhelpful, and users struggle to get refunds or clear information. The issue commonly arises after entering competitions or quizzes, sometimes linked to dubious numbers and websites, causing frustration especially for vulnerable individuals. There's considerable concern about legality and lack of transparency, with affected people seeking urgent assistance to halt payments and recover losses.

10 yearsIt's definitely a con! Those premium text services nab your number, and before you know it, you're staring at your bill with extortionate charges of £4.50 for each text they send your way!10 yearsI've been charged £3.75 thrice but I never signed up for this service. I've sent a text saying STOP ALL to 88227. I want my £11.75 back please.10 yearsI haven’t gotten any texts at all but my provider (3) just informed me that I’ve gone over my limit because of some messages from 03332020478. I’m really worried because I never entered any sort of competition, so I don’t understand why I’m being billed like this. I want a full refund for the charges that appeared last month. This doesn’t seem right and I’m planning to report this company.10 yearsJust got my latest phone bill and saw I’m always going past the payment date, which really confused me. I never got any texts about it but they still took the money. I’m really not happy about being charged for competitions I never joined. This seems unfair, and honestly, it worries me that someone can be charged that much without proper notice. I’m asking for a full refund right away.10 yearsI tried contacting them to ask for a refund since they've been billing me extra for texts I never requested or agreed to receive.10 yearsI got hit with charges for unwanted texts, two of them at £3.75 each. When I spoke to O2, they said it’s not their problem and refused to give me my money back.10 yearsMy phone bill has way too many extra charges, and when I rang O2, they weren’t much help at all. I’ve attempted loads of times to cancel a subscription linked to this number but nothing seems to work. Can anyone help me figure out how to put an end to these payments? Really don’t want to keep paying for this. Cheers!10 yearsI’m not getting any help from O2 about this, and honestly, it feels like they might be profiting from the whole scam situation.O210 yearsOver the last month, I've noticed £36 taken from my mobile by these numbers: 03330030581, 03332020416, and 03332020478. I've called each one and they all seem linked somehow. They told me to reach out to claimrga1.77win.co and xienquire.xinwin.co.uk to claim £18 back. I've tried both sites but can't find any 'refund form' as mentioned. A woman named Crystal said that 77 Games and Zimwin are basically the same company but with different contact numbers, and any refund has to be requested online. She couldn't give me a refund herself. I'm a pensioner, and this money would cover my bills for a fortnight, so getting my money back is really important. Does anyone know how I can actually get a refund? I’m not sure how any of this started - I would never knowingly sign up to anything. Thankfully, after sending STOP ALL to my mobile provider, it seems like the calls have stopped, but I can’t be totally sure. Please, I really need some help with this before I get too overwhelmed.Crystal77 GamesZimwin10 yearsIt's just crazy how some folks always manage to come up with new ways to pinch your cash!10 yearsI had no clue what was going on, but apparently I've been billed £4.50 every week for about six weeks. I only noticed when I checked my bank statement. I eventually figured out how to cancel it, but honestly, I'm so annoyed now. Surely this isn’t allowed?11 yearsThis number keeps texting me loads every week, from 88227, and I get charged £4.50 each time, which is a right pain. No idea where they got my phone number from either. I’ve been told by my network provider that they can’t do much to block it. I tried texting STOP to 88227 hoping it would sort things out, but I’m not too convinced it will. I’m seriously thinking of changing my number now, but I’ve had this one for years and really don’t want to lose it.11 yearsI got a message from this number saying I'd won an 'Asda' competition. So I followed what it said step by step. At the last bit, it told me I'd completed the entry successfully. Not long after that, I started getting texts warning me that if I didn't reply 'stop', I'd be charged £4.50 a week for access to different competitions. Turns out I've already been charged £4.50 for the initial message and then twice more, 10p each time, for stopping them. Honestly, I have no clue how they got my number. I just assumed it was legit since I'd shopped online before. Really annoyed at being duped like this, proper scam!12 yearsI tried to cancel after answering a quiz, but it just won't let me. It keeps saying to send STOP, but that doesn’t work at all. Quite frustrating!Submit Your Own Report (0333 202 0478)
