03332027722 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 03332027722 👆 is reported as a scam linked to unsolicited premium rate texts and subscriptions, often triggered by entering seemingly legitimate competitions online. Victims are charged weekly fees without clear consent, typically around £4.50, significantly increasing phone bills. Attempts to opt out by texting "STOP" usually fail, and customer contact is unresponsive or misleading. The company behind it, often identified as Xinwin Ltd or related aliases, uses multiple numbers and evasive tactics. Mobile providers may struggle to intervene, though blocking premium numbers is advised. Affected individuals are urged to report to regulators like Ofcom, Action Fraud, and ICO, while seeking refunds through official complaint channels. Vigilance is essential to avoid these deceptive practices and prevent financial loss via mobile accounts.

Honestly, been getting these texts since January and had no clue they were charging me. Then today, 02 drained a load of my cash! Is there any way I can get some of it refunded? This is just ridiculous.

I’ve been getting those texts every single week and honestly, I’m fed up. Can you please refund the charges you’ve been taking from me every Tuesday for like ten months now? This has gone on way too long!

I’d definitely suggest getting your phone company to block this number for you.

I've been dealing with this issue too. Honestly, the best thing I did was to get my network provider to block the number for me.

Just a heads up for anyone dealing with this number. You should get in touch with your phone provider and have it blocked straight away. I found out this firm also rings from two other numbers: 700046067 and 88227 - so block them too if they show up. The company behind all this is called XINION LTD. They’ve got a website at xiequire.xinwin.co.uk but be really careful about sharing your bank info with them. It’s best to check with your bank beforehand to stop any payments being taken out by these guys; only accept money going into your account, if you even get a reply from them.

For over a year now, I've been charged for this so-called "service" without even realising I was subscribed. It's clearly a scam because I never agreed to anything knowingly. They claim to send texts about how to unsubscribe, but since I never signed up, I just ignored all of them.

I’m fed up with getting these texts, I never agreed to any of it so why am I being charged £4.50 every week just for them sending me messages? I already sent a message saying stop but they just keep texting the same rubbish. Now it’s even worse because they won’t let me text back “stop” anymore. It’s cost me around £20 already, how on earth do I get them to quit spamming me?

I’m fed up with getting these texts out of nowhere, I never signed up for any of it but they keep charging me £4.50 a week. I’ve tried texting STOP loads of times but they just carry on sending the same rubbish. Now it won’t even let me reply with STOP anymore. It’s already cost me £20 and I have no idea how to make them quit. Can anyone help me figure out how to stop this?

I got in touch with Lidl and noticed a promotion where you could win £500 in Tesco vouchers. Shortly after, I got a text telling me I'd signed up to pay £4.50 each month just for entering this contest. It wasn’t made clear at all, even if it might’ve been buried in the terms and conditions. These kinds of scams are just awful.

So I got in touch with Lidl's and noticed they had a chance to win £500 worth of Tesco vouchers. Then suddenly, I got a text telling me I’d signed up to pay £4.50 every month for entering the contest, which honestly wasn’t obvious at all even if it was somewhere in the fine print. These sort of scammy deals are just awful.

Beware of the number 88227, it's a total scam. I ended up losing £100 because of it via my phone company. When I realised I was getting billed for texts from them, I tried to unsubscribe but they charged me for that too. Despite that, the messages just kept coming. I blocked the number, but now they're sending texts from different mobile numbers. It's really frustrating.
10 years
Avoid the number 88227 at all costs, it’s definitely a scam. I got ripped off by about £100 thanks to my phone company charging me for texts I didn’t ask for. When I realised what was going on, I tried to unsubscribe, but then they charged me for that too! Even after I blocked their number, they just kept sending texts from different numbers. It’s been such a headache.

I got caught up in one of those prize draw scams, thought it was legit since it popped up in a well-known app. They promised a free Samsung if you joined in. After signing up, they wanted my phone number, and not long after I received a message saying I’d be charged £4.50 every week, plus a few more texts followed. The dodgy number is 88227, and every message they send sets you back £4.50. Luckily, Vodafone has now blocked premium texts coming in, so fingers crossed that’s it sorted, but does anyone know how to fully stop these?

I’ve lost more than £30 thanks to this ripoff. I text STOP three separate times and got a message back saying it was cancelled, but then 3 hours later £4.50 was taken from me anyway. Next day it happened again, another £4.50 gone just a day after I topped up £10. I’m missing £9 all together and can't find any way to get my money back - tried the website but it's impossible to get hold of anyone. My phone is from Tesco, so not sure who else to turn to.

We’ve only just noticed that these lot have been sneaking charges from us for months. Everything folks have mentioned here is spot on.

Normally I'm pretty careful about avoiding scams, so this caught me off guard. On Sunday 10th April, I received a text saying thanks for taking part in the national lottery and gave a link: lottery.xinwin.co (which I never clicked). Then today, another message came through claiming I could win a Tesco voucher if I answered a quiz question about the New York subway length - asking me to text A or B to 88227, and included a number 03332027722 for help.

Every week they take £4.50 from me and I have no idea how to make it stop. What's worse is I don't even have any credit left on my phone!

Just a heads up, they charge you £4.50 every single time they send a text. Watch out!

So I took part in some contest, and now I notice there’s a £4.50 weekly fee added to my phone bill. Should I think about getting a new number or what?

Been getting texts about some membership stuff, but it feels like a total scam :( I’ve got zero credit left and still they keep sending messages that end up charging me??? There’s this spammy email, [email protected], popping up and the name Xwin keeps showing in the texts too? I tried texting STOP to 82288 to opt out, but nothing comes back at all ?? Really frustrating!

So, I got this survey pop up on my phone and after filling it out, I received two different PIN codes to put into separate boxes - one was supposed to win me an Apple Watch and the other an Asda voucher. But then, less than an hour later, £9 mysteriously got taken from my phone credit. It’s ridiculous. Plus, I tried texting "STOP" to the number they gave, but the message just wouldn’t send. Proper dodgy stuff.

So my mate’s been getting weird texts from his own number lately, and she says her phone’s been charged over £20 because of it. I’ve blocked the number as spam now, fingers crossed it stops the messages. If anyone knows a sure-fire way to get rid of this for good, please let me know! Cheers!

My daughter, who’s 11, entered some contest online and now it’s been charging us £4.50 repeatedly. I’m seriously thinking of changing her phone number because nobody seems to be able to stop these con artists. It’s so frustrating that they just carry on like this without any consequences.

They took about 30 quid from me. Can someone tell me how I’m supposed to get that money back? Really need some help here.

I never knew I’d signed up for any kind of competition. Tesco told me to call this number and ask them to stop withdrawing money. They said they would, but I’m not convinced it’ll be that simple. They also suggested sending a text with the word STOP to 82288, but for some reason, that message wouldn’t send. BT said they aren’t breaking any laws and said they can’t really get involved.

So, these people go by the names Pound to Play and Panther Play, operating out of Northwich, Cheshire. The best thing to do is contact your mobile network and ask them to block all premium rate numbers. After that, have them send a "STOP" message to that company. Trying to get a refund of the £4.50 they charge per text is a nightmare, and I'm not even sure it’s possible. Honestly, this situation screams for an investigation by WatchDog or Rogue Traders on the BBC.

Im retired and just got tricked by some offer saying I'd won a free ipad. Now, my EE bill’s suddenly gone up to double what it was before. They said I'd get a text explaining what to do next, but nothing's come through yet. Really need some guidance fast because I definitely can’t afford this extra charge for no good reason.

Can someone tell me how to recover £18.75? They’ve taken the money from my account and I never agreed to it. Really annoyed about this.

These lot have been taking £18 out of my account every month by hacking into my phone. I reckon my Talk Talk mobile should’ve blocked it but they didn’t. I’ve told them about it and as a goodwill gesture, they only gave me a £5 credit, which isn’t really enough.

I’ve been getting loads of texts too. I replied with stop all on 7/8/15 and got a confirmation message back that day. But then out of nowhere, two days later, I got another text and they charged me £4.50 again. It’s really annoying!

I contacted them about a month back and my refund was meant to come through today. Starting to lose hope here, pretty sure my next update will be me writing from beyond the grave.

I think I’ve been tricked by one of those offers saying I won an iPad! Can someone tell me how to get it sorted and stop any more problems? Cheers!
