9 monthsThis is just rubbish, no details given about the text message at all.10 monthsCan't say who this is, definitely not someone I recognise. They never bother to drop a message either. Watch out for this one.12 monthsI figured this was probably some spam, so I just let it ring. I had a feeling it might be someone from Universal Credit, but nope, that wasn’t it. Honestly, best to just ignore calls from numbers you don’t know!Universal Credit1 yearI keep getting these so-called MSM McSoft texts, but there’s no number attached when you try to check them out. It’s super annoying.MSM McSoft1 yearGot a few calls claiming to be from Nat West saying there’s been some dodgy stuff going on with my account.Nat2 years01592569849 called me even though I’m on the TPS list. The caller said something about suspicious activity on my Visa card and asked me to press 2 to speak with someone. When I did, an Asian guy answered and I told him it was a total scam since I don’t own any Visa card at all! Seriously, don’t pick up or get involved with this number.TPS2 yearsCan someone please help me get a message to Mr Mohammaad Mansoor?

Honestly, it felt fishy, like some sort of scam to me.IU Advice2 yearsGot a call from 08000359658, they said they were from an energy provider but couldn’t even get the name right. Seemed a bit dodgy to me.2 yearsThis number, 08000152637, keeps ringing my home phone non-stop. They say something about a credit card alert and tell me to press a number, but I usually hang up before the message finishes. It's so annoying how often they call!2 yearsThis number has been blowing up my phone for the last three days straight. If I ever caught these fraudsters, I'd stick the phone somewhere they wouldn't like at all. So annoying! 🤬2 yearsGot an email asking me to call 08000 512 503 about some personal statement and info for an insurance claim. Rang the number and the automated voice seemed really sketchy. The email looked just as fishy. Wouldn’t put any faith in it. Have flagged it as phishing for the time being.2 yearsI keep getting calls from this 08000 number claiming to be Virgin Media. They’re really pushy but I’m just ending the call every time!Virgin Media3 yearsI called an 08000 number on my phone and couldn’t hang up no matter what I did, had to just switch my phone off in the end. Seems like it might have been some kind of scam to me.3 yearsThey've called me like 15 times in three days, I really wish I could actually speak to them!!!!!!!!!!3 years### ### ### definitely feels like a scam to me.3 yearsCalled back and there was just silence, nobody answered. Total spam call.3 yearsI got loads of calls from 08000466138 last week but my landline’s Call Guardian stopped them getting through, which was a relief. I had to use my mobile to check who was calling and it turned out to be NatWest bank’s Fraud Department. I just hung up straight away after that.Call GuardianFraud DepartmentNatWest Bank3 years08000803245 called me and said it was an FSA survey. Seemed pretty dodgy, like a scam to me.FSA4 yearsGot a text from 08000807906 saying it’s HSBC and my card’s been frozen over some odd transactions. They wanted me to ring that number back. Pretty sure it’s just a scam.HSBC4 yearsI missed the call so not sure who it was that phoned.4 yearsGot a call really early one morning in the UK.

Dont bother calling them back. Just block the number straight away.Nat West4 yearsI saw a Facebook ad saying 08000987877 was offering a free £30 voucher for pensioners. I rang them and they said someone would get back to me the same day, but up till now, I haven't heard anything.4 yearsThis number rang me a few times back to back before I finally answered. The bloke claimed he was from the fraud team at my bank and told me to open my banking app while we were chatting. Luckily, I didn’t do it and told him I wanted to verify the call before doing anything. Glad I was cautious with that one.4 years08000803242, seemed like it could be a dodgy scam or some kind of phishing attempt.5 yearsThey claimed to be from Nat West fraud team and wanted me to verify my birth year by picking from a list of dates.NatWest5 years08000 337737 is definitely a scam, watch out!5 yearsGot a ring from 08000##### and I reckon it was some sort of scam.5 yearsdont get tricked, its just govt collecting ur data through bt.5 yearsBit odd - got a call from 0800 298 1293 and as soon as I picked up, they just cut off. Tried ringing back but no luck, the number didn’t show up as a valid one?5 years080009697797 Halifax online bank fraud, scammer managed to access my online account using codes from an earlier Hermes parcel message scam. They tried to steal my child's savings and set up an overdraft, all while locking me out by changing my passwords. They also sent money from my account to Gemini Bitcoin in New York.HalifaxHermesGemini BitcoinNew York5 yearsGot a call from 08000093651 on a Friday afternoon, claiming to be Thames Water and even mentioning my water account info, which made me raise an eyebrow. The woman said her name was TIBA and kept firing questions at me, but dodged every one I asked back. When I pressed her about it, she snapped at me not to ring her again and just hung up. I had already told her my full name and the first part of my address, thinking they were following up about an unpaid bill or something like that.Thames Water5 yearsIt was supposedly a bank call, and they said they just wanted to verify my name, which they already had anyway.5 yearsThe number 10 597 9843 rings daily but ive blocked it, also 0800 009 3651 called me last on 05/05/21 and it's blocked too. Just a heads up for everyone, i dont ever pick up 0800 numbers.5 yearsGot a call from some automated voice with an Indian accent saying it was my internet company and something about being “in credit” on my account. Didn’t wait around, just put the phone down right away.5 yearsdidn't pick up. got loads of calls from them. do they actually ever stop?6 yearsGot a call from an 08000 number three times today! Sounds like it was coming from abroad, and since I never get calls from overseas family, I didn’t bother asking who it was - I kinda knew it was just another scam. This number seems to have caused issues before, so I’d have thought BT would’ve done something about it by now. It’s been going on for ages! It’s definitely marked as risky, and that’s enough warning for me!BT6 yearsI got a call earlier and didn’t pick up. It went to voicemail, and then I heard what sounded like an Indian woman singing in her native language. Quite odd!6 yearsGot a call from 08000151515 and just blocked it straight away.6 yearsGot a call from 08000151515. Just went ahead and blocked it.6 yearsSomeone just rang and said they were from NatWest, but I reckon it was dodgy so I blocked it using BT call protect. Definitely seemed like a scam. cf###NatWest6 yearsGot a text from 08000### saying I could cut down my bills on gas and electric. Seemed like one of those typical calls trying to sell something. Pretty sure it was a telemarketer, so I just ignored it. Not convinced they were legit.6 yearsGot a ring from 08000 ### in London SW on the 4th of September ###. When I asked if it was another one of those silent calls, the line just went dead.London SW6 yearsCould you also update the PDF with the DC rate list? Thanks!DC6 yearsI got a call from 08000### and I’m pretty sure it’s someone trying to scam. Thankfully, my phone service stopped the call from going through.6 yearsGot a call from 08000 798 102 saying they were from BT. I checked with BT and that number isn’t on their list.BT7 yearsA guy with an asian accent called and said, "hello, my number is 772, how’s it going?" I just hung up straight away.7 yearsGot a voicemail from 08000 ### earlier. You could hear loads of chatter in the background, kinda like being in a busy pub. The person on the line mentioned the name Vince a few times, but mum was the word really. I wasn’t too sure who it was for at first. Had a look up the number and honestly, I’m pleased I did.Vince7 yearsI got a call from a bloke claiming he’d installed something on our computer. Tried to chat but ended the call pretty quick. The number started with 08000 ###. Felt a bit dodgy to me.7 yearsAvoid picking up if the call shows as private, especially from numbers like 08000### - it's most likely a scam. People you know, like mates and family, will always have their number visible on your phone. So if it’s hidden or strange, just let it ring out and don’t bother answering.7 yearsCould be a list number, cause I reckon when you pick up, it sneaks your phone to some spammer's list. Not totally sure though.8 yearsHow am I supposed to know!! Told the idiot to check with someone else for the info. Rude cow sounded like she was foreign.8 years08000 338 018 rang my home phone but left no message? Was this morning at about 10.40. Anyone else get this?10 yearsThis is yet another dodgy scam where individuals try to lure you into clicking a link to supposedly "cleanse" your computer of viruses. They claimed to be representatives from our internet service provider. When we asked for the name, he cleverly said "BT," but I'm actually with Speak Talk! We simply let him prattle on for nearly ten minutes while we were preparing dinner, and eventually, he must have realised his efforts were wasted because he hung up on us.BT10 yearsI recently received a call from an 08000 number, and the person on the other end claimed they needed to discuss something regarding our computer. When we asked for more details, they abruptly hung up on us. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!10 yearsI just received a call that was eerily quiet. I tried the 1471 service to find out who it was and it gave me a number starting with 08000. Any idea who could be behind that? There didn’t seem to be any other information provided.10 yearsReceived a quiet call from this number earlier today. What’s the point of even making such calls? It's baffling!10 yearsOh great, another call from these fools! We've flagged them to the Telephone Preference Service more times than I can count, but it seems to have no effect whatsoever. Now we simply hang up on them as soon as they start droning on. It’s beyond frustrating!11 yearsThanks a lot, John! I've picked up a few of them myself. What do these callers actually say to you?John11 yearsPerhaps someone overseas is attempting to get in touch with you from a computer?12 yearsI received a call from a network that couldn’t seem to connect properly. The first ring came through at 11:02, and just ten seconds later, there was another one. It’s quite frustrating when callers refuse to disclose their identity, and frankly, I find it quite unacceptable. As a result, I’ve decided to block them for good. They must think I'm gullible or something!12 yearsReceived a call earlier, along with a brief message on the answering machine - just a simple "hello."12 yearsI received a call that appeared on my Caller ID, but as soon as I answered, the line went silent. Oddly enough, my family members reported that my phone line was constantly busy for a considerable time after that!12 yearsI recently received a call from this number. We picked up, but oddly enough, neither party uttered a word. After a brief moment of silence, the call ended abruptly. Quite peculiar, if you ask me!12 yearsI've got absolutely no idea!12 yearsWe've received a trio of calls from an 08000 number over the past ten minutes. To be honest, we ignore any calls that we don't recognise, and they haven't left a message. Has anyone got a clue about who might be behind this number?12 yearsI've been receiving calls from this number, and I must say, the individual on the other end is quite unpleasant. Their behaviour is downright aggressive and rude. It's really off-putting.13 yearsI’ve received a barrage of calls from this number, and it all took a rather alarming turn when our son answered one of them. The callers frightened him senseless, claiming they were phoning on behalf of our internet provider and stating that our computer was riddled with a 'serious virus.' It's quite unnerving! Has anyone else encountered these jokers, or knows their origin?13 yearsReceived a call followed by a brief text, but all I got on the answering machine was a simple "hello." Quite the puzzler!13 yearsI've received a call from that number as well. I tried ringing 1471 to find out who it was, but it just said the caller's number is unknown.13 yearsReceived a call that jolted us awake during our night shift, searching for someone named Miss Forbes. Never heard of her, and they just hung up! Honestly, what a plonker!Miss ForbesSubmit Your Own Report (08000)
