Phone number ☎️ 08000439398 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance scam originating from an Indian call centre, targeting individuals with claims of road traffic accidents that they are unlikely to have been involved in. Callers typically use poor English, often confirm the recipient's name and address to add credibility, then attempt to prompt a response about alleged car accidents or insurance claims. Many recipients report silent calls, line disconnections, or immediate hang-ups, indicating attempts to verify active numbers rather than genuine enquiries. The number frequently calls mobiles as well as landlines, despite recipients being registered with the Telephone Preference Service. Users warn it to be a fraudulent operation, urging others not to engage, block the number, and report such calls to protect personal information.
Reports on phone number 08000439398
12 yearsGot a call earlier saying I’d been in some sort of accident, sounded like one of those scam calls from an Indian call centre. Totally suspicious.12 yearsJust like loads of others, it was one of those dodgy call centres from India with really poor connection. They somehow knew my name, but the moment they mentioned "road traffic accident," I just ended the call straightaway.12 yearsThis number rang me up today and some bloke claimed he got my info from a national health survey - which I’ve never done at all. Then he wasn’t even certain if I was male or female, asking if I was "Mr or Mrs [surname]". He also said I’d reported a car accident, which is complete rubbish, I’ve never had one. When I said I’d report the call, he tried to say sorry for bothering me. Proper annoying caller! - caller: Unknown company12 yearsGot a missed call from 08000439398 earlier, but when I rang back it said the number’s not in service or doesn’t exist. Bit odd.12 yearsGot a suspicious phone call from what seemed to be a call centre in India, saying I was involved in a car accident claim. The funny part is, I don't even have a car! Number showed up as 0800 043 9398. Definitely felt like a scam.12 yearsGot a call from someone claiming a vehicle linked to my address, with a name close to mine, was in a crash sometime in the past three years. I told them we don't have a car here and they just ended the call.12 yearsThis number has rung me up 4 times in just two weeks. Every time I pick up, the call cuts off straight away. The number showing is 08000439398.12 yearsLooks like one of those scam calls to me. Number was 08000439398. Definitely don’t trust it!12 yearsGot a call from an Indian call centre - they were asking for my kid by name, saying there had been a car crash. But my child wasn’t anywhere near it. How on earth did they find out my kid’s name? Why is BT not doing anything about the number 08000439398 still being active?12 yearsThis number rang me in the early afternoon but as soon as I picked up, the person just cut off. I ended up leaving the receiver off the hook for about 15 mins to see if they'd call back. - caller: 0800043939812 yearsThey rang, asked for my last name, and then just cut the call off. Maybe they were checking my details with what they had on file, or figured I wouldn't be an easy target to fool.12 yearsGot a call from some bloke with an Indian accent, which creeped me out a bit since he already knew my name. He said he was ringing from a car company or something like that. I wasn’t having it though, called him out on it straight away and then he just cut the call. Bit suspicious if you ask me.12 yearsJust got a call about a car crash, which I had nothing to do with. The man on the phone asked if the vehicle belonged to my husband, but I’m not even married! Ended the call straight away. - caller: 0800043939812 yearsGot a strange call from an unknown number, but before I could say anything, they just ended the call. Never got a clue what it was about.12 yearsHeard some weird crackling sounds but no one spoke when I answered. Figured I’d check the number to make sure I hadn’t ignored an important call, but it just came back as this one. - caller: 0800043939812 yearsGot a call from some weirdo who sounded like a malfunctioning robot or something, couldn’t make out a single thing they were saying - caller: total muppet.12 yearsThis number has called me three times today. Each time, a bloke with what sounds like a Southeast Asian accent speaks, but it’s mostly mumbling and he keeps saying my name wrong. He keeps going on about some car crash but never gives any specifics or dates. Honestly, I’d love to have a word with whoever’s behind this, preferably face to face so I can show them my size 12 steel-toe boots. - caller: uneducated person struggling badly with English.12 yearsToday I got a ring from some place in India, some call centre I reckon. They somehow had my name and number, which was weird. Started talking about car crashes or something, I just cut the call instantly! - caller: 0800 043 939812 yearsPretty much the same as what others have mentioned - a call from an Indian call centre, spinning some tale about a car crash. I told them I don’t drive cause I’m visually impaired and don’t even have a car. Then I asked where they got my info from, and they came up with some excuse about a wrong report before just cutting off. I use my personal mobile pretty much everywhere online because I don’t want to clutter the landline which is tied to my home biz. So I reckon they must’ve picked up my number from somewhere linked to that, which is a bit creepy really. The number was 0800 043 9398, if it helps anyone.12 yearsGot a call from the same bloke again, sounded Indian and his English wasn’t great. He was going on about a car crash linked to this address within the last few years. Once I told him it’s a student flat, the phone went dead. Since I’m on the register here (for voting and all that), I guess he managed to figure out my name and gender, but honestly, he didn’t get anywhere else coz his guesses were way off. Fair play for trying though. - caller: 0800 043 939812 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be with Road Accident management or something like that. They called me by my name and asked if I’d been in any car accidents in recent years. The connection was awful so I asked them to repeat themselves coz I missed a bit, but then they just ended the call straight away.Road12 yearsGot a call from this number earlier today. They wanted to speak to me, but when I asked who it was, the line just went dead. Tried calling them back and I got a recorded message saying I’d reached the wrong number... I’m on the TPS so this has to be against the rules. - caller: 0800 043 9398Telephone Preference ServiceCaller12 yearsThe person on the other end was quiet and then just cut the call after a few seconds.. what a complete waste of time.12 yearsSo this number just popped up on my phone, right? Turns out it was some call centre from India or something. The call went like this: phone rings, I pick up, "Hello?" Long pause... Then the person goes, "Is this Mr X?" I said yeah, that's me. They start with, "How are you today, Mr X?" And I was like, "I'm good, but who exactly is this?" Then they hit me with this story about a road traffic accident that supposedly happened and was reported at my place. I told them flat out I wasn’t in any accident. They insisted I was. I asked where they even got my number from, and then the line just went dead. Honestly, it really grinds my gears. How on earth do these folks get hold of your details? Proper shady stuff.IndiaX12 yearsThis number called me the other day, and it turned out to be some call centre based in India. Here’s how the conversation went down: Phone rings a couple of times. Me: Hello? Silence for a few seconds... Caller: Is this Mr X? Me: Speaking. Caller: Hi Mr X, how are you doing today? Me: I’m alright, but who’s this please? Caller: I’m calling about a road traffic accident linked to your address. Me: No, that’s not right. Caller: Yes, there was definitely a road traffic incident reported for you. Me: I wasn’t involved in anything like that. Where on earth did you get my number? Caller then just hung up. It really winds me up. How do these people get hold of your personal details like that?IndiaX12 yearsAnswered the phone right as it rang and there was nothing but silence, no one said a word. Sounds like one of those automatic diallers to me.12 yearsThe call dropped after about 10 seconds, and there was no noise at all.12 years15:00 11/04/15 Phone rang with no noise from the other side, then they just ended the call. Number was 0800 043 93 98.12 yearsThis number keeps ringing me every couple of days. Whenever I pick up, the connection is terrible and either it's dead silent or I catch faint noises in the background. As soon as I say hello, the caller hangs up straight away. Seems like a spam call to me. Can anyone tell me how to block these annoying calls? - caller: Spam call centre12 yearsThis number has called me about once a week now, and it's the 6th time already. The line is always crackly and sounds dead. The last time it was a woman with an Asian accent who spoke for just a few seconds. The number is 08000439398.12 yearsSeeing these comments made me decide to block this number after I missed their call.12 yearsThis number rang me up and wanted to speak to my folks... on my own mobile! I asked them to repeat what they said as I didn’t catch it right, and they just hung up straight away. - caller: 0800043939812 yearsI’ve had this number ringing me up a few times over the past year and I’m baffled how they even got hold of my digits since I haven’t joined any sites or anything, and I’m only 19. They called on 28th Feb, then again on 26th March, and just now on 9th April. Didn’t pick up any of their calls but it’s pretty irritating to keep getting them out of the blue.12 yearsJust got a call from someone in an Indian call centre, talking about accident insurance or something. My missus just cut off straight away.India12 yearsGot a call from some guy called Adnan claiming he was with Road Traffic Accidents Management. I told him I’ve not had any accidents recently and he just cut me off straight away. What a muppet. - caller: Road Traffic Accidents ManagementAdnanRoad Traffic Accidents Management12 yearsGot a call from someone in India asking about a car accident I supposedly had, which isn’t true at all. They already knew my name and address somehow. I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number.India12 yearsThey kept ringing me loads during March, I ignored every call. Eventually picked up but there was nothing but silence on the other end.12 yearsHad a ring on my phone from this number earlier. The call was quite scratchy, and a guy with a thick Indian accent kept talking about some 'road traffic accident' I'd apparently been involved in (which I definitely haven't). I just cut the call short and blocked the number straight away. Still, how on earth do these people get hold of private mobile numbers?12 yearsGot a call like that too, said something about an accident. Thing is, I did have a crash but that was ages ago, like five years back, and everything was sorted already. Feels like some kind of fraud to me. I was at work so didn’t have time to mess around, just told them to stop ringing me and hung up quick.12 yearsMy phone rang and when I picked up there was a bit of a lag like it was linking me to someone else. The caller seemed to know my surname which was a bit worrying. Every time they tried to say their location the sound got all distorted but I caught them mention "accident" somewhere in there. I decided to just end the call.12 yearsi get a call from them nearly every week, its really annoying now!12 yearsGot a call from 08000439398 on my mobile. No one said anything at all, then the line just went dead. Feels like it was some kind of scam or telemarketing attempt.12 yearsGot a call from an Indian bloke speaking pretty bad English, tried to make out I’d been in a car crash recently. I told him I didn’t even have a car, then he asked if any of my family did. Didn’t fancy it after that so I just ended the call. The number was 08000439398.12 yearsTerrible call, thick Indian accents and they claimed to be from some Road Traffic Accident claims company, trying to confirm if I'd been in a little crash and that they'd be sending me a cheque (like I’d fall for that one!). What’s crazy is how clueless they were - got my name wrong, no idea about my address or any other info, and their English was seriously poor, making it impossible to understand what they wanted. In the end, I just hung up and blocked the number. - caller said they were from Road Traffic Accident management ..?Road Traffic Accident Management12 yearsMy phone went off but I didn't pick up. When I checked the voicemail, it was just lots of background noise from a busy call centre, no actual message though.12 yearsGot a call from this number on 15th March 2019. I picked up and there was an Indian guy with pretty broken English who kept asking about an accident he said he knew a lot about. Thing is, I never put in a claim since no one was injured and everything was sorted out. When I told him I was actually dealing with a separate claim from being hit by a stolen vehicle, he showed no interest. Looks like just another claims outfit fishing for info using my details. Definitely sounded like a call centre in India.CallerIndia12 yearsThis number has rung me a couple of times over the last few days. The initial time I picked up, no one said a word, then after about 6 or 7 seconds they just hung up. Today it rang again but I didn’t answer, decided to check it out online and now it’s on my block list. I’ve had similar silent calls before, just from different numbers. The number was 0800 043 9398.12 yearsJust got a call from this number while I was working, so I didn't pick up. After seeing what others said about it, I'll be blocking it right away. - caller: 0800043939812 yearsThey called but didn’t say anything, so I ended the call.12 yearsThe number above kept calling but no one said anything when I answered. Quite annoying!12 yearsGot a call from what sounded like a call centre in India. They knew my name and even the postcode of where I work, then said I’d had an accident on the passenger side of my car and asked if I remembered. I had no clue what they were on about, so just said no and they quickly hung up. Number’s now blocked - it was 0800 043 9398.12 yearsGot a call from this number today, some bloke speaking in really bad English, asking for my 13 year old daughter. When I asked how he even knew her name, he just ended the call straight away. Suspicious much?12 yearsI got a call from a man with really poor English who kept going on about a car crash I supposedly had in the past three years. Problem is, I've never owned a car in my life. What freaked me out the most was that he had my full name, where I live, and my mobile number. Bit unnerving, to say the least.12 yearsI got a call last Saturday around half six in the evening from someone with a strong Asian accent who claimed there had been a car crash in the past three weeks. They knew my name but their voice was really hard to follow.12 yearsI answered with a quick hello but there was just silence on the other end. After around 7 seconds, the person hanging up quietly without saying anything. The number was 0800 042 9398.12 yearsAs soon as I picked up, they just ended the call. Looks like they're trying to figure out if the number's active.12 yearsThis number has rung me a couple times on my mobile. Each time I picked up, there’s silence on the other end then it just cuts out. I’ve stopped answering it now because it’s a bit irritating. Feels like there’s no one actually there when I do pick up.12 yearsGot a missed call from this number around a week back, and then just now, I got another ring. The bloke on the line knew my full name and that I’m female, but his English was pretty rough. Sounded like he was in some loud call centre in India, really hard to understand.India12 yearsI've been getting calls from this number quite a bit over the past week, but every time I picked up, there was just silence on the other end - caller: unknown.12 yearsGot a spam call from 08000439398, be careful!12 yearsThis number has called me a couple of times now. I didn't recognise it, so I ended up blocking it after the second call. Caller unknown.12 yearsI picked up and the moment I did, they just hung up on me. Same experience here.12 yearsSo loud and annoying, kept hearing loads of hellos and background chatter like a call centre. Just a waste of time for me.12 yearsLike a few others have said here, on 3rd July 2015 I picked up a call from 0800 043 9398 but no one spoke and then the line just went dead. Quite odd really.12 yearsGot a call from an Indian bloke with terrible signal, claiming it was about a car crash. Funny thing, he already knew my name! Definitely sounded like a scam to me.India12 yearsGot a call from this number earlier, not planning to pick up if it rings again.12 yearsGot a call on my phone today from the same number. The guy claimed it was about a car accident I was in - funny thing is, I don’t even drive and never had any accidents. Somehow, he already had my name, gender, and mobile number, which I never share and always make sure to opt out of marketing. I’m signed up with the TPS too, so no idea where they’ve grabbed the info from. I told him straight up he was a spammer and I hadn’t agreed to the call, then he just ended it. I also got a call from 888888888 on Monday, so maybe these two are linked. Both numbers are blocked now, no chance with me. :) - number was 0800 043 9398Telephone Preference Service12 yearsthey rang me but didn't say a word after i answered12 yearsGot a call from this number earlier, but all I heard was silence on the other end.12 yearsGot a ring from a bloke with a strong Indian accent who was struggling a lot with his English. He was saying something about a crash involving my car and asked if I recalled any accident recently. I told him I didn’t know what he was on about, then he just ended the call. I’m quite used to these types ringing the landline, which I hardly pick up, but now they’ve started ringing my mobile, which is a bit much. Proper irritating and a waste of time for both of us, I’d say. Anyway, I’ve blocked the number now.12 yearsThere was nothing said, the person just ended the call.12 yearsGot a ring from this number today around 5:25pm (5th of March). I picked up and the person just dropped the call immediately. After a quick look online, looks like another dodgy call from some scam call centre in India. So, I've blocked it and added it to my spam list. Honestly, don’t waste your time picking up these useless calls. - caller: silent, then call ended abruptlyCaller12 yearsI nearly didn’t catch their call but rang back straight away, only to get some recorded message about it being expensive to call that number on a mobile or something like that. Then I tried from our landline but all I got was silence and no answer at all. - caller: UnknownCaller12 yearsGot a call from this number around 1:49 in the afternoon, but I didn't pick up since I wasn't sure who it was. No voicemail or anything was left.12 yearsCalled from a call centre abroad. Same old nonsense as always.12 yearsGot a ring on 4/3/15, but nobody answered. After a pause, the call just dropped. Did a bit of digging and it looks like it's an Indian call centre. They probably ring up about stuff like accident claims or some sort of bank fraud. My guess is they call about whatever they get paid for. Caller was from an overseas call centre, I reckon.12 yearsPicked up the phone but the line was really crackly and I could hear loads of noise in the background like a call centre. Before I could say anything, the person just dropped the call.12 yearsLoads of dodgy calls telling me I’m owed money for a car crash. Total scam!12 yearsThe connection was awful, I could barely make out what the caller said, but it sounded like he claimed to be from my bank’s fraud detection team. Turns out he wasn’t. The line was so distorted I couldn’t catch exactly what he said, even though he clearly knew my name. Really hate dealing with nonsense like this...12 yearsHad a call with someone speaking in an Asian accent, and it was really hard to catch what they were saying about some traffic accident or something.12 yearsGave it a bell, but there was nobody on the line, so I hung up.12 yearsI answered the call, but there was silence on the other end, so I just hung up.Submit Your Own Report (0800 043 9398)
