Received a rather dubious call from someone purporting to be from O2, promising a whopping 50% off my mobile bill for the next six months, all thanks to my excellent credit score. The catch? I'm not even a customer of O2!

I received a message about a half-price deal from O2. I replied saying, "Thanks, but I'll ring O2 myself."

Beware of identity theft! I’ve come across a few calls that seem dodgy, requesting personal information under false pretenses. Stay alert-better safe than sorry!

A representative claiming to be from EE expressed that customers could avail a 50% discount.

I'm skeptical of someone who claims to be from EE and is offering a 50% discount.

I couldn't be bothered to pick up the phone. I generally ignore unknown numbers unless they’re familiar to me.

I received a call from this number earlier, but I chose not to pick up since it didn't seem familiar. After reading the earlier comments, it feels like I made the right decision!

I received a call from a number that sounded like it was coming from a mobile phone outside, with a lot of wind in the background. The person claimed to be from the O2 network. I found it hard to believe that someone from a mobile phone out in the wind could really be calling from the O2 network, so I promptly ended the call and blocked the number.

They asserted to represent O2, but were actually not connected to the network. They fell silent when I pointed out that this was an attempted fraudulent call.

I received a missed call from this number. It seems there are quite a few reports floating around online suggesting it’s a scam linked to EE sales. They rang me while I'm situated close to Edinburgh.

On the 31st of July, I received a call from someone claiming to offer me a generous 50% discount on my o2 contract. I must admit, I was quite skeptical about it!

I recently received a call that I couldn't answer.

Received a call purporting to be from O2, but the individual had a rather thick accent. They were asking about upgrades, which didn’t sit right with me as I wasn’t due for one. I quickly realised it was a scam attempt and ended the call promptly.

I fell victim to a scam from this number yesterday, 17th July 2023. The caller claimed to represent O2 and had all my personal information, including bits of my banking details. They promised me a hefty 50% off my bill for the remainder of my contract and even said I qualified for a free iPad or earbuds. However, they then asked to call me back from a different number in a matter of minutes, and when they did, it was to inform me of a free Apple Watch instead. It didn't take long for the red flags to appear, so I reached out to O2, who verified it was indeed a scam. I immediately changed my account details, and they've escalated the matter to their fraud team. They warned me that if the watch arrived today-which it did-the scammer would likely ring me to ask for its return. Sure enough, within five minutes of the watch being delivered, I got a call from the con artist insisting I return it. They claimed that someone would come to collect it tomorrow, and if I failed to hand it over, they would activate the watch and start charging me, potentially ruining my credit rating. I've promptly cancelled my bank card and consulted O2 again after that unsettling phone call. They reassured me that they would send me a form to facilitate a direct return to them, which means I shouldn't face being blacklisted. The woman on the line was exceedingly persuasive and calm, but even when I firmly stated that I wouldn’t be returning anything, she tried to convince me it wasn’t really mine but belonged to someone else. I stood my ground and told her, "I won’t send it back-you're just a scammer who got me once, not again." I urge everyone to be on high alert and not fall prey as I did!

I tend to let the phone ring its socks off before I hit the block button. If I had to guess, I reckon I've stashed away around 90 numbers in my blocked list by now!

I received a call from an individual who identified himself as being from EE. Since he was an Indian man, I decided to end the conversation abruptly and block the number 08000584591.

I received a call claiming I was eligible for a 50% discount on my O2 mobile plan. They even sent me a message with a code. However, after scrutinising the text, I realised that O2 would never request a code or contact me for such information. Clearly a scam! I reached out to O2 directly, and they've assured me that they hadn’t attempted to get in touch. So, I urge everyone to stay wary of such tricks!

I received a call claiming to be from EE, offering me a 50% discount on my bill. However, it’s not actually them. Plus, the email address they provided for any follow-up is not legitimate. I’d steer clear of these sorts of communications!

I received a phone call offering a 50% discount on our new contract. Puzzling, isn't it?

WARNING: POTENTIAL SCAM CALL - DO NOT RESPOND

***** WARNING: SPAM / FAKE CALLS FROM 08000584591 ********************** Today, I received a call from the number 08000584591 offering a 50% discount. Skeptical, I asked for the caller's official email address from EE. To my surprise, they provided the email [email protected], which is clearly fake. It is evident that these individuals are attempting to obtain personal information, so it is important to stay alert and cautious of such scam/fake calls. The moment she couldn't provide a valid EE email, she abruptly ended the call.

Portraying oneself as ee.

Received a rather unpleasant cold call from someone purporting to be from EE, claiming they needed my personal information. Naturally, I hung up and subsequently blocked the number.

I must say, these individuals are quite perilous. They rang me up, ostensibly to tout some EE discount, but a few days later, they claimed they'd run out of stock for their devices. I attempted to get in touch with them over twenty times, yet I could barely get anyone on the line. When I asked for their actual location, they provided an address that doesn't actually exist. I've fallen victim to a similar scheme a couple of years back; when I visited the address they offered, I discovered it was merely a virtual front. In reality, they seem to be operating from overseas. I urge everyone to exercise extreme caution!

I recently received two phone calls informing me that I would be eligible for a 50% discount on my monthly EE bill.

Indeed, I had a rather peculiar encounter! The first woman I spoke with had an English accent tinged with Indian inflections, almost as if she was still getting the hang of things. The second, however, maintained a more quintessentially English tone and exuded a great deal of confidence when discussing what she claimed was a special offer for current customers. She even mentioned that I’d get an email with further details, which, quite disappointingly, never arrived. Furthermore, she instructed me to mention her name during any follow-up calls. I must emphasise, though, that EE wishes to distance themselves from this whole affair - it’s clearly a scam! #staywary

I’ve just received a phone call from this number, and to be honest, it was a bit of a whirlwind! The person on the line was speaking at lightning speed, making it quite challenging to catch what they were saying. They dangled the enticing offer of an iPhone 14 Pro Max for just £30 a month - a 256GB model, no less! They inquired about my delivery address, so I provided them with my workplace info, but then they started asking for my banking details, which was a definite red flag. I ended the call right then and there and made sure to block the number! If it sounds like a bargain that's too good to pass up, it’s likely a scam!

I was informed that I could score a 50% reduction due to my EE account. When I requested her to send the specifics via email, as is typically the procedure, she inquired about my email address. I explained that EE already possessed that information. To be honest, I was rather sceptical about her being an actual representative of EE since I'd never received an unsolicited call with such an offer before. To my surprise, she abruptly ended the call!

What a nuisance this so-called freephone number has turned out to be! Every time I ring it back, I'm met with nothing but a series of mechanical beeps and whirrs. They seem to ring my phone with annoying regularity, yet I've yet to have an actual conversation with a soul. It feels as though they're dialling up numbers at random, and if someone happens to pick up, it's merely to authenticate another one of their ‘sales’ pitches. Intriguingly, if you try to hang up on them, your call won't terminate - as if it's got a mind of its own! It's high time I remembered to turn my phone off and block it for good. Though, knowing my luck, they'll probably just pop up on a different number before long!

I received a call from a woman with a foreign accent claiming to be from Vodafone. Her voice had a rather musical quality, and she spoke at such a pace that I struggled to make sense of everything she was saying. The only word that stood out to me was "free." I informed her that I don’t engage in business from unsolicited calls, and she promptly hung up. It was most certainly a scam!

I keep getting these calls from this number, it’s absolutely ridiculous. They started off by claiming to be from Giff Gaff, then switched to EE, and eventually said they were Tesco! It’s a complete sham, honestly. The number in question is 0800 058 4591. I’m baffled as to how they’ve gotten their hands on my details. When I requested some basic information that they ought to know, the poor woman on the line nearly lost her composure. I mentioned how far away she was, sitting in India, trying to pull a fast one on people, and it honestly makes my blood boil! The moment I spoke in Punjabi, she must've panicked because my number is now blocked. What absolute jokers! Just a heads up, this happened to me before with a Tesco-related call too. Allegedly, they were meant to send something, yet nothing ever arrived. They even took a quid from my account, and all the emails turned out to be dodgy. I rang Tesco to sort it out, only to find they had no record of me whatsoever! Be extremely cautious, folks!

Received a phone call from a woman claiming to be from EE, offering me a chance to snag an iPhone 14 at half the price on some contract deal. The call was riddled with background chaos-sounded like another lady was busy sealing a deal with some hapless soul. When I mentioned the line was unclear, she promptly hung up. Quite the dodgy affair, if you ask me. Typical scammers, honestly! 🤷🏼‍♀️

Received a fraudulent phone call I recently received a deceitful phone call from an unknown caller.

I received two calls from this number, but when I answered, I was greeted by someone who struggled with English. It was incredibly difficult to comprehend what they were trying to convey. After chatting with others, it seems this is a scam call, so I've gone ahead and blocked the number.

As soon as I picked up, there was suddenly no sound on the other end of the line.

It's a dodgy ploy aiming to trick individuals into revealing their private information.

Please be aware of the number 08000584591 as it is associated with a scam. They claimed to be from the EE network when they called me. However, as I was busy at the time, I immediately hung up and contacted the official EE customer service number, which is 150 from my mobile phone. The EE representative confirmed that no one from their team had called me and urged me not to disclose any personal information if I received another call. As a precautionary measure, I have blocked the number. Stay vigilant!

08000584591 is definitely a scam - be cautious! I received a call claiming to be from the EE network. I was tied up at the moment, so I ended the conversation and dialed the genuine EE number, 150, from my mobile. They assured me that no one representing them had reached out, confirming it was a fraudulent attempt. Whatever you do, don’t divulge any information if they try to contact you again. I've gone ahead and blocked the number!

Received a call allegedly from EE, promising a whopping 50% off mobile contracts.

This is a fraudulent scheme. If you call the number, you will not be able to obtain what they promise. It's deceitful, so it's best to disconnect the call immediately. The individuals on the other end pretend to represent EE, but it's all a hoax.

Purporting to be from EE, but it’s nothing more than a ruse. Beware, it’s a dodgy operation!

I tried ringing the number, but it’s unreachable. It’s obvious that it’s a dodgy scam.

I received a call myself regarding a supposed 50% discount on my EE phone contract. I politely declined, but the caller was quite pushy in trying to convince me otherwise. It definitely strikes me as suspicious, especially since the number was linked to fonehouse.

Hello there! I was wondering if this particular number belongs to the Fonehouse firm. I’ve heard they’re advertising some tempting half-price mobile contract deals, and I’d be grateful to know if it’s all above board. Cheers, M Miah

I didn't respond because I didn't recognize the phone number. No message was left behind.
