This caller said they were from O2 and told me I could get half off my phone bill for the next six months because of my good credit score. Thing is, I’m not even an O2 customer.

Got a call about a 50% off deal from O2, but I just told them thanks and that I'll ring O2 myself.

Was just called asking for personal info - felt like a total scam to me.

Somebody rang me up saying they were from EE and tried to sell me a half-price deal.

Some bloke said he was from EE and promised me a half price discount 🙄 Total rubbish if you ask me.

I usually just ignore calls from unknown numbers. I only pick up if I know who’s calling.

Got a call from this number, but I didn’t pick up since it looked dodgy. Looks like I made the right call after reading the other comments here.

Got a ring from this number and it sounded like they were outside in a blustery place, maybe on a phone out and about. They claimed to be from O2, but I thought there's no way they're really calling from a mobile out there with that much wind noise. I just told them that and ended the call. Number’s blocked now.

They said they were from 02 but it wasn’t showing on my phone as part of their network. When I called them out on it being a scam, they just went quiet.

Got a missed call from this number. After a quick search I found loads of people saying it's a dodgy EE sales scam. I’m not far from Edinburgh too, so looks like it’s going around here.

Got a call on July 31st about a 50% off deal on my O2 contract. Yeah, sure!

Got a call I didn't answer.

Somebody rang me pretending to be from O2, had a really thick accent. They were talking about some upgrade or whatever, but I wasn’t due for anything. Told them straight up it was a scam and hung up.

Yesterday I got caught out by this number claiming to be from O2, said she knew all my info even some bank stuff. She offered me a 50% discount on my bill till my contract finished, then said I qualified for a free iPad or earbuds. After that, she said she’d ring me back from a different number in five minutes. When she called again, she told me it was actually an Apple Watch they were sending me free of charge. It dawned on me it was a scam so I phoned O2. They confirmed it was fake, changed my details, and have passed it to their fraud team now. They told me if the watch arrives (which it did today), the crooks would want me to send it back. Sure enough, less than five minutes after it turned up, the scammers rang saying someone would collect it tomorrow and warned if I didn't return it, they’d activate it and start charging me, plus I’d be blacklisted. I’ve cancelled my bank card just in case. O2 advised me to expect an email with instructions to return the watch directly to them, and reassured me I won’t get blacklisted. The woman was really smooth and calm even when I said I wasn’t sending anything back. She insisted the watch belonged to someone else and I must return it. I told her straight up I wasn’t falling for it again after yesterday’s nonsense. Please be careful and don’t let this happen to you like it did to me!

I usually just let the phone ring out completely before putting the number straight on my block list. I reckon I've blocked close to 90 numbers so far.

Got a call from some bloke claiming to be with EE. Didn’t bother with him, just ended the call and blocked 08000584591 straight away.

I got a call claiming I could receive half price off my O2 contract. Later, they sent me a text with some code, but when I looked closely at the message, it became clear that O2 would never request a code or phone for one, so it’s definitely dodgy. I rang O2 myself and they told me nobody from them had called me. Just be careful out there, folks!

Got a call saying it was from EE, offering me half off my bill. Turned out not to be EE at all. The email they gave me to get back to them wasn’t even real. Definitely steer clear of that one.

Got a call saying they’d slash 50% off my internet deal 🤨

Seems like a dodgy call, better just hang up on it.

***** WARNING: SCAM CALLS FROM 08000584591 ********************* Today, I received a call from 08000584591 claiming to offer a 50% discount. I asked for their official EE email address, and they replied with [email protected], which definitely isn’t genuine. It seemed like an attempt to scam by stealing personal info, so be cautious. When the caller couldn’t provide a proper EE email, they just ended the call abruptly.

Received a call from someone claiming to be with EE, sounded like an Asian scammer trying to get my details. I just hung up and blocked the number straight away.

Honestly, I found these people really shady. They rang me up trying to sell some EE discount deal, and then a few days later, told me they’d run out of phones. I tried calling back like 20 times, barely managed to speak to anyone. When I asked where their office was, they gave me an address that turned out to be fake. I got caught up in a similar scam years ago, went to the address they’d given me then and it was just a postal box somewhere, nowhere real. Turns out they’re probably operating from another country entirely. Seriously, watch out for these sorts of scams.

Had a couple of calls saying I could get half price off my EE bill!

Yeah, it was a couple of women chatting in English but with that distinct Indian accent. The first one sounded like she was still learning the ropes or something! The second woman’s voice was more like a local accent and she acted real confident, saying it was a deal for current customers. She said she’d email me the info but I never got anything, and told me to mention her name if I called again. Just a heads up, EE isn’t involved in this, it’s totally a con. #beware

Just got a call from this number a minute ago. The person on the other end was talking super quickly, making it hard to catch what they were saying. They tried to sell me an iPhone 14 Pro Max for just £30 a month, with 256GB storage! They asked for my delivery address and I gave them my work address, but then they requested my bank details, which made me drop the call and block the number straight away. If it seems like an absolute steal, chances are it’s a scam!

A woman called claiming I could get half price off with my EE account. I said could she email me the info like most offers come through. She wanted my email but I said EE already knows it. I told her I doubted she was really from EE since Ive never had EE call me out of the blue with deals. Then she just shut the phone down on me.

This number claims to be free, but when I ring it back, all I get is weird buzzing noises. It rings me loads of times, but I've never actually had a proper chat with anyone. Feels like it’s just trying numbers at random, and if someone picks up, it marks it down as part of some 'sales' list. When I try to end the call, the phone doesn’t actually disconnect, which is really annoying. Gonna have to power off my phone and block it for good. Though, I'm pretty sure they'll just switch to another number and keep pestering.

Had a call from a woman with a foreign accent claiming to be from Vodafone. She talked really quickly in a kinda sing-song tone, so I couldn't make out much except she said something about ‘free’. I told her I never accept offers from random calls and she just hung up on me. Pretty sure it was a scam!

got a call from this number offering phones, totally dodgy! when i rang back, they first said they were giffgaff, then switched to ee, and ended up claiming tesco. seriously, don’t trust it. 0800 058 4591 or something like that. no idea where they get your info from. i asked for some basic info they should already have and the woman on the other end went silent. told her i knew they were just scammers sitting miles away in india, and even chatted with her in punjabi! now my number’s blocked, typical bastards. be careful with these calls! had a run in with them before too, pretending to be tesco. they took £1 and sent fake emails. rang tesco afterward and they had no record of me at all. shady as hell.

Got a call from a woman claiming to be with EE offering me an iPhone 14 at half price on contract... loads of noise in the back, like another lady was finishing up a sale with someone else... I told her I couldn’t catch what she was saying properly and she just cut off... total scam, for sure… 🤷🏼‍♀️

Got a call from a scammer, was totally annoying.

They rang me twice, both times with someone who barely spoke English and I couldn’t make out what they were saying at all. From what I’ve read from other people, it seems like a scam call. Ended up blocking them.

I picked up the phone and all of a sudden, nothing but silence on the other end.

They were clearly trying to trick me into giving out my personal info. A total scam.

Got a call from 08000584591 claiming to be EE. I told them I was tied up and ended the call. Then I rang EE directly on 150 from my phone to check. They said they hadn’t contacted me and it’s a scam. Don’t share any info if they ring back. I’ve blocked the number now.

Just got a call from 08000584591 saying they were from EE, but it felt dodgy. I told them I was tied up and ended the call, then phoned EE directly on 150 from my phone. They told me they never rang me and it’s a scam. If they call back, don’t share any info. I've blocked the number now.

Got a call saying they were from EE and that they could give me half price on phone plans. Sounds dodgy to me.

Don’t fall for this one, it’s a total scam. When you call back, you’ll just get that annoying unreachable tone. They say they’re from EE, but it’s definitely not legit, so best just to end the call straight away.

Said they were from EE but it’s totally a scam. Don’t trust it.

I tried calling the number but it just wouldn’t go through. Pretty obvious this is some sort of scam.

Just got a ring about some half price deal on my EE contract. Told them no thanks, but she kept pushing quite hard. Seems dodgy to me, especially when the call comes from fonehouse number. Might be one of those scammy things.

Hello, Has anyone else had a call from this number claiming to be from Fonehouse? They were offering a mobile contract at half the usual price. Just wanting to check if this is legit or a bit of a scam. Cheers, M Miah

I saw the number but didn't pick up since I didn't know who it was. They never left a voicemail either.
