08007311731 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 08007311731 👆 is reported as a number mostly linked to Freemans catalogue and related companies like Grattan, Kaleidoscope, and Look Again, with many users confirming it as genuine for customer service, order verification, and complaint follow-ups. However, there are multiple reports of suspicious calls requesting personal info such as date of birth and address, sometimes without proper identification or hanging up abruptly, raising scam concerns. Others note incessant calls at odd hours without leaving messages, causing irritation. Some have received silent calls or claimed it’s a scam pretending to be from Brighthouse or other firms. Overall, it seems a mix of legitimate catalogue-related calls and potential scams, so caller identity and purpose appear inconsistent.

So I got this voicemail from a guy with a really thick Indian accent, said his name was Michael and that he was ringing from Fremont Financial Services Operations. I looked up the company and turns out it was shut down last year. Pretty obvious scam if you ask me.

They claimed they were calling from Grantham Holdings Plc, but it's definitely a scam. Don’t share any info with them. Even if you don’t hand over your bank details, just a bit of your personal info can be enough for them to get in. Also, every time someone flags this number, there's a fake post popping up saying it's legit. Watch out and don’t get tricked!

They claimed to be from Freeman’s and wanted my address along with my date of birth to ‘verify’ who I was. I ended the call as soon as they asked for my birth date. Annoyingly, I did end up giving them the first part of my address and my postcode though.

I got in touch with Freemans after not hearing back from them about an email I sent. When I called, they asked me some simple security questions like my name, date of birth, and postcode to check my identity. They didn’t ask for any bank details or anything like that, which made me feel safe. Overall, seems legit and quite straightforward.

The person on the line kept mumbling and never clearly said who they were. I asked like three times who they were calling for, but instead of answering, they just kept pushing me to give my bank info. I ended the call pretty quick.

Got a call from this number earlier, asking about my Freeman's Flex account I'd only just opened that same day. They wanted me to confirm personal info, which felt off, so I hung up. Then I checked Freeman's official website and called their listed number myself. A woman there told me they wouldn’t ask for details over the phone like that and that I did the right thing by ending the call. There’s so many scammers trying to get at our info nowadays - it’s really worrying.

Someone called saying they were from Bon Prix catalogue, wanted to verify my name and account info from years back. They got my name right at the start, then told me to ring back in half an hour with the details. I was like, you just said my name, why do you need me to confirm? Then they said it was for confirmation. I said no thanks and ended the call. Really odd way to talk. If it was genuine, why all the messing about?

I received a call earlier today from someone purporting to be from Grattan Holdings. They requested my date of birth, but I wasn’t comfortable sharing any personal details, so I decided to hang up. It’s funny how they already had my mobile number while I didn’t provide any information in return. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!

I received a call at around 10:05 this morning. A gentleman on the other end asked for someone referred to as 'Mrs something' and promptly disconnected after we politely asked him to repeat himself. Quite the charming individuals, I must say! I’m registered with the Telephone Preference Service, and I can assure you there’s never been a Mrs at my address. (Interestingly, like Claire mentioned, I discovered the name when I tried calling back.)

It's quite amusing how, the moment these callers hit my answering machine, they always blurt out, "Hello, could we have a word with Mr. So-and-so?" Clearly, they're after our partner but refuse to disclose their purpose. We respond with a fair bit of sarcasm, pointing out that she's at her workplace-just like they should be at this hour on a weekday! On weekends, we dramatically lament, “How dare you interrupt my precious family time? I'm rather occupied at the moment!” Once, I playfully asked one of them what sort of toothpaste they favour, and surprisingly, it actually seemed to throw them off their game! However, I reckon some might think I'm a bit unhinged for that tactic!

I've been on the hunt for this number because I'm absolutely fed up with these incessant calls that never bother to leave a message. The moment I attempt to call back, it’s just some house shopping nonsense. Honestly, I wish they'd just disappear already! It’s become quite bothersome, to say the least. Does anyone have a clue on how to put an end to this sort of thing?

I've had multiple calls on my mobile from this number today. From what I've gathered in other reviews, it seems likely that this might be our catalogue company, which would explain how they got our digits. Nonetheless, we've chosen not to answer and will continue to ignore their calls, as it baffles me why they can't simply leave a message when it's important. We do all our shopping online and have made it clear that we only want to be contacted via email. We certainly didn't consent to being bombarded with unsolicited phone calls!

This number has buzzed our mobile a staggering seven times earlier today, and each time we pick up, there’s utter silence on the other end. We tried dialling it back, only to be met with a message saying that it’s from someone regarding house shopping who will supposedly give us a ring later. If they’re so keen to communicate with us, why don’t they utter a word as soon as we answer? Quite baffling, if you ask me!

When you ring the number, it claims to be Otto House Shopping, and they assert that they'll get back to you-what a surprise! They keep insisting you haven't been billed for the call, and again promise a return call. It's baffling how they've gotten hold of our number-completely unrecognised! Unlike some similar cases, they don’t provide a way to opt out from their system either. We've had seven calls from them just this evening; the next time they ring, we’re ready to give them a piece of our mind!

This isn’t working at all; they've rung us yet again! The moment we inquired about which company was making the calls, we were told it was 'Bradford.' It then took a turn when they added 'acting on behalf of Debenhams,' who, it appears, were at fault for not removing our number from their listings.

Otto House Shopping are a company that manages several well-known catalogues, including Grattan and Freemans. We are customers of Freemans and have received quite a few calls from this number over the last few weeks! They ring us several times each day and never leave a message! It’s absolutely maddening! They’ve called as late as eight in the evening and even as late as nine or ten, which is just beyond reasonable! If they’re so eager to get in touch, why on earth won't they leave a simple message? It’s baffling!

Absolutely, that number belongs to catalogue firms. After enduring around twenty calls without a single response in the span of a month, when they eventually called me again, I decided to pick up. I kindly told them to "buzz off". I admit it was a bit rude, but guess what? They haven’t attempted to ring me since! So, I suppose in a way, it was effective!

This number has called us an outrageous number of times, only to disconnect as soon as we answer. After much persistence, we finally decided to engage and were utterly startled to hear another person on the line. We nearly dropped our tea in shock!

I’ve been getting calls from this number, and surprisingly, it's on behalf of FREEMANS Catalogue. The first thing they wanted was my name, which was a bit dodgy! Then they insisted on fishing for my date of birth and address, among other things. We flat out refused to comply. Honestly, this feels like an utterly ridiculous approach to sales and it really breaches the principles of data protection! When the woman claimed she needed my details for data protection, I couldn't help but think, "Yeah, right!" It's quite baffling!

This number has been ringing us repeatedly throughout the day for what feels like an eternity. We've mostly chosen to disregard calls from such unknown numbers, convinced that if it's genuinely important, they’ll leave a voicemail. Also, we’re associated with Freemans. We’ve removed our phone details from our account, so we'll keep an eye out to see if that makes a difference. What a right hassle this has become!

I've received about five calls from this number in the last six weeks. Each time, they ask for the same individual. We've repeatedly told them that they’ve got the wrong number, and they always apologise. Interestingly, this is the second time they've mentioned something about a delivery from Debenhams, this time regarding bunk beds. The woman on the line assured me that she'd remove our number from their list, but we'll see if that actually happens.
