This number rings me like 3 or 4 times daily, and I always let it go to voicemail because it's so irritating. Finally, I put a block on it, so hopefully, they’ll stop bothering me now.

Just got a call from this number again, but as soon as I answered, they just hung up without saying a word. I've already blocked it but they keep trying. What a pain!

I've had four missed calls in the last fortnight (and still counting). Given that our mobile number is registered with the Telephone Preference Service, and considering these are new callers, I'm quite curious to know how they obtained our number.

I have had two missed calls from this number.

Was driving so I didn’t pick up, but it sounds like they didn’t hang up properly. Got a voicemail with some swearing in the background, someone even said “they’re worse than the bloody Africans”. Definitely adding this number to my block list.

This number has been ringing me loads since last week. I finally picked up today and after a quiet pause, some bloke asked for me by name and claimed he was with O2!! I just ended the call straight away!!

I've been getting calls on my right number loads of times a day, but I just don't pick up.

O2 keeps ringing me non stop and I havent asked for any of it!

You persist in phoning me without speaking when I answer the call.

Kindly cease this behavior at once.

Could you kindly request that they cease calling and messaging me at once?

I am alleging that I have a connection with O2 and I am interested in understanding how they obtained my personal information.

Received a call earlier today from a number that rang twice. They claimed to be from Oval Energy, asking if we'd be interested in switching our supplier. We did some digging on three different comparison websites, but it seems there’s no record of such a company. Quite odd, isn't it?

I've noticed that someone keeps calling my wife's mobile. When I answered last time, I strongly advised them to stop bothering us. I sincerely hope they've understood the message and realize that their intentions might be deceitful. It's possible that they're running some kind of fraudulent scheme.

Seems like the calls are coming from 02, my mobile network. I usually just ignore and hang up, but sometimes it’s really annoying depending on the time they ring. I asked them to stop calling but they refuse to remove me from their list. Honestly, it feels like harassment.

I was sick of this number keep ringin me, so I decided to use the call blacklist app. It’s a great app, now whenever they try to call, it just blocks straight away and my phone doesn’t even buzz. Definitely made life easier!

This number keeps popping up on my phone almost daily, so I've started ignoring it altogether.

They were instructed by fraudsters to dial 0121.

I get called around 3 or 4 times every week, pretty regular stuff.

I just ignored the call and gonna block this number as well.

I received a suspicious phone call from someone attempting to sell my daughter a phone package and asking for personal information. I immediately blocked the number as it was clearly a scam.

Yeah, it's O2 alright. I called them back after they rang me last time, giving out my info and everything. I even told their sales team not to get in touch anymore, and they said they wouldn’t bother me again. Well, guess what? They lied, because this morning alone I got three calls from them. Every time I pick up, no one says a word. Honestly, this is so annoying, I won’t be staying with O2 anymore. Just terrible service!

They rang me twice while I was on my lunch break, but I didn’t pick up either time.

Just got a ring from O2, they were chatting about some Simply Only offers.

I usually just ignore calls if they don't bother leaving a message.

Honestly, O2 again!

I refuse to respond to this question. I am tired and frustrated with these foolish calls. Is there any way to block them?

I’ve had two calls from them already today, and yep, just got another one! They were giving out way too much info, kinda made me feel uneasy. Was torn about whether to just hang up but they kept pushing some sales stuff and then suddenly started asking about my parents’ contract type. Honestly, felt a bit sketchy!

I just let it ring, never picked up.

I just received a telephone call from this number and the person was asking about my daughter. They spoke to my husband on his mobile phone and shockingly, they even knew my daughter's name!

It sounded like it was from O2, looked pretty genuine to me.

I just let it ring and didn't pick up.

I ignored the call and didn’t pick up.

Was just curious to find out who rang me earlier.

For two consecutive days, I received a call on my mobile from the same number. On both occasions, I decided to ignore it as I suspected it was not important. Interestingly, the callers did not have any success when attempting to contact me on my landline. They claimed to be from O2, but I quickly clarified that they were indeed mistaken and politely told them to go away. Afterwards, they did not make any further attempts to contact me on my landline number. Overall, the situation concluded positively for me. :)

An individual who identified themselves as representing O2 made an attempt to solicit answers to security questions from me. They claimed to have loyalty offers specifically for me. The person's accent appeared to be a mixture of West African and London dialect. However, once I declined to provide any personal information, they abruptly ended the call without explanation.

I usually just ignore calls from unfamiliar numbers since they’re mostly from telemarketers or spam.

Persistent caller causing annoyance

Do not respond to them, it's a scam.

Be mindful as I was informed by a representative from o2 that the aforementioned number is not affiliated with o2.

UNRELIABLE A rather dubious set of individuals reached out to my wife on her mobile phone, claiming to be representatives of O2, and asked to speak to "Mrs Xxxxx". My wife struggled to hear them as they sounded like they were in a bustling call centre, so she passed her phone to me. The caller said, "I’ve got some great offers and other bits for you" - not exactly what one would expect from a professional conversation, I must say. He then insisted that he needed to "...guide you through DPA." Here’s how the exchange unfolded: Caller: "Are you the account holder?" Me: "No, that would be my wife." C: "Alright. Is her full name Yyyy Xxxxx?" Me: "Yes, that’s correct." C: "Cheers. You've now passed the DPA checks. Now, can you tell me if you have any tablets in your home?" Doesn’t that seem a tad too simplistic? I’ve worked in a call centre myself and know what a legitimate DPA check entails - this was laughable! They provided a name and then asked if it was correct, which is backward; they should have verified my identity first! I didn’t have to divulge any of my information at all - it was just a yes or no answer. Proper DPA procedures require that I disclose identification details in response to three distinct questions. So, I deftly avoided his inquiry regarding the contents of our home and drilled him about his O2 affiliation instead. He floundered when I posed two straightforward questions about O2 - (What’s the parent company of O2? Which country are they based in?) I made it clear that I doubted their legitimacy as O2 representatives, pointed out their flawed DPA process, and courteously concluded the call.

Absolutely agree, it was quite bothersome! We were cruising down the motorway when it rang and had to divert into a service area just to figure out what it could possibly entail!

Received a call from this number earlier today, but they didn't bother leaving a message. I reckon it’s one of those random calls since I’ve got all my regular contacts saved. If it turns out to be about some utility service, I’ll definitely be blocking them from now on! Cheers for the heads-up!

I received a call from this number, but the caller didn't leave any message. Quite odd, really!

Greetings! Just wanted to share my experience with Ovo Energy. I had a chat with their team earlier today, and I must say, they were incredibly accommodating. It's refreshing to see a company that doesn't splash out on television or magazine adverts, choosing instead to reinvest their resources for the benefit of their customers. I mentioned I'd give them another ring once we had done some more digging into their services. It started off as a bit of a chilly call, but we're rather chuffed with how things turned out, as they've managed to shave over £200 off our annual bills. Feeling rather pleased about it all! Cheers!

Received two calls from this number today. Each time we answered, it was just dead air on the line-no one uttered a single word. So, we decided to hang up.

Today, I received yet another couple of calls from this number. During the first attempt, there was silence on the other end, but the second time it was a gentleman requesting information about our electricity and gas provider. Strangely, he seemed to know exactly who we're already with. It was only afterwards that we recognised it was indeed the same number; otherwise, I'd have certainly voiced my annoyance at their incessant calling!
