Reports on phone number 08430143200
5 yearsI've noticed a charge of more than £3 for a call to 08430143200, but I never actually made that call. It seems like one of those scam numbers. Can someone tell me how to block calls both to and from this number straight away?5 yearsI reckon this number was what I dialled to ring up someone in Australia. The call lasted just over half an hour, about 30 minutes and 37 seconds, and it cost me £6.71. Does that work out cheaper than going through BT?Australia5 yearsAvoid calling this number, it's a total scam. They claim it’s just 1p per minute but ended up charging me £12.50 on my bill!6 yearsI rang Germany recently thinking it'd be around 1 or 2p per min with maybe a 35-50p connect fee, but the bill I got was shocking! No way am I going down this route again. Proper daylight robbery if you ask me.Germany6 yearsHaha, funny thing about JustCall - it’s meant to charge just 1p a minute when calling France... so mine should’ve been 71p max, not over £33! What a rip off! Grrrr!JustCallFrance6 yearsI’ve been looking into these plans too, trying to find something affordable that’s legit. Mostly I call Israel and Switzerland, so if anyone knows a good one that’s not a ripoff, please shout. It’s hard to tell which offers are genuine these days!SwitzerlandIsrael6 yearsCalling the Happy Number to the USA will cost you 1p per minute, on top of the usual BT connection fees. Here’s what BT says about calling 0843 numbers: If you’re on a BT landline, you’ll be charged 12p a minute plus the extra service fee. For those using a BT mobile, the cost goes up to 30p per minute plus the service charge. Just keep in mind, 0843 numbers are not covered under any BT call packages, whether it’s on your landline or mobile.USABT6 yearsI’d steer clear of this number if I were you-it’s a total con! Definitely not worth your time. Just another dodgy spam operation. A real disgrace, to be honest. What’s wrong with BT and Sky for letting this slide?BTSky6 yearsBeware of this number, it charges a ridiculous 16p per min plus extra fees... just block it asap... R JacobsR Jacobs7 yearsCaution with 0843 014 3200! They claim it's only 1 penny per minute, plus a 5p connection fee, but what they conveniently omit is that the 5p is charged every minute as well. This effectively turns that 1p into a hefty 6p per minute, on top of whatever your phone network decides to add. I ended up shelling out £1.84 for a 14-minute conversation, thinking I’d be paying maybe 20p plus my regular provider fee for an 0843 call. I’m with Virgin’s call anytime bundle, so I assumed 0843 numbers wouldn’t cost me a thing, but clearly, I was mistaken. Moral of the story: make sure to read the fine print and do a bit of digging for reviews before diving into these phone services, and don’t forget to check with your own network provider about their charges. A lesson reinforced, but thankfully, it hasn't set me back too much.Virgin7 yearsSpotted a charge on my BT bill that was for some international calls, labelled Justcall. Weird thing is, almost all of the 16p per minute was just a BT connection fee, like 15p of it! I remember BT used to only charge once for connecting the call. Seems like they've switched up how they bill now. Proper rip off from BT if you ask me!JustcallBT8 yearsIt said call rates to Canada would be 1p per minute, but I ended up getting charged 16p each minute. Total rip off!Canada8 yearsWarning! This number is a scam and calling it to overseas costs way more than BT rates - not even a single penny charge! Avoid it!8 yearsI was shocked to see a charge of £7.21 for a call that lasted a mere 51 minutes to another country, especially when I was led to believe it would only cost 1p per minute! I strongly advise against using this number-it's definitely a scam!8 yearsI called what was meant to be a cheap 1p per minute number to ring overseas, but ended up with a bill of £7.21 for just under an hour. Feels like a total rip-off!9 yearsI’ve just received my latest BT bill and noticed some charges for calling the number 08430143200. I rang it to make an international call and was slapped with a rate of 13p per minute, even though they claim it’s only 1p per minute. Has anyone come across a trustworthy provider that won’t pull this sort of trick?10 yearsI used this as a code to call France, and it actually ended up being cheaper than calling straight through. Definitely saved me some money.France10 yearsI was billed more than £40 for a phone call I never actually made! I’ve told O2 about it and they’re looking into the matter. Fingers crossed they sort it out soon.O210 yearsNot sure who this caller is, but I noticed I got billed two times, one for 92p and another for £3.50.10 yearsI've looked up this number, and it seems to be linked to "Cheap Calls." Apparently, this one is used specifically for making landline calls to Germany.Germany10 yearsI got charged £5.76 for a 50 minute call I never made, seems dodgy to me. BT really needs to look into this!BT11 yearsOn my phone bill for December, I noticed almost £9.00 billed for 6 calls to a number I had never heard of before. I definitely didn’t make those calls. Feels like another con that the network providers can’t seem to catch? ELVELV11 yearsI just noticed a charge of over £11 for a call I supposedly made to this number, but I really have no idea what for!Submit Your Own Report (0843 014 3200)
