It only rings a couple times and then cuts off. I hang up and block them, though I bet they’ll just switch to a different number.

For about two months now, I’ve been getting these calls quite often. At first, I picked up thinking it might be a scam, but then I just stopped answering. Later, I noticed my phone bill had extra fees each time I called back. Even worse, O2 told me that if I don’t answer and the call goes to voicemail, it still costs me. I asked them to block premium rate numbers, which they did, but they warned me the callers would just switch to different numbers they have on file. Honestly, this should be against the law; it’s really frustrating and needs to be put an end to.

Lately, I’ve been getting calls from loads of almost identical numbers. This one was just the same - it rang briefly and then cut off, probably hoping I'd call back. Definitely feels like a scam to me, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked it straight away!

Received a call that rang just once, so I tried calling them back but kept my number private. It picked up right away but all I got was a ringing sound with no answer. My phone showed the call was going through, but no one spoke. After about 10 seconds, I noticed I'd been charged £2.00 for the call! Definitely avoid calling this number back.
