9 yearsI rang HMRC using the number I found, and somehow ended up being put through on that same line, only to get hit with a £19.00 fee. It's pretty clear HMRC are part of this scam, ‘cause they couldn’t care less about people getting scammed like this.HMRC9 yearsHave you managed to sort things out with HMRC over this? I recently spoke to them after getting billed for ringing to sort my self assessment tax. They told me it’s some sort of third-party redirect service and said it’s nothing to do with them. But surely they’ve got some responsibility to make sure people aren’t phoning dodgy numbers instead of HMRC themselves! It just feels like they’re washing their hands of it.HMRC9 yearsI called HMRC about my self assessment and this woman told me I was speaking to the wrong department, then she transferred me to someone else. Turns out, now I’ve been charged for that call! If they say they’re gonna pass you on to someone else, just hang up and call back yourself, it’s safer that way!HM Revenue and CustomsHMRC9 yearsIs this number really from HMRC or could it be some kind of scam?HMRC9 yearsOn 12th Jan 2018, I phoned HMRC about my self assessment tax using an 0300 number. During the call, I got passed around to a few different agents. Later, when I looked at my phone bill, I saw a charge of £17.71 for a call to 08439 033088, which I never dialled and didn’t know at all. I googled the number and found out it’s been linked to HMRC scams. Really dodgy stuff!HMRC9 yearsGot charged twice for £24.00 and then another £13.20, it’s just ridiculous. I honestly don’t get why HMRC doesn’t look into these scams properly. How this stuff still goes on is beyond me, but I’m pretty sure they couldn’t care less.HRMC9 yearsWhen I looked up “HMRC contact numbers” on Google, it showed me the local tax office info with this particular phone number listed. It’s either that HMRC actually uses these expensive premium rate lines or something fishy is going on with how Google is listing these numbers. I’ve got screenshots to prove what I saw and my phone bill clearly shows the charge from calling that number. I’m planning to get in touch with HMRC to get their side of the story.GoogleHMRC9 yearsI ended up paying £16 for a call I don’t remember making. Last week I phoned HMRC, and since the number I found online matches this one, I’m thinking they might be connected somehow. Quite confusing really.HMRC9 yearsI got a call with a pre-recorded voice saying it was HMRC. It’s definitely a scam trying to get you to ring a costly phone number. Best thing to do is just ignore it and end the call straight away!HMRC9 yearsCalled HMRC on 27th October and it cost me £10.14, can you believe that? Ridiculous charge!HMRC9 yearsBeware, this is one of those premium rate "call forwarding" scams. When you ring the 0843 number, you're actually being charged extra just so some dodgy operator can connect you through to HMRC. Don't fall for it!HMRC9 yearsI got hit with a £25 bill after a 33 minute call, and when I contacted HMRC, they told me that’s not even their phone number! Total rip off!HMRC9 yearsI just got a call saying it was HMRC, but they never mentioned it would be £2.50 per minute to talk to them. Pretty sneaky if you ask me!Revenue and CustomsHMRC9 yearsI just got a call saying it was from HMRC, but nowhere did they mention the charges upfront. Ended up paying £12.57 for a 24-minute call, mostly stuck waiting on hold. Weirdly, I didn’t call any 0843 number but that’s the one that popped up on my bill. Properly dodgy if you ask me.HMRC9 yearsI called HMRC using the number 0300 200 3300 but then later saw a charge for £10 on my phone bill from 0843 903 308. How did my call to Revenue and Customs end up costing me so much? This really confused me.HMRC9 yearsSo, this number turns out to be HMRC. I rang them the other day and was gobsmacked to see a £20 charge on my bill for the call. What really annoyed me was being kept waiting in a queue for about 20 minutes - not like I wanted to hang about that long! They really ought to let folks know about these charges beforehand. Honestly, it’s pretty shocking.HMRC9 yearsThey went ahead and took money from me.9 yearsIt's the HMRC calling, what a bloody laugh. They’ll squeeze every penny from you if they get the chance.9 yearsI didn't make any call to this number but still got billed £8 for it. Quite confusing and frustrating!9 yearsDid anyone else get hit with a £12 fee after calling this number? I wasn’t expecting to be charged at all!9 yearsHas anyone got any info on who this number belongs to? 08439033088 got me billed over £13, what’s that about?Submit Your Own Report (0843 903 3088)
