Had a 29 min chat organising someone to pick up an envelope for me to send over to the Caribbean and then I get billed £27.23! Ridiculous.

They called claiming to link me to their sales team, but it just felt like a scam trying to keep me on the phone forever.

I think this number is one of those premium rate lines, maybe linked to a delivery service’s customer care team. When you call, they pick up but then stick you on hold for ages, like 20 minutes or so, saying they’re looking into your issue, all the while racking up charges. It feels like a sneaky way for them to make a quick buck.

Just like many folks, I got hit with a fee for ringing this number out of the blue. Definitely looks like a scam to me.

I rang DHL to ask about shipping costs and was totally caught out by some extra fees from my mobile network. The automated message when I connected didn’t clearly say anything about extra charges… ended up paying a bit over £5 for just 8 minutes on the phone. Watch out for that!

I needed to organise a pickup for some documents sent to me with postage already covered by the sender. Tried sorting it online but couldn’t find any way to schedule a collection that was prepaid. So I rang the number given on DHL’s site, and later, to my surprise, I found a £4.71 charge slapped onto my EE phone bill with no heads-up about any fees when I made that call. This feels like a proper rip-off and a bit dodgy if you ask me. Honestly thinking about putting DHL through small claims court just to make a point about this nonsense.

I had to ring this number because DHL didn’t manage to deliver my parcels - ended up paying more for the call than the delivery fee itself!

Didnt pick up, figured if it was something urgent they'd drop a voicemail. They actually did... sounded like a Chinese language or something! Just blocked it.

This is a PREMIUM number. Calling 08442480828 is split into two charges: an access fee which changes with your provider, sometimes going as high as 67p per minute. You don’t get any alert before the call costs start. I use O2UK.

I received a call where the person on the other end asked me to verify that I was indeed “My name” and then abruptly disconnected. I'm baffled as to how they were aware of my name in the first place!

08442480828 is that blasted DHL number. I called a few times to sort out the payment online and organise delivery. My mobile got charged £41 just for 5 calls! To dodge this, best to do everything online directly with DHL or just pop down to their drop box.

I got this number off someone to ring DHL about sending back some clothes to Italy for free. Had no clue DHL would charge for the call, and the woman on the line was surprisingly nice, asking if there was anything else she could assist with. Wish I'd known the call would end up costing me £6.50!

DHL's premium helpline feels like a total con, as it’s quite the task to actually get through to a real person who can help with any issues you might have. Honestly, I’ve had enough of them and won’t be using their services in the future. Honestly, HERMES has always proven to be far more reliable in my experience.

I got hit with a surprise fee of £7.60 just for a quote from DHL - which is mad because actually posting the parcel cost only £6! Really don’t know how DHL divides that charge up. Bit confusing it seems.

I've just received my latest bill from EE, and I'm less than thrilled. They've slapped me with a charge of £20.20 for a mere eight brief calls to this number over the span of an hour. To be honest, I can't quite recall why I dialled it in the first place. While I can't definitively say that I didn't, it's frustrating and feels like a proper rip-off!

Ugh! I wanted to check the price for sending a package, so I rang the number listed on their website. After a chat, they passed me onto a different number for pricing details. When I dialled that one, it just wasn’t connected. Ended up paying £1.90 plus VAT for zero info. Just like some folks here have said, I wouldn’t trust DHL to send anything ever again. If their site can’t even give simple price info right, how can they be relied on to deliver properly?

Absolutely shocking bunch. They had me waiting forever and then just dropped the call, which ended up charging me nearly £2. On top of that, the customer service person was so slow at explaining things and tried to keep me talking for ages. Now it makes sense why - they’re charging almost a pound more per minute than those dodgy chat lines and adult channels! Total rip-off.

I got charged £7 just to book a pickup with DHL. The first call got cut halfway, charging me £3.50, and then when I tried again, it took another £3.50. I even have an account with them, but their online system refused to work that day. Now it makes sense why. Honestly, they’re such a rip off.

I reckon this number is affiliated with DHL. I gave them a bell to sort out an issue with my delivery, and I ended up being charged £7.92 - quite a hefty fee for hanging on the line for what felt like an eternity. My call lasted a staggering 35 minutes and 59 seconds! Essentially, let’s just say I was on the phone for nearly 36 minutes! It feels like a right swindle if you ask me, taking advantage of the public like that.

I suspect this number belongs to Yodel. I dialled in to keep tabs on my deliveries, and they ended up charging me 0.19p and £1.83 for simultaneous calls. To add insult to injury, I noticed another two calls were billed at the same time: one for 0.63p and another whopping £17.43! When I added these to the charges from the number 08442480828, it came to a staggering £20 on my phone bill. Absolutely ridiculous - it feels like Yodel are nothing but a bunch of con artists!
