08443350424 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 08443350424 👆 is reported as connected to a well-documented insurance scam linked to third-party companies obtaining personal details, often following mobile phone purchases. Victims commonly describe unsolicited calls pressuring them to switch or confirm insurance, with dubious firms like "E-bell United Kingdom" implicated. Payments are taken without proper documentation, leading to cancelled cards and bank disputes. While network providers like O2 deny involvement, the issue appears related to data leaks from retailers. Authorities such as Trading Standards and the police have been alerted, and customers are advised not to share information or succumb to pressure, instead contacting their bank and official bodies promptly. Seeking advice from consumer protection agencies and reporting suspicious activity is strongly recommended to avoid financial loss.
Reports on phone number 08443350424
10 yearsThe moment I reached out to trading standards, they claimed they had no knowledge of this company. Yet, according to a report I stumbled upon on the BBC website, it appears they’ve been under investigation alongside the police for a full two years! I reckon it’s high time they reimbursed me.BBC10 yearsWe've reached out to O2's customer support via email and have also notified BBC Watchdog regarding this issue. Hoping this proves useful to someone out there!O2BBC Watchdog10 yearsWe received a call from this company on the same day we purchased our phone from Phone's Four U. The funds were deducted from our account, yet the insurance paperwork has yet to arrive. We have cancelled our bank card and plan to reach out to them soon to try and recover our funds. I popped into Phone's Four U earlier today to raise this issue with them too. Additionally, we’ve sent an email to Watchdog. Fingers crossed that I’ll see my money returned!PhoneFour UPhone 'Watchdog.11 yearsI would like to terminate our insurance policy, please.11 yearsFollowing on from this, we’ve finally managed to connect with a representative using the number we dialled. The individual, identified as “Leanne Green,” claimed to be affiliated with E-Bell, an advisory firm in the United Kingdom. However, all the evidence we’ve encountered suggests otherwise. We've also asked for the email address [email protected], thinking you might find it beneficial, particularly as our conversations with the bank regarding this matter could assist in reclaiming our funds.Leanne GreenE - BellUnited Kingdom11 yearsI’ve just encountered a thoroughly similar scam and, in hindsight, I wish we’d trusted our gut feeling. We've had to cancel our card, but sadly, they managed to take a payment before we caught on. The bank assures us that they ought to be able to help us get that money back. The chap who called was Anthony Davis, and Stacey was the agent on the line. It's rather frustrating, to be honest, as we had a nagging doubt that something was off.Anthony DavisStacey12 yearsI just had a chat with O2, and it seems that what I suspected is indeed the case. If you don’t check a specific box on your contract-which I might have overlooked-it results in your details being shared. It appears that CW is operating in a somewhat dubious manner, making it seem somewhat legitimate. How frustrating! It appears that this is the source of the leak. However, I'm planning to drop a letter to Dunstone to raise my concerns regardless.O2CWDunstone12 yearsI just wanted to provide an update regarding our earlier communication back in January 2010. Can you believe it? We actually received the E Bell United Kingdom warranty and certificate to confirm that our phone was indeed covered. However, it seems like a complete farce, as I've come to realise from other messages that this coverage is non-existent. It’s all rather preposterous! These individuals somehow managed to siphon funds from our account, despite the fact that we promptly cancelled our card following their call. I've lodged a complaint with the fraud department at our bank, as I’m quite concerned that they might attempt to withdraw more funds via direct debit next week.E BellUnited Kingdom12 yearsI’ve had a remarkably similar experience! I keep getting calls from a "Leanne" on the number 07878180721, trying to persuade me to ditch my current insurance for hers, claiming I could save £70, all under the guise of "E-bell". When I called the number listed on the website, the person who answered seemed completely baffled and didn't have a clue about Leanne. They even feigned that they wouldn’t be back until later and then asked if she could take my number instead. Quite the dodgy business, I must say!Leanne12 yearsI've fallen victim to this company as well. It's hard to believe that a bank could have any sense of morality-what a peculiar thought! Has anyone managed to identify the financial institution they use for their shady operations? Perhaps we could reach out to our bank for some assistance in uncovering this.12 yearsI experienced a strikingly similar issue, it seems there might be a breach at Carphone Warehouse. I plan to head back to the store shortly to speak with the chap who took care of our account; I’ve got some matters to discuss with him! The individual who contacted me introduced himself as Chris Owen, just thought I’d share that in case it’s of use to anyone else!Carphone WarehouseChris Owen12 yearsI received a call from this number too, and regrettably, we ended up sharing our account information. I've tried calling them back, but there’s been no response. We've just entered into a contract with Phones for You, but I think we’ll be pulling out of that deal. Just a warning to everyone out there!Phones for You12 yearsIt's worth noting that the issue at hand isn't tied to your network provider; rather, it's the third-party firms you're dealing with that seem to be spilling your personal information to these callers. O2 certainly doesn't engage in unsolicited calls to sell insurance. It's best to keep your details under wraps when they reach out. If you do happen to receive a call from these individuals, try to gather as much information as you can and report it to O2. They’ll channel the details to their legal team for further investigation.O212 yearsIf you're after the latest on this, just pop "mobile Swansea insurance con" into a search engine and you’ll find what you need!SwanseaSubmit Your Own Report (0844 335 0424)
