08444482049 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 08444482049 👆 is reported as a persistent and widespread scam involving unauthorised weekly or monthly charges of around £4.50 to £9 on Vodafone bills, labelled as "videos" or premium-rate subscriptions that users never consented to. Vodafone customers frequently experience difficulties obtaining refunds or effective blocks, with the network often disclaiming responsibility by referring users to the third-party provider, which is hard to contact or unresponsive. Many describe frustrating attempts to unsubscribe, limited support from Vodafone, and mistrust in customer service. The issue is under investigation by regulatory authorities, but continues to affect a significant number of consumers, who are advised to formally complain, monitor bills closely, block suspect numbers if possible, and pursue refunds through official channels such as the Phone-paid Services Authority.

Just saw a £4.50 charge for videos on my bill. Not happy about that at all!

So, for about a month now, every Tuesday just after half past twelve, Vodafone has been taking £4.50 off my account - adds up to £31.50 in total. I've contacted them, and while they did manage to stop the payments, they haven’t given me back the money they already took. Is this something only Vodafone can sort out, or is there more I need to do?

My Vodafone bill had eight charges of £4.50 each from videos linked to the number 08444482049. Vodafone eventually blocked the number, though it took quite a bit of effort to get them to refund the money.

Loads of folks have been complaining about unexpected charges from some company I’ve never heard of. But I received an email from what seems to be their main contact: customercare@globway[###]. Might be worth dropping them a line and seeing what’s going on.

Avoid ringing that number. You can contact them instead at this email uk@brickoffers[###] and they have to give you a refund and sort out some compensation.

Every week my bill has been creeping up by £4.50, listed under 'other charges'. When I looked into it, it mentioned a video tied to the number 08444482049. Pretty frustrating to see it added without clear notice.

I’ve been hit with a £25 charge this month. Rang Vodafone and just like someone else said, they put it on a bar list but said I’ve gotta get in touch with the company myself. I’ve also put in an official complaint but apparently I’m eligible for an upgrade now, so I’m not sure if they’re actually going to sort anything out.

I’ve noticed £4.50 has been taken from me three separate times this month. Any idea how to get it to stop?

It shows up on my bill as videos. Even if you block or delete them, Vodafone still charges £4.50 and say it’s not their fault so they won’t refund. They only recommend adding barring to your plan, which isn’t much use since the number isn’t premium and it would block loads of UK businesses too. I’d suggest filing official complaints or cancelling your contract when it’s up for renewal.

I’VE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH MONEY BEING TAKEN FROM MY ACCOUNT WITHOUT PERMISSION. Vodaphone told me that just by deleting a text from a strange number, I was agreeing to a £4.50 charge, which happened repeatedly (like every couple of days, seven times in total). I never gave anyone the okay to take money out like that. They call it “third party charges” or something. After lots of phone calls and a formal complaint, Vodafone finally put the money back, but it was a real headache and took ages. I reported it to the Phone Paid Services Authority too, but honestly, it didn’t seem to do much at all. I’m really unhappy about this and thinking about going further with it. Maybe those of us affected could band together and do something proper about it? Nobody should have to go through this! Any suggestions?

This site here is http://uk.brickoffers.com/?PHPSESSID=f62444df6195b373352fcb7b39 if you want to check it out. Vodafone are fully aware it’s a rip-off but won’t admit it or stop it, so people keep losing money. It’s a huge con that benefits the company based in Europe as well as the phone provider. Totally dodgy!

I noticed two separate charges of £4.50 on my Vodafone bill, spaced about a week apart, that I never signed up for. When I got in touch with Vodafone, they told me to get in touch with https://psauthority.org.uk/ if I wanted a refund. The customer service rep couldn’t even promise these dodgy charges wouldn’t pop up again from the same source. It's really shocking how poorly Vodafone’s handled this. Loads of people have been dealing with this issue for years now, and still Vodafone seems to do nothing about it.

This number somehow put a £4.50 fee on my Vodafone bill. To my surprise, Vodafone were actually pretty good about it this time. They looked into it, blocked the number, and got rid of the unwanted charge.

Last month, I noticed two charges of £9 each on my Vodafone bill that I hadn’t authorised. I contested the charges and Vodafone took them off but just said it looked like a scam without giving me any details. This month, my bill showed three separate £9 charges totalling £27. When I raised the issue again, Vodafone wouldn’t give me a refund or a proper explanation, just saying it was a third party outside their control. After a lot of back and forth, I finally got through to their “Resolutions Department”. They told me they’d cancelled the subscription for me but said I would need to contact PAYPLUS to get my money back. I refused to do that and demanded my PAC code to switch providers, which they then agreed to alongside processing the refund. I’ve been with Vodafone since 1994, but that’s definitely going to change now!

Strangely, there's a £9 charge on my phone bill even though I haven't bought anything recently. Vodafone says it was made by a third party so they can’t refund me, probably some sort of scam. They’ve opened a security investigation now. I’m just going to wait and see how it goes. Honestly, I really want my money back - if not, I’m gonna have to take this up with Ofcom.

Got a text saying I'd signed up for some video service, which I definitely didn't. Then saw a £9 fee on my Vodafone bill. Rang their customer service; the first woman was really rude and kept saying it was my fault for subscribing. Asked her to block the service but she wouldn't do it or help at all. So I ended the call and dialled again. The second person listened properly and calmly, told me to contact the video site's customer support and ask for a refund. If they refuse, Vodafone would step in and refund me. He also suggested setting up a Credit Alert bar to keep an eye on charges so no unexpected extras get added. Really useful tip!

I really wish they’d take action against all these scammers. Money’s been disappearing from my Vodaphone account for odd charges like video use or supposed charity donations. Every time I try to sort it out with Vodaphone, it’s such a headache. Most of the time I end up speaking to overseas staff who don’t speak English very well, which makes everything even harder. Honestly, I’m considering switching to a different provider that’s actually based here in the UK because dealing with this is just too frustrating.

I just had Vodafone take money from my account without my permission, or anything I bought off that number. I called their customer service and the agent told me it was for some video purchase but I haven't bought a thing. When I asked how to stop it, they said texting them would cost me £4.50. Feels like a dodgy deal between Vodafone and some other company. This really should be looked into and those responsible held accountable.

If you find yourself stuck, head over to fun4vid.mobi and try logging in. You won’t have a password at first, so just hit the “forgot password” link and get them to send one to your phone. Once you get in, make sure to cancel any subscription you didn’t want. That’s how I sorted it out. Also, I reported the number 03333003556 because it seemed suspicious. Just a heads up, texting STOP to 65065 doesn’t actually stop anything - I tried and it didn’t do a thing. So, be careful!

Hey all, just a heads up - this is a premium number. You should get in touch with Vodafone to block it straight away, then contact PhonePayPlus (their number’s on their website) to officially report the issue and try to get a refund. I was also paying £9 every week! Vodafone said there’s nothing they can do since premium-rate numbers operate like that.

I had no password when I tried to log in at fun4vid.mobi, so I just clicked on the "forgot password" link. They sent me a password straight to my phone, then I could log in and cancel the subscription. That’s how I got it sorted.

I had to deal with the same thing, so I went on fun4vid.mobi to sort it out. Since I didn't have a password, I clicked on "forgot password" and asked them to send a new one to my phone.

I’m seriously annoyed with this whole thing, they’ve charged my phone for stuff I never even looked at. I wasn’t even using my phone at the time as I was away on holiday when these payments showed up. Tried sorting it with my network but they can’t get through to anyone to sort a dispute. No one picks up the phone and I keep getting messages from all sorts of random numbers. It’s shocking they can do this behind your back. In the end, I had to switch my number just to stop the scam because I didn’t trust that it would actually end otherwise!!!
