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.

This month, I've received charges amounting to £25. I reached out to Vodafone, and much like others have noted, they've added me to a barred list but advised that I should get in touch with the company directly. I've lodged a formal complaint and discovered that I'm eligible for an upgrade. Now I'm curious if they will actually take any action on this.

I've noticed some charges appearing on my bill that are listed as videos. Even if I try to block or remove these, it still results in a £4.50 fee, which Vodafone claims they're not liable to refund. Their only advice is to add a barring feature to my account, which is far from useful since the number isn't premium and it would end up blocking numerous legitimate UK businesses as well. I recommend logging a formal complaint or considering the cancellation of your contract when it comes up for renewal with Vodafone.

Vodafone is well aware that this is a con, yet they continue to turn a blind eye while these fraudsters siphon funds right from your bank. It's an enormous scam that rakes in profits for a foreign entity and benefits the mobile operator in the process.

I noticed two charges of £4.50 popping up on my Vodafone bill, spaced a week apart, and I certainly hadn’t signed up for anything like that. When I reached out to Vodafone, they told me to get in touch with https://psauthority.org.uk/ to sort out a refund. The representative I spoke to couldn’t even reassure me that these unwanted charges wouldn’t happen again. Honestly, the service from Vodafone has been nothing short of appalling. This seems to be an ongoing issue affecting numerous customers for at least the last couple of years, and yet Vodafone has done nothing to resolve it.

Last month, I noticed a couple of sneaky £9 charges on my Vodafone bill. I raised a fuss with Vodafone, and they knocked those charges off, claiming it was some sort of scam, but they failed to elaborate further. However, when I checked my bill this month, three £9 charges appeared, totaling £27! When I challenged Vodafone again, they flatly refused to refund me or give a clear explanation, asserting it was an issue with a third party beyond their oversight. After quite a bit of back and forth, I finally reached their “Resolutions Department,” who shockingly told me they cancelled my subscription without even asking for my approval. They insisted I had to reach out to PAYPLUS to sort a refund. I wasn’t having any of that, so I demanded my PAC code to switch providers instead. Miraculously, it was only then that they consented to process the refund. I've been loyal to Vodafone since '94, but it's time for me to take my custom elsewhere!

I've noticed a mysterious charge of £9 on my phone bill, yet I've made no such purchases! Vodafone claims it's a transaction from a third party, so they won't issue a refund (sounds a bit dodgy to me). They've opened a security investigation, so I’ll just have to hang tight and see how that pans out. I really hope they can sort this out and return my funds. Honestly, if I don't see my money back soon, I might just have to take this up with Ofcom!

Received a £9 charge on my phone bill, yet I've made no purchases whatsoever. Vodafone claims they can't issue a refund since it's related to a third-party transaction (definitely feels like a scam). They’ve opened a security case, so I suppose it’s just a matter of waiting to see how this unfolds.

I recently got a message confirming my subscription to a video service, which I know I never signed up for. To make matters worse, I found a £9 charge on my Vodafone bill. When I reached out to customer support, the woman I spoke with was incredibly unhelpful and outright rude, insisting it was my fault for the subscription. I asked her to block any further charges, but she wouldn’t do anything at all and ended the call rather abruptly. I called again and, thankfully, the next representative was a breath of fresh air. He listened attentively and advised me to contact them again for a refund. He mentioned that if they refuse, Vodafone would step in to sort it out. He also recommended setting up a Credit Alert bar to help manage my bills and prevent any unexpected charges in the future.

I strongly urge for action against all scammers. Recently, I've had funds siphoned from my Vodafone account, supposedly for video usage or contributions to charity, which has left me utterly exasperated while attempting to resolve the issue with Vodafone. Unfortunately, the majority of the calls are answered by overseas representatives, making communication quite challenging due to language barriers. It’s honestly pushing me towards the idea of switching to another provider with support right here in the UK.

Visit fun4vid.mobi and sign in. You won’t have a password, so click on the “forgot password” link. They’ll text you a new password to your phone. Once you’ve received it, log in and make sure to cancel your subscription; that’s how I managed it. I’ve also flagged their number, 03333003556. Just a heads up-if you try texting STOP to 65065, it won’t go through. It’s a bit of a rigmarole.

Hello everyone! Just a heads up, it seems I've been hit with a premium call charge. I strongly suggest you ring up Vodafone to block these pesky numbers. After that, get in touch with Phone Pay Plus (you can find their contact info on their website) to lodge an official complaint and hopefully get your money back. I’ve found myself being billed a whopping £9 each week! It’s worth noting that Vodafone might not be able to assist much since that’s just how premium-rate numbers operate.

They keep sending me messages from various random numbers, which is infuriating. It’s outrageous that they can pull this off without any notification. I've had no choice but to change my number to put a stop to this nonsense, as I just couldn’t trust the situation any longer!
