3 yearsThose 0844 numbers are just as bad as the 09 ones for overcharging. You can reach Royal Mail through different numbers that don’t cost an arm and a leg.Royal Mail3 yearsI don’t remember ever ringing this number but somehow got hit with a £3.90 charge. I've been trying to get BT to block it for me.3 yearsGot charged £29.60 for just three calls - two lasted around 2 minutes and one was over half an hour. The caller claimed to be from the Royal Mail sorting office. Be careful with numbers like these.Royal Mail3 yearsEven though we never contacted this number, we were still charged 69p. It's infuriating how these scammers keep ripping people off.3 yearsI recently received a postcard informing me that I had to pay £2.50 for insufficient postage on a letter. To resolve the issue, I decided to find the contact number for my local sorting office. Unfortunately, the number I found was 08444740395, and after checking my phone bill, I discovered that this is a high-rate number. This situation is rather inconvenient and needs to be addressed by the Post Office.Post Office3 years08444740395 is not the official Royal Mail number. If you look it up on Google, it might come up as Royal Mail contact, but actually calling it will cost you extra just to be put through. This number isn’t linked to Royal Mail at all. I’d suggest looking up the genuine Royal Mail contact on their official website and double-check the number before you ring. Avoid using these kinds of third party services that just add extra charges.Royal Mail3 yearsI called what I thought was the Royal Mail to ask why my post hadn’t been arriving every day. Later, I checked my BT bill and was shocked to see I’d been charged more than £9 just for that call. Honestly, Royal Mail seems to be totally useless nowadays.Royal Mail4 yearsI don’t remember dialling this number at all yet somehow £5 has been taken from my account. If this number belongs to Royal Mail, honestly they should shut down. Charging like this is just awful.Royal Mail4 yearsCalled Royal Mail to check on a parcel I missed, and they kept me waiting on hold forever. After 8 minutes and a phone bill over £7, I was done.

The call cost me 0.28.Royal Mail Customer Services4 yearsI have been billed for this particular phone number.

How frustrating and disappointing Royal Mail is.Royal Mail4 yearsGot slapped with a £23 bill for this call, they somehow kept me on the line for about 28 and a half minutes! Can't believe my mobile company still hasn't blocked this number. Proper frustrated!5 yearsI used this number to track down a parcel I never got, cost me £18.88! Seeing the other comments now, it looks like this is a scam pretending to be Royal Mail. Total rip off!5 yearsI noticed a £10 charge on my bill for a call to 0844740395 that neither me nor my wife remembers making. Feels like some kind of scam. I’m going to get in touch with TalkTalk to sort it out.TalkTalk5 yearsI’m labeling this as at risk of costing you money since I noticed a weird fee of over £16 listed as an “access charge” on my phone bill. I don’t remember dialing that number myself, unless maybe I phoned them back after a missed call. Looks like it’s a real Royal Mail contact, but I found complaints about this floating around online going back to 2017 or so.Royal Mail5 yearsJust a heads up, this Royal Mail number looks legit but it’s actually an 0844, which means it’s a premium rate line. I called because I got a card saying I owed £2 for a parcel, but the call ended up costing me £5.70! Proper cheeky, feels like I’ve been scammed.Royal Mail5 yearsBeware of those 0844 numbers, they're proper pricey if you call them from your mobile. I ended up paying £7 just to get through to Royal Mail about a parcel that hadn't arrived yet. Feels like they design these calls to drag on ages, probably to make more money from us. Total con, really.Royal Mail5 yearsIts a real royal mail number alright but the call charges are way too high and the whole automated system is pretty pointless. I dont see how anyone can check a redelivery without paying a fortune. Proper annoyed and pissed off about it. They really ought to tell people it’s a premium rate number before they call.Royal Mail5 yearsI rang this number to check on a parcel and ended up getting charged £22 just because I was left on hold waiting to speak to someone. Honestly, it’s ridiculous! How can they expect people to pay that much just for asking about their own service? And it’s supposed to be a Royal Mail contact number, no less!Royal Mail5 yearsGot a call about a parcel from Royal Mail, didn't expect any extra fees. Imagine my shock when a bill for £9.50 turned up out of nowhere! Feels like I've been ripped off. Just received the invoice today.Royal Mail5 yearsPlease do not make a call to this number as you may have to wait for a long time and be charged at a higher rate. I had to pay £45, which is absolutely unacceptable. I have already lodged a complaint with Royal Mail, initially through email. However, I plan to contact them again using a different number to hear their response.Royal Mail5 yearsGot a charge of £5.37 from this number, no clue what it’s about. Tried calling Virgin Media for some answers, but all they kept saying was I must’ve dialled that number by mistake. Frustrating!Virgin Media6 yearsI contacted this number to inquire about the status of a package sent via special delivery, which was supposed to arrive but didn't. Despite the three-day delay in delivery, I didn't raise a claim as I thought Covid-related issues may have been a factor. However, I recently discovered that I was charged £9.69 for the phone call. As a result, I will be expressing my dissatisfaction with Royal Mail in a written complaint. Signed, PJ Baldwin.Royal MailPJ Baldwin6 yearsBloody Royal Mail are a proper nightmare! They lose your parcel most of the time and then expect you to ring some expensive number to find out where it’s gone. What a joke of a service.Royal Mail6 yearsI have noticed a charge of £5.45 on my current bill for this call. It is quite frustrating, as I had to make the call to inquire about a parcel that was not delivered. Can you believe it? The parcel was actually lost by them! And on top of that, I had to pay for a premium rate call to inform them about it! Needless to say, I won't be using the parcel service offered by Royal Mail again. What a disappointment!Royal Mail6 yearsUnbelievable! Those deceitful people charged me an outrageous £43.69 for a mere couple of minutes on the phone after making me hold for over half an hour. It's an absolute joke! They should definitely have their number removed.6 yearsI was extremely frustrated when Royal Mail added £40 in charges to my bill. It took me a whole hour and 20 minutes just to get through to their customer service, and to make matters worse, I was charged for this wasted time. I was contacting them regarding a lost parcel valued at £60, so in total, this ordeal ended up costing me £100. It's absolutely infuriating.Royal Mail6 yearsI rang Royal Mail about a parcel that never turned up, spent about 13 minutes on the phone. Ended up with a bill of £12.62, didn’t realise it was a premium rate number. The number seemed legit but calling again will definitely be pricey.Royal Mail6 yearsI noticed an unexpected charge of £-75 on my bill dated September 24th for a call that I have no record of on my phone. Thankfully, BT has kindly credited this amount on my bill, and I am grateful for their assistance.BT6 yearsI rang this number to ask about a delivery and it ended up costing me nearly 30 quid, even though the call was pretty short. It's shocking how expensive these calls are. If I’d known the price beforehand, I definitely wouldn’t have called. There’s no info on what the per minute charge is. Someone marked the number as safe but just watch out for the cost, it’s ridiculous.6 yearsI rang this number because there’d been no post delivered in my neighbourhood for over a week, which was really worrying. The lady on the other end checked the postcode and confirmed there was a problem. She mentioned they’d arranged a special delivery for me. But considering it was their mistake I was chasing up, I wasn’t expecting to get hit with a charge - and nowhere did it say I was calling a premium rate number. Properly annoyed, they fail to do their job and then expect you to pay to find out why!6 yearsAvoid ringing them as they aren’t any help with your questions and end up costing you loads.6 yearsWas stuck on hold for more than half an hour with some annoying music playing, so I just gave up in the end. Feels like a bit of a scam to me. Got an automated message from Royal Mail customer service saying they’re super busy and to please wait while they connect me. Ha, what a joke!Royal Mail6 yearsTotal scam, honestly.6 yearsI discovered that £16.83 was deducted from my account for an alleged phone call, which apparently lasted 8 minutes. However, as a deaf individual, I never utilize the phone for making calls and solely rely on it for broadband purposes.6 yearsHeads up, this number claiming to be Royal Mail customer service isn't showing itself as a premium rate line like you'd expect. Just a warning to anyone trying to call.Royal Mail6 yearsI've been invoiced £10.28.6 yearsI have no clue how but somehow I ended up calling this number 10 times in just one day, and it’s not like I remember doing it. Now I’m stuck with a £38 bill because of it.6 yearsI got bt to look into this, and turns out it’s actually a royal mail number that’s not free, so be careful.BTRoyal Mail6 yearsi got charged more than £7 by bt for a call to this number, but i never actually rang it.BT6 yearsrubbish thieves6 yearsOn my BT Landline bill, there is a record of a call made on 10th March 2020. The call lasted for 2 minutes and 3 seconds and I was charged £0.46 for it. However, I did not make this call to Cricklewood Post Office. It's peculiar as I reside in Northumberland. My telephone number is 01670 503031. Kindly, Ann Bullock.BT LandlineCricklewood Post OfficeNorthumberlandAnn Bullock7 yearsI was billed £23.29 for this specific contact, even though I was placed on hold. It seems that this number is not the correct one.7 yearsI think it might be some kind of international shipping or logistics firm, but I’m not certain. I tried looking up the number twice; once it showed up as UWL, but the other time I got nothing. The call appeared on my phone bill from my brother’s phone, which is on my account, and it ended up costing £25.01 for about 48 minutes. Just a heads up - this is definitely a premium number and calling it can get really pricey. Be careful!UWL7 yearsI've never given you a call, yet I've been billed £2.85 for making four calls.7 yearsPlease note that the Cricklewood DO does not have a premium rate RM number. Instead, you can use the customer service number to contact them. Simply dial 03457740740.Cricklewood DO7 yearsI stumbled upon the number 0844-474-0395 while attempting to reach out to my local Royal Mail Sorting Office regarding a Re-Delivery and Customs Fee issue. After rummaging through my directories without yielding any local results, I resorted to a bit of online sleuthing, hoping to uncover some reputable contact details. As I scrolled through various sites stemming from my search, it dawned on me just how challenging it is to locate contact information for any local Royal Mail Sorting Offices. Eventually, I managed to gather some info via "My Local Services" at this link: https://www.mylocalservices.co.uk/forum/8440-contacting-my-royal-mail-local-delivery-office.html. Although the details appeared genuine and trustworthy, I couldn’t shake the feeling that it might be linked to some sort of scam. So, I dialled up the number, under the assumption that I was connecting with Royal Mail. However, while waiting to be put through to an agent, I was informed that they were quite swamped and suggested I visit their website instead. But let’s be honest - if someone has gotten to the point of making a phone call, it’s safe to say they’ve hit a brick wall online. In the end, after roughly 25 minutes of hanging on, I was abruptly disconnected. It was only later that I discovered this call had chewed up nearly all my phone credit, which was over £16.50. What a right kerfuffle!Royal Mail Sorting OfficeRoyal Mail Sorting OfficesMy Local ServicesRoyal Mail7 yearsI stumbled upon this number whilst attempting to get in touch with my local Royal Mail Sorting Office regarding a rather vexing issue with a Re-Delivery and some pesky Customs Fees. The details were sourced from a site called "My Local Services" (https://www.mylocalservices.co.uk/forum/8440-contacting-my-royal-mail-local-delivery-office.html), which appeared to present credible and trustworthy information. However, I'm now leaning towards thinking it might just be a ruse. Much like a previous commentator, Miss R Lynch, who posted on 11-12-2018 (Report #2205369196), I dialled this number under the impression that it was affiliated with Royal Mail. I ended up on hold, listening to a message insisting they were experiencing high call volumes and suggesting I check the website instead. After waiting nearly 25 minutes, the line was abruptly disconnected. To add insult to injury, I later discovered I had burned through most of my credit-over £16.50, no less!Royal Mail Sorting OfficeRe - DeliveryMy Local ServicescoukMiss R LynchRoyal Mail7 yearsRoyal Mail mistakenly provided a premium rate number, which isn't the appropriate one for customer service enquiries. I patiently endured a lengthy wait of more than 40 minutes, resulting in an expenditure of £8.45.
