Phone number ☎️ 08445675679 👆 is reported as a scam targeting vulnerable individuals, especially the elderly, by falsely claiming users are already subscribed to a nuisance call blocking service with a monthly fee. Callers pressure victims into providing bank details for a costly subscription and overpriced call-blocking devices. Numerous victims have expressed concern about unauthorised payments and misleading offers, with some reporting previous losses. Official action appears lacking, and the service is not affiliated with reputable providers as claimed. Experts advise avoiding sharing bank details, consulting trusted sources for call-blocking solutions, and considering more affordable, no-subscription options readily available through reputable retailers. Vigilance and verification with phone providers are essential to prevent falling victim to this persistent scheme.
Reports on phone number 08445675679
11 yearsIt seems that the individual who commented, "I've been using Do Not Call UK since January and the service has been fantastic, with no unwanted calls," is likely part of the scam operation itself. This scheme looks to exploit those who may be less aware or have difficulty remembering details, claiming they signed up for 'Do Not Call UK' in January 2013 and are currently being charged £4 a month directly on their phone bill. Their ultimate aim appears to be harvesting bank details. What is particularly alarming is the apparent inaction from authorities regarding this ongoing issue, allowing these con artists to thrive and deceive those most at risk. The number involved, 08445 675 679, is crucial to report. It's high time that Action Fraud stepped up and took decisive measures against such scams!Action Fraud11 yearsUntrustworthy outfit, indeed! I'm gearing up to take legal action against them. Time to bring in the bailiffs and see them dealt with!11 yearsToday, my elderly father, who is 80 years old, received a rather dubious call regarding number blocking. Unfortunately, he wasn't able to catch the name of the company, but he did mention that "the lady seemed quite pleasant and sincere" (can you believe it?). She said she would dispatch a contract and then initiate a subscription fee from his bank account. Astonishingly, they already had the first four digits of his card, and he ended up giving her the remainder of the number. I've urged him to contact the bank at once to cancel the card. He’s been duped before, losing £90 to a prior scam, and it has left me absolutely furious.11 yearsIt's utterly disgraceful how this firm takes advantage of vulnerable seniors. My father-in-law, who is battling Alzheimer's, has fallen victim to their tactics multiple times. It's infuriating to see them exploit his condition without a second thought. They deserve a serious reckoning for their actions!11 yearsI had a rather surprising phone call today on my home number from a woman named Gail from donotcall.uk. She quoted the number 0844 5675679, claiming I'd been charged £1.65 monthly to prevent nuisance calls. Quite frankly, that was the first I'd heard of it! When I pointed out that I still get bombarded with pesky calls, she mentioned something about the arrangement being made via my phone provider and suggested an upgrade. Apparently, they were offering me a call blocker valued at £150. I told her I'd need to confer with my provider before making any decisions, and she promised to call me again. However, I intend to let her know I'm not interested and will also inform both my provider and the local neighbourhood watch about this. - caller: donotcall.ukGail11 yearsAvoid this firm, they're just taking your money with their so-called call blockers. It's a total scam!12 yearsI've been using Do Not Call UK since the start of the year, and I must say, the service has been absolutely top-notch. Not a single nuisance call has bothered me since I signed up! The device that was sent my way didn’t set me back £89.99 - that amount covered the service and any future updates. Honestly, it’s turned out to be a money saver for me, especially since I was shelling out £4.25 a month to BT just for caller ID. This gadget not only provides caller display features but also effectively blocks those pesky nuisance calls. If you’re tired of unwanted calls and truly want peace, I highly recommend signing up for this service! It’s been a phenomenal decision, granting me a much-needed silence ever since I’ve sent my ex packing!12 yearsThis marks the second occasion I've received a call from this outfit claiming that my partner has a subscription to AMG costing £4.00 per month. I reiterated that there are no such payments being deducted, and she stubbornly suggested he might be on an annual payment plan. That’s still a firm no from me! She went on to provide the customer service number 08445675679, but when I inquired about the cost of a call to that number, she couldn’t enlighten me. I also pressed her on what day of the month this alleged payment is supposed to come out, but she was equally in the dark on that matter. Quite frustrating, to say the least!AMG12 yearsI'm really concerned about my father, who has a disability. He was persuaded to part with £76 to prevent those pesky cold calls. It makes me uneasy because he shared his card information, and I can't shake the feeling that it might be a scam.12 yearsHonestly, if you're considering using this service, beware! It's nothing but a complete con! SAVE YOUR MONEY! Instead of wasting your cash here, just pop over to Amazon or eBay, type in "Call Blocking," and you'll find a range of devices available for less than £25. They’re literally selling the same equipment for a staggering £89.99 plus a monthly fee. It’s utterly ridiculous! Don’t fall for it!Amazon12 yearsI received a call from someone claiming they could help me put a stop to all those annoying calls. At £1.49 a month, the offer sounded quite appealing. However, when they asked for my bank account details, I quickly declined. They did provide a contact number for initiating the service, but I'm hesitant to proceed, as I'm not keen on sharing my banking info.12 yearsWhat a load of nonsense! I just got a call about some so-called service to curb annoying telemarketers. The person on the other end insisted that I (or perhaps my partner) had previously signed up for it and that they were sending out a shiny new device. They even claimed the subscription fees had come down! To top it off, they had the audacity to say they were affiliated with BT - pure fabrication! The caller’s accent made it clear they were based in the UK too. Quite a dubious situation, if you ask me!UK12 yearsDidn’t receive any message from them.12 yearsIs this just a trick to hinder those pesky nuisance calls?Submit Your Own Report (0844 567 5679)
