08445796345 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 08445796345 👆 is reported as a persistent scam targeting UK mobile users, where unauthorized premium-rate charges are applied repeatedly without consent, often linked to misleading SMS messages and calls from a supposed "cell shop." Victims, primarily Vodafone and T-Mobile customers, experience unexplained fees added to their bills with no actual receipt of services or texts. Attempts to stop charges by replying with 'STOP' are ineffective due to lack of received messages. Customer service from networks often fails to resolve the issue fully, though some refunds have been issued. The operation appears to exploit subscribers' numbers without clear explanation, causing frustration and financial loss. It is advised not to respond to suspicious messages, block offending numbers, and report to regulatory bodies to help prevent further abuses.
Reports on phone number 08445796345
10 yearsWe've recently come to realise that we're receiving weekly SMS messages from this number, despite not actually getting the texts themselves. It's quite puzzling how these individuals have managed to acquire our numbers in the first place!10 yearsThis has occurred to us on two separate occasions: we've been billed thrice for each of the two messages received. Despite sending a 'quit' text as advised, they still had the audacity to send us yet another message, resulting in yet another £3 charge. What course of action can we possibly take here? I'm seriously contemplating the idea of switching away from T-Mobile altogether.T - Mobile10 yearsLike many of you, we've been caught out by this for the last three months, being charged £9 each time. Vodafone gave us the number for The Cell Shop, which is 08445 796345. When we called, a bloke answered but hung up before we could utter a word!VodafoneThe Cell Shop10 yearsI've found myself in a remarkably similar predicament. Over the past month, I've noticed four charges on our T-Mobile account. While the caller IDs varied each time, it was undeniably the same company behind these calls, and to be honest, we haven't the slightest clue about what we've allegedly ordered. I'm keen to get this number blocked as soon as possible!T - Mobile10 yearsOh dear, Susan seems to have misspelled 'publicised'. It’s a pity there isn’t an option to make edits.Susan11 yearsVodafone has advised us to respond to a message with the word “STOP.” The catch is, we’ve never actually received any such message! According to our monthly bill checks, which occur every Wednesday between 10 and 10.30 am, I should’ve received something. This month, they've finally owned up to it being a scam, but the kicker is we still have to settle our bill. Honestly, these folks can jog on - I’m planning to take them to court instead!Vodafone11 yearsSince we signed up for a contract with Vodafone, we’ve noticed an additional £12 appearing on our bill each week. We keep getting contacted by a place called Mobileshop, but we’ve told them repeatedly that we’ve never heard of them. They insist that we must be downloading something, but we’ve explained that we’ve never used the internet on our phone. They checked with their tech team who confirmed that there’s no web activity linked to our number. Yet, the customer service team continues to parrot the same Mobileshop line. It's baffling how they can charge us for something that they clearly know we haven’t used!VodafoneMobileshop11 yearsWhat a right faff this company has caused us! We ended up being billed six times, three quid a pop! I've never even subscribed to any downloads, so I've no clue how they got hold of our number. Vodafone sorted out a refund for us, but aside from that, they haven't been much help. At least we've managed to get them to block that 0844 number, which is something, as we didn't have that information before.Vodafone11 yearsReceived a text from 30010007 stating I’ve been billed £3.00 for Logos and Ringtones from Cell Shop. Not particularly pleased about this. If anyone else has had a similar experience, it’d be great to hear! Help line is 08445796345.Cell Shop11 yearsI almost overlooked mentioning that we've been notified by T Cell that the firms in question were DIGITAL weeks, and it seems these individuals referred to themselves as SWITCHFIRE.T Cell11 yearsCould you please clarify why we've received a charge? Also, how on earth did you obtain our number?11 yearsI recently found myself hit with a £15 charge, and I'm absolutely fuming about it. I reached out to Vodafone for help, but the number they gave me was completely useless! I've already reported this to the Police and I'm resolute in my quest to reclaim our funds. It’s quite astonishing, really. We're considering reaching out to GMTV to raise awareness about this scam, as many folks might not even realise they’re being ripped off!VodafonePoliceGMTV12 yearsI’ve had a similar experience myself. Last month, my T-Mobile account saw charges hit four times! The caller ID was different each time, but it was clearly the same company. Honestly, we’re utterly baffled about what we supposedly ordered. I’ve started blocking the numbers as quickly as I can.Mobile12 yearsWe've just noticed an extra £15 tacked onto our bill because of this number. Like many others, I didn't receive any notification via text - it simply appeared as an addition to our usual charges. How frustrating!12 yearsOn the 4th of February, 2009, we received exactly the same text message, completely unsolicited and very much unwelcome. It’s undoubtedly a scam; in fact, it borders on outright theft involving our account! It seems to be happening repeatedly, to make matters worse. If you look up 30010007, you'll see for yourself. I wouldn't recommend calling those 0844 numbers, as they'll only ring up your charges with no gain for you. Instead, lodge your complaints with PhonepayPlus by dialling the freephone number 0800 500 212. Don't forget to block the caller's number to avoid any further disturbances. Some individuals have even reached out to BBC Watchdog regarding this issue. We might not be on the mark, but it appears most of the affected parties are on O2, or so it seems?PhonepayPlusBBC Watchdog12 yearsIt’s quite unfortunate, isn’t it? Susan seems to have made a mistake in her writing. What a bother that there’s no option to amend or correct errors after they’ve been published!Susan12 yearsI've just noticed an extra fifteen quid on our bill thanks to this number. It seems to have appeared out of nowhere, as we haven't received any other texts beyond our usual charges. Quite the shock, really!12 yearsBlimey, what a relief to know we’re not alone in this! We received a staggering six charges from them last week and, unbelievably, another six this month. It’s utterly baffling to think how they’ve got hold of our number in the first place. We’re absolutely fuming about having to fork out all this cash, and it feels like there’s no way to stop this from recurring. What a nightmare!Blimey12 yearsWe've recently discovered that we're being bombarded with weekly SMS messages from this number. Strangely enough, we aren’t even getting the actual texts on our phones! It's baffling how these individuals have managed to obtain our numbers in the first place. Any ideas?12 yearsIt's about time someone sheds light on these scams that fleece people out of their hard-earned cash. I've taken the liberty of reaching out to GMTV as well. I've also fired off an email to our local MP, sharing a plethora of links to various online accounts detailing the unfortunate experiences of victims who’ve been duped. This sort of behaviour needs to be brought into the spotlight!GMTVSubmit Your Own Report (0844 579 6345)
