08446931682 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 08446931682 👆 is reported as a suspicious or nuisance number frequently appearing on phone bills without users placing calls. Many elderly or vulnerable customers, often with dementia or using careline devices, have been charged for calls they did not make, with providers sometimes unable or unwilling to block it effectively. The number is associated with premium rate or non-geographic calls causing significant unexpected charges. In several instances, call blockers fail to prevent billing for these calls. Customers are advised to closely monitor their bills, report unauthorised charges to their provider, request blocking of the number, and consider escalating complaints if unresolved. This issue appears to exploit vulnerable users and highlights the need for greater telecom safeguards and consumer protection.

I keep seeing this number pop up on my phone bill, like 50 to 60 times every month. I’ve never called it myself. Does anyone know what I’m supposed to do about this?

I find myself in a somewhat familiar predicament, much like others have shared. My 96-year-old stepdad’s BT statement reveals that his phone has been ringing this particular number two or three times a day, often at odd hours, including the early morning. It's quite puzzling, as he isn’t the one initiating these calls and doesn't have any broadband or gadgets hooked up apart from an emergency call button. I'm currently delving into this matter with BT to see if they can shed light on why these calls are being made.

I keep seeing this number pop up on my phone account, and it's been showing as calling me about 25 times, even though I never dialled it myself.

My mother-in-law has recently realised that she's been shelling out a fair bit of dosh to a premium rate number through her Care Line. The alarming part is, she isn't the one making the calls; it seems her Care Line has been compromised and is generating these calls on its own, resulting in charges landing on her BT bill. It’s crucial that BT intervenes and blocks that particular number immediately.

I've been reviewing my BT statement and noticed that for several weeks now, I've been calling this particular number at odd hours of the night, each call lasting precisely 16 seconds. I've raised the issue with BT, and they investigated my line, but didn't find any problems. They've put the 0844 number on their blacklist, attempted to bar it, and assured me that I'll get my charges refunded. However, my call blocker doesn’t seem to catch these calls, yet they’re still showing up as part of my call history. Clearly, there's a glitch in the system somewhere. What on earth can be done to sort this out?

I've noticed this number cropping up on my uncle's bills for several months now. Just last month he received a refund, yet here we are, the same number has resurfaced again. The odd thing is, my uncle's currently in hospital, so the house is vacant. How on earth is this happening?

On my monthly phone statement, there's this elusive number that keeps popping up, indicating I’ve made calls to it at the same time every Wednesday afternoon. I reached out to my mobile provider, and they mentioned that it might be linked to some sort of emergency alarm service for the elderly, providing a way for them to reach out if they have a tumble at home. However, when I contacted the support service for the elderly, they claimed to have no knowledge of the number. I followed up with my phone company who suggested I block all premium rate numbers, which I’ve done, yet I’m still not the one placing these calls. The charges show up on my bill as 'non-geographic', which makes it all the more perplexing.

I've noticed this number cropping up on my 94-year-old mother's phone bill quite frequently. Despite reaching out to BT multiple times to have it blocked, they haven't exactly been forthcoming with assistance. It's quite frustrating to see her being charged over £15 this month solely due to this issue.

I noticed this number listed on my phone bill, but I’ve never dialled it myself. After coming across another comment, I suspect it might be linked to Amara. I had been browsing their site in search of a gift, yet I didn’t make any purchases nor did I call them. So, I’m puzzled as to how they managed to acquire my number-was it some sort of reverse call?

This number keeps ringing my 87-year-old mother at all sorts of odd hours, both day and night. I suppose I’ll need to reach out to Talk Talk to see if they can sort this mess out.

I've noticed this number on my elderly mother’s phone bill, and she’s completely in the dark about any so-called ‘service number’. BT’s support has been utterly inadequate. It’s really quite alarming how these companies seem to exploit those who are more susceptible. I do my best to keep an eye on her paperwork, but I can’t be around to check it all the time. If this situation doesn’t come to a halt, I will definitely look for alternative means of communication that don’t involve BT.

I've just realised that this number has been ringing my 85-year-old uncle for several months now. He suffers from dementia, so it's troubling that Virgin insists he’s the one making these calls and has charged him for them. It's quite concerning!

I've had my CPR Call Blocker intercept this number three times now, yet I've still ended up with charges on my phone bill every single time. Each instance, the call log on my blocker displayed this number along with a peculiar code - 06000000032619, which I suspect could be causing the fees to reverse back onto me. I've reached out to BT on two separate occasions regarding the issue, but to no avail. On my third attempt, I escalated the matter to the Information Commissioner's Office. I'd strongly recommend anyone receiving calls from this number to double-check their phone bills!

I received a call from this number on 15th February 2017, but thankfully, my call-blocking service intercepted it. Upon investigating, I discovered it was merely one of those pesky nuisance calls. Strangely enough, I never called this number, yet it has appeared on my BT bill! I intend to raise this issue with BT, as it’s rather alarming that such things are occurring.

Last night, my mobile received a call from this number. I usually have it on silent mode, which meant I completely missed the ring.

I received a call from this number, but the caller didn’t bother to leave a voicemail. Rather mysterious, I'd say!
