There was an extra £10.99 added to my bill that I don't remember using. I rang EE and they said it’s a number linked to their broadband service. I asked them to remove it straight away! Honestly, I wouldn’t pick up if I saw this number ringing.

Usually, my phone bill is around £10 monthly, but when I checked last month’s statement it shot up to £28. After finally getting the number through EE, I found out this charge was linked to when I switched my internet from BT to EE. They had given me this number to call and reschedule my fibre broadband installation. Spent over 30 minutes on the phone just trying to fix the mess. Definitely not calling that number again.

Got a call from someone saying they’re with EE, asking for my info. When I told them they already have my details, they said someone else would ring me about a better SIM deal. I told them it sounded like a scam and they just cut the call right away. Checked my EE bill later and they’d charged me £7.54 for that call! Definitely block these scammers. Also, their English was really rough, which was a big red flag.

I got a text from OpenReach telling me to ring this number because our new broadband hub hadn’t shown up yet. The message said it was an EE number, but after trying 6 times all I got was “number not recognised.” So yeah, can’t really say much else about it!

I ended up being billed £108 for ringing this number, which is with EE. I tried sorting it out through their phone support and their live chat. The chat folks only offered to knock off 25% of the cost, even though I kept telling them it’s now against the law to charge for customer service calls. The woman I spoke to on the phone was way more helpful and ended up cancelling and refunding the whole amount without any fuss or hassle. Honestly, it just goes to show how much it depends on who you actually get when you call these places.

So, it was EE broadband support I called. I rang 150 on my EE phone and chose the option for broadband help. At first, I didn't recall making the call, but when I looked at the date, I saw it was the same morning my internet stopped working. Ended up getting billed £8.42 for an 11 minute chat.

Looking at my phone bill, I noticed a charge of £4.16 for just 2 minutes. I’m pretty certain I never dialled that number, especially since 08 numbers usually cost extra on mobiles. Feels like a total rip-off to me. Stay away from this number, folks! Anonymous

If you've got problems with your EE broadband, avoid ringing this number to report faults, it's just a sneaky way they try to rip you off when you let them know about issues with their gear. Honestly, if they treat you like that, just switch to a different provider! Seriously, don't waste your time here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Had a look up this number and found complaints going back all the way to 2012 about unexpected charges. It started out with Orange but now it's with EE. For me, the charges kicked in the same day I moved my broadband over to EE, but I never actually placed any calls. Since I used to work in communications design, it seems like this could be some leftover test code in their system, with no real person behind it and impossible to track. If it happens in other places, it could get messy. EE have said they’re doing a proper investigation now and will ring me back within 24 hours.

On the 2nd of February, we dialled this number and had a conversation lasting around twelve minutes. We also placed a call on the 15th. It seems likely that this is connected to either Sky or Virgin, as we are in the process of switching our broadband service and received calls around that period. Honestly, we reckon there’s nothing particularly sinister about it since we reached out to them, and the calls didn't set us back much at all-roughly fifty pence.

I only realised recently that this number is actually for WE broadband fault support or info. If you call it from an EE phone, it doesn’t cost anything, but if you ring from other networks, you’ll get charged.

We gave them a bell because our internet was playing up, and it turned out to be the Orange helpline. The whole ordeal took just 40 seconds to sort out, and we ended up forking out a fiver! Honestly, I’m not keen on going down that road again!

I've just noticed some weird charges on my bill from 08448738586 - £11.83 for a 27 minute call, £6.95 for one lasting 16 minutes, and another for 41p that was 7 minutes long. All these calls show up as happening on the same day, but the odd part is two calls are logged at exactly the same time. Something doesn’t add up here, I’m definitely gonna investigate this further!

It appears to be the customer support line for Orange, or possibly a company that manages customer support for Orange and maybe other brands linked to BB. In our case, we reached out to them for assistance, and we were taken aback when we received a sales call from the same number.

We've been inundated with calls that seem to be from outside our area, and to make matters worse, our phone bill is reflecting charges for calls dialled to this number. It's safe to say that we definitely didn't make those calls!

It appears that this call originated from a customer service representative affiliated with Orange or perhaps a related firm servicing Orange and other similar companies. We reached out to them seeking assistance, but found it quite unexpected when we received an outgoing sales call from the very same number.

We had to give them a bell since our internet went kaput, and it turned out to be the Orange helpline. Can you believe it? It only took us 40 seconds to sort out the hassle, but it cost us £6.00! I don’t fancy going through that rigmarole again!

I just wanted to point out that if you're using a landline, this number connects you to the ORANGE HELPLINE. Just a heads-up-if you're on an Orange mobile, dialing 150 is free, but don’t be fooled! Calling from anywhere else could really rack up those charges. Best to keep that in mind!
