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.

This person introduced themselves as calling from EE and requested my personal information. When I mentioned that they already had my details, they proceeded to inform me that someone else would contact me to provide a superior SIM card offer. I suspected this may be a scam, so I quickly ended the call. Surprisingly, I discovered that EE charged me £7.54 for this call. It is advisable to block them. It is important to be cautious of scammers, especially considering their inadequate grasp of the English language.

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 was surprised to find that I was billed £108 for a call to this particular number, which belongs to EE. Determined to resolve the issue, I reached out to them both via phone and their instant chat app. Interestingly, when I communicated with their instant chat representatives, they informed me that they could only reduce the charge by 25%. This response, even after I pointed out that charging for customer service calls is prohibited by law now.

However, when I spoke to a lady on the phone, she proved to be much more proactive. Without any hesitations or disagreements, she skillfully wiped off and fully refunded all the charges. This experience served as a clear reminder that sometimes luck plays a part in determining the outcome when dealing with such situations.

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.

For those experiencing issues with their EE broadband, I advise against calling this particular number to report faults. Unfortunately, the company may take advantage of customers by charging unnecessary fees when reporting problems related to their equipment. In such cases, it may be worthwhile to consider switching to a different provider. Take into account this cautionary advice and protect yourself from any potential traps.

I decided to search this number online and I discovered that people have been reporting issues regarding being charged for calls made to this number since 2012. The number was originally associated with Orange, but now it belongs to EE. Interestingly, I noticed that I was charged for calls to this number on the same day that I switched my broadband to EE. However, I never made those calls. As someone with experience in communication design, it struck me that this could potentially be a piece of temporary software test code that was forgotten - a situation where no individuals are involved and the source is untraceable. This situation has the potential to cause significant trouble if it occurs elsewhere. The authorities are now launching a thorough investigation into this matter and have promised to call 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.

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.

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!
