Phone number ☎️ 08451479842 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance, frequently calling multiple times daily on both landlines and mobiles, often during inconvenient hours. Callers typically claim to be from RAC or related companies, offering insurance or upgraded services, but requests for bank details raise concerns of potential scams or phishing attempts. Many recipients are sceptical due to aggressive sales tactics, lack of verification of membership numbers, and discrepancies in caller identity, sometimes involving foreign accents or unclear company affiliations. Vulnerable groups, such as disabled or elderly individuals, find these calls particularly distressing. While not necessarily fraudulent, the calls are widely regarded as intrusive cold calls exploiting RAC customer information. Blocking the number is a common response advised to minimise disruption.

11 yearsI found myself not leaving any message at all.11 yearsGot a call on my landline earlier from someone claiming to sell insurance because I’m supposedly a customer with RAC breakdown, which is true. While the lady was going through her script, I quickly searched the phone number she used and noticed it was the same one that rang me a bit earlier today. The deal she was offering sounded way too good to be legit, and then she began insisting on getting my bank info. I wasn’t having any of that - I let her get just the first two digits before I stopped her dead in her tracks!!RACGoogle12 yearsHonestly, they’re just so annoying!12 yearsThese lot really get under my skin.12 yearsIts so annoying when they ring up at like 8.45 in the evening then when you pick up there’s just silence. Honestly, I’m so fed up with this happening!12 yearsGot called on my mobile two times. After the first ring, I blocked the number so the second one didn’t get through. I didn’t pick up the initial call since 0845 numbers usually lead to pushy sales calls.12 yearsI get calls on both my mobile and landline pretty much every day, often more than once. I just don’t pick up unless the number is familiar or I’m actually waiting for someone to ring me.12 yearsWhy do they keep ringing me? I’m not sure how they even managed to get hold of my number. Please just stop calling!12 yearsThese calls are coming in way too often, can someone please make them stop?12 yearsThis number keeps calling me daily, but I just ignore it. Is it Scottish Power or something?Scottish Power12 yearsI’ve been getting calls from this number on and off for weeks now. I’m on a disability pension and it’s really hard for me to keep up with answering the phone.12 yearsThis number calls me loads everyday! I guess my answering machine must be really captivating or something, coz they just keep ringing but never bother leaving a message. Bit odd really.12 yearsSince a hedge fund bought the RAC, they’re clearly looking to milk members for all they're worth. If you’re with RAC, the call you got is probably from First Assist pushing insurance deals no one really wants. They’ve got your details from RAC, but they don’t care about your membership number because it doesn’t matter to them. It's not exactly a scam, just annoying telemarketing trying to sell you insurance you probably don’t need.RACFirst Assist12 yearsGot a call from a bloke with a foreign accent who said he was ringing from some company - couldn’t really catch the name - claiming to be working for the RAC. He asked straight away for my partner by name, so obviously someone’s given them our details including the home number. The call just dropped half way through and they never bothered to call back. I’m thinking of letting the RAC know about it too.RAC12 yearsThis number won’t stop ringing me, saying they've got an upgraded service deal and that they're from RAC. I've got their top-level full cover already, so there’s no way this is legit - it’s totally a scam.RAC12 yearsA caller said they were from the RAC, trying to sell me some upgraded service. When they asked for my bank info, I just ended the call. What really made me suspicious was they couldn’t give me my membership number, even though they said this offer was only for members. Sounds like a phishing scam to me.RAC12 yearsIgnore that scam call right away.13 yearsI got a call from them and when I answered, all I heard was a recorded message asking me to leave my name and number so they'd get back to me. Seems a bit odd since they were the ones who called me in the first place!13 yearsGot a call supposedly from Scottish Power, but it all seems dodgy to me. I've never dealt with them before, so it’s probably a scam.Scottish PowerSubmit Your Own Report (0845 147 9842)
