I came across an unfamiliar number on my bill that shows I supposedly chatted for 8 minutes, which cost me £5.26. However, O2 insists that I made the call, but that doesn't align with my recollection. Quite perplexing, to say the least!

Got hit with a £5 charge plus extras just for answering a call - absolute rip-off! Went through a tiresome back-and-forth with O2 to get a partial refund, but after some strong words (I reckon the phone company’s in on it, to be honest), they finally coughed up the full amount. Make sure you’re keeping an eye on your bills, folks, and don’t hesitate to fight back when these dodgy practices rear their ugly heads!

Received a bill for £6.53 from 08700424241, which has utterly baffled me. I haven’t the foggiest notion of how that happened, as I didn’t even ring them. Yet, it states I've been on the line for a whole 11 minutes! Quite the mystery, if you ask me.

Upon reflection, it appears that this is a contact number associated with the job centre or perhaps Universal Credit.
