08703611417 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 08703611417 👆 is reported as a contact number primarily linked to the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP), often regarding Universal Credit claims, with calls frequently made by their outsourced service provider, Serco. While many users confirm its legitimacy as part of official benefit communication to arrange interviews or appointments, there are recurring complaints about aggressive call patterns - calls ending abruptly before being answered or many calls within a short time - causing frustration. Some recipients erroneously associate it with the Child Support Agency (CSA) or experience confusion due to caller ID anomalies. Users are advised to exercise caution, avoid sharing personal or financial details by phone, and verify calls directly through official DWP channels if unsure. The number should not be assumed to be a scam but requires vigilance.
Reports on phone number 08703611417
9 yearsI received a call from the DWP just now, and they’ve assured me that they’re dispatching both an email and written correspondence regarding my Universal Credit appointment. It’s all above board, as I've already got the email in my inbox. The individual on the line even provided their name and the office they were representing.DWPUniversal Credit9 yearsI registered for universal credit yesterday and this number kept ringing me 4 times, but each call only lasted a couple of seconds before hanging up. It was pretty frustrating, so I figured it was some sort of prank and blocked the caller. Then not long after blocking it, I received an email from DWP Universal Credit about my upcoming interview. The email mentioned they tried to get in touch and also said they would never ask for personal details over email, plus all their messages are monitored, so it all looked genuine which was a bit odd.DWP9 yearsDept. of Work & Pensions?DWP9 yearsI've been receiving calls from this number on both my mobile and my landline. It's quite persistent!9 yearsSounds like it was someone from the benefits office about universal credit.9 yearsDWP / Universal Credit tried ringing me 4 times in a row but the phone didnt even get to ring once. Then got a text saying they’d call back within an hour, but its been well over an hour now and still nothing!9 yearsHad a call from DWP about my universal credit claim.DWPUniversal Credit9 yearsThis aint no harassing call, it’s from the DWP. I missed the call and then they sent me an email with an appointment date at the job centre about my Universal Credit claim. Totally genuine number.DWPUniversal Credit9 yearsI received a call from this number today, and it turned out to be a really pleasant chap from the Department of Work and Pensions. He was incredibly understanding, particularly when I mentioned that I’m currently battling a nasty stomach bug. He assured me, saying, “I’ll make it as swift as possible to confirm everything,” and he truly did!Department of Work and Pensions9 yearsHappened the same with me like some others mentioned. They called me 5 times in under half a minute but each time it just stopped after barely ringing so I couldn't pick up. I know it's a legit number, got a text saying they attempted to get through but failed and would call again soon. Problem is if they let the phone ring properly I might actually answer it.9 yearsI get calls from the Department for Work & Pensions about universal credit. They've outsourced it to SERCO now, but it’s definitely a legit number.Department for Work and PensionsSERCO9 yearsDealing with Universal Credit stuff/benefits can be an absolute nightmare sometimes.9 yearsThe Serco DWP service centre seems to make calls that don’t ring through properly. They keep trying until you manage to answer.Serco DWP9 yearsIs this for real or just a scam? Cheers!9 yearsIt’s from the DWP, so it’s a legit number. But if you’re using a Samsung, it shows as Airport, which threw me off and made me ignore it the first time.DWPSamsung9 yearsGot a call about some sort of claim, she wanted me to verify really private stuff and my bank details to ‘prove who I am’. I told her I had no clue who she was and I wasn’t sharing anything personal, and she started getting a bit annoyed. I’ve reported the whole thing to the DWP. No way I’m giving out bank info over the phone. If they can’t even properly identify me, they shouldn’t be calling!DWP9 yearsUniversal credit calls? Just dont answer if you’re not into it. Simple as that.9 yearsTotal scam calls!FRAUDULENT9 yearsI've received three calls from this number now. I tried getting in touch with Universal Credit and the DWP, but they're both shut for the bank holiday. Just playing the waiting game for their return call, I suppose!Universal CreditDWP9 yearsCould someone enlighten me on what this is regarding?9 yearsBloody hell, I didn’t pick up but I just went ahead and signed up anyway.9 yearsIt’s just social, they only sent me a text.9 yearsThis number rang me thrice over the span of two days, yet they never allowed me a moment to pick up the phone. Quite puzzling, really!9 yearsI've received a call from this number multiple times today-over ten times, to be precise! They keep ringing, but as soon as I pick up, the line goes dead. It’s incredibly frustrating! They usually ring me another four times after that before finally giving up. I'm not about to return the call, though, as I’m wary of incurring any unexpected charges. If it were the DWP or Universal Credit, surely they’d just let it ring properly so I could actually respond? It doesn't seem quite right, does it?9 yearsGot a call from this number about sorting out my universal credit claim, like setting up a time to go to my nearest job centre. My Galaxy S7 showed it as "airport" though? But I'm pretty sure it's from the DWP.Galaxy S7DWP9 yearsThe number belongs to SERCO SERVICE CENTRE. Serco does outsourced customer service jobs for the UK Government. For me, they were getting in touch regarding my Universal Credit claim, working for the DWP. When they couldn’t get hold of me by phone, they dropped me an email with the appointment info and mentioned they’d tried calling. Your call might not be about Universal Credit specifically (it could be pensions, CSA, or something else), but it’ll still be Serco working for the DWP.SERCO SERVICESercoUKDWPChild Support Agency9 yearsNormally I don’t answer calls from unknown numbers, but I couldn’t see properly without my glasses and ended up picking up. Some bloke asked for someone by name and I told him he could talk to her if she lived here!!! Then I just ended the call. Felt a bit dodgy, didn’t sound right at all. Best to stay clear!!!9 yearsThey called me 4 times in less than a minute but it didn’t even ring, just my phone flashing the call alert. If it’s CSA, why’s it also showing up as Universal Credit? They’re meant to be handled by different departments.Child Support AgencyUniversal Credit9 yearsThis number belongs to the DWP, check the response from 15/3/17.Department for Work and Pensions9 yearsthey just keep calling but i barely get a chance to pick up before it stops ringing.9 yearsBlimey, I received a total of nine calls from this number! But when I attempted to return the call, I was met with a message saying the number wasn't recognised. How baffling!9 yearsI've received a couple of calls from this number, but when I attempted to return the call, it just said that the number I dialled couldn’t be found. Quite baffling, really!9 yearsThey called about 11 times within 5 minutes, kept ringing then hanging up before I could even pick up. So annoying having my phone blow up like that so many times in such a short span. Does anyone have any idea who it might be?9 yearsThis number has rung me a couple of times, and I checked with CSA who told me they never call from an 0870 number.9 yearsshowed up as an airport number. looks like a fake one used by customer service agents.9 yearsI received a call from this number and initially brushed it off. However, after a quick search on this site, I decided to pick up when they rang back about an hour later. It turned out to be the DWP reaching out regarding my Universal Credit application, to set up an appointment at my nearest Jobcentre to wrap things up. Just wanted to share that info with everyone! :)DWPJobcentre9 yearsthis number is real, i didn’t pick up the first time it rang but looked it up on here later. got a call back about an hour after and answered it. turned out to be the dwp regarding my universal credit claim, they wanted to set a date for me to come to the jobcentre to sort everything out. just wanted to share that with everyone :)DWP9 yearsI initially thought this number was dodgy, so I let the first call go to voicemail. After doing a bit of research on this site, I took a chance and answered when they rang again about an hour later. Turned out to be the DWP following up about my Universal Credit application. They wanted to set up a time for me to pop into the local Jobcentre and wrap everything up. Just thought I'd share my experience with everyone! :)DWPJobcentre9 yearsCalled my landline but didn’t leave a message. The same happened with my mobile. When I tried to return the call from my mobile, it said the number wasn’t recognised. I’ve now blocked it.10 yearsTried to ring today but couldn't answer in time... when I attempted to return the call, it turned out to be a wrong number!10 yearsI tried calling back to find out who it was since they hung up as soon as I picked up (happened 4 times). But then I just got a ‘number not recognised’ message.10 yearsthis number belongs to the csa - so irritatingCSA10 yearsIt was the CSA ringing me, so I called them back. I’m not keen on picking up calls from unknown numbers, thats why I looked it up here first before getting back to them.CSA10 yearswatch out for the people saying stuff like "real dwp/csa call, the woman on the phone was so nice" or anything like that. if they really knew who was calling, why are they even on this site trying to find out the number? seems fishy to me.DWPCSA10 yearsJust a heads-up regarding some of the remarks popping up on this site, particularly those that claim things like "authentic call from DWP/CSA" and rave about how pleasant the lady on the line was. If they truly recognised who was calling them, it makes you wonder why they’d be searching for the number on a platform like this in the first place, doesn't it?DWPCSA10 yearsThe phone rang a couple of times, but all I encountered was silence when I picked up. I won’t be calling back either, especially with a rate of 45 pence a minute!10 yearsI keep getting calls from the DWP finance lot but I thought this was supposed to be about the CSA? Quite confusing really.DWPChild Support Agency10 yearsThis number rang like 5 times one after the other but my phone never actually made a noise! Just showed as 5 missed calls. If it was really important they would of left a voicemail or something. After seeing how much it would cost to call back, it all felt kinda dodgy, so I just ignored it.10 yearsGot a call from this number. A lady picked up and asked for the wife. Told her she wasn’t in and she said she’d ring back. When I asked what company she was calling from, she refused to say anything except it was for my wife. When I tried to call back, the number showed up as unknown. 0870361141710 yearsI mentioned to Csa that I had provided incorrect details regarding my data protection, yet they continued to discuss my personal information with me! Quite baffling, really!Csa10 yearsThe caller claimed to be from the DWP but was rather tight-lipped about the purpose of their call until I verified my identity. Having missed a couple of their calls previously, I did a bit of digging and reckoned I had no justification to engage with either DWP or CSA, so I opted not to confirm who I was. The conversation ended abruptly after that.DWPCSA10 yearsI received a couple of calls from this number earlier today, and when I pressed for more information, they were completely tight-lipped about their identity. They keep mentioning something about Data Protection without revealing anything else.Data Protection10 yearsI received a phone call claiming to be from the CSA. Since my kids are all grown up, if they wish to contact me, I’d rather they put it in writing. I have a sneaking suspicion that this isn't genuinely from the CSA, as they typically send a letter before picking up the phone!CSA10 yearsThis number was linked to the CSA.CSA10 yearsAha, so that's who it belongs to! Much appreciated for clearing that up!11 yearsAnyone know who dialled 7 just now?11 yearsI attempted to call back, yet it simply wouldn’t connect. It just kept saying that the number I’ve dialled isn’t valid.11 yearsI received a call on my mobile from a number claiming to be the Department for Work and Pensions. They informed me that I had received too much cash from the Child Support Agency and that they intended to deduct the owed amount from my next couple of payments. However, upon doing my due diligence, I discovered that neither the DWP nor the CSA uses numbers that begin with 0870. I'm left rather puzzled about whether this was a legitimate call or just some sort of scam! Unsure of who reached out to me.Department for Work and PensionsChild Support AgencyDWPCSA11 yearsI received a call from this number, but when I attempted to return the call, I was met with a message stating that the number was unrecognised. Quite puzzling, isn't it?11 yearsthey called saying they were from the department of work and pensions, asking for a reference on someone who works there! tried ringin them back but my phone doesnt pick up incoming calls.Department of Work and Pensions11 yearsI can’t seem to call them back, so do me a favour and just leave it alone, will you?11 yearsI've been getting calls from this number but never seem to be able to answer in time. They ring, yet when I pick up, there's silence on the other end. It's quite frustrating, really!11 yearsThis is the CSA. Initially, they'll claim to be from the DWP until they're certain they're speaking with the correct individual.CSADWP13 yearsThe Child Support Agency is following up to ensure that all payments are up to date.Child Support Agency13 yearsCould someone enlighten me about this number?
