Phone number ☎️ 08712005089 👆 is reported as a number frequently appearing on UK phone bills, often linked to repeated short calls at odd hours, causing unexpected charges. Many users suspect it is connected to monitored alarm systems, specifically ADT, which use this number for line testing or system checks.

I’ve noticed this number popping up on my BT bills loads of times. Looks like it’s been there hundreds of times! I guess I’ll have to dig through my old bills from past years to figure this out. Could this be a BT service number?

I suspect this could be a call made by a monitored alarm system...

I’ve just taken a gander at my BT statement, which I don’t often do, and noticed this peculiar number, 0871 200 5089. According to the bill, we’ve supposedly dialled it 94 times over the last three months. Each call lasted a mere 6 seconds, and BT has the audacity to charge us 28 pence each time, adding up to a staggering £26.33 for the quarter! I’ve had a natter with BT about putting a block on the number, but they’ve informed me that since we’re the ones ringing it, blocking isn’t an option. It’s quite clear that we aren’t making those calls; some crafty scammer has evidently found a way to manipulate the system, causing our phone to automatically ring 0871 200 5089 each night at precisely 3:49am, for just a blink of a second. Now, I’m on a mission to stop this nuisance once and for all!

I've noticed that every night at 00:06, my account gets charged for a six-second call to this number. It’s rather perplexing! I’m completely at a loss as to what's happening and would really appreciate it if someone could help me put an end to this.

I've been getting daily charges from Virgin Media for receiving calls from 0871 2005089 at 06:43. Honestly, I've got no clue who is behind this number and I'm not keen on further communications.

I've been bombarded with incessant calls from 0871 2005 089, ringing me weekly without fail-about thirty times at 10 pence per call! It’s always around that ungodly hour of 2:40am. I've reached out to my provider, Sky, but they haven’t been able to shed any light on the matter. Even BT, when contacted, was equally unhelpful. When I try calling the number, it merely sounds like a fax machine whirring away. Is anyone else out there experiencing the same hassle?

Absolutely, I’m experiencing the very same dilemma. I’ve got a staggering 89 calls logged on my bill, all at the ungodly hour of 5:07am - right when I’m in the land of nod! BT claims they have no idea who’s behind these calls, yet they haven’t been able to block the number. It’s incredibly frustrating!

Every month without fail, I notice an odd series of calls on my bill from 0871 2005 089. It happens around thirty times, charging me ten pence per call, with the nuisance of it all being that they come in the early hours, approximately 2:40 am. I've reached out to Sky regarding this issue, but they’ve been rather unhelpful. I also tried contacting BT, but once again, I received no useful information. The calls sound suspiciously like a fax machine - quite bizarre, isn't it? Is there anyone else who’s experienced something similar?

After quite a bit of effort on our part, ADT has finally acknowledged that the alarm system they installed was indeed the source of those daily calls, ringing us up at a cost of 10p each time to perform routine checks. It's quite staggering that they've now conceded that there was actually a complimentary phone option available all along if you happened to inquire about it!

I've just gone through our billing statement and it appears that I've supposedly called this number more than thirty times round about midday last November. Each call is racking up a charge of 13p! At the moment, I'm on hold trying to get to the bottom of this with BT.

I've been seeing charges pop up on my account for calling this number multiple times each day, for weeks on end. It's all quite baffling, really, as I haven't the faintest idea who it belongs to or why I'm being billed for these calls. It's quite frustrating, to say the least!

This number belongs to your ADT alarm service. If you reach out to ADT, they do have a toll-free number available, which these individuals are supposedly charging you 1 pound a month to access. I’d recommend getting in touch with your local trading standards office to raise a complaint!

Absolutely, I'm experiencing the same predicament. Every night while I’m in a slumber, my bank gets bombarded with 89 calls, all hitting at precisely 5:07. When I reached out to BT, they claimed the callers don’t seem to be familiar with this number. Yet, despite the chaos, they can’t seem to prevent the calls from coming through. What a right pickle!
