This number kept calling me more than 15 times and I never answered. Yet they still took out £1.50 for premium texts that never showed up on my phone. Pretty annoying!

Found loads of pricey text messages sent from this number without my go ahead after my data limit was hit. This looks dodgy so I’ve already told my phone provider and the police fraud team. Waiting to hear back from the network before I escalate it to OFCOM. If this has been going on since 2021, why hasn’t it been sorted yet? Definitely report anything suspicious linked to this number and make sure you block it.

Complete scam, keeps texting me constantly and charging £1.50 each time. Can't figure out how I ever signed up for it. Also, watch out for the number 44700034002 - they’re up to the same trick!

I've been getting about eight texts every month from 44700034001 and each one costs me £1.50. Does anyone know how I can block or stop these messages?

I received three calls in December, racking up a total charge of £4.50 at £1.50 each. Then, in January, I had another three calls, which brought the total to the same amount of £4.50 for those as well. However, none of these calls appear to be marked as answered.

I got hit with a £1.50 charge from 44700034001, seems like a scam. Tried contacting my network provider but it's impossible to talk to a real person. My bill suddenly doubled last month and then again this month, thanks to premium text messages I never got. Paid for nothing and my provider is no help, feels like they're all in on it.

This number is definitely involved in one of those premium text scams. You’d think mobile networks would have caught onto this by now, but they don’t seem bothered since they probably take a cut themselves. OFCOM’s handling of this is really disappointing. They should freeze the funds on suspicious accounts for about three months so scammers never get a penny until they're confirmed legit. That would put a stop to these scams straight away.

I somehow ended up clicking a link on Facebook by mistake and then got hit with £6 added to my phone bill thanks to some dodgy premium texts from number 44700034001 charging £1.50 a message even though I didn’t ask for any. This kind of thing really needs to be stopped.

I've just had a look at my mobile bill and noticed I've been charged for 13 calls from the premium number 44700034001, each costing £1.50! Seems like I've fallen victim to some dodgy scammers, doesn't it? Absolute nightmare!

Absolutely outrageous! I never asked for that text and now I've got a £18 bill for it. What a rip-off at £1.50 a pop!

I noticed my bill was creeping up by £1.50 nearly every couple of days, so I decided to give Virgin a ring. They were quite helpful and put a cap on my spending to prevent any nasty surprises. Fortunately, they also refunded me £12 for those dodgy scam texts I'd received. If you're in the same boat, make sure to text 8522 and send STOPALL!

Got random texts from some number I didn’t recognise, maybe DealAlerts? Each time they charge me £1.50 but the texts never show up in my messages. Checked my bank statement and yeah, £1.50 gone every time. The number, 44700034001, doesn’t seem legit at all. Anyone know how I can get this stopped?

This number has been taking £1.50 out of my account multiple times, which ended up making my phone bill twice as much last month. My network couldn’t do anything to sort it out. I’ve never even got a call or text from this number. I had no choice but to put a full limit on my bill because of it.

I've noticed a charge of £1.50 appearing on my bill almost daily for a text message that I’m not even getting from the number 44700034001. I rang up Virgin, my service provider, but they informed me that they are unable to block this particular number. I've already taken the precaution of blocking all premium rate numbers on my device. How frustrating!

Be careful, this number shows up as a premium rate on mobiles - it ain't included in your plan, so youre gonna see extra charges labelled as "premium rate test" on your bill.

I had a rather frustrating experience with Virgin Mobile when I was slapped with an £18 charge. In the end, I decided to part ways with Virgin Media altogether, as they just couldn’t sort out the problem for me.

I've just checked my account and noticed a recurring £1.50 charge from a premium rate number that I've never called. It seems to be happening every few days at precisely 17:25. I reached out to Virgin Mobile for help, and they suggested texting 'stop' to the number, but it appears that the number isn’t valid. It seems my options are either to keep shelling out the cash or consider switching to a new phone number altogether. What a right kerfuffle!
