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?

In January I got three calls, each costing £1.50, which adds up to about £4.50. December was the same, three calls for £1.50 each, again a total of £4.50. Weird thing is, none of them show up 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.

Absolutely shocking! Got charged £1.50 for a message I never asked for, and now I'm stuck with an £18 bill. Ridiculous!

my phone bill kept rising by about £1.50 every couple of days. I called Virgin and they put a cap on my spending so it wouldn’t go past a set amount. They actually gave me back £12 for scam texts I’d been charged for. You’ve gotta text 8522 with STOPALL to sort it out.

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 keep getting charged £1.50 almost daily for a text I never get from the number 44700034001. I called Virgin, my network, but they said they’re unable to block that particular number. I’ve even set my phone to block all premium numbers, but it hasn’t stopped.

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.

Apparently its a premium rate line, but ive never called it myself. Every few days i notice £1.50 getting taken, always right around 17:25. I spoke with Virgin Mobile and they told me to text 'stop' to the number, but my phone says the number isnt valid. So now my only options seem to be either keep paying the charge or change my number entirely.
