Reports on phone number 44700034001
3 yearsThis 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!3 yearsFound 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.Ofcom3 yearsComplete 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!3 yearsI'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?3 yearsI got hit with a £19 fee!? What a rip-off! Total scam.3 yearsBeware, this is definitely a scam trying to get your payment info.3 yearsI 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.3 yearsI blocked the number 44700034001 after noticing some money missing from my account, but even now I've spotted three more charges. How are these scammers still getting through and what can we do to put an end to this?4 yearsI received a charge of £1.50 for every text message sent.4 yearsGot hit with three separate premium texts costing £1.50 a pop but never got any messages back.

Not happy about being charged and getting zilch in return.4 yearsI 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.4 yearsThis 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.4 yearsCalled by 44700034001, got charged £1.50 and didn’t get a single thing.
