Reports on phone number 61177
9 yearsI'm getting texts from Wizzminds, and they're taking £3.50 out of my account every week.Wizzminds9 yearsHave you managed to get any money returned? I've already lost £200, does anyone know how to get that cash back?9 yearsjust like many others here, i looked at my latest phone bill and noticed some unusual charges. i actually got through to someone nice who arranged a conference call and said i'd somehow signed up for a contest. probably an accident. they got my bank info (hoping for the best) and promised to give back 25% of the 100€ they've charged me so far. i'm really angry about it. they need to cut this out or i'll be filing a complaint.10 yearsSo, I received a message and just blocked the sender straight away, thinking that would be the end of it. Then my phone bill arrived and showed five premium texts, each costing £4.50. I never even got to read these messages, probably because they were automatically blocked. Now it seems like I might have to unblock the number and reply with "stop" if I get another one, just to make sure they don’t keep charging me. Quite annoying really!10 yearsWe received a text message from this number, and we're quite puzzled as to how they obtained our details. We're keen to prevent any potential charges that might arise from this. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!10 yearstotally ridiculous! no idea how it even got started but they were taking £3.75 from my account weekly, like 6 times before i noticed on my statement today. i sent a txt saying “stop” and gonna keep an eye on it. also writing an email to try and get it to end completely. has anyone else got their money back from this and knows the best way to ask for a refund?10 yearsI got charged by 61177 too. O2 actually gave me the scammer's name and number, so I rang them for a refund but got no reply, just had to leave my details and ask them to stop the calls and texts. Then I got a text saying I was unsubscribed from their weekly quiz - something I never signed up for - and that no more charges would come through. But after a few weeks, I got billed again, four times at £3.75 each. I have no idea how I ended up subscribed. I'm not paying O2 for this, I’m gonna report it to Ofcom and keep ringing the scammers back on 08000155139.Ofcom10 yearsI came across the number 02033556313, which appears to belong to their customer service department.10 yearsThis is just like others mentioned here. I had no clue about any of this until I saw my latest O2 bill. It showed five separate charges of £3.75 each week, even after I sent the word "stop" to the number. I’m contacting O2 about it now and definitely going to ask for my money back.10 yearsI’m getting charged random amounts like 3.75 three times this month and have no clue what they’re for. I’m on a pension and really can’t afford these sneaky charges. Someone needs to put an end to these scammers, it’s costing me money I don’t have.10 yearsCould you help me figure out how to put an end to this? Thanks a lot!10 yearsSo, I got an email about some holiday deal and decided to reply. They wanted me to enter a pin on my phone to continue. Honestly, it’s pretty dodgy they don’t mention the fees right away. I called my mobile provider, O2, who were really helpful and put a stop to any more charges. But yeah, I’m still gonna ring that 08000 number and ask for my money back.10 yearsI've just received a call from 61177. Is there any way to stop these nuisance calls from happening?10 yearsIt's absolutely infuriating that individuals are sending messages to a young child. We're incredibly upset about the situation but, for the life of us, we're struggling to figure out how to put an end to this nonsense.11 yearsI recently received a message from 61177, and I promptly replied with "quit." They responded saying we’ve been opted out. I’m curious to see if any charges will come through now.11 yearsWe simply texted STOP. Shortly after, we received a reply confirming that those individuals won't be messaging us anymore.12 yearsIt's baffling how these blokes manage to get their hands on our phone numbers, isn't it? And one has to wonder, where on earth is Ofcom in all this racket? They ought to be cracking down on these dodgy scams, don't you think? It's about time something was done!12 yearsTo unsubscribe completely, text QUIT ALL to 61177.12 yearsIf you've shot a text to enter a competition for some beverage, it seems that's how they've snagged your number. To stop this nonsense, simply text 'quit all' to 61177, and that should sort it out.Submit Your Own Report (61177)
