Reports on phone number 700040371
9 yearsJust noticed a bill for £4.17 from 65018 on my account, but the weird thing is I never got any messages or calls from that number. I spoke with EE, but they refused to refund since it’s apparently a charge from some third-party firm I have no clue about. Instead, they blocked my phone to stop any more messages coming through and gave me Terra Mobile’s details: phone 020 8611 2592 and email support@10kholidaycash[###]. Planning to reach out to Ofcom too and see what action they can take over this dodgy situation.EETerra MobileOfcom9 yearsSomething fishy happened to me - out of the blue I got two texts saying I’d been charged £5 each for something I never signed up to. It was two separate £5 fees. I replied STOP to 65018 and got a message back saying the service was cancelled. Then I rang EE, and they’re sorting out a refund for me. It’s pretty worrying how easily these charges can pop up. Keep an eye on your bills!EE9 yearsWent on holiday that wasn’t great, then got a text saying I’d won holiday cash so I assumed it was from the place I stayed at. I entered my details on the free entry form and they said thanks. Later, I looked at my phone bill and saw a £4.50 fee. Now I’m getting loads of annoying prank calls too!9 yearsOn the 2nd of August, I got charged £4.17 from 700040370 without knowing why. EE have blocked the number now and I’m going to attempt to get my money back. Tried calling 020 8611 2592 but no one picked up or responded. Next, I’ll email customercare@mgage[###] and hope they actually reply. It’s awful that stuff like this can happen and nobody seems to stop it.EE9 yearsWhat the heck? I just spotted this in my EE account history after I got a random text warning me about low funds. I’ve contacted their support because I definitely never signed up for some prize draw offering £10k holiday money - I’m disabled and not planning any holidays, so it makes no sense. I don’t reckon my complaint will get anywhere, so I’m a bit lost on what to do next. Honestly, it’s awful how they managed to just nick a fiver from me like that.EE9 yearsI noticed a £5 charge from the number 65018 on my bill. I emailed customercare@mgage[###], including my phone number and the SMS code 65018. They replied that they passed my email on to support@win50k[###], which belongs to Terra Mobile Consulting. They told me I’d receive a number within a week, which I need to take to the post office to reclaim the money.Terra Mobile Consulting10 yearsI noticed some odd charges on my bill and reached out to my network for help. They were pretty quick in sorting everything out. The rep told me they'd fully blocked any further charges to my number from that service, so it shouldn’t happen again. Still feels a bit uneasy though. Three customer here.Three Network10 yearsGot hit with a fee from this number for some contest I never signed up for. Tried sorting it with EE but they were no help whatsoever, just stuck to the same boring script saying it was between me and whoever made the charge. I’ve asked them to refund it but looks like I’ll have to report them instead. Honestly, these lot are complete dodgers and EE’s about as handy as a chocolate teacup - the only thing they care about is their cut of the £5. Proper cowboys!EE10 yearsOn 26/12/16, I got charged £8.33 by 65023. No idea what that's about or why it happened.10 yearsLast year, I noticed I was billed £4.17 not once but twice, once in September and again in December. I never signed up for any contests with them, yet they immediately barred my number and quickly processed a refund. The whole refund process felt odd, quite fishy really. It’s like they’re overly courteous just to distract you from the fact it's probably a scam. I’m definitely planning to file a complaint with Ofcom about this.Ofcom10 yearsI followed the steps mentioned and sent an email, and they replied quite quickly: Thanks for reaching out. That charge was actually for entering a competition. They assured me my entry has been cancelled and that I’m now blocked from the service. They also said they’ll refund me, and in about a week’s time I should get a free text from the Post Office on my phone. In that message there’ll be a 19-digit barcode which I need to take to my nearest Post Office to claim a £10 refund, VAT included. Cheers, Customer Service TeamPost Office10 yearsI just found a weird £4.17 fee on my EE bill. I rang EE, and they sorted it out by blocking that number so I don't get hit with it again. They gave me the number 02086112592 to ring if I want to check up on the charge.EE10 yearsI got hit with two £5 charges, and they told me to get in touch on 0208 611 2592 or drop an email to support@win50k[###]. They also said I should text STOP to 65018, which ended up costing me 10p.Submit Your Own Report (700040371)
