700046078 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 700046078 👆 is reported as a recurrent source of unauthorised premium rate charges, often around £3.75 to £4.50 weekly, linked to unsolicited text messages or calls with no clear user consent. Many affected users, primarily on Virgin, EE, and BT networks, have faced difficulties obtaining refunds, with providers sometimes denying responsibility despite clear breaches of regulatory rules requiring cost transparency. Complaints highlight poor communication from network operators and persistent billing despite efforts to block or stop the service. The originating company often cited is Oxygen8 Communications (or associated entities), which denies responsibility when confronted. Users are advised to contact the Paid Phone Services Authority, submit evidence of billing, send STOP texts to shortcode numbers, and seek refunds through official watchdog channels to address this ongoing issue effectively.

For the past two years, my Virgin Mobile account has been charged anywhere from £18 to £30 every month, but I have no clue why. The amount keeps changing. The bills reference number 700046078. Virgin refuses to admit any fault and said they can’t even stop the charges themselves.

I've been getting charged £30 each month from these two numbers 700046078 / 700046127 and like many others, it's pushed us way over our planned budget. We switched from EE thinking they were the ones ripping us off, but now I don't get why no one warned us about these fees. It's possible it's been happening for ages. Honestly, this feels like a total scam and something needs to be done to stop these crooks.

They was taking £3.75 each week for texts I never agreed to. I got in touch with the Paid Phone Services Authority (PSA) and they told me to text STOP to the number, which finally ended the charges. PSA then investigated and confirmed the firm broke Rule 2.2.7, so they’re supposed to refund anyone who asks. You’ll need to show your phone bill with the charges on it. Reach out to the company and make sure you get your cash back!

Rule 2.2.7 - Whenever a PRS is advertised, whether verbally, in writing, or through any kind of media, the cost needs to be shown before any purchase, and it should be obvious, easy to read, and placed close to the premium phone number, shortcode, or whatever method is used to access the service. For refund queries, contact Republic Response B.V at Email [email protected][###] or phone 0800 4080 781.

I noticed every week a charge from 66299 on my bill and saw Virgin Mobile was taking £4.50 each time for some tax. I rang Virgin and now I'm trying to get my money back. The number that appeared on my statement was 700046078.

For months now, this number has been appearing on my EE bill and racking up charges without me realising. My phone bills have shot way past what I usually spend, and now my phone's been cut off. I really want them to refund all the money they’ve taken over these last few months. Honestly, I don’t get why phone companies let this happen :(

For months I kept gettin these annoying texts from a 66299 number and just ignored em, thought it was nothing. I couldn’t check my EE bill online and didn’t get any bills through the post, so I had no idea. Then about six months later after I got a new phone, I found out they’d been charging me £3.75 for each text. EE never told me some outside company was billing me. Loads of the texts I never even got! All up it cost me £86 and apparently EE can’t do anything about it!! Reported it to the watchdog now.

This scam has already drained me of £84 since Nov. EE just couldn’t care less, they keep refusing to take responsibility. I reached out to PSA and Oxygen but got nowhere. Fingers crossed EE have finally blocked all those premium services now. Time will tell. I’m also planning to get in touch with the watchdog. There’s power when we all stand together.

The number 700046078 and similar ones have been calling me nonstop. Last month I ended up paying over £20 and it's already the same this month. I’m gonna call EE first thing this morning. This is just ridiculous, has anyone here actually managed to sort this out?

This keeps showing up on my missus’ phone bill every week, charging us £4.50 each time. We never asked for it! Usually happens around 2 in the morning too. Surely this has to be against the law? Anyone know how to get it stopped?

I rang 01223590555 and got a woman with a foreign accent answering - she said it was ZAMANO and flat out denied having my mobile number or using it at all. BUT she said that right away without even HAVING the chance to CHECK anything - feels like they’re not taking any responsibility. What’s the next step to get some action against this scam? Any advice would be really helpful.

My EE Pay-as-you-go account got charged £4.50 out of nowhere. I didn’t get any text at all but my call log shows "received text service" from 700046078 for £4.50. Tried reaching EE but they’re not helpful and pretty hard to get hold of. They said they’d block that number, but I’ll believe it when I see it.
