700046112 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 700046112 👆 is reported as a persistent premium text message scam charging users weekly amounts around £3.75 to £4.50 without clear consent, often linked to phantom competitions or lottery updates. Victims, including vulnerable and elderly individuals, report difficulty stopping charges as messages appear disguised and deletion of texts often results in ongoing billing. Mobile providers and regulators have been criticised for inadequate support and slow responses, with many advising to text “STOP” or “STOP ALL” to a specific shortcode to halt charges. Some users have had to cancel contracts or contact consumer watchdogs and police. Though providers claim to send opt-out options via text, these can be easily overlooked. It is recommended to scrutinise bills carefully and seek help directly from providers’ in-store teams or official complaint channels.

The number 700046112 charged me £3.75 every week supposedly to win an M&S voucher - total rip off! I admit I didn’t check or print my bill, but I never consented to anything like this. It must have been sneaked in with all the junk messages I get constantly. After I raised a complaint, they claimed they send a text each month giving the option to cancel, but I must’ve just deleted those thinking they were spam. Honestly, watch out, these folks are really sneaky.

I’ve been trying to get my £120 back from 3 Mobile after they admitted the number was connected to a scam, but they just won’t refund me. I’ve closed all my accounts with them now and plan on reporting everything to the police and to Watchdog. Honestly, if you’re in the same boat, I’d recommend doing the same.

If you want to stop the charges, just give 03332027724 a ring and they’ll sort it out for you.

This month I got hit with an £18 charge and it took me ages to figure out what was going on. I thought if I sent a STOP message I’d get charged, so I just ignored the texts altogether. But every Monday without fail, I get three messages about winning prizes. It’s so frustrating!

I was away from the UK for several weeks and when I checked my mobile bill, I saw that 13 texts had been charged at £4.50 each without me agreeing to it. The total came to £58.50 on the latest statement. I haven’t looked into earlier bills yet but I’m worried there could be more. None of this was authorised by me and it definitely feels like illegal activity.

Just switched over from BT to Three, so I gotta wait for the next bill to sort things properly. They told me to text STOP ALL to 88227. My number's 700046112 if anyone needs it.

I just got the phone bill for my grandson - I’m the one who pays it. It’s come to more than £63 and Virgin don’t seem bothered about helping. I’ll be calling them again tomorrow to try and sort this out.

I used 88227 to block it and haven’t had any more calls since then.

700046112 turned out to be a right rip-off. I kept getting a text every week charging me £3.75, never asked for any of it. The worst part, no way to unsubscribe anywhere! Before I knew it, my bill shot up by £15. I called EE and they finally said to text STOP to 88227. Fingers crossed it actually stops now.

I gotta say, same here - I never rang that number, yet they still charged me £4.50 on three separate occasions. It’s really frustrating!

Just checked my BT bill for June 2016 and noticed four charges of £4.50 each to the number 700046112, adding up to £18. I didn’t make any calls or reply to any messages from that number, yet £4.50 was taken at 20:10 every Sunday throughout June. BT has now blocked all premium rate calls on my phone, but I won’t know if it’s effective until I see the next bill. I was told this number is linked to 033302020478, and there’s an email contact listed as [email protected][###]. The firm behind it is called Xinion, managed by IMIMobile. Has anyone heard if the police are looking into this?

Had the exact same issue! I called Virgin and they just wouldn't take any blame or provide a way to block the calls. They told me to text STOP to the number, but that goes against most advice since it just lets the scammer know the number’s active. So, I've ended up cancelling all three contracts for my kids with Virgin and now I’m thinking of switching to Giffgaff instead.

Absolutely infuriating! Someone's nicking cash from my mobile. If I ever manage to get my hands on them, they’d be wishing they'd never crossed paths with me.

I had a similar thing happen with Virgin Mobile. I messaged the number 88227 and got a response saying it would be stopped. Guess we’ll wait and see if it actually does.

I've been getting messages from 700046112 which ended up adding around £18 to my phone bill. The texts claim I’ve joined some Morrison’s weekly prize draw or something. This scam was even mentioned in the local paper here. I sent a STOP text to 88227, fingers crossed it actually works. EE really need to take some action against these dodgy texts.

They're taking £4.50 every week from me, which adds up to about £18 on my BT bill each month.

I've been getting a text every Saturday from 700046112, titled XWLOTTO, which seems to be sharing lottery results. The thing is, I never asked for these messages. I'm quite baffled as to how I can stop them from coming through. Any suggestions?

On the 9th of May, 2016, we received a text message from this number and, rather perplexingly, found ourselves billed £4.50. We're quite baffled, as we never engaged with the message in any way-didn't open it, nor did we respond. What on earth could have caused this charge?

I got charged £13.50, so I texted STOP to 88227. I'm gonna keep an eye on my next bill to check if that sorted it out. If it does, I'll post an update here for everyone.

This number has charged me £13.50 too, which is really unfair. I'm on a pension and these costs are just too much for me. I never gave permission to receive those texts. Honestly, this feels completely illegal, so I'm going to report it to Phone Pay Plus.

I noticed a couple of charges of £3.75 each on my phone bill from a number that shows 0 seconds call time. Tried contacting EE but they weren’t any help and said they can’t block it. Feels like I’m stuck with no real solution.
