85088 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 85088 👆 is reported as a problematic number linked to unauthorised premium-rate text charges, typically around £4.50, often for unsolicited messages from companies like Renegade Mobile Consulting Ltd or related offer services. Most users insist they never subscribed or authorised these messages yet continue to be billed monthly. Network providers offer limited assistance, sometimes advising to text STOP, which isn’t always effective. Complaints to providers and the Phone Paid Services Authority (PSA) are common, with users warning others to avoid engaging with or clicking links from this number. The service appears to exploit vulnerable groups, especially the elderly, with refunds and proper blocking often proving difficult to obtain, prompting calls for greater regulatory intervention and network-level blocking.

7 yearsAvoid the number 85088 like the plague! This company has been quietly taking money from my bank every month without me agreeing to anything. I’ve never signed up or heard of "[email protected][###]", yet they keep deducting £4.50 monthly, and so far I’ve lost £9. They seem to target older people who might not notice straight away. It’s really important that this gets out in all media outlets so others can be aware and stop falling for this scam. Just have a look at how many folks have been tricked by these dishonest people!7 years85088 - I've never signed up, messaged back or clicked any links. Out of the blue, they started taking £4.50 monthly. Reported it to PSA and emailed [email protected][###] who seem to be behind this scam. Still waiting on a reply though.PSA7 yearsGot hit with three texts in like an hour and ended up paying £4.50 altogether. I called Three and the lady I got was no help at all. She refused to give me a refund or block the number, and didn’t bother to explain why. All she told me was to text back "stop" to the messages, which I did, but then I read on Three’s site that they actually advise against doing that. Now I’ve spotted a new charge of 21p on my bill. I’ve emailed the company a handful of times because Three kept telling me that was the only way to contact them. They’ve not gotten back to me yet. Proper frustrating.Three7 yearsJust noticed a £4.50 charge for some random text I never asked for from 85088. It's ridiculous that telcos haven't blocked this number yet, honestly!7 yearsI got a £4.50 charge from 60770 but have no idea what it’s for.7 yearsI got a text from number 85088 that had a link in it - don’t click on it! Somehow I’ve been billed £4.50. I tried texting STOP and also got in touch with Three, but still no word back to say the service has been stopped. Really annoying!7 yearsFor two months straight, my phone bill had an extra £4.50 tacked on and I didn’t notice until now! The charge came from 85088, linked to something called offers-hub. I never agreed to any of it and only got one text message, so no clue what the second was about :( I’m on Three, and all they did was give me an email address to contact for a refund, but honestly, I’m not expecting much. Proper annoying.7 yearsGot a message from 85008 and they charged me £4.50! Proper rip off!7 yearsI got hit with a £4.50 fee for some 'premium message' I never actually sent. Ignored a dodgy text that came through, and then boom, money gone. Proper scam if you ask me.7 yearsMy wife got a text from some dodgy number promoting some sort of scheme. We ignored it at first but then out of nowhere we got a “premium message” and they took £4.50 from our account. We rang their customer support about three times and they were quite helpful, telling us how to block this stuff and said they’d give us back the £4.50. They mentioned that sometimes just clicking on a random ad online can end up sharing your number with these scammers.7 yearsIf you find yourself hit with a £4.50 fee just for getting a random text from this number, make sure to report it to the PSA. Fingers crossed they put a stop to this nonsense soon.PSA7 yearsI didn’t sign up for anything but they’re still taking £4.50 every month from me. Even though Three set my credit limit to zero, it didn’t stop these charges. If it happens again, I’m seriously thinking of closing my account and switching to another provider with a new number. They’re just preying on older folks, it’s ridiculous. In a proper society, this kind of thing would be totally banned!7 yearsFor months now I've been charged £4.50 on my phone bill and have no clue why. When I got in touch with Three, they said it was from a premium rate number and refused to give me a refund. I’ve gone through my messages and there's no evidence I ever messaged that number on the dates listed. Three did give me an email for the company, so I’ve reached out to them but I’m not holding my breath for a reply.7 yearsI popped into a Three store to find out about a £4.50 fee on my bill, and they told me I'd been scammed.

I sent back ‘stop all’ to try and end it. They messaged me about some Shopsafe deal after that. Weirdly, I noticed two £4.50 charges on my bill. I never signed up for any fancy premium ones! Does anyone know how to sort this out? Bit worried I might have to just switch my phone number.7 yearsGot a text from a number I don’t know, saying I could text STOP to unsubscribe from their spam messages.
