For almost two years a persistent caller claiming to be an O2 rep named Tony has been dialing me up to ten times a week. After discovering the Manchester‑based number was fraudulent, I asked for my details to be removed and the call was cut. No legitimate O2 employee would act like that – never share personal info, block the number and move on.
Persistent O2 Scammers Beware

Expert Opinion
Reports consistently highlight persistent calls from this Manchester-based number, with callers impersonating O2 representatives to extract personal details. Victims describe relentless tactics, including up to 10 calls weekly over two years, and abrupt disconnections when challenged. No legitimate O2 agent would behave this way. Block the number immediately to halt harassment, and report to Action Fraud for investigation. Avoid sharing any information, as these are classic scam operations designed to steal data. If calls continue, consider registering with the Telephone Preference Service for added protection. Staying vigilant prevents identity theft risks.
