Check unknown Irish numbers with recent reports (Dublin, Cork, Galway, Limerick) and share your experience.
Unsure about an Irish number? Explore concise community reports to judge calls and texts. In Dublin, Cork, Galway and Limerick you’ll see both legitimate callbacks (deliveries, banking, appointments) and waves of robocalls or phishing. Prefixes like 01 (Dublin), 021 (Cork), 091 (Galway), 061 (Limerick), 051 (Waterford) and mobile ranges (083/085/086/087/089) don’t reliably prove location/identity due to portability and VoIP — use them as context, not proof.
Verification: return calls via the official number on the company website/app, check in‑app notices, and never share one‑time codes by phone. Use device/carrier filters (e.g., 0818 shared‑cost, 1800 toll‑free) for repeat issues and leave a short, factual note here to help others.
I commenti confermano, ho vissuto una situazione analoga oggi. L’uomo affermava di essere stato rapinato, senza portafoglio, mostrava sangue sui pantaloni e chiedeva soldi per raggiungere Galway. Ho annotato il numero e, come previsto, la ricerca mostra attività simile da tre anni.
A random number rang then hung up, no big deal.
Unsolicited junk
Fraudulent call impersonating Guarda Siochana
My debit card was used via this number for an unauthorized mobile top‑up; I never gave the card to them, yet they managed to use it to recieve a mobile top‑up.
Someone called saying I owed €79 on a Revolut‑Amazon Prime card, but I don’t even have a Revolut account, dude.
Fraudster targeting gardening, cleaning, gutter, and driveway services.
Appears to be fraudulent.
Got a call from a Deliveroo driver, FYI.
After answering, a dial tone starts after a few seconds.
Very bothersome.
Sounds like a post‑financial message, you know?
That was a nuisance call, man.
That was pretty annoying, man.
Just got a voicemail from a female with an English accent, saying: "charged €699 from your PayPal account this morning from an international money‑transfer site. We think this is suspicious and unauthorized since you’ve never used this service via PayPal. To allow the transaction press 1; to cancel press 2 or speak to support, press 3," – wild, right?
I received a call from 0851644950, asking to stop; Simone speaking.
Looks like I missed the call, huh.
They continue to call repeatedly.
Honestly, I don’t think it’s a scam; looks like PTSB Finance arranging Irish Life Insurance appointments, and the number actually appears on their site, you know.
This appears to be fraudulent.
Use the official number listed on the company website/app and check in‑app messages; avoid calling back the unknown number.
No. Portability/VoIP make geographic/mobile ranges unreliable as location proof.
Delivery updates, bank callbacks, 2FA codes; robocalls, parcel/account phishing, scripted sales.
Caller type, purpose, date/time, and cues that guided your decision.
