I just had a missed call from this number but googled it. The same people are also calling me from 0845 502 8990 so if you get a call from this number ignore it as well. Whenever I answered the previous number they would ask for me by name and then hang up (not quite sure what the point of this is??) They are relentless and call me at least once a day. Since I have been ignoring them I guess they decided to try another number.

I called the 0845 no. back first time and it said it was Phones4U, although clearly not! I never give my mobile number out to companies so god knows where they god it from – seriously annoying!!

er guys… sorry to kill your drama but this number is actually phones 4u! I should know, I work there! Their head office is based in newcastle under lyme which has an area code of 01782. The reason why you receive loads of calls is they have an automated dialler that keeps calling customers back who they can’t get hold of. The best way to stop the calls is to answer them and asked to be removed from their marketing lists if your not interested.

I have had about 8 calls off this number today and received a text from Phones 4 U a couple of days ago – Glad I’ve googled the number. I am currently a customer of Phones 4 U. I also recieve calls from 0845 0264331 – They never leave a message – If they did I’d probably me more inclined to answer!

I have been having this number call me for about 3 weeks at different times of day up to 3 or 4 times a day.

I have also had 01782 603520 call me.

Be aware!

I have had 2 calls today. I don’t answer to numbers i don’t recognise but I googled the area code as I have been applying for jobs and didn’t want to miss out on an interview.
I am with Vodafone but I did get my phone from one of Phones4U’s subsiduaries and they aere pestering me with texts about an upgrade last week
