My boyfriend has just had a call from this number, however, me and my twin actually got conned in to going to this company earlier last year! My sister was approached on the street by someone in town. They asked her to do a questionaire on fashion and then she would be entered into a prize draw. A few days later they rang her to say she had one a free makeover and photo shoot. They asked for money off her to reserve her slot. When she to told me I though this was a bit weird as you don't really pay for something you have supposedly won! Anyway we went down to London having paid £54 on the trains. We got there had a quick hair and makeover and the photo session was even more rushed. They didn't even look at the information we had provided for what we wanted. After the session we had to wait 2 and a half hours for the photos to be ready. We then had to go into this room to look at these photos. We thought we would get one free but it turned out we wouldn't! They were charging £45 for the first 6 by 4 and then £70 thereafter. They then tried to get us to buy a CD which they said would be the copyrights for the pictures - each picture would be £100 each!I didn't understand this seeing as we hadn't given the photographer consent to use them for his own purpose anyway. In the end me and my sister managed to get them to put four pictures on the CD's for £200. I don't understand how on earth they can get away with conning people like this! Surely it is illegal! They were blatantly ringing up everybody that stopped in the street to fill in a quaetionnaire to say they had won! Will never fall for this again!

Yep, had the call as well, not impressed - they didn't get as far as asking me for money - I wouldnt let them get away with dodging the question "WHAT COMPETITION??" erm one you entered online - well if I'd entered it online - surely you'd know where when and how I'd won! - aha! No thanks, not today!

Just got called by them, answered and there was nothing on the other end and then the phone went dead after a couple of seconds.

I've been called by them before and I led them on a bit before never calling them back. I asked who it was that had given them my number, and then I asked that person! Turned out she had been and got some photos done, and had given them my number as she was told that somebody would win the whole lot for free.

if they call back again I will give them what for. Idiots.

such a mug, for once fell for something, because i remember filling out some form as you do online. see if i can attempt the refund, otherwise ill go for a laugh

Recieved call today.
Never even entered a competition.
They said I entered it from Oxford Circus.
(I haven't been to London for a year and tend to avoid people with clip boards.)
Fobbed them off with a made up email.
I can air brush my own photos thank you!

Luckily my gut is good.
If anyone is desperate for a make over;contact a legit studio.
Back ground checks on all 'Make over' 020 numbers is advised!

Had a call from this number on my mobile, I answered it and it sounded like a recorded message, although they rang off as soon as I had said hello.

Have a look at "who calls me 02075803229". Seems as though they have changed their number.
You have not won a prize. Unless you can stand up to the hard sell, you end up being conned into paying a lot of money for photographs.

This number keeps calling me too. No1 speaks, I didnt phone it back but instead i googled the number and found this site. Its good hear that im not the only one. Im angry that some1 I know has given my number to these pricks! Thanks for all your info. I'm not looking to be the next Kate Moss lol and if I was I certainly wouldnt use this con company! Im going to report it to the police website given above. Good luck every1.x

i've been before and it is a brilliant day out. it cost me £2 for me and my best mate to go and hav the pictures done, they are very professional and the photographers were so lovely cos i was really really nervous. the con is that the pictures cost about £50 each but they cant force u 2 buy them. i took advantage of their ridiculous offer and then refused 2 buy a single photo. i received a hair and makeup styling, hand massage and then the photo shoot. it was a brilliant day out that i did with my best mate before i moved to uni. i wud even recommend giving this studios photography as a gift because the pictures were so expensive. jst keep strong n dont but ne pictures!!!!!

They have called me several days in a row  now and today i finally answered and it took them 30 seconds to answer to me. I do know someone that has recently been to this studio but i certainly have never been to Oxford circus or signed up to a magazine subscription or entred a competition.
I won be happy if i found out my friend gave my number to these people as i have done bloody well at keeping these kind of scamming people away.
The lady on the phone was trying to get me to put a deposit down but wouldnt tell me how much as it depended what slot i could make. I went on to say if i have "won" this then why on earth am i paying a deposit. She tried to say your basically reserving a professional photographer.
If i want professional pics done i know someone that can do them, i dont need to go all the way to London THANKS.

Please gals dont fall for it! Let your friends know about the scam.

Always phone the studios direct and question these kind fo calls.

They have just called me, couldn't really understand a word he was saying because he was asian and speaking so fast but something along the same lines, he wanted me to go in tomorrow at 2.15!! i was like, urm no, i have to work full time, and then when he asked me about booking in next week i said i don't have the money to pay for the deposit...to which he then said, 'but you work full time, you must have a bit spare' cheeky f***er, i said, eys and i have lots of rent and bills to pay. He said the deposit was £40 for me on my own or £65 with a guest as well, and after i told him i had no money i managed to get the deposit price down to £30 for both of us... strange that. Grrrrrr

they called and mentioned an name and said they were your friend aand they had recommended my name for a do. surprisingly I DO NOT KNOW THIS FRIEND OF MINE, what a con

i said to email me details and the sales guy almost abruptly put the phone down

BE WARE!!!

Ive had a call today but missed it so tried to call back and the number is always engaged. I have no idea how they have my number and i am anoyed as its my business phone they are calling.

I have had calls from this number all week. I explain that i am NOT interested!! Call the Studio themselves on 02073235888 and request that they take your number off the system. They are programmed to call you until you sign up...

Glad I have found this site, I've had a missed call from this number for the last three days, they only call once and never leave a voicemail which I thought was odd. Definately won't be answering now, thanks everyone who has posted to say who it is.

keeps calling me and when i answered it thay asked was thay through to lynne and when i said yes thay hung up .

Got a call at 6.30pm. The man had a very high falsetto voice could barely understand him so it was obviously a joke! I told them to shove it (Not quite so politely) and hung up.

So I decided to answer today... scarily they knew my name... and claimed my "friend" Georgina Simmonds (or something) gave them my number... rather surprisingly I don't know this name! I told him I wasn't interesting and while I was saying to take my number off their list he hung up on me. Idiot!

This number has rung me over 50 times in two weeks. i kept missing the calls, as i was at work, but when i finally did get the chance to answer the phone they didnt speak to me..

So i decided to google the numberm and found this website, and after reading all the comments i will not be answering to this number.

I also thinks its wrong how they ask people to give out other peoples numbers, just so they can try to earn a few quid by trying to scam people.
