02202

Now, "Lol", that's not very polite, calling us idiots... Isn't the customer always right?

Just recieved a call from this number for the first time. Didn't answer as I normally do with weird numbers, might answer next time and give them the run around for a while.

Surely there must be a way for someone to track this number, don't you have to register with BT or someone to set up a phone number?

I've had FIVE phone calls from this phone number in the past week. I have no idea who they are or why they're calling and it's seriously irritating. I haven't answered any of the times that they've called. However, whenever I don't pick up a call, it says that I have a voicemail message and when I call 901 to listen, there's no noise. :|

I would like to to know who it is.

This is a genuine call from a company who work for O2.

01/03/2010 16:04 recived call from this number didn't answear as number was not in my phonebook.

My daughter is being called by this number but they just hang up/or missed call. However everytime she has one of these calls her pay-as-u-go credit goes down considerably. Anyone now how to stop this? it's really causing a problem as she is only twelve.

Had tow missed calls from them, can't text them can't call them? who the heck are they?

I have just recently started to get calls from this number, they hang up before I can answer.  I do wonder if it is connected to a call I recieved from a telemarketer number 02079253600 as the calls started shortly after this call.  I have phoned O2 who said they didn't know anything about this number

that number just called me but i thought it was o2 phoning with offers so i ignored it but it did on ring for like 5 seconds so i looked up to see who it was and im glad i did now ive read this forum, cheers!

I recieved a call from these too, the line was silent until i spoke and 'Tom' was a representitive from o2 calling about my account - then hung up.

Ive just had a one to one chat with o2 and heres the outcome - please note, a little suspicous i get told to go to the police and then at the end of the convo im almost pursuaded not to

Welcome to O2 live chat. Someone will start chatting with you soon.

You're through to Peter.

Peter: Hi Alley, I'm Peter from O2 online chat. How can I help you today?

Alley: I have had a nuisance call from number 02202, a guy called Tom but he didnt proceed the conversation and hung up on me, can you stop these calls?

Peter: Don't worry, I can definitely help you with this.

Peter: Just to confirm, your mobile number is 07707 587 646. Am I correct?

Alley: Yes

Peter: Alley, if you're receiving nuisance calls from any particular numbers then you get it blocked if your mobile has a feature of blocking the calls.

Alley: It does not

Peter: In that case, the only option is to report these numbers to the police.

Peter: They'll investigate it for you.

Alley: Im not sure the police can help if its being claimed o2 is calling ,e

Peter: Please give me a minute while I'll check this for you.

Peter: It seems that the calls you're referring to are marketing calls. In this case, I'd suggest you to register for the Telephone Preference Service. Registering your number with the Telephone Preference Service on 0845 070 0707 will remove your phone number from any marketing lists. You can also do this by using the link below: http://www.tpsonline.org.uk/tps/ 

Alley: Im already registered with TPS. Do you know who the company is?

Peter: Please click here for to register for the same.

Peter: I'm afraid we'll be unable to check who is callingyou.

Alley: Then how do you know its a marketing call?

Peter: This number is from O2 marketing department. They call the customers when they're eligible for offers and promotions.

Alley: I made it quite clear in the past not to call me and if this was the case, why stay silent until I have spoken and why hang up for no reason? I will take this matter to the police.

Peter: I understand what you mean. But I'm sorry this happened.

Peter: What I can do is I'll forward your request to the support team and they'll stop these calls for you.

Alley: It appears from research i have obtained im not the only one 'o2' do it too - if this really is o2, do you realise what bad customer service it is making nuisance calls? and no thank you Peter, the police will deal with it.

Peter: Please give me a chance and I'll try to look into this for you.

Alley: You said at the start of the conversation to go to the police. So i am.

Peter: That was if you were receiving nuisance calls with the known number.

Alley: And i am receiveing nuisance calls, hence this conversation.

Peter: We can deal with the marketing calls and I'm sure I'll get this stopped for you.

Peter: Yes Alley, but this are marketing calls, which can be dealt with.

Alley: By the police. Thank you for your time.

f**kin hell farrrr too much time on ur hands there love....people get a grip.... as told by 'peter' its o2 marketing call...not a prank number... or a bogus company etc etc..

Im sure if you was concerend youd do the same - and i was providing info for other people on this thread - so thanks for your useless opinion.

Definitely 02, definitely an outsourced sales team, and definitely targeting PAYG customer, which is why they're asking for details - they have your number, but unless the SIM is registered, they don't have anything else!

I picked up a free SIM a few days ago for emergencies/spare phone, which is clearly why they've phoned my main number. Explained it was for spare/emergencies so therefore I wasn't sure what kind of use it would get, and that was that. All perfectly polite.

Heyah all help for you gguys if you text stop to 02202 they wont ring you anymore, its asking you if you want to be on a diffrent price plan :) would love it if you could reward me by subscribing to my youtube channel you have to be a member to sign up though:/ thanks x

Its O2 marketing. Why are people calling it a scam?

It was regarding my O2 broadband renewal, just got 2 months for free by renewing another year. I was greatful for the call. Towards the start of the call I did have to confirm my name and first line of address but they instantly provided me with sensitive information that only o2 would know such as when i changed my package, how much i normally pay for my broadband and my last o2 broadband bill which was larger than normal due to an o2 cockup.

this number called me today while at school, i answered cus it was after we finished. But i was walking through the corridor at the time and it was really noisy so i couldn't hear the other end of the line very well but it was a woman talking, like hi, im from....callin about...... - like a professional company but i couldn't hear it :/

also in my phonebook are automatically added contacts one is the o2 info hotline, the number: 2202 - the same but without the 0, cud be a coincidence like but...
