08000232635

Sick of getting these calls, I've asked for my number to be deleted over and over but they won't listen. I'm deaf, they know I'm deaf but still call anyway.

I've taken to just chanting "I am deaf send a letter" until they hang up, it's not like I can cure myself just to suit other people.

Called about 4.30; I didn't answer.  I never answer 08000 numbers as they have always proved to be scam-lines or telemarketers (although the difference between the two is paper-thin).  I always check numbers out on this site (which is a God-send) to see what pond-life is currently hassling me.  I obviously discovered a near consensus here that this is the DWP, who I was expecting a call from.  So I made a note of the number and felt more confident to answer a subsequent call from the same at about 5.00.  A very polite lady asked my name (but no other details), which I confirmed, and she had ably (and swiftly) resolved my query.  My sympathies for all the vulnerable people here, but I fear that the real s**t-storm is yet to happen...the inevitable death-throws of the Occident.

They contacted not only myself but also the council that my benefits had been stopped, being a national who requires these benefits legitimately, I was put under stress that I really do not need. I feel that this is personal and I'm very upset.

They rang in lesson and at night didn't pick up tho

I missed your call today .could you please call me back.

To find out if this is a scam or not 08000232635 got phoned up dwp!!!

had this number twice today never heard of it before. i phone income support and job centre and neither heard of number. does anyone know i it genuine or not. i not expectng call and far as i know my benefits ok which i been claiming for a while now.

I have received two calls from this number that I haven't answered. I have not made a claim or any enquiries with the DWP so can't understand why they would be ringing me.

They rang me today. I picked up and heard continuous beeping for awhile. I rang the number back and got the automated voice message about how they would call me back later if they needed to contact me.

After googling this number I am  very confused to what this number is. Is it a scam or is it the department of work and pension? I do claim jobseekers but I am not editing my claim or anything. The only number im expected to really get is the job centre to call me about jobs I can apply for. I will ask the job centre on Monday about this but its starting to worry me.

have rang me 7or8 times since 11am this morning i answer then they hang up

Hi, Has this number call me. Never answered it and returned call to get DWP voice message. They rang back stated they were DWP doing a benefIt review. She spoke poor english. I asked her when was i last in touch with the DWP. She told me and the information i give was correct. Did a review over the phone to see if anything had changed in my circumstances. Had no letter to say they would ring. Totally out of the blue. Could have been reported for something as i upset a lot of people in life. However if it was something dodgy i would of had a letter headed letter from the compliance officer requesting a interview.

If you use 1471 or manually dial 0800232635 you get "beep beep beep the number you have dialed has not been recognised"

this number rang me and i have no idea, if its the dwp if its important they will ring back

DWP.

Just had a call from this number claiming to be DWP saying it would be a 15 minute interview about my benefits as they no longer send out forms???????? Said I was not happy about the call and they would send out a form instead??? Woman who called has English as a second language so that's why alarm bells rang straight away.

Just missed a call from this number. Interesting to read here that it is allegedly from the DWP as I don't claim any benefits nor receive any benefits, and there's no reason they should be ringing me.

The no called me kept on saying hello just heard noise in the background. Phoned them back and the automated message said the dwp of pensions called you and if they heed to contact u again then they will call you back

Got a call from this number today 08000232635. Didnt answer it as tend to noit answer 0800 numbers. Looking online I see its DWP about new claims but ive been on jsa since may/june last year so why would they need to contact me about a new claim. They left me a voicemail saying 'You have been called by the department of work and pensions but did not answer. We will call you back later' Getting worried now :S

This is job centre

I've just phoned the DWP & they claim it isn't them. I've had 5 calls & when i've answered i just got a bleeping tone. When i've hung up & tried to phone out my phoneline has been tied up & i've been unable to dial out for a few minutes.
When i've rung back the answer mavhine on the other end says it's from the DWP with out giving the deparment that called.
