poorbutrich

I am joining the ranks of people being slient called by 0800 0641087. Does anyone know how they got our numbers?

And now 0161 608 2800.... I was expecting some bad news from my friend in Manchester, so I am doubly annoyed to have got this call!

Over the last few days I too have suddenly started to receive calls from 0800 064 1087.

It all started after I recieved a call from 0161 380 0417 a few days earlier. I answered it and they said they were phoning on behalf of O2 and wanted to ask me some questions. I told them I was busy. A day later 0161 380 0442 called me. Now we're onto the 0800 number above.

This is very annoying.

Pleased (?!) to report that the 08000641087 number is still calling people as they tried my mobile phone last night. Didn't hear it ring so got the number as a missed call, checked online before calling it back and found this thread so I won't bother!

Received a call yesterday from the same number (08000641087) claiming to be 02 and asking for details to confirm my name and DOB, stating that my sim isn't registered they asked how do i top up, by vouchers or through my bank card.

Im slightly suspicious and looking into it.

I just googled this number - 0800 064 1087

I was just phoned by this number... annoying as hell claiming to be o2 and said about broadband and asked me what speeds we was getting, price.. even what bloody PS3 games I played!!!

anyhow, phoned that number to remove my numerbers from list.. hopefully that works.

if not, I'll pick up the next one and say remove it!

Also got a call from 08000641087 today, I didnt answer it and when I googled I too found this thread. These people are low life scum as far as I'm concearned.

Been ignoring this telephone number (0800 064 1087) for ages, but today decided to answer it on my mobile.

Lady said "this is so an so calling from 02", I promptly replied saying "You do not work for 02, you work for LBM Marketing", to which she said she did not, and that she did work for 02. I then go on to ask her to stop calling me, if I want a new 02 product, I'll get in touch with them (just upgraded to the iPhone 4 a few weeks back, and quite happy). She asked why I thought she was from LBM Marketing to which I said that I had carried out some research on the number through Google. She told me to ignore everything I have read on Google, it was all lies :rotfl:

Anyhow, I asked her to remove my name from their list and she said she can't. I then told her that I would add the number as a contact in my phone with the name IGNORE LBM so it will show up when they contact me. Job done.

I'll contact the number mentioned previously here, and see if my number can be removed from their spam list.

Annoyed, angry, and sick of these cash extraction companies trying to rip me off right, left and center :mad:

I've had a couple of missed calls from the LBM number too. I get so many sales calls on my mobile these days I tend to ignore any number that isn't in my address book. If they don't leave a messsage it can't have been that important can it?

I have just googled the number 08009524854, which on researching is LBM. They can't hold the line wrong but this is one in a long list of numbers which have attempted to phone me over recent weeks.

I had this number last week 02920822641 - which were claiming to be vodafone with a special offer:mad: and no amount of me saying I wasn't interested, they couldn't beat the deal I am currently on and could they remove my number from their list made the woman shut up. Eventually I said that if they didn't remove my number and continued to harass me I would go to the police - she removed my number pretty sharpish at the mention of harassment (my current line for these numbers)

Just got called by 0800 064 1087, didn't answer.

This number used to call me months ago but I always ignored it and then it stopped, now it seems to have started again...

I'm not an O2 or Vodafone customer and haven't knowingly spoken to any of these companies ever.

EDIT 1: I'm now getting Optical Express competition text messages from 07860 030840, which I also used to get so perhaps there is a link between the 2 numbers.

I've never been an Optical Express customer either, in fact I don't wear glasses and haven't had an eye test since I left school...

EDIT 2: I'm now getting txt messages from Delta Force Paintball, again, never used them and never been paintballing!
