Call from 01490590158. Claiming to be from o2 about a reduction in my bill. They sent an email which looked genuine asking me to confirm my identity. I asked how do I know you are from o2 at which point the caller got cross and said I just told you!

Looking for a safer home phone?

Traditional landlines were never designed to stop scam callers. New digital landline services use advanced tools such as:

  • Automatic scam number blocking
  • Suspicious call alerts
  • Call recording for safety
  • Trusted person monitoring

Phonely's digital landline was built specifically to protect vulnerable people from nuisance and scam calls. See how Phonely protects your home phone or compare the best digital landline UK.
