Hi everyone, there have been reports on social media about the above number - it is said that the people who answer it end up paying @£80 for the call and it also steals ALL details off your phone - including bank details etc if you have them on your phone - it then goes on to say that some people have been advised that efforts have been made to access their bank accts. I have put this number in my phone under the name 'DO NOT ANSWER THIS NUMBER' - at least that way you stand a fighting chance!! I have brought this to O2's attention. Take care out there please.

It is a myth. There was another myth about a automated cold call asking people to press 9 and if they do that it will cost you £20 per minute.

They are all not true as incoming calls cannot be charged for.

Also regulations for premium rate services restrict call costs exceeding £2 per minute or per call and cannot last longer than 20 minutes if it is not per call. These calls are often double in price on mobiles,payphones and non-BT landlines and because of they high costs such networks and payphone operators usually bar access to numbers that cost too much including some or all 118 numbers.
