Solved: Hundreds of voicemails

Anonymous · ‎19-06-2015

does anyone know why my phone is suddenly receiving hundreds of quite irate voicemails? No numbers are left. I've made no calls expect to O2 to try and understand why? Thoughts?

Dial 1760 (or 176002) to turn off your VM. That will stop it for sure.

Hi @Anonymous

What sort of phone do you have and how old is it...?

I thought these had gone away years ago, it could be that a "friend" is having what they believe is a joke on you, like this: http://www.prankdial.com/pranks/you-hit-my-car

Worth a try but they're not always willing to help.

The perfect solution!

Whoever calls will be in the phone logs then.

hi @Anonymous

Did O2 tell you just to go to the police , or did they also say they would report it to another department?

Without going into detail, are those calls threatening?
