01792350023


Anyone had calls from these number

Googled it earlier and apparently it's some dodgy company called Communique. They try and transfer your number to another network without your say so.

Noble, any idea?

the deal, anyone ( mobile company can sell you an upgrade on a contract )

some places like the one mentioned try it on, basically they have bought mailing lists of you mobile no.s or even just autodailed ( illegal )

when you answer they normally ask if your on a contract, they have no idea, when you answer pay as you go, they just hang up and try the next number.

if your on a contract they will ask what network, and can tell pretty much how long left, and try and sell you an upgrade.

time wasting cunts

Also to add to the above, some of these 3rd party companys will upgarde you anyway and lock you into another 12 month contact, even tho your current contract has not ran out.

i used to get customer caling in saying they had not ordered a phone or a new contact !

I used to have to deal with these idiots when i worked at Orange, as i was in Dealer call que, they are ignorant twats.

Had a call about fortnight ago....Wanted me to upgrade (Have 12 months left on contract)....

I called their bluff and asked for an upgrade to be deleivered to my home address. Thought it was very wierd when they asked for my address......and i said...Well you should have it shouldn't you......

Women on the other end was like errrrrr........errrrrrrrrrr.........

I laughed, n she hung up.
