Expertadvies
Ever wondered why that +44 800 number keeps ringing your phone? The pattern in these reports points to a spoofed Virgin Media sales line that’s using a toll‑free prefix to sound official. Callers typically push upgrades, ask for personal details, and switch to aggressive scripts when you push back. Never share account numbers, addresses, or banking info with an unsolicited caller, even if they claim to know your name. Use your phone’s built‑in block feature, report the number to your carrier, and consider a third‑party call‑blocking app. If you’re an existing Virgin Media customer, verify any offers directly through the official website or app before taking action.

Received a call at 6 PM from someone claiming to be from Virgin Media, offering a better deal for Media, Broadband, and Home Phone. I informed him we don’t use a home phone, to which he responded that was why he was calling. He requested my address for identity verification, which I refused, stating he should already have that information. He mentioned a partnership with O2, but I clarified I’m not with O2 and have no intention of switching mobile providers. I asked for the new deals via email, which he couldn’t provide. He claimed my prices would decrease if I switched, but I declined, and he wished me continued high prices before hanging up.

Following a lenghty conversation, I eventualy informed the caller that I dont actualy have a Sky account, despite their claims that I did.

The call rang three times before disconnecting itself. I find this to be the best method for handling unsolicited calls. I've been a Virgin Media customer for over ten years and have never received any positive news from their sales team.

They keep ringing our mobile and landline, presumably trying to sell us extra services. The caller is quite hard to understand. We usually inform them that we are not interested and hang up. Now, we plan to block the number. I question the authenticity of this Virgin call; it seems more likely to be a subcontractor attempting to sell extra services on behalf of Virgin.

08000529406 I keep receiving calls on my mobile from this number and its close variations. It’s becoming quite annoying.
Over the last 12 weeks, I've been bombarded with 57 calls from this Virgin number, all of which have been harassing and aggressive in nature.
Receiving calls twice daily claiming to be from Virgin - now blocking this number.
Multiple calls came through, but only silence, so I stopped answering. I’m with Virgin, so I’ll check with them to see what’s going on!
Yesterday, I picked up this number and was informed it was Virgin Media. Unfortunately, I struggled to understand the caller's accent. I mentioned that my mobile contract is currently with O2, so they shouldn’t be contacting me. Perhaps it was related to our landline, TV, and broadband package nearing its end, but they ought to have called our landline instead.
