This number keeps calling saying they're from O2 with a discount offer. They sent texts with codes and insist on sharing security information—something's definitely off.

Said they were from O2 offering discount on my contract and sent 2 texts, one with a passcode, they hung up when I wouldn't share the security code as it said on the text do not share this code with anyone, even O2 staff so I refused, don't be fooled!

Pretending to be from O2, offering discounts. Total scam.

User reported 01257 82 5056 as Harassing

Claimed to be EE offering me up to 35% off my bill. Asked me what my previous bill was. When I asked them to prove they were EE they just constantly asked me how they can prove they are EE. They got themselves baffled and hung up.
