Been getting a few calls from this number over the last month, got fed up and answered, all I got was a robot voice saying 'goodbye' before the call disconnected. Was pretty creepy and in general didn't appreciate all the attempts. From what I've heard these guys are scam artists who atleast have access to vodaphone customer's information, though I'm on orange, not the only one on this network to recieve a call from this number, so they most likely have access to their customer database aswell.

Only just reactivated my faithful old w995i, it's been on 5minutes and this numbers tried to call me. I didn't answer as everyone on my contacts list knows I use a different number, it's not the first time they've called but I'm on Orange not Vodafone??

They keep calling & I ignore them - let them waste their time. If I did choose to answer I would be abusive without hesitation & hang up.

Another site gives 01612778190 as a contact from Orange mobile phones. The 8191 may be from Vodafone as I am with them but where did they get my number from? I suspect Vodafone when I bought a new phone.

I don't usually answer unknown numbers but did this time since a friend from abroad had just arrived in the UK.It was a silent call until an electronic voiuce said 'Goodbye'. Obviously a spam/scam call.

very weird to get this call ( even if it was missed) seems to be a scam to get any Vodafone customer to go to car phone warehouse because they only call people who use Vodafone but their website says they are on good terms with the Car phone warehouse

Calls my mobile every other day, but I never answer it and, never would. These are just scammers or other forms of con artists'. I never answer random unknown numbers, and nor should anybody else.

Do not trust at all. This appears to be a mixed up company working with mixed up set of orders from different people. It becomes a joke to them, an affordable hobby.
