Claimed to be from O2 and to be able to reduce my bill. VERY poor english, I could barely understand him. He sent me a 'code' and kept saying to confirm that it was in my inbox.... I hung up after that

Claiming to lower bills
I've had calls from this number on three consecutive days, but have missed them all as I don't have my mobile with me for much of the time. Near Salisbury
Some Asian guy called and claimed that they were from o2. Seemed genuine apart from the spam warning that came up by the phone number. He asked me if I was happy with dmy service from o2, so I told him that I was not, and that since my dog ate my penis life has been very hard but not in any good way. He kept his composure and Offered to give me a discount if I can tell them the 6 digit number on the second text message. So I gave him the number 69 69 69 and he replied that it was not the correct number. I explained that due to my chronic laxative abuse I struggled to read codes and will have another go, and gave the code 96 96 96. He again said the code didn't work and to try again. So i told him that I was dyslexic and had difficulty with numbers, and may have to have many more attempts at giving the code before I get it right. Then said I have a bathroom emergency to attend to and hung up. The guy rang me back and was hung up on then blocked. He is committed and seems genuine apart from being an absolute tosser. SCAMMER BEWARE!
Got a text from my sim provider saying I’d requested a 1 time code, instantly got a call off this number, didn’t answer, guessing they’re trying to get into my account..
Polite lady said she was “Calling from O2” so I hung up as I’m not an O2 customer.
Was he Indian? The tolerance of the government to these companies is extremely frustrating. And I mean THEIR government. Of course, they bring money into their country.
Called me two times because my hanging off the first time was not enough. Both Indians with hard accents and very rude behaviour. The first time, because of his accents I couldn't understand what he was telling me(about where he is calling me from) and I told him that I dont understand. He got angry and a bit rude, so I hanged off. The second time was an Indian lady again with very strong accent, which I imideately hang off. It's not very frustrating that they are calling me in the first place but having that attidute as well, us fucking stu*I'd.
Called and spoke very quickly in poor English. Claimed his name was Ben and he was calling from EE. Immediately put the phone down as this is the third call I’ve received this week
Called to say they were from O2. Definitely a scam. Block
Indian guy, poor english, said he was Mike from O2. I didnt speak at all. I just listened and could hear several others in the background saying, 'hi I'm Mike from O2'. Total scammers.
Rang saying they were from O2 - a scam!! Quite scary considering this is a new number for me and I don’t even know how they got ahold of it.
Called, but too much noise in background, so couldn't have any fun with them..
Called to say they were from O2, my network provider. Indian voice. I said ' No your'e not' and they immediately rang off. Be aware.
Suspicious that I have received 2 calls on the day I switched to O2. The subject was generic and asked me to disable further calls by dialling 901 press * and then option 5 and option 5
