800-827-1000 — Caller information and user comments

800-827-1000 is a valid number for Veterans Administration ebenefits online disability applications. BUT, scammers can make any number appear on your caller ID and a call from that number probably isn't from the VA. (They don't usually call people, they have people call them.) So, calling that number is safe, but I wouldn't trust anyone who calls you from that number.

Just got called at this number by "Greg," who left a voicemail for me to call him back to give him my bank account information in the event that I am awarded a pension by the office of Veterans Affairs.

Yesterday I said unknown but today 12/11/2020 I know it is the VA about my widow benefits.

15 calls in one day from this number as reported by my call blocker app. The number when searched reportedly belongs to VA veterens administration . Since I am not a vet and 15 calls is far beyond excessive, I will keep this number blocked.

I don't answer unknown phone numbers. If there is a message I might listen to it. No message was received from this number.

Got a call from this phone number today in the morning 11/17/2020 , they left no message. It is risky to answer any unknown calls. In a lot of cases they get paid for every pick up call even though they don't get to fleece you. If it's anybody important or that you know they will leave a message on voice mail.

Received it today. Truecaller app identified as top spammer, even though listed as Va Veterans affairs.

called my work number.

...low level pieces of garbage. Take money from my hand, cowards. Your mother should have swallowed you “Paul” This is the voicemail they recorded 9/30/2020@1400. “_⁠_⁠_ benefits hi this is Paul _⁠_⁠_⁠_⁠_⁠_⁠_⁠_ I just secretary for benefits of the VA at 1-800-827-1000 I'm sorry I missed you I just wanted to touch base and let you know we are open in continuing to serve veterans during the coronavirus outbreak while we made adjustments to protect the health of our staff and the veterans we serve we are working daily to make sure you have access to the resources you need and we can do anything to help please call us at 1-800-827-1000 you can also visit our website at the va.gov thank you for all you've done to serve our nation I hope to talk with you soon…”

Called me. 4:21pm Friday. Nobody on the line. Looked it up and although it appears to be va, they've never called before.

Follow-up to last post. A voice mail was left regarding the VA and Corona. I go by rule of thumb, IRS does not call you out of clear blue and I don't believe VA does either. I would have to see it in writing.

Just called from this number, @4:05on Central. Did not answer as I did not recognize the number. Entered it in Call Blocker App.

Does anybody else getting calls from this number? It called me just few minutes ago 7/2/2020. I didn't answer because I didnt hear it and now I think it is not good idea to call back.

Called me twice in one day, when I answered each time no one was said anything. Waste of my time. They called from the 8008271000 . Today 3/12/2020 early in the morning
