I've got caller ID, so I decided not to pick up since it was an unfamiliar number. This number has been ringing me repeatedly over the last few days, yet they haven’t bothered to leave a message on my voicemail!

Just like all the other ones, this was a BT Internet scam, nothing new.

This was definitely someone trying to scam me.

My landline has been getting calls from this same number four times today. I didn’t pick up any of them, but it’s really bugging my missus. Bloody phone scammers, I can’t stand ’em!

Got four calls today from someone saying they were with BT trying to fix my internet, but I reckon it's a scam.

Got a call from them about changing my IP address, but as soon as I picked up, they just hung up. This has happened around six times today alone. They really need to be put to an end.

I've been receiving these irritating phone calls from an unknown number lately. It's quite bothersome!

I've received seven calls from this number within just three hours! I'm familiar with every number of my contacts and acquaintances in the States, and this one doesn’t ring any bells. Just like I've mentioned before, I tend to ignore CALLS from UNKNOWN sources, particularly if they’re international.

They rang me twice within half an hour. Proper irritating, honestly.

This number has phoned me four times already today. The first three times I let it ring and didn’t say a word, they just ended the call. On the last one, I finally asked what they were after rather bluntly, and they immediately put the phone down!

I received two phone calls from this number within a span of just under two hours. I chose not to pick up since I have caller ID, and I typically avoid answering calls from numbers I don't recognise. Interestingly, they didn't bother to leave a voicemail either.

Got a robo call claiming to be from BT saying my internet would be disconnected if I didn’t press 1. Just blocked the number straight away.

Got a call from someone pretending to be HMRC saying there’s an arrest warrant out for me. They wanted me to call them back, but honestly, it feels like a dodgy scam. Best advice? Don’t bother ringing them back at all.

Called way too early and no answer at all! Just blocked the number now. Cheers for the heads up!

Left a message asking for information, but never got any reply back.

Not sure who it was, but it was a blocked number.

Supposedly an automated call from BT, or so it seemed.

Got a call but no voicemail or anything. Missed it, and nothing was said.

Got called by someone with an Indian accent claiming to be from BT Engineering. Didn't bother listening and just hung up straight away.

Got a ring from this number but let Call Minder pick it up. Next thing, another call from 0001162886791, and once again Call Minder sorted it. Obviously a scam, just the original number with 00 and then three zeros added at the front! What muppets! Seems like they’re trying to dodge Call Minder’s blocks!

No voicemail left yet, just the call minder working as usual!

I just got a call from someone saying they were from BT about my internet getting cut off. Totally a scam, don’t fall for it! They asked for personal info, which was a dead giveaway. Stay safe, everyone!

Some bloke with an Indian accent claimed he was ringing from BT. When I kept pressing him on how he got my phone number, he just kept blabbering about being with BT and needing to call all their customers. Problem is, I'm not with BT at all. Then out of nowhere, he said he could VISUALLY see me. That freaked me out big time. I asked him straight up, “How are you seeing me? Do you have a camera here?” He kept insisting he could see me. I dunno if he’s still listening or hearing anyone else, but I let out a loud police whistle down the phone. That should’ve shocked him off!

Got a robo-call warning me that my internet was about to crash or something, sounded proper dodgy. Totally ignore it, it’s a scam for sure. Don’t fall for that rubbish!

Got two calls earlier today but decided not to answer.

Had three calls already this morning from these clowns, now pretending to use fake US numbers. I’ve flagged them up with Ofcom and the ICO, and they recommended also reporting to www.actionfraud.police.uk. Turns out Ofcom know about this lot too, and they’ve even begun pretending to be from Ofcom themselves!

In the past hour, I got three calls, two of which showed up as withheld numbers. Seems like another BT scam to me.

They're claiming it's about internet stuff and keep bothering my gran like 3 to 5 times daily. It's really getting on her nerves.

Got a call earlier but no voicemail or anything left behind.

Called me three times this morning, picked up each time but couldn’t hear anyone on the other end.

This number keeps ringing me, but as soon as I pick up, they hang up straight away! I've had enough of these persistent calls and have now blocked the number. It's really annoying.
