9 yearsWARNING - Got a call from a guy, sounded like he had a thick South Asian accent, maybe from one of those Indian call centres. He said he was ringing from BT Openreach about some issues with my internet. When I told him my broadband was fine, he kept arguing, insisting 'we can see there are issues with your connection that you're not aware of.' I told him straight up I thought it was some kind of scam and he wasn’t really from Openreach. He kept trying to convince me, but I just cut him off, said 'no thanks', and ended the call.WARNINGBT OpenreachOpenreach9 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Indian accent saying she was from Openreach. She told me someone was apparently leeching off my internet via my router. I just went along with it to hear where they were heading with it, but when I asked for her name, she just ended the call. Pretty clear it was a scam, but I didn't really have the nerve to call them out straight away.9 yearsGot a call from someone named Robert, Indian accent, who said he was from BT Openreach. I quickly told him he was lying and to stop messing about, then told him to hang up. He tried to argue with me but I didn't entertain it.RobertBT Openreach9 yearsGot two calls in just half an hour, both from India I reckon. Each time I answered, the person said, "You think I'm a mug? You're not with BT, this is a scam," before hanging up on me. Pretty obvious dodgy stuff if you ask me.IndiaBT9 yearsIn just six hours, I got hit with four calls, all saying the same thing about checking my internet. They kept ringing from the number 001497843007, which makes me think they've got loads of different lines. Definitely blocking every one of them!9 yearsThis number has rung me a few times today claiming to be from BT. When I told them I wanted my number taken off their list since I suspected a scam, the person got really rude and kept saying "Are you having a laugh with me?". I'm planning to report this to the police soon but just wanted to warn others as well...BT9 yearsGot multiple calls from these muppets today, it's driving me nuts. Honestly, what’s the point of the TPS if it doesn’t block these rubbish calls from foreign countries? I’ve stopped being nice to them now. Fingers crossed they just bin my number!TPS9 yearsGot a call earlier from someone claiming to be with BT, said he was there to test my internet speed. Didn’t have a clue who I was or any of my details and asked me to give him all that info. I ended up chatting with him for ages, probably about three hours, just messing around to waste his time, like he was trying to do with me. Can’t stand these scam callers anymore...BT9 yearsAs soon as I caught on to what they were up to, the caller started shouting all sorts of insults at me.9 yearsThis morning I got a call from someone claiming to be from BT, saying they wanted to check my internet speed and look at my computer. When they then asked for my bank details, I said no, and they just hung up. I contacted BT afterwards and they said they had no idea about any of it.BT9 yearsIn just a few hours, I got three calls from numbers like 001497843007, 00124420345 and 0031696288523. They kept saying there was something 'DANGEROUS' wrong with my router. When I asked what exactly they meant, they tried to hand me over to another person, but I just hung up. Honestly, it's really frustrating - I work from home and can't afford to miss calls, but this is getting annoying!9 yearsWARNING - Got a call claiming to be from BT Openreach's Technical Dept, asking if I'd noticed any internet slowdown. Problem is, I'm not even with BT! They didn’t know my name, and when I asked for theirs (sounded like an Indian accent), they just hung up on me. Then they tried again from a different number, 01244 20345, pushing the same BT Openreach story. What a bunch of crooks!WARNINGBT OpenreachBTSubmit Your Own Report (497843007)
