8 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were Sky. Told me I could get a refund but wanted me to confirm a few things. When they asked for my birthday, I just said no and hung up straight away.Sky8 yearsSome bloke called claiming to be from BT OpenReach, sounded Asian. He started off by asking how I was doing. I told him straight up I knew he was a scammer and to get lost. Weirdly, he just dropped the call right after that.BT OpenReach8 yearsAbout 10 past ten at night I picked up the phone, and all I could hear was two Asian voices chatting away like they were having a conversation with each other. They never said a word to me, so I just hung up.8 yearsGot a call from someone with a thick Indian accent, called himself George and claimed to be from Open Reach. I’m not a BT customer, but there’s an Open Reach box right outside my flat. He said they’d received a report about issues with my router. I cut him off and told him I needed some sort of ID to prove who he was, then he just ended the call. Went outside to check if anyone was actually working on the box - but no sign of anyone at all. Thought it was dodgy.George8 yearsIt was one of those calls where the automated voice just said "Goodbye" and then I hung up immediately. Blocked straight away.8 yearsMy wife got a call yesterday from a bloke who sounded Indian, said his name was Jack and claimed to be from OpenReach. He told her to switch on the laptop and get into Windows. Then he said he’d ring back the next morning. When I picked up at that time, the caller just cut off straight away. He kept calling a few times after that, till I told him he was taking the mick. Haven’t heard from him since. Definitely a dodgy scam, watch out!Jack8 yearsHad a call claiming to be from Open Reach, but the bloke spoke with a strong Indian accent.

Same story as what others have said.Open ReachBT8 yearsThe guy on the phone had a really thick Indian accent and I couldn’t make out what he was saying, so I just ended the call.

A phone call came through and she couldn’t really make out what the caller was saying, so she passed the phone to me. The woman on the other end said she was from Open Reach and mentioned there were issues with the router. I questioned why they were even calling since my aunt’s number is on the TPS list, and asked them to verify the contact info they had for the number. They couldn’t provide any details and just ended the call. Definitely sounded like a scam.Open ReachTelephone Preference Service8 yearsSome bloke with a funny accent called saying he could boost my internet speed.
