10 yearsSo yeah, my computer's acting up and when I said I didn’t have a problem, it basically called me a liar. Thing is, I really don’t have any issues with it, which makes it all the more annoying. Proper frustrating!10 yearsGot a call from someone with an Indian or Pakistani accent, saying they're from BT. They told me my computer was having problems. I kept going with it until they wanted me to enter some dodgy info into my laptop, then I nicely said I was going to disconnect. The number started with 001, which I reckon is a US code, so no chance it’s really BT if they’re calling from the States!StatesBT10 yearsI got called by these lot five times today, only on the fifth did I answer. There was loads of noise in the background and they kept saying they were from BT, warning me about some odd activity on my internet account, saying they wanted to help stop hackers from getting in. I didn’t go along with the first bloke, and then he passed me to his “manager” who tried the same trick, getting me to do stuff on my computer. But when I told them it wasn’t a personal device, it was a work laptop, they just hung up on me.BT10 yearsSome dodgy callers from India pretending to work for BT ring up and say your computer has a virus. They want you to download some sketchy software that actually lets them infect your PC. Afterwards, they try to charge you £300 to sort it out. If you’ve got a bit of free time, it’s worth stringing them along for a while. I reckoned I wasted about half an hour of their time before I hung up. If you just quit straight away, they’ll just move on and target someone else.BT10 yearsThere was loads of background noise when I picked up the answerphone.10 yearsThe voicemail was full of that annoying call centre chatter in the background.10 yearsGot a call from some bloke pretending to be BT, saying there’s an urgent problem with my computer. How many bloody times do these scammers think I’ll fall for this rubbish? They just won’t stop!BT10 yearsI had a similar experience with that chap. I called him out on his deceitful ways, and he promptly hung up! Clearly a notorious scammer!10 yearsWe received a bothersome call earlier today as well, regarding our computer. Absolutely ridiculous!10 yearsI recently received a call from this number, and I must say it was quite exasperating and a real waste of time, given that it turned out to be yet another bothersome nuisance call.11 yearsI recently received a call claiming my internet was running slowly, and the callers identified themselves as representatives from BT. After chatting with the actual BT customer service, it turned out to be a scam. BT is now looking into the matter.BTSubmit Your Own Report (802201645)
