9 yearsAnother damn scam call just now. I'm so over getting these annoying calls every single day!9 yearsI got a call from a woman with an Indian accent and loads of background chatter like from a call centre. She said she was from Ofcom telecom and already knew my name. I just ended the call straight away.Ofcom Telecom9 yearsThis woman with an Indian accent called, claiming her company could help me cut costs on my mobile and landline. I told her I wasn't interested and she just ended the call without saying a single thing. Proper rude.9 yearsWe got calls from this number practically non stop throughout the whole day, I lost count after about 30. I even tried whistling to see if it would stop them, but no luck!9 yearsGot a call from someone with an Asian accent who kept messing up what he was saying, even though you could hear someone else telling him what to say. He claimed he was from a telecom firm. I just ended the call straight away.9 yearsGot a call from a bloke claiming to be from BT Ofcom, and somehow he already had my name and where I live. He told me they’d cut my bill by £15.99 each month. Next thing, he wanted to know what my bill was and how I usually pay. I told him if he really worked for BT, he’d already have that info. Then he switched, saying he was with Openreach. I told him I wasn’t interested in carrying on, but he just kept pushing. In the end, I had to just end the call.BT OfcomBTOpen Reach9 yearsI got a call from someone with an Asian accent who said they were Michael from Upton. He sounded like he was stumbling over his words, mumbled a bit, then just cut the call off.MichaelUpton9 yearsAn individual of Asian descent claimed to be calling from BT, stating there was an issue with our internet service. My wife answered the phone and quipped, “I take it you’re going to instruct me to turn it on so you can sort it out?” He confirmed with a yes. In response, she told him to bugger off! He promptly ended the call.BT9 yearsAbout a week ago, I got a call from a woman with a thick Asian accent. She claimed to be calling from BT or Ofcom, but her message was a bit all over the place - something about a broadband fault or how their calls cost less than BT. I told her I wasn’t interested and she let out this slight sigh before quietly saying “Fine then.” Guess she wasn’t getting many takers! She called again today but I didn’t answer, hung up as soon as the voicemail picked up.BTOfcom9 yearsSo some guy called Michael, said he was from BT! I told him I wasn’t interested and just ended the call. There was loads of noise in the background, sounded like one of those call centres.Michael9 yearsBeware, it’s just another trick trying to get you to let them control your computer remotely.9 yearsGot a call from somewhere in the USA claiming there were issues with my BT internet. Since I hadn’t noticed any problems with my connection, I just ended the call straight away.United States9 yearsthis person kept ringing and I had to ask like three times who was on the phone. finally she said she was michelle from bt tech (her accent sounded asian). she said there were loads of errors with our internet and if we didn’t sort it out they’d block our connection. she wanted me to get on the computer. i told her i didn’t have one at home. then she asked if I had a laptop. i said no ’cause my husband had taken it to work. then she said she’d ring again later.MichelleBT9 yearsThey kept ringing back with all sorts of excuses, just trying to get us to chat before hanging up on us.9 yearsGot a call from some bloke claiming he was from BT and somehow knew my name (funny, I haven’t been with BT for ages, and they say they don't pass on details anyway). He goes on about a fault with my internet and says he needs to access it while on the line to fix it. I humoured him for a bit, probably gave off the impression I was hooked, then just told him to piss off.BT9 yearsI've been ignoring my calls recently, and this number popped up from the US, but they didn’t bother leaving any voicemail or message.States9 yearsI got a call from someone speaking with an Indian accent who claimed there was a problem with my broadband. They warned that my service would be cut off if I didn’t let them access my computer. I just ended the call right away.9 yearsChecked my call list and saw they’d rung me again. Had a look here and it turned out to be the usual rubbish. If I’d answered, there’s a good chance I’d have tried one of these: (1) Pretending to fetch someone and leaving them waiting, tying up their line ages. (2) Calling them out on their lack of honesty and telling them to get a proper job, like gardening or something, especially with their Indian accent, what a muppet. (3) Keeping them on the phone forever, making them think they’ve hacked my computer, wasting their time. (4) Saying they just disturbed my dad’s funeral. (5) Messing about mentioning their head, then telling them where to put it. (6) If I wasn’t feeling patient, just telling them to bugger off.9 yearsThey just went quiet when i picked up, and as soon as i said hello, they ended the call.9 yearsSo, I looked up the 942 area code on Wikipedia, and it says it’s connected to Ontario, specifically the Toronto metro area. They mentioned it’s been set aside as an extra code to cover the 416 region, but there’s no official timeline for when they’ll start using it.Greater Toronto AreaOntario9 yearsHe said something about cheap calls, so I asked him for his contact number just in case the call dropped. Out of nowhere, he just ended the call on me. Pretty sure it’s a scam, especially since the number isn’t even a real one in the North American Numbering system.9 yearsGot a call a little after midday, but when I answered, no one said anything. All I could make out was what sounded like busy office chatter in the background.9 yearsHad a call from someone claiming to be from BT, but he had a weird accent and my broadband isn’t even through BT. He started going on about issues with my line, but I cut him off straight away, told him he was talking rubbish and just hung up on him.BT9 yearsGot a call from a bloke foreign sounding, reckon he might be linked to some hacking gang or something.9 yearsGot a call just now from someone speaking with a foreign accent claiming to be from BT. She said there was an issue with my broadband that had been flagged on their system and that my connection was basically corrupted. I wasn’t convinced and told her so. Then she warned me that if I didn’t let her fix it, my broadband would get blacklisted and I’d lose internet access. I told her to do her worst and ended the call.BTSubmit Your Own Report (942759933)
