Phone number ☎️ 002856219244 👆 is reported as a nuisance scam originating from offshore call centres, often with callers claiming to be from BT’s technical or internet department. Recipients are falsely warned about internet disconnection or hacking and pressured to grant computer access. The calls frequently come in bursts, featuring rude or abusive behaviour when challenged, and often display Indian subcontinent accents. Many confirm they are not genuine BT representatives, with some callers hanging up when questioned or unable to provide accurate details. Users advise ignoring calls from unknown or withheld numbers, using caller display, and not engaging with the callers as they are persistent and solely seeking access or personal information. This number is widely regarded as a scam and should not be trusted.

9 yearsGot a call from a very unfriendly lady with an Indian accent who said she was calling on behalf of BT, but it felt totally off.BT9 yearsSome bloke claiming to be from BT called me, I told him I'm not with BT. He got quite rude, saying BT owns every internet site, which is just rubbish. Number was 002856219244.BT9 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with BT's "Technical Department." They started with the typical stuff about my internet being hacked or used by scammers. I just passed them on to our IT team who weren't impressed and told them to sod off.Technical DepartmentBT9 yearsGot a call earlier from someone claiming to be from the BT tech team, telling me my internet was about to be disconnected. I hung up straight away. She rang again, and when my mate mentioned they sounded like scammers, the caller quickly ended the call. They even asked if they could get into our computers. Tried dialing the number back but it just wouldn’t connect.BT9 yearsI get these calls in bursts, like nothing for ages then suddenly loads in one day. Luckily, I’ve got caller ID and an answerphone, so if the number’s not familiar I just let it ring out unless they leave a message that’s worth responding to. When I answered before, the more I gave them tetchy comments, the more they kept calling back over and over that same day. Honestly, the best thing is to have caller ID and just block all private numbers as well.9 yearsGot a call from a lady with an accent, claimed she was calling from BT tech support about some issue with my internet.

They told me it could be fixed right then and there on the phone at no charge! I told them not to mess with my connection, but they just talked over me and ignored what I said, so I ended up hanging up. Since then, I’ve been getting nearly daily calls about my internet, always from people with Indian sub-continent accents, both men and women. It’s really annoying!BT9 yearsCalled early in the morning, just as I was about to deal with my garden waste.
