10 yearsJust got a call from someone saying they were from BT. The background sounded exactly like a proper call centre, even had a 'supervisor' come on when I seemed confused. They told me to log into my computer so they could check who was trying to break in. I wasn’t having it and ended the call. The accents were Indian, and the whole thing felt really legit. Proper sneaky.BT11 yearsI keep getting calls from Talk Talk but every time I block a number, they ring back from a new one after a couple of calls. It’s really frustrating. Now I just let the phone go to voicemail and don’t bother answering at all. So irritating!TalkTalk11 yearsI've been getting calls from this number daily, and on occasion, up to three times a day. It's becoming quite tiresome! Does anyone know how I might go about blocking this pesky number? I'm registered with the Telephone Preference Service, but I realise that if the calls are coming from overseas, it won't help me much. Unfortunately, my phone doesn't have a screen for identifying callers either. Any advice would be appreciated!Telephone Preference Service11 yearsSomebody rang me up pretending to be from TalkTalk, said there was an issue with my internet. I just told them to buzz off and put the phone down.TalkTalk11 yearsSomeone called claiming to be from TalkTalk and said my computer was infected with viruses. I just hung up on them straight away.TalkTalk11 yearsGot a call supposedly from TalkTalk saying my computer was infected with a virus. They've rung me about six times now, but I've just hung up each time. Turns out it's a scam, was even mentioned on Rip Off Britain this week.TalkTalkOffBritain11 yearsWatch out, fraudsters! Give them a good shout down the line!11 yearsthere was nothing but breathing when i answered, total silence. i’m just gonna turn on the answerphone now, if it’s really important they can leave a message. sick of all these scams.11 yearsI got a call from a woman who said she was with ‘Bluetooth Telecom’. Honestly, you'd think these scammers would at least train their folks better. It’s quite embarrassing really.Bluetooth Telecom11 yearsNot sure who’s been ringing, but they keep trying again and again. Also, since when do phone numbers have just six digits? Seems odd to me.11 yearsI received several calls earlier today around 1:15 PM from someone claiming to be from TalkTalk, insisting that my computer was experiencing issues. They warned me they would terminate my internet service due to these supposed faults. The number displayed after I dialled 1471 was a 6-digit one. What’s more alarming is they even knew my name! I informed them quite courteously that I do not entertain unsolicited calls and requested them not to contact me again.TalkTalk11 yearsI've been getting calls every single day post 10 in the morning, and all I hear is nothingness. Every time I try to communicate, it's just an eerie quiet on the other end.11 yearsGave us a ring earlier today, but hung up before we could answer. Not sure where the call came from.Submit Your Own Report ()
