9 yearsGot a call from someone called "John William" telling me our internet was about to be disconnected because of some issue. When I asked for a contact number, they gave a London phone number. Pretty obvious it was a scam to me.John WilliamLondon9 yearsUtter scam, no doubt. Some bloke with an Indian accent called claiming to be from BT’s tech support. He said they’d put some file on my computer and needed me to open it while he talked me through it. When I mentioned BT doesn’t operate in Australia, he just cut the call. Pretty clear they were trying to take control of my machine.BTAustralia9 yearsHad a call from some bloke with an Indian accent, saying he was Peter from BT. Reckoned since I’ve had my phone number ages, he could knock a third off my bill. I called him out straight away for being a scammer phoning from overseas and then he just ended the call.PeterBritish Telecom9 yearsGot a call from some woman who said she was from BT tech support, warned me my internet would be disconnected within an hour but didn’t really explain why. I just told her to go ahead. A few days ago, a guy tried the same trick, claiming he was from BT, but I wasn’t having any of it and hung up straight away. Fingers crossed they’ll stop bothering me soon.BT Technical Support9 yearsDefinitely a scam, I'd avoid it at all costs.9 yearsThis number has rung me quite a few times, but I never picked up since I didn’t recognise it. After reading the comments here, I’ll just keep ignoring it, thanks for the heads up!9 yearsGot a call telling me my IP address was messed up and if I didn’t sort out a new direct debit, my phone would be disconnected today. I told them I’d ring back myself and they actually gave me the number lol. I just ended the call after that.9 yearsI’ve been informed that unless I arrange for a new direct debit to be established, my phone line is at risk of being disconnected.9 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from BT’s Tech support, called himself Peter Wilson. He told me my broadband was linked to some cyber crime activity and said they’d cut off my internet today if I didn’t act. Didn’t really say what I was supposed to do to fix it. I told him I’d ring BT myself to confirm, and he even offered to give me the BT number to check him out. Seemed fishy to me.BT Technical DepartmentPeter WilsonBT9 yearsHonestly, this looks like one of those dodgy scams, and a pretty rubbish one at that. Best to avoid it completely, could be risky.9 yearsHonestly, this feels like a dodgy scam, and not even a clever one at that. Best to avoid it, could be risky.9 yearsPicked up the phone a couple of times over the last two days and there's been nothing but silence on the other end.9 yearsGot a call from 00612182547879, same deal as before. Pretty sure it's a scam, so watch out.9 yearsReceived a call from BT, instructing that they’ll be cutting off the line for the next three months due to a faulty connection. Quite frustrating, really!BT9 yearsI got a call from a lady with an Indian accent claiming she was from the BT tech support. I told her I don’t have a contract with BT and then ended the call straight away.BT9 yearsAh, the classic BT scam again. Can't say I'm surprised.BT9 yearsOn the 12th of December, 2018, I noticed this number had rung me but left no voicemail. Lately, I've been getting loads of calls like this, so I just went ahead and blocked it straight away.9 yearsHad a weird call from an Asian woman claiming she worked for the BT tech team but sounded nothing like they do. Loads of noise in the background too. I get calls like this almost every day, but this number was one I’d never seen before. Just a heads up, they usually want you to let them connect to your computer to ‘check for viruses’ - I wouldn’t trust them!BT9 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from BT. They went through that same spiel about problems with my internet connection, which I know often ends with them trying to get you to install some remote access software. The phone line was so bad, I told him maybe he should switch over to TalkTalk instead.BTTalkTalk9 yearsI got a call from a bloke who had an Indian accent, just kept saying "Hello" over and over. I could hear a woman replying to him in the background, but neither of them acknowledged me when I tried to join the conversation!India9 yearsNoticed no sound when I answered, and this is the second time they've done this in just a couple of days. Going to block the number now.9 yearsI got a call from 00612182547879 but when I answered, there was no one there. Felt a bit uneasy, thinking maybe they’d somehow hooked into my number and were running up big charges or summat.9 yearsGot a silent call on my landline, which is hardly ever used now since I mostly stick to my mobile. Strange thing to get!9 yearsThe individual on the line had an Asian accent and seemed quite unclear about the reason for the call, all while struggling to be heard over the din of a call centre in the background. Eventually, I had to ask them to leave me alone.9 yearsHad three calls already today from some Windows IT department. The last time, no one said anything, but a woman just said “bye” before hanging up. Quite odd.9 yearsAnother bloke with what sounded like an Indian accent called, saying he was Mark Parker from BT’s tech support. He told me they were about to disconnect my BT internet because of viruses. When I asked him to prove he was actually from BT or give me a proper BT customer service number, he couldn’t. He kept interrupting me the whole time and then claimed he’d already cut off my service. Quite suspicious if you ask me.Mark ParkerBT9 yearsGot a call from a bloke with what sounded like an Indian accent, said he was calling from BT about my internet. Thing is, I don't even have any deals with BT! Definitely a dodgy call. Told him to never ring me again!BTSubmit Your Own Report (2182547879)
