5 yearsI’ve got one of those call blocker things set up on my phone that makes callers leave a name if they’re not in my contacts. For like the past half a year, I keep getting 5 to 10 missed calls every day from numbers starting with +9165. It’s been a right pain, but I’ve been blocking them bit by bit as they keep coming. Such a hassle!5 yearsBeen getting constant calls from numbers starting with 009165, like 2 or 3 times every day for months now. I keep blocking them but it doesn’t stop. At first, I tried to get them to take me off their list, asked to speak to a manager, even told them I’d report them for nuisance calls, begged them to stop ringing - but nothing changes. I’ve also signed up with the Telephone Preference Service, but that doesn’t seem to have helped either.Telephone Preference Service5 yearsHad three calls with no sound today, then one more saying they were from the phone company and asking me to log on with them. When I challenged what they told me, they snapped back with "So, who's the engineer here - you or me?" Proper cheeky scammers, honestly!5 yearsI got about 10 calls today all beginning with 009165, but the digits after that kept changing every time. Is there no way to block these or something? It's so annoying!5 yearsSome bloke with an Indian accent called, said he was from OpenView or something like that.5 yearsScam from BT, definitely not real!5 yearsGot loads of calls from numbers starting with 009165 but the last few digits kept changing (most likely to dodge call blockers). Today alone, I reckon there were maybe 8 or 9 calls from different numbers all with that same start. We didn’t pick up any, but like someone else mentioned, two of those calls came in super early, like before 8 in the morning!5 yearsSo far today, I've had three calls come through from different numbers starting with 009165, but every time I pick up, the line just goes dead. It's pretty annoying!5 yearsFor weeks now, I've been receiving calls from numbers starting with 009165, popping up at all hours, day or night. Most times, nobody’s on the other end when I answer. Seems pretty obvious these are scam calls, but since the number changes every time, it's tricky trying to block them all.5 yearsI keep getting loads of calls on my landline every day, like 15 to 20, all from numbers starting with 009165. They say they're from BT about my internet, but I’m not even a BT customer!BT5 yearsLately I've been getting loads of calls on my landline, even though I'm signed up with the TPS. The callers say they're from BT Openreach, my supposed internet provider, but that's rubbish. The calls always come from different numbers starting 9165..., I've counted at least a dozen different ones so far. It's definitely some kind of scam, probably trying to get hold of your bank details if you fall for it. Honestly, I’m thinking of using a loud, annoying sound to put them off. It’s bad enough without getting two calls before 8am on a Sunday as well!Telephone Preference ServiceBT Openreach5 yearsFor the last few weeks, I’ve been getting nonstop calls from lots of different numbers all starting with 009165 and then some random eight digits. Sometimes me or my husband accidentally pick up, and after a long silence, a person with a heavy foreign accent comes on saying my internet will be cut off in the next day or so. I try saying stuff to stop them, but they just keep ringing. BT really ought to step in and block these scammers.BT5 yearsI got calls from these numbers, but nobody said a word, just silence: 00916587355719 called me at 8.11am on 21st Sept 2021, then 00916591893836 at 11.20am the same day. The quiet continued with 00916590486285 at 12.38pm on 22nd Sept, and again at 2.05pm the same day from 00916552025595. Later, 00916537372534 called, and a foreign-sounding voice said "this is OPEN REACH." I told them "go ahead," but they just cut the call instantly.5 yearsBeen getting calls nearly every day, sometimes 4 or 5 times in one day, for about six weeks now. It's really starting to get on my nerves.5 yearsSince 21/08/21, I've had about 11 calls coming through with numbers that begin 009165, and four of them came just on a single day. Most of the time, I let the phone go to voicemail but they never leave a message. Other times, I pick up and there's only silence before the call just ends. This morning I actually answered and the caller claimed to be from BT. I told them that it was a scam and not BT at all, then they quickly hung up on me.BT5 yearsGot called four times in just one day. Three of the calls were completely silent, and on the one where the lady was talking, I think she was speaking some Punjabi to someone else nearby, so I just ended the call. I don’t know anyone from India, so I’m sure it’s one of those annoying spam calls. The number they used was 00916519980074.India5 yearsI've gotten calls from some 14-digit number starting with 009165 like three times this week. The most recent one was early this morning (7th Sept) at about 7.45am. Didn't pick up but checked the number with 1471. It's honestly quite annoying.5 yearsi keep getting calls nearly every morning, often even before 8 o'clock. they all come from loads of different numbers starting with 009165. most times, the answerphone picks up and that's the end of it, but on the rare occasion i actually answer, there’s just silence on the other end. feels totally pointless and really annoying!5 yearsThis is the second time in just a couple of days I've had a call from a number starting with 009165. At first there was silence, then some faint whispering, and the caller asked how I was. I told her to get to the point since I doubt a stranger would genuinely care about my wellbeing, especially not knowing I’m 76! She then said, in a sort of scolding voice, that the call was about my internet connection, so I just hung up. Honestly, everyone seems to agree these calls are a right pain.5 yearsLately, I've been getting quite a few calls from numbers starting with +9165 or the 009165 area code. When I had a look online, it turns out this code is from India, which explains the strong Asian accent on the calls. If you’re annoyed by them, you might want to block that area code using your phone’s blocking feature.India5 yearsi got a few calls where they kept hanging up right away, but twice a lady with a strong asian accent rang me, trying some trick to get access to my computer. eventually i told her i knew exactly what was going on and it really annoyed her!5 yearsOn 24th August 2021 at about 8.30 in the morning I got a phone call from someone with an Easter accent - no idea if he was Indian or Pakistani. He said my name and asked how I was, claiming he was with Openreach. I just hung up straight away, didn’t trust it. I've left out part of the number since I don’t want it linked back to my computer.IndiaPakistanOpenreach5 yearsOver the last few days I’ve got three calls from weird 14-digit numbers, all beginin with 009165. I haven’t picked up or spoke to anyone yet, but these numbers look like they can’t be traced. All calls came to my landline. Very strange!5 yearsthey kept calling me and claimed it was some sort of scam. i tried to get them to say who my internet provider was, but as soon as i asked, they just ended the call right away. obviously, they had no clue. my advice? just ignore and hang up on them!5 yearsNo clue who kept ringing me but the person claimed to be from BT outreach. I wasn’t exactly polite and told them to get lost every time they called. Honestly, I was pretty rude to whoever it was. So far, these are the phone numbers: 00916578043800, 00916577162169, 00916580849399, 00916504707617, 00916549540301, 0091651490475700916575728378, and 00916514904138. My main worry is how on earth they got hold of my landline number? Does anyone know how I can block all calls from numbers starting with 009165 on my landline?BT5 yearsIn just three days I’ve had more than 15 calls from numbers starting with 009165. I only picked up one, but there was nothing on the line, so it’s clearly some kind of scam. There’s so many different endings to those numbers, it feels impossible to block them all individually. The phone companies really ought to block these at the source.5 yearsGot a call from 00916588866885 rang but no voice, no messages or anything. Didn’t hang on to find out though.5 yearsIn the past day, I've gotten about ten calls all from different numbers beginning with 001965. Sometimes no one speaks, and other times they pretend to be from Openreach, telling me my internet will be disconnected in a day because of some illegal stuff on my connection. Since I know it's a scam, I've wasted their time by talking nonsense until they hang up. You'd expect they would've removed my number by now, given how much time I've burnt for them!5 yearsI’ve had a few calls from numbers beginning with 009165, not this exact one tho. One time they even left a message warning me that my internet would be disconnected. Quite suspicious if you ask me.5 yearsBeen getting calls from what seems like the same scammers but using a bunch of different numbers, all starting with 009165. They say they're from Openreach and try to trick you into giving them remote access to your PC. It's a total scam, they want to sneak in some spyware and steal your banking info. Honestly, just ignore and hang up straight away on these lying crooks, don’t entertain them for a second.OpenreachSubmit Your Own Report (06599 450 257)
