6 yearsGot a call from some muppet in Leicester, kept shouting that I had to pay an overdue gas bill or else. He said he knew where I lived but couldn’t even tell me my name properly. What a mess.Leicester6 yearsI reckon this number ought to be logged with Action Fraud through the police records.Action Fraud6 yearsGot a call at 11.40 at night from abroad, some bloke yelling loudly on the other end.9 years9919776546 - these lot just wouldn’t stop ringing. Normally, people hang up after one try but this one kept at it, got proper rude too. They started off claiming they were from Microsoft but when I told them I use Apple, they suddenly switched to being from Apple’s tech support. When I found it funny, they threatened to lock my computer unless I played along. They kept buzzing until I decided not to answer anymore.Apple Tech Support10 yearsGot a call from them at 7.40 this morning but as soon as I picked up, they just dropped the call. Pretty sure they've tried ringing me before too, but obviously didn’t get anything out of it!10 yearsCan’t say what that bloke was jabbering on about, some random Asian guy I think. Just gave up and ended the call.10 yearsI receive calls from this number, 0098306529, at least three times a day. However, whenever I answer, no one is on the other end of the line. Instead, there's an annoying static noise that lasts for about a minute before the call disconnects. This happens in the early morning, during the day, and even in the evening, which is incredibly frustrating. I don't understand why BT doesn't block these numbers. Perhaps it's because they would cost a lot of money to block and could be profitable for BT. It's disappointing that BT prioritizes profit over addressing the nuisance caused by their rogue customers. As a result, I have developed a strong dislike for BT and try to avoid using their services whenever possible. Their disregard for moral and social responsibility is truly disgraceful.BT10 yearsJust got a call from someone claiming to be a BT agent, but it was all a load of rubbish. They were trying to get me to give them access to my internet - total scam, without a doubt. Beware of these fraudsters!BT10 yearsI’ve just got a call from this same number for the third time now. The person on the other end called me a liar, started swearing, and then just hung up. This needs to be sorted out, it’s getting ridiculous.10 yearsSomebody with an Asian accent called me, saying they worked for BT’s tech team and claimed there was an issue with my internet. They wanted me to give them access. I just told them to buzz off and ended up saying "P--- Off" before hanging up on them.BT Technical Department10 yearsSo this number called me today claiming to be from BEETEE, and they were using my internet data or something. I just listened in for a bit and then ended the call.BEETEE10 yearsI figured I’d mess around with them a bit and asked what exactly they wanted me to do with this 'unsecured' broadband issue. The woman on the line didn’t seem to speak much English and just kept going over the same thing again and again.10 yearsAs pensioners, we receive numerous calls throughout the day from a particular number. They claim to be from BT and report faults related to broadband or computers. On some occasions, we are greeted with a robotic goodbye, while an Asian voice is consistently present on the other end of the line.BT10 yearsPicked up then quickly ended the call.10 yearsHad a call from an Asian woman claiming to be from BT, warning me that hackers were trying to access my computer. When I asked her some questions, she just started laughing! I seriously doubt BT would be that unprofessional. I’d actually looked this scam up a while ago and recognised it immediately. They try to get you to install some dodgy software to “fix” problems, but it really gives them control over your laptop. On top of that, they’ve rung me more than 15 times today - proper harassment! Honestly, just hang up if you get a call like this.BT10 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be BT support saying there was a hacking incident and they needed to guide me through fixing stuff on my computer. The call came from 001 991 977 6543. Seems like others have reported this number trying the same trick to nab personal info.10 yearsGot a ring from this number saying my BT contract was about to be ended. I told them I ain’t even a BT customer and they just hung up on me. Proper t####s.BT10 yearsJust told ’em to text me instead and guess what, he ended the call right away. Total scam! Ha ha!10 yearsThe BT broadband department contacted me honestly and informed me about the security vulnerability of my internet, stating that they planned to disconnect it tomorrow. However, I interrupted the conversation pretending to be in a state of panic and insisted that they cut it off immediately due to my concerns. In response, the caller promptly ended the call.BT10 yearsI received a call from the same number, claiming that my internet connection had been compromised by someone in Nigeria. They asked me to be present at my computer so they could assist me in changing and enhancing security measures. They said that there was a security breach reported at BT. However, when I contacted BT, they informed me that they had no knowledge of such a situation and advised me to disregard it. It's important to remain vigilant!NigeriaBT10 yearsThis morning, a woman called and said the same thing before abruptly ending the call.10 yearsI've been receiving numerous calls from a particular number. Today, I had a conversation with a lady who informed me about scammers attempting to hack my computer. I sarcastically asked her if she needed my IP address or bank account details for their activities. Surprisingly, she quickly ended the call.10 yearsThe moment I answered, the call ended immediately.10 yearsLoads of dodgy calls from overseas. I ended up blocking every international number cause I kept getting calls from different ones. Yesterday it was someone pretending to be from the Windows tech team, and then today it switched to someone claiming to be BT's tech support. Really annoying.BT Technical Services10 yearsGot a phone call earlier claiming to be from BT, saying my internet would be cut off at 3pm because there was some hacking attempt. The guy kept saying I wasn’t getting what he was saying, then just dropped the call. I called BT directly afterwards and they told me it wasn’t them and no hacking had happened. Now just waiting for another call so I can have a proper go at them!BT10 yearsOnce again, this particular individual continues to persist. They claim to represent BT and assert that there is an issue with my internet. My advice? Disregard their claims.BT10 yearsGot a call from some sweaty bloke with an Arab accent pretending to be from BT, asking for my bank info. Told him to jog on straight away.BT10 yearsGot a call that was clearly a dodgy attempt to get into my bank details. When they rang, I just hung up and told them to jog on. Honestly, total scam artists! Watch out everyone, don’t fall for it! You’ve been given the heads up!10 yearsHad some poor bloke stuck listening to me belt out the Teddy Bear's Picnic again.Teddy Bear10 years"Hello sir, you call Breetish Telecom." Honestly, why can't they get someone who actually speaks proper English?British Telecom10 yearsGot six calls from someone claiming to be BT today. They were really rude and started swearing when I didn’t answer their questions properly. At one point, the caller even said they just needed my bank details!BT10 yearsJust got a call, didn't pick up but used 1471 to see the number, then looked it up on this site!10 yearsThe voicemail answered and this person said they were with BT, wanting to test our broadband. They kept saying "hello ma'am" to the answering machine, which was quite daft. I ended up having a good chuckle about it!BT10 yearsI got a call supposedly from BT internet. I kept asking them to repeat because I couldn’t hear properly, then suddenly they just hung up on me. So I dialled 1471 to find out the number, then came here to check it out!BT10 yearsIt's incredibly frustrating to keep receiving silent calls over and over again, especially when they end with a recorded message saying "goodbye".10 yearsThis morning, I received a phone call from someone named John, who dialed using an Iranian number. He claimed to be from BT and requested remote access to my computer. However, upon denying his request, he became aggressive, making threats to disconnect my internet services. I have promptly reported this incident to both BT and the police.JohnBT10 yearsIf you see the number starting with 00983, dont bother with it, it’s from Puerto Rico. Just skip it.Puerto RicoBest10 yearsI keep receiving silent calls! It's quite frustrating, especially when after just five seconds, a pre-recorded voice says "Goodbye!" before abruptly ending the call. This situation occurs quite often, and I can't help but wonder what could be the reason behind it. Moreover, it baffles me why the authorities aren't taking action to block such calls.10 yearsGot a call this morning at 8:23 am from 0098306529. A lady with an Asian accent said she was from BT, but I told her BT never ring up customers like that.BT10 yearsGot a couple of calls like these earlier, but thankfully I didn't fall for their stories.10 yearsAbsolutely a total scammer!Fraudster10 yearsDon't worry about 0098306529, it's a legit number owned by BT!

Rest10 yearsGot a call earlier today from this number - I checked it with 1471. The person said they were from BT Broadband, warning that someone was trying to hack my computer. But the moment I asked them to tell me my IP address, they just ended the call.BT Broadband10 yearsGot a call from someone who spoke with a strange accent, saying they were from BT and that there was an issue with my broadband. When I asked for proof they were really from BT, they just said yes. After I probed a bit more, they just cut me off. Definitely felt like a scam. It really worries me how older folks or those less tech-savvy could get caught out by these dodgy calls.BT10 yearsSo this number 0098306529 rang me but nobody picked up on their end, then they just hung up.

I never called it, but a quick search on the official BT site showed no record of them reaching out to me.

Pretty dodgy, if you ask me.BT10 yearsGot a call from this number at 8 in the morning today (14th Nov). When I answered, no one spoke. Pretty sure it was a scam.10 yearsToday, an attempt was made by a certain number to contact us.
