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.10 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 yearsThis number 0098306529 calls me at least three times a day, and there’s never an answer when I pick up. Instead, I just get this annoying buzzing noise for around a minute before it cuts off. It happens all times of the day - early morning, afternoon and even late evening - really gets on my nerves. I honestly don’t get why BT doesn’t just block these calls. But then again, I guess it’s all about the money for them, since maintaining these numbers must bring in a lot of cash. So expecting BT to act ethically or help out is pointless. They care more about profits than stopping the harassment their dodgy clients are causing to loads of people. It’s really awful. I try to avoid dealing with BT whenever I can, I just can’t stand them.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 yearsI'm retired, and this number calls me multiple times every day. They usually claim to be from BT about a fault or something to do with broadband or my computer. It’s always an Asian voice on the line, and sometimes the call ends with a robotic-sounding goodbye. Really annoying!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 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be BT broadband support... Honestly, I laughed! They said my internet wasn’t safe and they’d shut it down the next day. I didn’t even let them go on - acted all stressed and said they should cut it off immediately ‘cause I was super anxious about it. Then, surprise surprise, they just hung up on me.BT10 yearsGot a call from this number too, saying someone in Nigeria had hacked my internet. They wanted me to sit at my computer so they could fix and boost security or something. They claimed BT was spotting a security problem. I rang BT myself and they said they never heard anything about it and told me to just ignore the call. Watch out for this one!NigeriaBT10 yearsGot a call from a woman earlier today who said exactly the same thing, then she just ended the call.10 yearsGot a call from this number again today, and it was a woman on the line saying scammers were attempting to hack into my computer. I cheekily asked if she needed my bank info or IP address for "protection", but she just ended the call right away.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 yearsGot a call from this number again claiming to be BT and telling me my internet’s got an issue. Just a heads up, best to give them a wide berth.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 yearsI keep getting calls where no one talks, just silence and then this annoying recorded "goodbye" message. So irritating!10 yearsThis morning I got a call from someone claiming to be John, saying he was from BT and asking if he could get into my computer. When I said no, he started getting a bit menacing and told me he'd disconnect my internet. I've now reported the whole thing to 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 yearsGot a silent call today, just dead quiet for a bit then a recorded voice popped up saying "Goodbye!" and hung up. Seems to happen quite a lot recently. Seriously, what’s the point of these calls? And I’m baffled why no one’s stepped in to shut these down.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! Definitely not some dodgy scam. They actually helped me sort out my computer issues. Ignore the negative reviews, they're totally made up!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. It was really strange.10 yearsSo these guys called me earlier from this number, I found it using 1471. The person claimed to be from BT Broadband and said someone was trying to hack my PC. But when I asked them to tell me my IP address, they just hung up straight away.BT Broadband10 yearsGot a call from a guy claiming to be with BT, sounded Asian. I've been getting loads of these sort of calls lately.BT10 yearsReceived a call from a bloke speaking with a South Asian accent claiming to be from BT, warning me about hackers trying to break into my broadband. When I started asking questions, he handed me over to his 'boss'. After challenging the boss as well, he suggested I ring BT's support and ask for him, giving me a number: 0203 2872062. I never called it, but a quick search on the official BT site showed no record of them reaching out to me. I've heard spammers sometimes keep phone lines open so that if you call back, they can pick up and get your info. 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 yearsGot a ring from this number earlier, but thankfully we use a BT call blocker, so the phone didn’t actually ring at all! Brilliant system, really. It just shows you a list of blocked callers, so I checked and yep, another dodgy scammer tried calling. It feels great knowing these kinds of calls don’t even get through now!10 yearsGot a call on Monday 14th November from 0098306529. Lately, I’ve been getting loads of calls from various numbers, all claiming there’s an issue with my BT broadband. One call last Friday claimed to be from Microsoft and said their office was in Reading, Berks. I rang BT to check and they confirmed they haven’t contacted me in over three months. It’s definitely a scam, don’t go near downloading any software they offer!BTMicrosoftReadingBerkshire10 yearsFor the last week, my UK home phone has been getting calls over and over from this number. I've just left them unanswered every time.UK10 yearsThis number looks dodgy. No sound when I answered, so better to just ignore it!10 yearsthis afternoon they've rang me about 4 times but hang up straight away when I answer (how polite!). then when I try calling them back to show them how rude that is, all I get are messages like “sorry, nobody’s there” or “the number you have called isn't valid, please end the call.” what's the point of ringing if they don’t actually want a chat?10 yearsSome bloke said he was from TalkTalk, so I just told him to shut up with the rubbish and ended the call.TalkTalk10 yearsI got a call from this number, so I checked it out here, and now I’ve blocked it.10 yearsIt's mad that BT just lets this go on.

What kind of protection do they have for that?BT10 yearsThis woman claimed to be from BT's tech support, but when I asked her who the chairman of BT was, she just abruptly ended the call.
