8 yearsWhat a total plonker, just mucking about and wasting my time.8 yearsThis number has tried ringing me several times but thankfully my call blocker catches it every time. If you're getting lots of annoying cold calls like this, I'd honestly advise reporting them to the ICO (Information Commissioner's Office). They actually take action against these companies - one even got slapped with a £100k fine for making over 75,000 nuisance calls. It’s worth heading to the ICO’s site and lodging a complaint if you can.ICOInformation Commissioner ’ s Office8 yearsI'd say report it to Action Fraud straightaway. Often it’s folks pretending to be from Openreach or BT, warning you that your internet is in danger and then trying to get access to your PC. Be careful with that sort of call!Action FraudBTOpenreach8 yearsOn the 27th of August 2018, I got a call around 2:33 pm but when I picked up, there was just silence on the other end.8 yearsGot a call from this number again today, which isn't the first time they've bothered me. They claimed to be from BT, but I told them to stop calling me altogether.BT8 yearsI've received two calls from this number within just an hour today, both claiming to be from BT's tech support. Each time, it's been an Asian gentleman on the line. I've tried reporting this to BT before, but they don't seem bothered. This isn't the first time, mind you; I've had numerous calls over the last year from folks pretending to be from BT's technical team, and I must say, it's becoming quite infuriating!BT8 yearsGot three calls from them already today!8 yearsWhat a total w#nker!8 yearsThis is the second time this week I've had calls from this number and 01215516999. Some Indian/Asian sounding person kept saying there’s an issue with my BT broadband. Bit odd, since I’m actually with Zen. Ended up telling them both to buzz off.8 yearsHad a dodgy bloke ring me claiming to be from BT tech support, telling me my router was sending out loads of alerts. I asked what he planned to do about it, and he said he’d need to check with his manager. I just ended the call straight away. Don’t bother engaging with these types - just hang up. Tell them your router’s got firewall protection and you’ve got good internet security on all your gadgets.BT8 yearsI got a call from 01382-222378 about ten minutes ago and all I heard was silence when I answered. Looks like it might be from BT too, cause I've seen the same happen with their numbers before.BT8 yearsGot a call that was definitely a scam.8 yearsI've had this number call me five times over the past couple of days. One of the calls claimed to be from a computer repair service, while the others seemed to be about some sort of connection issue. Each time, the voice on the line sounded Asian.8 yearsThese people are so bloody rude! They kept ringing me non-stop. When I asked to speak to the manager, he basically told me he didn’t want to speak to me. I told him to take me off their list and stop calling, and he just said “thanks, we’ll keep calling you then” and slammed the phone down. Honestly, I’m fuming!8 yearsThey keep ringing and I just let it go to voicemail, really getting annoying now.8 yearsGot a call from someone with a Pakistani accent claiming to be from BT. Then he passed me on to a department head who also sounded Asian and suspicious. Pretty sure it was a scam so I just hung up.BT8 yearsToday we've been contacted at work by people named "Jason", "Jennifer", and "Jordan" all saying there's some sort of issue with our BT Broadband. When I questioned their story, all three of them just ended the call immediately. It's clearly a scam, and a pretty rubbish one too - honestly, who gets fooled by that nonsense nowadays?JenniferJordanJasonBT Broadband8 yearsAbsolute scumbags, these lot. They're out there fishing for bank details from folks who might not be able to spot the scam. If you’ve got a landline, make sure you register it with a call blocking service - BT offer a free one you can check online. Always be careful; never share any personal info over the phone, even if the caller claims they’re a relative. Trust seems to be long gone nowadays. Honestly, I wish these creeps would just disappear and suffer for what they do. If there’s a special place for them, good, if not, hopefully they just wither away somewhere terrible.BT8 yearsGot a call like that too, some girl with an Asian accent claiming to be from BT. She said my internet was under attack and kept asking for my computer info. Obviously, I don’t even use BT, so I knew it was fishy.BT8 yearsReceived a call with no one on the other end-definitely feels like a nuisance! 🧐 Seems like yet another spam attempt.8 yearsSomebody called me saying they're from BT Broadband, but I wasn’t convinced. So I just said, "Yeah, right," and ended the call. Happy to find out that was the right thing to do!BT BroadbandJennifer8 yearsGot a call from an Asian woman first, then later an Asian bloke rang me. I just told them to go off and multiply somewhere else. Honestly, I reckon they should just be cut off.8 yearsannoying ring - no one picked up once i answered8 yearsI've had this number ring me five times today, and each time it's been an Asian woman. Quite peculiar, isn't it?8 yearsGot a few calls today, all saying they were from BT tech support. When I asked what they wanted and mentioned my name wasn’t Tim, they just ended the call right away. I even told one bloke I work at BT and asked for his full name, and he just cut off. Definitely a scam!BTTim8 yearsGot four calls from this number today, but they just ended the call once I answered. Definitely putting this one on my block list.8 yearsI’m absolutely tired of this number ringing me five times today!8 yearsI got a call from an Asian lady followed by a man who kept saying they were from BT. They told me to sit at my computer so they could help fix my broadband, but I knew it was dodgy and told them it was a scam. They hung up, but they've called me six times already today.BT8 yearsHonestly, the way this person spoke was really bad English, and I’m pretty sure it wasn’t their first language. The caller from that 0121851 number kept saying stuff like, “I from what about the 0121851 number 2” or something that made no sense. I just got annoyed and ended the call straight away.8 yearsSomeone rang me saying they were from BT broadband. As soon as I mentioned we’re on the TPS, he just went off on one, calling it a scam and then told me to f*** off!BT BroadbandTelephone Preference Service8 yearsHad this number ring me again, but once I answered, there was just silence. Heard from others that it might be a scam pretending to be BT. Over the past few weeks, I've been getting so many calls like this. I try blocking them, yet they just keep coming through on new numbers. It's really annoying.BT8 yearsGot a call from someone saying my bt broadband was acting up. I told them to get lost, but they musta missed that because they phoned me 5 more times in like 4 minutes. Proper annoying.8 yearsGot a call from a lady with a heavy Asian accent saying she was from the BT tech team, checking on my internet. She never used my name and since my internet was working perfectly fine, I just ended the call. Pretty sure it was a scam.BT8 yearsLooks like it's the same scammers from 01215516999 pretending to be BT's technical support. Watch out, it's definitely a con.BTSubmit Your Own Report (0114 237 2481)
