01156940099 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01156940099 👆 is reported as a persistent scam operation impersonating BT Openreach, targeting UK landlines with claims of broadband issues. Callers, often with strong South Asian accents, pressure recipients to perform speed tests or grant remote access to their computers, aiming to steal personal or financial information. Many victims found the calls aggressive, confusing, and unprofessional, with callers disconnecting abruptly when challenged. The number frequently rings without leaving messages and has been widely blocked. Users advise against engaging, especially refusing any remote access requests, and recommending prompt reporting to authorities such as Action Fraud. The consensus strongly suggests these calls are fraudulent and intended to exploit unsuspecting individuals under the guise of resolving broadband problems.

6 yearsTotal scam, be careful!6 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be BT Openreach, said my PC was infected or something. Tried to ask them some stuff, but they just ended the call on me.BT Openreach6 yearsIn my opinion, if you believe this call about a broadband issue is legit, you’re likely setting yourself up to lose money. It’s a total scam.6 yearsI got a call on my landline from someone claiming to be with BT who wanted to test my broadband speed. It felt quite pushy since they insisted I do the speed test straight away. When I said no, they just ended the call right there.BT6 yearsThey claimed to be from BT Openreach, but it was a total con.BT6 yearsGot calls from BT Broadband scammers too, this time from 01156940099. Same old story, just another BT Broadband scam. Honestly, what use are the TPS and ICO if they don’t do anything? And don’t get me started on Action Fraud. Just last week, my phone was bombarded with Amazon scam calls from 07303 numbers. Even though I’m on the TPS and my number isn’t listed publicly, it makes no difference at all. Feels pointless really.BT BroadbandTelephone Preference ServiceTPSInformation Commissioner ' s OfficeICOAmazonEx Directory6 yearsGot a call from 02084547463 saying it was BT Broadband, another scam! These BT broadband fraud calls are everywhere. Seriously, what do the TPS or ICO actually do? And what about Action Fraud? Just last week, I was getting loads of calls from 07303 numbers pretending to be Amazon - all ex-directory and even though I'm on the TPS. Feels like it doesn’t even make a difference.BT BroadbandTPSICOAction FraudAmazon6 yearsHad calls from dodgy BT Broadband numbers, like 02084547463 - clearly scammers pretending to be from BT. Seriously, what’s TPS or ICO even doing about this? And don’t get me started on Action Fraud. Just last week I was getting bombarded by those fake Amazon numbers starting with 07303. They keep coming through, even though I’m on the TPS and their numbers aren’t even listed. Feels pointless at this point.BT BroadbandTPSICOAction FraudAmazon6 yearsI keep getting calls from this number but they never leave a message. Looks like one of those dodgy scams again, maybe like the ones pretending to be from HMRC or those car accident compensation calls. Definitely something fishy going on.HMRC6 yearsGot a call from this number but it wasn’t working or anything. A guy rang me, but when I answered he suddenly just ended the call. Not sure who it was.6 yearsGot a call from a bloke, then it just cut off, said the number's no longer working or something.6 yearsI got a call from 07378892666, the person said they were with BT Openreach and that there was a problem with my internet. They told me they could speed it up and fix the issues. I pretended to be interested for a bit but then an Asian woman started asking me to get my laptop out. I know openreach issues happen outside, not inside the house. Feels like the usual scam from India.BT OpenreachOpenreachIndia6 yearsgot a call and before I could say anything it just went dead silent and ended the call right away.6 yearsSome bloke with an Asian accent rang me and claimed his name was John, saying he worked for Openreach. I told him I didn’t think that was right since I’m with Openreach myself (which isn’t true). He quickly shot back with, "I’ve checked and you’re not on the Openreach list!" 100% a scam if you ask me.JohnOpenreach6 yearsGot the answerphone and the caller didn’t seem keen on it, they just ended the call straight away.6 yearsAt about 11 in the morning, a call came from 01156940099. I answered but no one spoke, so I thought it was some weird number and they ended the call straight away.6 yearsI got a call from 01156940099 saying they were from BT Openreach, that my internet had problems and they could speed it up. I pretended to be interested for a bit but then this lady with an accent insisted I sit by my laptop. I know Openreach problems happen outside your house, so this felt like a classic scam from India.BT OpenreachOpenreach6 yearsSomeone rang me saying they were from BT Openreach, but the bloke had a strong South Asian accent and kept saying his name was John Smith. Bit fishy if you ask me.BT OpenreachJohn Smith6 yearsGot a call from a number I didn't know, but they left no voicemail or anything. Definitely felt like a scam.6 yearsI got a call from this number, the person said there was a problem with my internet that had been going on for days, which was rubbish because it's been fine for at least two weeks. I told him I’m not with BT and then either they hung up or the line dropped, probably because there's some roadworks nearby messing with the connection. Pro tip: don't ever hand over your details. If they’re calling you, they should already know who they’re speaking to. Usually they just hang up when you ask them for proof of who they are, which is quite funny really!6 yearsMy phone buzzed with one long ring, then a short break, followed by another long ring - sounded more like some US style call rather than our usual UK “ring ring” type. When I picked up, there was nothing, no bot, no sound, just complete silence. Very odd!AmericaUK6 yearsGot a call from someone calling themselves John, claiming to be with BT Openreach, but the thick Asian accent was a bit off. I ended the call straight away.JohnBT Openreach6 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from BT Openreach, saying they needed to test my internet speeds because I wasn’t getting what I’d paid for. When I cheekily asked if they’d sort me out with a hefty refund on my next bill, they just ended the call on me 😅BT Openreach6 yearsTried calling 01156940099 but no one spoke when I answered. Quite odd!6 yearsThey keep ringing me up all the time, saying they're from BT Outreach, but their story about some problem with my computer made no sense at all. When I tried to ask them a few questions, they just hung up on me. They even claimed that streaming live shows was glitching, which was totally not true. Honestly, don’t let these lot anywhere near your computer!BT Outreach6 yearsThis caller was really pushy and impolite, saying they were from the BT broadband support team. Honestly, it felt like a total scam.BT6 yearsBeware of 01156940099, it's a dodgy number and probably unsafe to answer.6 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be BT about my slow internet. The guy had really bad English and sounded like he might be from somewhere in Asia. Pretty sure it was a scam.British Telecom6 yearsI saw the number but didn’t pick up cause it looked unfamiliar. After looking it up here, I’m relieved I ignored it.6 yearsUnknown number called me, but I didn't pick up. They didn't leave any voice message either.6 years01156940099 called my missus claiming to be with BT, sounded like he was probably Indian. She handed me the phone and I asked him how the weather was back in India. He said he wasn’t there, but somewhere in the UK. I told him my computer was tracking the call and it definitely wasn’t coming from the UK. He hung up right away after that. Total scam, dodgy!BTIndiaUK6 yearsI had a feeling it might be a scam so I just let it ring and didn’t pick up. Since they didn’t leave a voicemail, I looked the number up here to see if anything suspicious showed up.6 yearsSome woman called, said she was with BT Openreach and working out of 81 Newgate Street in London. She told me my broadband speed had dropped. I played along just to find out what was up. Then she handed me over to a bloke from the tech team, who admitted they were both based in Bangalore. He tried to get me to log into teamviewer[###], which is legit but would give him access to my PC if I let him. When I said, “This seems dodgy, I’ll be reporting this to Action Fraud,” he lost his temper, called me a rude name, and hung up. At least I managed to waste about 15 minutes of their time!BTNewgate StreetLondonBangaloreAction Fraud6 yearsSaid they were with BT Openreach when they called.6 yearsGot a call earlier today from someone claiming to be from BTOpenreach. He mentioned some weird stuff happening on my internet and asked loads of questions. When I told him I wasn’t with BT, he quickly said they work with other firms too. I told him I’d check with our local Openreach place, and he just hung up straight away. Felt a bit dodgy if you ask me.BTOpenreachBTOpenreach6 yearsGot a call from someone saying they could fix my slow internet if I logged on to my PC. I wasn’t having any of it and let the lady have a piece of my mind.6 yearsJust like loads of others here, I got a call from someone with a foreign accent saying they were from BT Openreach. They told me my router was sending them signs of internet issues, but when I asked, they couldn't tell me who my provider was. So I quickly hung up.BT Openreach6 yearsThe moment my voicemail picked up, the caller just cut off. I've gone ahead and blocked the number now.6 yearsI got a call from a guy with a South Asian accent saying he was from BT Openreach. He told me there was a report saying my internet speed was slow.

Then he asked if I had a laptop or PC to check the router speed. I said I didn’t have one, and he asked if I was sure I had none. When I said no, he just cut the call straight away! Feels like a scam to me, probably trying to get into people’s computers or something.BT Openreach6 yearsThis number is definitely run by scammers who really ought to be put behind bars. They use a classic trick where they prey on people’s ignorance about their tech setups and security, trying to sneak into your computer to nick personal info. Speaking as someone who’s worked in data systems and networks for years, my advice is just to hang up straight away and let the cops know about this number.6 yearsGot a call from someone claiming my router was showing slow upload and download speeds. They asked if I could let them get into my computer to fix it. Absolutely not, no way I was going to let that happen.6 yearsAt around 1.40pm today, my phone buzzed.
