8 yearsI told this lady from India that my phone bill was already settled, and then she just disconnected on me. Weird experience.8 yearsGot a call from an Asian lady trying to sell me a 25% discount on my BT bill. I hung up straight away once she began asking for my bank direct debit info. Wouldn't trust it!8 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were BT trying to give me a discount on my phone bill. I just ended the call right away and blocked the number after.BT8 yearsSo, I got a call from someone claiming to be BT, speaking with an Indian accent. When I tried to ask questions to check if they were genuine, he just wouldn’t respond properly. Felt really dodgy to me.8 yearsMy phone buzzed a couple times but cut off before I could answer.

She asked for my payment details, but she didn't give much info about the offer. I didn't give anything away and said I'd inform BT about the call. She just told me to do it, didn’t seem bothered at all. Her English was really poor, hard to understand.

I just said BT would contact me properly if that was true and ended the call.BT8 yearsMy call blocker stopped this number from ringing on my phone, but when I looked it up on google, it showed as a newsagent on Welford Road in Leicester. I have no clue why they'd be calling me considering I live miles away. With all the comments saying similar things, I’m guessing these are just scammers using a real business phone number that’s been taken over.GoogleWelford RoadLeicester8 yearsSomebody rang saying they're from BT and said I could get a discount on my bill next month, but then they just went and disconnected.BTSubmit Your Own Report (0116 270 8216)
