Reports on phone number 01172052681
4 yearsGot a call from someone named David or James who said he was a joiner and had spoken to me years ago. He had a Northern English accent and mentioned Tesco would soon have some DIY bargains. Honestly, I reckon “who called me” really needs a new group for these poor sods who spend their time trying to make money by scamming people. Just my two cents...DavidJamesTesco4 yearsSomone somehow got into my phone and was able to change the special ringtones I had set for my boyfriend and family… We dont usually pick up the home phone unless we know who it is. Really strange. No one picked up on this end.4 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Indian accent saying there was odd activity on our broadband. When I mentioned I'd pass her to our IT bloke, she just hung up on me.BT4 yearsI had a call from someone saying they were from BT Openreach, supposedley about problems with my broadband. Bit funny really, cause my internet contract is with Virgin Media, so I wonder what they could even fix or do about it!BT OpenreachVirgin Media4 yearsSome bloke with an Indian accent rang me up, saying there were problems with my BT Openreach broadband recently. I told him we don’t use Openreach and called him out for trying to con me. He kept insisting it was real but I just ended the call.4 yearsSome lady claimed she was with Microsoft. I mentioned I don’t even own a computer, and she started shouting at me. Proper rude behaviour.Microsoft4 yearsGetting a call at half past seven in the morning with a recorded voice about my bank card being used really annoyed me. And can someone explain why it’s always about £600? Honestly, it’s such a frustrating way to start the day.4 yearsEndless ringing for what feels like an eternity, and all I ever hear is a monotonous "hello." It's utterly intrusive and needs to come to an immediate halt. The incessant nature of these calls is truly maddening.4 yearsReceived a call that felt like a total scam.4 yearsI just got a robo call saying there were some dodgy transactions on my card, including a £700 transfer. They told me to press 1 to sort it out but didn’t mention any card numbers or details. Sounded fishy to me.4 yearsGot a call from this number claiming to be from BT, saying there was an issue with our internet. I listened for a bit before telling them we hadn’t had any problems and that we’re actually with Virgin. Didn’t get as far as giving any personal info. After hanging up, I rang Virgin directly, and they said they never reach out to customers like that. Felt like a dodgy call to me.BTVirgin4 yearsGot a call from someone called Marshal claiming to be from BT about my broadband. I told him straight up I’m not a BT customer and could tell he was just trying to scam me. Ended the call right there. I’m on the phone preference service list, so I should be off their radar! I did report the call to BT using their scam page online, but honestly, not sure it’ll make much difference!BT4 yearsI suddenly started getting loads of spam calls, and this number was one of them. As soon as I picked up, they just ended the call straight away.4 yearsWas looking through my recent calls and saw this one, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked it using BT.BT4 yearsI got a call from the number 01208872655, and it was some scammer trying to get remote control of my PC. Pretty dodgy stuff.4 yearsI tried picking up but the call just dropped straight away.4 yearsGot a missed call just before ten this morning, around half past nine i think. This number pops up on my phone quite a bit, always as a missed call tho.4 yearsSomeone rang me saying they were from Open Reach about my internet, but I’m not convinced it was genuine.Open Reach4 yearsGetting a call at 9:04 on a Saturday really annoyed me, so I quickly brushed them off. I think calling someone that early on a weekend is just plain rude.4 yearsGot a call claiming to be from Microsoft about some problem with a computer I don't even have. They said it was from their main office. Since I actually work at Microsoft, I asked them for their ID number. They gave me one and told me I could look it up online lol.Microsoft4 yearsI answered the phone with a simple hello, but there was no reply - just strange background noise and some sort of computer beeps. It felt like one of those scam calls where they dial numbers at random. Since my number is signed up with the telephone preference service, I’m def going to report this.4 yearsI missed the call before I could pick up. From what I’ve seen in earlier comments, it seems like this is probably a dodgy scam and best to steer clear.4 yearsI missed the call and by the time I rang back, they had already hung up without leaving any message.4 yearsGot a call from this number with a woman saying she was from BT Broadband. Didn’t trust it at all, so I just ended the call straight away. Pretty sure it’s one of those scams.BT Broadband4 yearsSomeone said they were with Open Reach, the lot that handle broadband for different companies, but honestly the call felt like a waste of time. I didn’t share anything except saying I was doing alright today, and that seemed to be enough for them. Definitely felt sketchy, but what they wanted out of it I’ve no clue!Open Reach4 yearsGot another bunch of muppets on the phone trying to trick folks, honestly they deserve a serious good telling off to set an example.4 yearsWeird bloke called Oliver rang me up, saying it was about a BT account I supposedly have, which I don’t. When he asked how I was, I told him to do one, got right narked about trying to pull a fast one on me. He started shouting loads, proper rude.Oliver4 yearsGot a call claiming to be from BT Openreach about my internet connection. I mentioned I don’t use BT, then just hung up. Felt like a straight-up scam to me.BT OpenreachBT4 yearsI received a call from a foreign lady who just couldn't seem to pronounce Virgin Media properly. She insisted that my internet speeds were all wrong. I casually asked her what she expected me to do about it-did she want me to give her control of my computer? I was well aware it was a dodgy scheme and thought I'd have a bit of fun. In the end, she hung up on me! What gall! π€¦βοΈVirgin Media4 yearsGot a bloke ringing up, going on about some BT landline and account stuff, which was clearly rubbish. I let him carry on for a while then told him I don't have any account like that. He just hung up straight away, probably expecting me to just ignore him.4 yearsGot a call from a woman with a pretty thick Asian accent who said she was ringing from Virgin Media about some internet problems, like slow speed and potential outages soon. Thing is, my internet’s been fine, no slowdowns or anything. I told her if I noticed anything wrong I’d get in touch with them myself. After a bit of silence, I just hung up. Take a look at this number - sounds like yet another scam trying to trick people.Virgin Media4 yearsMy elderly mum, who just lost her husband last week, got a call from a woman with a strong accent. When mum mentioned her recent loss, the caller just ended the call straight away. It’s clearly a scam, but it’s really upsetting given everything that’s happened.4 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be with BT about my internet. The person sounded like they weren’t from here. I hung up straight away and I’m gonna block their number.4 yearsI've received alarming messages warning me that my BT service is about to be terminated, yet the irony is I don’t even have a BT account! It's quite baffling, to say the least.BT4 yearsGot a call supposedly from BT claiming there was an issue with our broadband and that our connection would be cut. They even got our street name right. Thing is, we dont have BT at all, so it was clearly a scam.BT4 yearsA bloke with a foreign accent called me saying my internet security was compromised and public now, not private anymore. He claimed to be from BT and wanted to send a link to my phone or tablet to sort it out. I told him I’m with EE and that I’d contact them myself. Definitely sounded like a scam.BTEE4 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from BT, but it was clearly a scam.BT4 yearsGot a call from someone with an Indian accent claiming to be Virgin, but then they started being really rude. I called Virgin up to check and it turns out it’s a total scam. Don’t fall for it!Virgin4 yearsWhen I answered, they just hung up on me without a word. Really strange.4 yearsTotal scam alert! Got a call from an Asian lady saying she was from BT about my internet and some virus issue. Problem is, I don’t even have BT internet. I kept cutting her off, asking her who she was, where she was calling from and what she meant. After a while, she just lost it and told me to piss off! Honestly, that’s the funniest thing that’s happened to me all day!BT4 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were from BT, telling me my internet had switched from private to public. I hung up straight away. Then they rang again but I just ignored it after looking up the number on here and seeing it was dodgy.BT4 yearsThis was clearly someone trying to scam me, claiming they were from Virgin Media.Virgin Media4 yearsGot a call on my home phone just after 7 in the morning from a bloke named Eddy - I think he had an Asian accent. Claimed he was ringing from Microsoft about my PC. I let him go on for a while, then told him straight he was full of rubbish but was curious to see what else he'd say. Didn’t seem to bother him one bit, so eventually I just hung up.EddyMicrosoft4 yearsThey told me there was an issue with our BT service, but we’re actually with Virgin so that’s not right.BTVirgin4 yearsWhat’s the point of ringing me if you’re just gonna ignore my answer?? Proper annoying, that is π4 yearsI received a call from this number claiming to be Microsoft, and they were rather insistent on why I had terminated a prior call from another number, 01244327633. The voice was distinctly foreign, much like the last. I mentioned that I'd be reporting them, to which they bluntly replied I couldn't. Then, rather abruptly, they hung up on me. Quite cheeky, if you ask me!Microsoft4 yearsWhat’s the point in calling if you’re just gonna ignore it??? Total pain in the neck π4 yearsGot charged two times today, and both times from different phone numbers. Quite annoying!4 yearsI recently received a rather bewildering call claiming there was an issue with our electricity supply from BT.

Seemed pretty dodgy to me.Microsoft4 yearsI've been getting calls quite a few times from someone speaking with an Asian accent, saying they're from BT and wanting to check on my internet connection.

Watch out, this seems like one of those dangerous fraud attempts.4 yearsSomebody called saying they were from BT, telling me my IP was exposed online. I asked how they knew that, considering I’m not even with BT. They mentioned all web traffic passes through BT’s network no matter which provider you have. Sounds smart, but I doubt it’s legit. Then I asked what my IP actually was, but they wouldn’t say and just ended the call. Definitely a scam, but I managed to waste their time for a good few minutes.BT4 yearsGot two calls from someone saying my internet was unsecured and anyone could get on it. I just said I wasn’t interested and hung up straight away.4 yearsSomebody rang me saying they were from Virgin Media and said people were hacking into my WiFi router without permission. They told me to go on this site called Validator. When I told them that wasn’t a legit Virgin Media page, they got all hostile and started yelling ‘Who told you that? Who told you that?’ Then they just hung up. After that, they called me again, but I didn’t pick up.Virgin MediaValidator4 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Stacey at Microsoft, sounded Asian. Stacey she was, yeah right! I just said I was about to leave and then hung up straight away.StaceyMicrosoft4 yearsGot a call from a woman earlier who had a Welsh accent. I couldn’t really make out what she was saying, so I just ended up hanging up.4 yearsA bloke called Alex Valentine rang me, said he was from BT and wanted to test my internet speed 'cause apparently, there was some issue. Then he started pushing me to download some app from the App Store - Teamview or summat like that. Next thing I knew, it said I'd have to pay a dollar to continue. That was enough for me, so I ended the call sharpish!BTAlex ValentineApp StoreTeamview4 yearsToday, I got a call from 01172052681 about some virus on my PC. I told the woman on the line, who had an Asian accent, that it can’t be true since I don’t even own a computer anymore. Then I asked her if she felt any guilt trying to scam folks, especially when times are so tough for everyone. She just ended the call straight away.4 yearsReceived a call from someone with a foreign twang. They somehow had my name even though I’m not listed publicly.
