I keep getting woken up at ridiculous hours by these chaps purporting to be from Virgin Media, insisting there's an issue with my router. What a load of nonsense! I made it perfectly clear that I didn’t want to hear from them again, but it seems that was a futile effort - they’ve rung me twice more since! Absolute fraudsters, if you ask me!

Over the past couple of days, I've been getting loads of calls from different 0117 numbers. It started with one pretending to be Virgin, which was a total scam. Since then, I've just been blocking them as they ring. The numbers are something like 01174090568, 01174094995, and 01179116873 - the last one actually called me twice in the past three hours. These calls are definitely becoming more frequent and a bit creepier!

Definitely a scam, no doubt about it. I got two calls this morning from different numbers - the first one ended in 0568 and the second one ended in 4802. When I picked up the first call, nobody spoke a word, so I just put the phone down. Really shady behaviour.

This morning at 07:34, I got a call from 0117 409 0568 right when everyone else was still asleep - it’s supposed to be our day off! When I answered, they just dropped the call straight away. Absolutely annoying! I tried ringing back to tell them what I thought about that, but of course, nobody picked up. So frustrating!

Got a call from 01174090568 at around 7:56 this morning. The bloke claimed he was from BT or Openreach and warned that my broadband was at risk. He then asked me to unlock my phone, which made me feel uneasy because he sounded a bit pushy. I decided to just hang up straight away.

They gave us a ring bright and early, jarring us from our slumber! I was rather suspicious of the call, so I promptly searched the number. It was no shock to discover it was a rather dubious one! I've now blocked the blokes and fingers crossed they won't bother us again!

Got a couple of calls from this number really early in the morning, didn't even bother answering properly. You can tell it’s some sort of automated scam ‘cause when you pick up, they don’t say anything, just some weird noise or nonsense in the background. Didn’t waste time giving them any chance.

Received a couple of calls around 07:45 and then again just two minutes later, purporting to be from the security team at Virgin Media. Once I expressed my doubts, pointing out that it's actually against the law to call customers before 9 in the morning, and added a rather unflattering term, he abruptly ended the call. I'm willing to bet this won't be the final encounter with these nuisances.

Got a call from this number early morning 15/2/22 around 7:29am. The person said they were from Virgin Mobile and warned me about some illegal stuff happening with my internet. I’ve lost count how many times I’ve had calls like this, must be the tenth or more. Like always, when I asked them for my account number, they just dropped the call straight away.

I got a call on my home phone from someone claiming to be from SKY, talking about my broadband. They tried to get me to switch over to my mobile and then asked me to use teamviewer so they could do some sort of check. It smelt like a total SCAM to me! Once I told them I wasn’t comfortable and wasn’t interested, I just ended the call. They were trying to spell out teamviewer to get remote access to my phone - I wasn’t having any of that.

They called our landlord’s number twice, which nobody actually has, and were quite pushy and unpleasant before just hanging up on us. The guy claimed there was a problem with our router, but I told him we had no issues and asked what the call was about. He said he was with Sky, so I asked for some account details to prove he really worked there, but he refused. Totally sounded like one of those scam call centre jobs. The first time they rang, a woman asked for our bank details and whether we do online banking or not.

Received a call from someone claiming to be with Virgin regarding the devices linked to my internet connection. I promptly informed him that we’re registered with the Telephone Preference Service, making his call illegal. When I mentioned reporting him, he brushed it off, showing no concern, and then proceeded to be quite impolite and confrontational. Absolutely shocking behaviour!

Got a call from a guy with an Indian accent saying he was from Virgin Media. He started off asking how I was doing but never gave his own name. He went on about some unauthorised activity on my broadband, like illegal downloads, but never asked for who the account holder was or any other details. Problem is, I don’t even use Virgin Media. When I questioned who he thought he was ringing, he just murmured something and ended the call abruptly. Bit dodgy if you ask me.

I just got a call from this number. It showed up with the area code for Bristol and rang about six times before hanging up. I don’t know anyone around there, so I just ignored it and looked it up here. After reading the replies, I’m pretty sure it’s one of those annoying calls, so I’ll be blocking it. A little while ago, I had a similar experience with a Bristol number that did the same thing - rang once or twice and then cut off when I answered. Looks like they switch numbers once they start getting blocked.

They mentioned a free inspection with no pressure, then tried to get me to answer survey questions that would take about 40 minutes.

The weird thing was when they started with, "How are you today?" and after I said "alright," they replied, "Perfect, we've got all the info we need." Bit odd, if you ask me.

So, about 9.30 this morning, I got a call from a bloke who said his name was John.

When I checked that number earlier, nothing dodgy showed up, but after reading other comments and hearing how his story changed, I’m starting to think this call might be a bit risky after all.
