01179118915 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01179118915 👆 is reported as a persistent scam number repeatedly targeting UK residents with calls pretending to be from Virgin Media or Openreach. Callers often claim internet issues and request users to enter codes or provide personal or payment details. The calls feature aggressive or abusive behaviour when challenged, sometimes involving multiple calls daily or early mornings, with dead air or hang-ups if questioned. Recipients report suspicious tactics, such as vague identification, unclear accents, and attempts to manipulate users into remote computer access. Legitimate companies do not request such actions, and many have confirmed these calls are fraudulent. It is strongly advised not to engage, avoid entering any codes, and report the number to the Telephone Preference Service or your MP to help combat this ongoing nuisance.

4 yearsThey claimed to be from Open Reach, but since I was waiting for a call from them, I thought it would come through on my mobile, not my landline. The call felt a bit dodgy, so I just hung up. They’ve not tried ringing again, and if it were legit, I reckon they’d have given me another ring by now.Open Reach4 yearsGot a call from this number at 8.59 this morning but there was total silence on the other end. Decided to block it after that.4 yearsGot a call on my landline earlier today (had a squizz at 1471) and after seeing what's on here, I reckon a ref's whistle might be needed if they ring again!4 yearsGot a call from a woman who sounded like she was from India, claiming to be from OpenReach. She said there was a problem with my internet connection, which honestly isn’t great anyway. She had me enter some commands on my work laptop at first, which made me uneasy. I then told her it was a work device with strict security and said she should contact my employer instead, Bristol Royal Infirmary. She hung up straight away after that.Bristol Royal Infirmary4 yearsThis number has rung me 7 times in just one day, but they never bothered to leave a voicemail.4 yearsThis morning at about 7:40, I got a call from 01179118915 - a number I don't know. I've seen other folks saying that's the same time they get calls from this number too. I chose not to pick up since it wasn't a number I recognised, but honestly, it's pretty irritating to be bothered by this kind of rubbish.4 yearsJust got a call from this number, and some guy with an Indian accent claimed he was checking up on a failed payment for my Talk-Talk account. I told him that’s strange, because I dont even have an account with Talk-Talk, so how could any payment fail? Then he just abruptly ended the call. Definitely seems like one of those scam attempts aiming to get money.TalkTalk4 yearsENOUGH with the endless calls, someone’s got to step up and sort this out!!! I’ve laid out what needs doing below. Loads of people moan about it but never actually do anything. Well, I’m trying! But just sending one email to a single MP won’t fix the problem overnight. It’s gonna need a lot more effort than that.4 yearsCaller claimed they were from Virgin Media.Virgin Media4 yearsThey started ringing at 7.40 this morning, quite early I must say. I picked up but only got the answerphone, and no message was recorded.4 yearsNo idea mate.4 yearsGot a call from someone speaking with an Indian accent saying they were from Virgin Media. I told them straight up it was a scam, and they just hung up on me. It's a shame people have to lose their principles just to earn a living. I even considered calling the number back to ask if they had any conscience and how they'd feel if someone scammed their own family, but then I thought maybe the call would be more expensive than usual.Virgin Media4 yearsThey were ringing bright and early at 7.40 this morning. I picked up, but it just went straight to answerphone and no one left a message.4 yearsGot a call from some guy with an Asian accent claiming he was from Virgin. The connection was so awful, I couldn’t make out what he was trying to say. I’m not even a Virgin customer, so it smelled like a dodgy scam to me. Ended up blocking the number.Virgin4 yearsAfter a brief pause, some woman who definitely sounded like she was calling from a call centre started talking. I just ended the call straight away.4 yearsGot a call from some scammy Indian number, but they just stayed silent on the other end. Was weird cos usually they hang up straight away but this time they stayed quiet for ages. Happened twice now, so I ended up blasting my Poundland personal alarm to scare them off. Proper dodgy technique they’re trying now!India4 yearsGot a call yesterday from someone claiming they were from Virgin Media saying my internet was running slow. They said they would help me fix it and talked me through loads of stuff for nearly two hours. Then they suddenly asked for my bank info, which made me suspicious. I figured out it was a scam and ended the call. They sounded really convincing, like they knew exactly what I was doing.Virgin Media4 yearsI couldn’t place that number at all.4 yearsGot a call from 01179118915, some woman said she was Virgin Media wanting to chat about my internet. I asked her to give me my own name, she said “Why don’t you know your name? I know mine.” I just told her I didn’t believe she was really Virgin Media. Unsurprisingly, she dropped the call. Total scam, definitely reporting this to the phone preference service!Virgin Media4 yearsThey said they were from Virgin Media and told me there was an issue with my internet but it was clearly a scam.Virgin Media4 yearsI’ve had this number ringing me pretty much twice every day, but they never bother leaving any message. Because my caller ID shows who’s calling, I just don’t pick up. They’ve been calling daily for more than a week now.4 yearsThey keep ringing up nonstop, reading from a script it seems. They say they’re from Virgin, always using the same spiel about warnings and errors on your internet. Thing is, my internet’s working perfectly fine. Whenever I ask them more about the issue or who exactly they are, they just end the call straight away. Luckily, they haven’t tried to get any personal info yet, but the moment you challenge their story, they just hang up. Feels like a total scam to me.Virgin4 yearsDon’t fall for Virgin Media, it’s a total scam! Just refuse and end the call quick.Virgin Media4 yearsGot a call from 01179118915 but the moment I picked up, they just hung up on me. Didn’t bother calling back. Had a quick look online and it seems this number is probably linked to a scam where they ask you to press 1. Best to avoid pressing anything if you get a call from them.4 yearsGot calls from 01179118915 claiming to be Virgin. They rang me at about 10:05, and then again just before midday, about 11:50. I wasn't in the mood for it and ended up getting quite annoyed and swore at whoever was on the other end.Virgin4 yearsAround 10 in the morning almost daily they ring me up. It usually takes me saying hello three times before someone finally picks up.4 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be Virgin Media, total scam!Virgin Media4 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be Virgin, said there was an issue with my internet.

Totally felt like a scam to me. Hung up straight away!Virgin Media4 yearsReceived a call claiming to be from Virgin Media. There were children chattering away in the background.
