3 yearsSeemed to be one of those overseas call centres, to be honest.3 yearsI received a call from someone who claimed to represent BT, but there was a fair bit of background racket. The chap had a rather foreign accent and said he was ringing about some supposed problems with our internet connection. Quite dodgy, if you ask me!BT3 yearsAt 17:08, I got a call on my mobile and right away it showed up as ‘Possible Spam’. I decided to pick up and asked the lady on the other end why my phone flagged her number like that, but then she just ended the call on me! Weird behaviour if you ask me.3 yearsSomebody phoned saying they were from O2, but I just told the girl I’m with Vodafone.O2Vodafone3 yearsTried ringing me but just dropped the call when I didn't pick up.3 yearsHonestly, it’s getting so annoying! I’m only 14 and I’ve already had about 7 calls from these spammy numbers. Why on earth do they keep bugging me? I don’t care about phone plans or energy prices at all. Just leave me alone!3 yearsThis is the third time this week I've had a call pretending to be from Sky, but we don’t even have Sky! They hung up quick when I challenged them. The number looked like it was from England, but I’m pretty sure it’s coming from India or nearby. Honestly, there has to be some way for the phone companies here to block these calls. Or maybe someone’s lining their pockets too well to bother doing anything about it.SkyIndiaUK3 yearsI picked up but they just stayed quiet and then ended the call.3 yearsHang up right away and block the number, it’s definitely a scammer. Don’t waste your time answering!3 yearsI kept quiet for a few moments and then finally decided to hang up.3 yearsThey called and after a weird pause when I said hello, he finally asked how I was.
