6 yearsGot a call from 01179824252, cheers to everyone who shared their experiences! I reckon the folks behind this number are just dialing at random because I don’t know any of those companies like Virgin they mention. Plus, it’s been ages since I lived in Bristol. Honestly, they should find something better to do!VirginBristol6 yearsWatch out for scams! Someone called saying they were from Virgin Media's Tech Department. I told them I’m not a Virgin Media customer and asked them to remove my number from their list. They just ended the call right after.Virgin Media Technical TeamVirgin Media6 yearsThis guy rings up, says his name’s John but he’s got a really odd accent, so I was straight away on my guard. He claimed to be from BT Open Reach and said there was something wrong with our router. Thing is, we’re not even BT customers, and our internet was working fine anyway. We told him that and just hung up. Clearly just fishing for people who aren’t paying attention.JohnBT Open ReachBT6 yearsHad my call blocker set up to stop any calls, and when the caller got asked their identity, they just hung up. I've already blacklisted this number.6 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Virgin Media, telling me my internet’d be switched off by 4 in the afternoon.

Got them blocked now.6 yearsGot a call this afternoon from someone claiming there was an issue with my router. The caller said they were from SKY and needed to sort out my internet problem. At first, a woman spoke to me, then she passed me over to a 'technician'. This bloke asked me to get on my laptop and type in a web address he read out, saying he’d fix the issue that way. I was pretty sure it was a dodgy scam. So, I messsed with him for a bit until he got annoyed and finally ended the call!6 yearsThis number has rung me a few times, each time claiming to be from different companies. Once they said they were Sky and that my router's signal was weak. Another time, they warned my internet would cut out in about 4 hours. Today, someone said they were from BT. Honestly, be careful and don’t share any personal info with them.SkyBT6 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from BT about my internet speed. He wanted me to get on my computer so he could tell me what to enter, but when I said I wasn't good with computers, he just hung up on me. That same number is ringing me again 😠BT6 yearsThis number just rang me offering fibre broadband, but I was a bit doubtful about it. Before I could say much, the call got cut off.6 yearsNobody said a word, just complete silence, clearly someone who’s got way too much free time on their hands.6 yearsi got a call from someone claiming to be with BT Openreach, saying my internet speed was lower than it should be. i told them twice that my speed was fine, then they just said alright and hung up. weird thing is, i'm not even with BT! watch out for these calls!BT OpenreachBT6 yearsGot a call from someone who claimed to be "Daisy" at Virgin Media.
