Got a call from some dodgy scammer trying to trick me into paying to keep my phone line active. Complete rubbish, as I'm all paid up with BT. Just hung up and blocked the number straight away.

They called saying my internet would be cut off, but I don't even have internet on that phone line. Total scam, pretty obvious if you think about it.

Received a call from this number earlier; the caller, sounding Indian, told me to open a certain website on my Windows PC using Google Chrome. He then started asking about one of my accounts. The connection was awful, so I didn’t get everything, but when I asked him to repeat the web address, he just went quiet. Didn’t plan on checking any site (I don’t even use Chrome, honestly) - seemed like he was just fishing for info.

Just like others have mentioned, I rang bt and they told me it’s definitely a scam.

Just got a call like that a few minutes ago, about 3 mins back actually. Didn't feel right at all, thought it might be dodgy, so I went ahead and blocked the number straight away. Also made sure to report it as spam through my banned calls list.

I got a call just now from some guy claiming my internet was hacked from Canada and it was going to be shut off for 3 months. The bloke sounded Asian and even said I reminded him of his mum, but I’m Irish. When he told me to open my laptop, I told him it sounded like a scam and then just ended the call. Seriously, don’t buy into this nonsense, just put the phone down straight away.

Got a robo call telling me my BT line was supposedly at risk and was going to be cut off. Total nonsense if you ask me. I’ve blocked the number straight away and honestly, if you get a call like this, just block it too. Don’t fall for their tricks!

Got a call from TalkTalk saying there were issues with my internet. Because I wouldn’t switch my computer on they threatened to cut my internet off. I told her to go ahead then she just hung up on me.

Looks like my BT internet's about to get cut off - ha! Just like I ended and blocked your call!

Got a call earlier claiming my BT line was being cut off. Problem is, I’m not even a BT customer. Ended the call straight away. Then I tried ringing back from another phone but nobody picked up. Seems fishy to me.

Just had one of those annoying calls again, probably from some call centre in Mumbai, telling me my BT internet needs to be switched off for repairs. What a load of rubbish. Yesterday it was Virgin pulling the same stunt, and the day before that, TalkTalk. Absolute muppets all of ’em.
