Phone number βοΈ 01201201245 π is reported as a persistent nuisance number linked to scams impersonating TalkTalk technical support, often using Indian call centres. Callers falsely claim issues with broadband or routers and attempt to gain remote access to usersβ computers. Many recipients, including former TalkTalk customers and those with ex-directory numbers, report receiving multiple calls daily, sometimes with threats or silence upon answering. Despite widespread complaints, TalkTalkβs response has been deemed inadequate, with reliance on call blocking services insufficient to curb the harassment. Users are advised not to engage with these calls, to register with the Telephone Preference Service, and use call-blocking features. The situation highlights concerns over data breaches and the need for stronger industry and regulatory action to protect customers.

10 yearsI got a call from 12029325918 claiming to be TalkTalk, saying my computer was slow due to my broadband and I needed to switch it on. I asked them to call me back on my mobile to prove they were actually from TalkTalk, as that’s what the real company would do. Unsurprisingly, they never called back - total scam. Honestly, I’m fed up with these dodgy calls, TalkTalk really should step up and do something about it.TalkTalk10 yearsGot a call from 012029325918 claiming to be TalkTalk, saying my internet was slow and it was my computer’s fault. They asked me to switch it on but I told them if they were legit, they should call me on my mobile as TalkTalk usually does. Unsurprisingly, they never did - total scam. I’m fed up with these annoying calls, really hope TalkTalk cracks down on this nonsense soon.TalkTalk10 yearsI keep getting calls almost every day from talk talk about my router. I switched my provider ages ago and I'm no longer with talk talk, but they just won't stop ringing me. It's getting really annoying!TalkTalk10 yearsThis "talk talk technical dept" bloke keeps ringin me. Told him to jog on, but now he’s threatening to r#p# me missus and kids. Proper nasty stuff. They should find him and put him away for good. Surely tracking down these idiots ain’t that tough.11 yearsSince being a TalkTalk user, ever since my number got hacked, I'm getting constant calls starting with 00 and 000. I reckon my info must be leaked somewhere. The current limit of blocking 10 numbers on TalkTalk just ain't cutting it, they really ought to let us block at least 20. TalkTalk, please listen.TalkTalk11 yearsI've been a TalkTalk user and ever since my phone got hacked, I keep getting calls from numbers starting with 00 and 000 constantly. Pretty sure my info's been leaked somewhere now. Their system only lets you block 10 numbers, which is clearly not enough - they need to bump it up to at least 20. Come on TalkTalk, sort it out.TalkTalk11 yearsThis number kept calling over and over until we decided to pick up. The person on the other end, speaking with an Indian accent, claimed to be from TalkTalk and said our internet would be disconnected unless we powered on the computer to follow his steps. I just hung up straight away. Funny thing - shortly after, the internet did actually stop working, and we had to get in touch with TalkTalk to get it back on. Just today, another call came through from 05946 with a similar story!TalkTalk11 yearsFor the past few weeks, I’ve been getting loads of calls from this number. When I pick up, there’s just a brief bit of noise - like voices and office bustle - before the line suddenly goes dead. On top of that, I’ve had plenty of scam calls from folks pretending to be from TalkTalk, so I reckon it might be connected. It’s really annoying now, and TalkTalk haven’t done a thing to sort it out!Talktalk11 yearsMy mate just got calls like this too - I’d suggest getting on the Telephone Preference Service for both landlines and mobiles, plus popping a call blocking app on your phone like I did for a different number.Telephone Preference Service11 yearsmy missus almost got duped by this scam, but she rang TalkTalk on her phone and they told her to hang up and turn off the laptop, so she did just that, apparently stopped any harm or charges. they kept phoning non-stop for a bit but soon gave up. laptop looks fine now, but we did a system restore and ran a quick security check just to be safe. also put on call barring like TalkTalk suggested.TalkTalk11 yearsThe landline has been getting calls from this number two days in a row now, but I don’t pick up anymore. If it’s someone from family or a business I’m familiar with, they usually leave a message or try my mobile instead. I do use 1471 to see who it is, just in case it’s someone I know, but honestly it’s a nuisance, especially if it ends up being some sort of scam. I’ve got more important stuff to be dealing with.11 yearsI keep getting calls from this number, like once or twice every day, sometimes even three times. They say they're from TalkTalk and somehow know my hubby's name. Since we got back from a trip abroad in May and had lost our bags at Heathrow, we've been getting calls from other numbers too. Feels a bit too suspicious, like it might be linked somehow.Talk TalkHeathrow11 yearsGot calls from the same number plus some other five digit ones. Told the bloke I knew he wasn’t actually from TalkTalk but he just had a laugh. Well, looks like I’m off TalkTalk then.TalkTalk11 yearsGot two calls from this number in the past 10 minutes, let the answerphone get it but they just hung up. If you’re with TalkTalk, you can block annoying numbers using their free "Last Caller Barring" service. After you get a call from a pest, just dial 14258 and follow the steps. Search ‘TalkTalk last caller barring’ for more details. Easy as that :)Google11 yearsHad the exact same thing happen to me like others on here. Definitely looks like a scam. I told my phone company (Talktalk) about it, but they said they only treat it as a nuisance if you get 10 calls from the same number within a week.Talktalk11 yearsGot a second call, picked up after about five rings. Heard an Indian accent, sounded like a call centre for sure, saying “This is TalkTalk.” He already knew my name and wanted me to confirm it. I didn’t say anything and just asked twice, “What do you want?” Then I stayed quiet. After a bit of silence, he just gave up and hung up after around 20 seconds.11 yearsNever pick up fake calls. It’s just a scam trying to trick you into handing over cash on the phone.11 yearsHad the exact same thing happen to me, just like others here. Total scam. It’s some call centre in India pretending to be Talk Talk, trying to get into my computer claiming it’s got a virus. My number’s been unlisted for 18 years and only recently, like in the past couple of months, since Talk Talk got hacked and loads of customer info was leaked, have I started getting these dodgy calls.TalkTalk11 yearsGot a call from this number around 1.40pm. I answered straight away, but the person on the other end just ended the call without saying a word or making any noise. Quite strange.11 yearscompletely fed up with getting calls like this. had about 8 yesterday saying they're from TALKTALK. first call today was at 7.30am and then another one around 11am. my hubby is 83 and really needs his rest. honestly, this is driving me mad, i’m close to breaking. if this sort of behaviour isn't harassment, then what is?TalkTalk11 yearsLoads of calls lately from folks saying they're from TalkTalk, and it's driving me mad. We're almost scared to pick up the phone now. I reached out to TalkTalk (even though we don’t use their service anymore) and they just said to check an email with instructions that never actually showed up. That’s pretty rubbish, honestly. Looks like our only option might be to switch to a new number, which is such a hassle.TalkTalk11 yearsTotal rubbish TalkTalk security scam. I’m sick of getting these calls, they come through about 3 or 5 times daily. Now when I pick up, I wait till they start talking then say something along the lines of "Hello, this is Birmingham Dog Unit," and they just hang up straight away. I also think TalkTalk ought to do more to deal with this mess.TalkTalkPlymouth Constabulary11 yearsThey keep ringin but I still haven’t picked up. My sister-in-law fell for it and it took her a couple days to get her computer sorted out. Honestly, I’m thinkin it's time to switch from Talktalk.TalkTalk11 yearsI agree with what others have said about this, plus loads of other numbers linked to Talktalk's huge data leak of customer info. I've had an ex-directory phone number that never got any spam or scam calls for nearly 30 years. But recently, in the last couple of months, I've been flooded with up to a dozen calls a day from what seem like criminal gangs in India pretending to be Talktalk tech support. They claim there's an issue with my computer that's harming my router and affecting Talktalk's system. The minute you call them out for being scammers, they start swearing and just hang up.Talktalk11 yearsThis number said they were from Microsoft and asked to get into my computer. Hung up on them straight away!Microsoft11 yearssome bloke saying hes from talktalk tech support. totally a scam, no doubt about it.TalkTalk11 yearsWe keep receiving loads of calls each day from numbers like this. The people say they’re from Talk Talk. We’ve let Talk Talk know but they just say to block the number. They really should do something about this instead of letting their customers get bothered nonstop.Talk Talk11 yearsthis number keeps ringing me over and over again11 yearsThis number is being used by fraudsters based in India. TalkTalk didn’t protect the personal info of loads of clients - even those who had their numbers unlisted. TalkTalk haven’t owned up nor done much to put a stop to the calls. Ofcom and the ICO haven’t really done anything useful either, even though the law’s been clearly broken. For lots of folks, it means getting hassled 5 times daily, without fail. I find it completely shocking and unacceptable.IndiaTalkTalkOfcomInformation Commissioner ' s OfficeSubmit Your Own Report (01201 201245)
