Reports on phone number 01202148275
4 daysGot a call from someone saying they were with "BCO," trying to get me to update the details the exchange has. They asked about the number of phones we use. I told them to send an email so it could be checked properly, and then they just dropped the call.BCO10 daysLike some others mentioned, the caller wanted to know how many phones we use. I told him to send an email and I’d think about sharing the details. He insisted he only needed a single number, so I ended the call.17 daysGot a call from some bloke claiming to be from BCO - said the ‘B’ was for Broadband or something. He insisted they had to do a survey on our Broadband. Then started asking about the amount of landlines we have - like, why’s that even relevant to Broadband? He knew the company name but only had my mobile number, no clue who I am or what we do. Proper muppet.BCOBroadband18 daysGot a call from some bloke saying he’s with "BCO", saying they handle updating the phone exchange about how many phones we have at work. I put him on hold and tried to google BCO but found nothing at all. Told him if he could send an email with proper info, then maybe we could get back to him.BCO25 daysI got a call from someone pitching the Hi-Hi phone setup. They were definitely trying to flog it.25 daysSo, this morning I got a call from some bloke named Jamie who had the nerve to call me HUN!!! I told him I wasn’t going to say how many phones we own and then he just hung up on me. What a cheek!Jamie1 monthGot a call from a woman who said her name was Rose, quite friendly but didn’t say much else unless I pressed her. Eventually, she mentioned ‘Braidens’ and wanted to chat with certain folks there, probably names she'd found on Companies House or something. When I asked her to explain what Braidens actually does, she just ended the call.RoseCompanies HouseBraidens1 monthGot a call where they kept asking for our directors by name. None of our directors had a clue who this bloke was, and he wouldn’t explain why he was ringing. This isn’t the first time we've had a weird call like this in the past few weeks. Have gone ahead and blocked the number now.2 monthsGot a ring from a woman named Maisie who was asking for the director by name. She claimed the director would understand the reason for her call but wouldn’t reveal her company or location. She also said she’d spoken to him a few months back, which isn’t true at all. When I told her I’d never spoken to the director, she didn’t seem too happy and just ended the call straight away.Maisie2 monthsSo, I got a call from some girl named Maisie and this bloke she called her manager, Sam. They seriously don't get the hint when you say no and even told me that if you don't just end the call, they'll keep pushing their stuff on you, whether you want it or not. Honestly, I'd just hang up as soon as you can.MaisieSam2 monthsHad a few calls from some dodgy people, they even left a voicemail cursing on our answerphone! Proper annoying.2 monthsGot a call from someone looking for the director but mentioned Maisy. They wouldn’t say much, just claimed they already knew what the call was regarding. Thing is, the director wasn’t even familiar with who this person was. Decided to block the number after that.Maisy2 monthsA woman called Masie Maloney rang me up looking for one of the directors by name, and she was pretty persistent about it. I offered to take a message and said someone could get back to her, but she just ended the call straight away.Masie Maloney2 monthsThe caller said his name was Dominic Dower but refused to say what company he was from or why he was ringing. When I asked for more details he just ended the call. Very odd.Dominic Dower2 monthsGot a call from some bloke asking for the manager's name, but he never said his own or what he was after. Just kept going on about 'Bob' and then said he'd ring back tomorrow. Didn't mention the company or anything, really dodgy. I've added the number to our spam list now, cheers to everyone whose reviews helped me spot this!Bob2 monthsI just had a call from a woman named Masie Maloney who sounded really sure of herself. She wouldn’t say what company she was calling from, but kept asking to speak to one of our directors, saying he’d know her. Turns out, he had no idea who she was, so she didn’t get put through in the end.Masie Maloney2 monthsGot a call from a 01202 number, bloke called Billy from BCO. He was asking about our phone systems and somehow knew the names of our directors - I guess he found that info on Companies House or somewhere similar. When I asked about when the directors might be around, he said he wasn’t sure as they’re hardly ever in. He came across as quite polite and just hung up without any fuss.BillyBCOCompanies House2 monthsThis woman called asking for my boss by name but wouldn’t say why she was calling. When I asked her name, she finally gave it but got really annoyed when I kept pressing her. She ended up saying something like “I think I’ll try somewhere else.” I reckon she twigged I knew she was trying to scam me. Watch out for this one!2 monthsGot a call from someone named Melissa, who wanted to talk to the owner and mentioned a name, saying they were calling back. Total rubbish, just another annoying cold call!Melissa3 monthsGot a call from someone wanting to chat with the director but wouldn’t say what it was about. Felt a bit dodgy, like a scam or something fishy.3 monthsGot a call from someone claiming to be Dominick Dower, said he’d already chatted to me this morning. Before saying anything, I checked this number on here and read the other folks’ experiences. Definitely a scam, watch out!Dominick3 monthsGot a call from BETTER claiming they were with Openreach. Sounded all proper and polite but straight away started the usual "I just talked to your director" rubbish. Then they wanted my personal info. Nah, thanks but no thanks. Just another scam trying its luck.BETTER3 monthsWhat a cheek! Some bloke kept insisting on talking to the director - nope, not happening.3 monthsGot a call from a new number but the same crap about stage 2 completion or something. Honestly, I’m beyond fed up with these scammers. Like, why on earth would I trust some dishonest lot like that? They’re the last folks I’d ever consider doing business with.3 monthsGot a call from this really rude bloke claiming he’d spoken to our MD - who, funny enough, was right beside me! My dad’s the MD, rarely ever in the office and definitely doesn’t pick up random calls. What a total wally, honestly!3 monthsMaisy was super insistent and wouldn’t tell me where she was ringing from. Proper pushy, honestly.3 monthsGot a call again from some Maisy claiming she’s with Maloney. She wanted to speak to the director, said I’d understand the reason. When I asked what Maloney actually does, she wouldn’t say. Then when I said I’d just google them, she just hung up on me. Bit odd if you ask me.MaisyMaloney3 monthsThey insisted on talking just with the directors, no one else.4 monthsGot a call from 01202 14 8275 earlier. A woman answered and said her name was Maisy from Maloney. When I asked what the call was about, she said the director would have the details. I mentioned I’d just look up her number online, and then she just hung up on me.MaisyMaloney4 monthsI got a call from someone claiming to be with BCO, which I’d never heard of. When I asked what it was about, he said he wanted to find out how many handsets we use. I asked him again where exactly he was calling from, and when he said BCO, I knew it wasn’t our supplier. I tried to find out why they wanted this info, but he just ended the call. Definitely felt like a scam.BCO4 monthsWatch out for Poppy, she’s super persistent!Poppy4 monthsGot a really unpleasant bloke on the line asking straight for the director. Wouldn’t say what the call was about, kept dodging my questions. His manner was all pushy and rude. Honestly, just block the number, it’s not worth the hassle or stress.4 monthsGot a call out of the blue from some firm saying they're BCO. Total rubbish, just spam spam spam!BCO4 monthsGot a call from a number I didn’t recognise on our home phone, but they didn’t leave any voicemail. I’m pretty wary about phone scams these days, and this one definitely set off some alarm bells for me.4 monthsGot a call from some bloke wanting to talk to the director, but he’s off right now. He just lost it and said, “Honestly, I reckon your bloody brain melts as you get older, I was sure he was back by now.” Quite the mood!5 monthsI wouldn’t mention any company or toss out a name, but the biz is kinda called AhhhSouls, technically speaking.6 monthsHad someone called “Amy” ring me up, saying she was with BCO. Turns out it’s a bogus outfit using the same initials as a famous built environment group, probably hoping to trick folks into giving details about their phone handsets for some broadband list update. Can’t believe the cheek of these scammers, like we’re all that gullible! Totally embarrassing.AmyBCO6 monthsAmy from BCO called me again - seems like she does this yearly! This was my first time chatting with her. She asked about how many landlines we had, then wanted to know when one of the directors would be around. Turns out her info about them was super old, like from over a decade ago. When I hinted it sounded like a sales pitch, she got a bit defensive and quickly ended the call. Felt like she was just collecting info rather than making a proper offer. Still, she came across as quite polite.AmyBCO6 monthsThey kept hassling me about what phone system we use at work, quite annoying really.6 monthsGot a call from Ann Clark looking for someone who works here, but when I asked where she was calling from, she just wouldn’t say no matter how many times I asked. She kept insisting the person would recognise her, but none of the staff had a clue. She sounded pretty pushy, so I just ended the call.Ann Clark8 monthsGot a call from this number earlier today, a woman named Rose was on the line. She kept asking for the director by their first name but didn’t really say what it was regarding. When I tried to get more info, she mentioned something like Braden? I reckon she might ring back tomorrow.RoseBraden8 monthsI had a weird call from someone called Amy who said they contact folks every year, which seemed off to me. She wanted to ask some questions over the phone, but I told her nicely I wasn't interested. After that, she basically said that if I don’t answer her questions, they’d keep ringing me back. Bit annoying, to be honest.Amy8 monthsGot a call from someone named Amy Clark, she was asking for one of our directors just by his first name. She wouldn’t give me any info about her company or why she was calling, just said the director would know her. When I tried to find out which company she was from, she ended the call straight away. Sounds exactly like a scam to me, like others have said.Amy Clark8 monthsGot a dodgy call asking about the number of phones I own. Told them to buzz off right away!8 monthsGot a call from a woman wanting to chat with me by name. When I asked who she was, she said she was from “better communications” and claimed she’d already talked to *my name* about upgrading our phone system. I told her she was actually speaking to the director herself, and she just went quiet - proper clueless! Total scam, avoid.8 monthsThey called asking for a director but didn’t explain why, only mentioning something about a stage 2 completion. Pretty vague and didn’t sound too legit to me.8 monthsSome bloke named Mike from Trim rang up and was really disrespectful. He asked for my MD, claiming someone had told him to call today. When I tried to find out what the call was about, he dodged the question. As soon as he realised I wasn’t going to give him the info he wanted, he just hung up on me. Quite rude!MikeTrim8 monthsHad a woman ring up the office asking to talk to the manager, saying she was returning his call. I didn't know who she was on about. When I enquired where she was calling from, her answer was just "nowhere". She kept dodging why she was ringing, and after seeing other reviews, I'm pretty sure it wasn't a genuine call.8 monthsSome woman rang, wanted to speak to the director but refused to say what about, claimed it was confidential. Seemed pretty suspicious to me, so no chance I'll be putting her through.8 monthsI got a call from someone called Amy at BCO asking me how many phones are in our office. She sounded really unpleasant and rude. When I questioned why she wanted that info, she just ended the call on me. Honestly, Amy, if you happen to see this, maybe try learning some basic customer service skills. Proper rude behaviour!AmyBCO8 monthsThey called wanting to talk to my director. When I asked what it was about, they just said "we’re at stage 2 completion, he knows me”. Complete rubbish. Definitely a scam. I’ve already handed their number and IP details over to the cops.8 monthsGot a call from some bloke named Rob Moore. He claimed he’d chatted with the Director, which was total bollocks. What a rude, cocky tosser! Definitely a scammer if you ask me. Had to block him straight away.Rob MooreDirector8 monthsi work solo on the shop floor, dont really get involved with phone stuff at our business. got a call from a woman who was embarrassingly rude, said she was from BCO or something? no clue what that even means!9 monthsGot a call from some bloke named Austin today. He spoke to one of my coworkers and asked for me by my first name, acting like we’re mates or something. When she asked what company he was with, he just said “He knows why I’m calling.” She pressed him again about where he was calling from, and his answer was just “Better.” I’ve never come across a company called Better, and I certainly don’t know anyone named Austin. If you’re out there, Austin, mate, you’re doing it all wrong and sound like a complete numpty. Your cold call game is seriously rubbish.Austin9 monthsHad a few calls from someone called Rose, she came across alright but kept ringing up out of the blue. After that, I’m not keen on using them, even if they were the only option around.Rose9 monthsGot a call from some group called Broadband Community Organisation or something like that, asking about how many phones we had for some kind of annual check at the exchange. When I mentioned I’ve worked here for like 20 years and this was the first time I’d heard of it, the woman insisted someone else had already contacted me. She then said she'd post some info through. I doubt I’ll be getting anything more from them! The number showed up as Bournemouth, which is near where I’m based.Broadband Community OrganisationBournemouth9 monthsGot a call from someone called BCO asking about the number of phones we run in our business. They mentioned they’re a non-profit but weirdly said they don’t have any website. Bit odd if you ask me!BCO9 monthsThis number, along with 07360271745, keeps ringing non-stop for weeks now, always asking to speak to the director. When I request more details, they claim they’ve sent an email and it’s about a prior conversation. I checked with the director, who says she’s never had any contact with them before. Everytime I offer to pass on a message, they just cut the call. Really annoying!9 monthsGot a call from someone claiming to be Ben, but it was definitely a scam. Once they figured I wasn’t interested, they just hung up on me. Best to steer clear of these dodgy callers!Ben9 monthsGot a call today from someone asking to talk to my Director. After chatting with them last week, I had a feeling, so I did a bit of digging and found out it’s a total scam. Best steer clear! Mention you've checked their records and "Alice" will hang up sharpish!9 monthsI got a call from someone saying they were from a phone company and that they’d been in touch before, asking if we really only had the one phone number. When I asked a few simple questions about who they’d spoken to and wanted more info, the person on the other end got all rude and pushy. Definitely seemed like a dodgy call, felt quite unpleasant.9 monthsComplete rubbish, stay away from this! Got calls from a woman named "Alice" over the past few days who said she’d already talked to our director - no idea who she meant though. Each time we asked what the call was regarding, she just dodged the questions and then rudely hung up on us. Total waste of time.Alice9 monthsGot a call from someone named 'Ben Incel' asking for our director. They were really dodgy about who they really were, just kept asking about the 'Beta stage 2 progress'. Seemed like total nonsense to me. They've called a few times since then, so I had to block the number.Ben Incel9 monthsSomebody rang up saying they were with a “Broadband Community Organisation” and mentioned they call annually to update details. Since our company has no ties to that group, I asked for an email so we could check things out properly. She said they’d sent one last year, but we never got anything. Honestly, it didn’t feel legit to me. When I pressed her about who she actually was and why she was calling, she just cut the call off without a single word. Pretty rude behaviour. To me, this was almost definitely a scam.Broadband Community Organisation9 monthsJust saw I had a missed call from this number, and after reading the comments, looks like a total scam!9 monthsI got a call from someone claiming she'd chatted with one of the directors before and knew them personally. Complete rubbish, definitely a scam so be careful!9 monthsThis woman said she was calling from the BCO and rings yearly asking about how many phones the company has. She claimed it’s a non profit group that needs to update their info every year. Sounded dodgy to me, like a phishing scam or something. Then she wanted to know the best time to call back to speak with someone else! Totally suspicious.BCO10 monthsGot a call earlier today from someone saying they were from the Broadband Community Organisation. They said they do an annual check on how many phones we have. I requested their website to verify, but she said there wasn’t one. Then she mentioned they had sent us an email before, so I asked for the email address to look it up. After that, she just ended the call. Felt like a total scam to me.Broadband Community Organisation10 monthsSomeone rang saying they were from the Broadband Community Group and asked stuff about our phones. When I asked for proper ID or proof, they couldn’t give any real details. Seemed a bit dodgy to me.Broadband Community Group10 monthsGot a weird call from someone called Amy who kept asking about how many phones we have and wanted to know the directors' names. She also asked if we’re on site Monday to Friday. Felt like she was trying to fish for info, but all she got was stuff anyone could find publicly. Be careful not to share anything private with callers like that.AmyFelt10 monthsThis morning I had a similar thing happen like others here. I wouldn't share my details and this "Amy" lady just cut me off, but she was quite impolite before that.Amy10 monthsJust like quite a few others here, I found it really confusing and a bit intrusive. Some folks might not get that a telephone exchange isn’t the same as a business phone setup - they’re pretty much unrelated. When I asked the caller who they were and what they wanted, she just kept going over the same script without giving me a straight answer. Felt like a marketing tactic trying to find out how many extensions I had. Best to stay clear and don’t share anything with them.11 monthsSome woman called claiming to be from the Broadband Community Group and started asking about how old my phones were and how many I have. When I kept asking too much about who she actually was, she just got annoyed and quickly ended the call on me.Broadband Community Group11 monthsGot a call from someone saying they were with the Broadband Community Group, but it was obvious they were just trying to sell something. They kept asking about how many phones we had because supposedly they're "upgrading" the exchange. As soon as I stopped giving them details, they just ended the call. Proper dodgy.Broadband Community Group11 monthsGot a call from someone saying they were from the Broadband Community Group. I asked if they were our existing provider since they wanted to know how many phones we’ve got. (I already knew they weren’t who we use.) She told me they just call once a year to gather that kind of info.Broadband Community Group12 monthsGot a call earlier saying they were from some Broadband Community group or whatever, but I had no clue who they were. Didn’t wait around to hear their sales pitch, just cut them off straight away. What’s handsome and ends the call? That’d be me, cheers!Broadband Community12 monthsHonestly, anyone working for this place should seriously consider quitting. They ring up businesses asking how many headsets or users they got, supposedly to "update the exchange" or something like that. Feels like either a total con or just a pointless hassle!1 yearI got a call from 01202148275, someone said they were from the Broadband Community Organisation or something like that. This person asked how many phones we have at home, which seemed odd. When I started asking who they really were and why they were calling, they just ended the call straight away.

I just ended the call.1 yearI got a call from someone saying they were with a phone company, asking about how many phones were in our house.
