I received a rather bothersome call from a chaotic call centre trying to peddle their wares.

They claimed to be ringing on behalf of BT Openreach to discuss how my broadband is performing along with details about my package. The unfortunate truth is that BT isn’t my internet provider at all.

Loads of calls from people pretending to be from BT and Openreach, saying there's suspicious activity on my internet. I told them straight up they're not with BT and called them scammers before hanging up. But it hasn't stopped them, and now they're just non stop pests.

This number keeps calling me and it's really annoying. From what I've read on other posts, it seems like it could be some sort of scam, so I’d just say avoid picking up and definitely block it!

They rang me but never picked up when I answered and didn’t leave any voicemail either.

Got a random silent call with no one talking, then it just went to voicemail but no message was left. Real callers usually say something, so I’m pretty sure it was dodgy. I’ve blocked the number and put it in for a report with Action Fraud.

Cheers for the warning, I’ve gone ahead and flagged them to the TPS and Ofcom. If, and it’s a big if, they’re really operating out of Redruth or owned by folks here in the UK, then they could be on the hook for thousands in fines for breaching our laws. Hope this mess gets sorted soon. You have a good day!

There was this awkward silence before anyone said a word, so I immediately guessed it was probably one of those cold callers.

Got a call from someone saying they're from BT Openreach, asking me to give my password so they could close my account or something. The bloke wasn’t great at English and I couldn’t really understand him, so I just ended the call. I’ve since added the number to my BT block list to stop any more calls from them.

Got a call from someone pretending to be BT Openreach, saying my number was blacklisted because it’s getting hacked. Heard the same kinda thing from a different number just the day before. Feels like a total scam to me.
