Got a call at 14:03 on Monday 16th January 2016 but no voicemail was left. Tried ringing back at 16:45 that day and got a recorded message saying their voicemail was full and couldn’t take any more messages. Maybe they’re getting loads of complaints or something?

Had three calls already today from 01214453137, all with the same story. They claim to be from BT technical support. We’re actually waiting for a callback from our doctor. This really isn’t on. BT really need to put an end to this nonsense.

I got a call from a woman claiming she worked for BT and warned me that googling stuff was infecting my PC with viruses. She said my hub had been sending alerts to their team. When I told her my computer wasn’t actually at home right now, she was quite abrupt and unfriendly.

Got a call from a number claiming to be BT. Just so you know, BT don’t usually ring out of the blue like this, and when I asked, they said they don’t have your details. Better off reporting it to BT customer support to be safe.

Got a call off a lady who said her name was Angela Mathew, sounded like she had an Indian accent. I asked where she was ringing from, she said London, but when I pressed her on exactly where in London, she just couldn’t say. She didn’t seem to know much about the place she claimed to work in, then she hung up on me. Tried calling back but got an automated message saying the voicemail was full. For someone called Angela Mathews, her English was pretty poor.

Some bloke rang me saying he was Chris Morris from BT Internet. I checked with BT through their online chat and they said they never made any calls to me. So, defo a scam. Watch out coz he tried to get me to go on my computer, saying there was strange stuff happening on YouTube and other apps. The caller ID 1471 showed the number as 01214453137.

Today I got a call from some Indian woman claiming her name was "Jennifer Janet" - like, seriously? She said my computer was full of viruses and offered to sort them out, plus she tried to sell me an internet upgrade (yeah right). I humoured her for a bit, but then she told me to press some keys on my keyboard. I pretended to do it and when she asked what came up on the screen, I lost it and shouted at her, calling her a scammer and telling her to get lost. She hung up immediately, lucky me! Honestly, people shouldn’t be scared to give those scammers a bit of abuse, swear if you want, threaten even - they can’t do squat. Just never trust them or follow any of their bizarre instructions!

Had a call like that too. The bloke claimed he was with BT and said my router was showing errors, which threw me off because BT always refers to it as a hub. Then he asked if I was at my PC. I said no and explained I wasn’t up for messing about with it, so he just hung up.

BT needs to take action. These scammers trick trusting folks and end up taking over their computers along with personal, sensitive and financial details. They’re crooks working from overseas, hiding behind a BT number to make themselves look legit.

Don’t give any details to them. They’re definitely not BT. When I said to the guy if they were really BT they wouldn’t mind me calling BT direct, he said then I’d catch him out! He wanted to talk about the internet box, but I kept telling him I’d call BT. He just thanked me and hung up after that.

Had a call earlier today about supposed interference with my BT Hub, with the person urging me to log in. Gets annoying as they ring quite often. I just tell em I don’t log on for strangers and that I’ll be reporting the call to BT, then hang up straight away. Honestly, the best way to handle these lot is to stop them speaking before they even start.

Got a call from a guy with an Indian accent saying someone hacked into my Wi-Fi box. He said BT landline told him it wasn’t even with BT, but I’m with EE anyway. Rang EE and they said nothing was wrong on their end. When I called the 0121 number back, there was no ring tone, just an automated message saying the voicemail was full. If that was really BT, I’d expect an official company message.

Got a call from some young bloke, was thinkin of messing with him a bit but then figured why bother. Told him to jog on and would you believe he phoned me again!!! Left a message calling me bloody butch, so I've gone ahead and reported it to the Information Commissioner https://ico.org.uk/for-the-public/thanks. Do the same, folks, to put an end to these pest calls. Report them under sales calls and with enough complaints, maybe they’ll shut them down.

Just got a call from this number. Some woman with a Pakistani accent said she was from BT tech support. BT’s helpline is free, no way would they charge you like this. I remember using their service ages ago when I first got BT internet. She said there was an issue with my connection and I needed to update my antivirus. I told her it sounded like rubbish straight away. When I asked if she was actually from BT, she just cut the call.

My wife got a call about all this stuff, and it really upset her a lot. It’s worrying since not everyone is as cautious as she is. BT and other internet companies need to be way more careful to prevent this. It feels like the same issue keeps popping up again and again. Why aren’t we learning from it and putting proper measures in place to block these annoying scam calls? I’m concerned these scammers or whoever’s backing them are getting smarter than the providers. PLEASE, SORT THIS OUT NOW!

Just had a weird pair of calls - first a bloke who was impossible to understand, then a woman a couple of hours later asking if I recognised her. When I told her it was a scam (cos I’d already checked the number on this site), she called me a b**** and hung up. What’s really concerning is how they seemed to know I’d just got a new router from BT. Is someone inside BT leaking our personal details to these scammers, or were they just incredibly lucky both times?

This number just rang me - guy with a thick Pakistani accent, could hardly make out what he was saying. Tried to convince me to fix something on my computer, said he was from BT. When I told him I don’t use BT, he goes, "are you a b##ch?" Well, yeah, I’m a total b#tch when it comes to dodgy calls from these Pakistani scammers.

WATCH OUT!!!! Received a call today from an Asian woman claiming there was an issue with my BT internet. I told her I actually use Sky, not BT, and that was the end of that call. Shortly after, an Indian man rang me, saying he was from Sky and even mentioned my account number. He said he needed to check my PC and asked me to press Ctrl + R, which opened a box at the bottom left of my screen. Then he told me to clear the box and press Ctrl + J, which led me to a site called [#]teamviewer. That’s when I got suspicious and said so, and he quickly hung up!

Got another call from someone pretending to be the BT Tech team, telling me to log into my computer. When I told them I didn’t even own one, the bloke just laughed, said he couldn’t believe it, and then hung up. It gave me a bit of a chuckle, but it’s really sad how many people fall for these scams.

Just got a call like this too - the lady told me my computer was being hacked. I asked her (her name was Nancy) if she was ringing from India, and she said no, she was calling from London. Looking back, I wish I’d asked for more details like exactly where in London or even the street. We got off lightly, but loads of others will get scammed and end up out of pocket. I reckon these calls are being forwarded from India to Birmingham or somewhere local. BT, you seriously need to sort this mess out ASAP.

Today I got a call from a guy with an Indian accent saying he was from BT. He told me my broadband router was showing error alerts and asked if I was by my computer. I asked for his number and after a few minutes he gave me 00441793596931. I told him I’d call back, then just hung up. I never rang back! Tried to find a BT fraud number but couldn’t locate one. So I ended up contacting ACTION FRAUD on 0300 123 2040. If you receive a call like this, definitely report it!

Got a call from an Indian lady about problems with my router sending errors to their server. 1) I’m not a BT customer, 2) BT never cold calls. It’s a scam to try and access your computer then ask for money before deleting your files. They’re using a UK phone number but it’s not legit. Someone should write to their MP to make sure companies giving out UK numbers to scammers get prosecuted for fraud!

0121 44553137 - got a call from someone claiming to be Peter from BT tech support. Said there was a problem with my BT router or something like that. I just let him ramble on for about 15 minutes before telling him i’m not a BT customer. Then he started asking why i was wasting his time and told me to f##k off, fat b####h. And a load of other rude stuff i couldn’t properly catch because of his accent and the bad language. This could really upset elderly people. Blocked straight away!
