Phone number ☎️ 01216729282 👆 is reported as a highly persistent scam posing as TalkTalk technical support, often with Indian-accented callers claiming router or internet issues. Victims frequently receive multiple calls daily, some becoming aggressive or rude. Callers attempt to gain remote access to computers or request sensitive information like bank or national insurance details. Many report hang-ups or silent calls if questioned.

9 yearsI think I just got hit by one of those TALKTALK scam calls. Seriously, be careful! They managed to control my laptop remotely after ringing me up. I’ve already told ActionFraud about what happened (that’s the UK’s official fraud and cyber crime reporting body). If you’ve had calls like this or get one in the future, make sure you report it so they can look into it properly. Stay safe out there!TALKTALKActionFraudUK9 yearsGot a ring from a woman with an Indian accent claiming she was calling from Talk Talk. Said a tech guy was ready to sort out my computer, but it seemed fishy to me. The number showed was 01216729282. Then just today, some bloke named Steven, also Indian, phoned up asking the exact same thing. I told him to stop calling and gave him back the number he tried from, 01213179829. Definitely a scam.Steven9 yearsMy missus picked up the call and this bloke with an Indian accent just went straight to telling her to "shut up". Proper rude, that was!9 yearsToday at 10.43am I got a call from this number. Like others have said, a man claiming to be from TalkTalk told me my router was infected and would be switched off in 24 hours. When I asked why the wait, he couldn’t give a clear answer. I said I’d report it to my IT team and ring TalkTalk directly on a different number to confirm. After that, they just hung up. Honestly, I don’t see what the point was!TalkTalk9 yearsI've been bombarded with over 50 calls weekly from TalkTalk scammers. I'm quitting them for good and not even bothering to keep my number, since TalkTalk won't help me change it or fix the problem. I’m totally fed up with the constant harassment. I’ve had to unplug my phone just to avoid the endless scam calls, which makes me feel anxious and cut off, especially since I’m registered disabled because of my mental health problems. It's been really tough not being able to reach out to anyone when I need support.TalkTalk9 yearsI keep getting loads of calls from different numbers, even though I keep blocking them. They always switch up the digits. Best thing I've found is to look them up on here first before you pick up, then if it looks dodgy you can block it straight away!9 yearsGot a call from someone claiming my talk talk internet was screwed, i told em its sorted but theres mess everywhere and pay up as promised. Then they just hung up! What a load of b*****ks. Talk Talk never calls out of the blue, they’re tricky enough to get through to without random calls like that. Total scammers.TalkTalk9 yearsI didn’t even ask anything, just warned him straight up that if I ever tracked him down, he’d be in big trouble. The voice sounded Indian and from what I’ve been through before, it seemed like someone pretending to be from Talktalk. I’m going to report this number to Talktalk so they can block it for all their customers if they confirm it’s a scam. Anyone with a Talktalk line should really make sure to report these dodgy calls directly to them.Talktalk9 yearsSo this person called my 82 year old grandma saying they could help stop all the annoying cold calls. They said it was a free service but then asked for her bank info, address and even her national insurance number! Seemed pretty dodgy to me.National Insurance9 yearsDefinitely a con artist.9 yearsSo, my missus got a call from a bloke with an Indian accent saying there was some issue with our internet, something about someone in California using it. There was loads of background noise like a call centre. He told me to open up Google and check some info. I asked him to say my name, and he just went back to his script. I ended the call right away. Total scammer, what a muppet!CaliforniaGoogle9 yearsOn 1st June 2017, I got a call from a bloke with a very English-sounding name but his accent was proper thick Indian. He claimed to be from TalkTalk tech support or summat. When I said "How wonderful," he just hung up straight away. Sounded like he was reading off some script.9 yearsSomeone called pretending to be from TalkTalk. I've already flagged it as a scam.TalkTalk9 yearsHow long are we gonna put up with these parasites? All these quangos and ombudsman bodies and still no one does anything about these con artists. Talk Talk just wastes our time!9 yearsI didnt pick up, and the call stopped right before the voicemail could even start.9 yearsToday I got a call from this same number, some bloke said he was from TalkTalk, warning me my internet was going to be cut off for 15 days, starting in 24 hours, cos my phone had supposedly been hacked. I actually had a similar call yesterday but from a separate number. I’ve blocked and reported both already. What’s mad is my mate got SIX of these calls all in one night!TalkTalk9 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be with TalkTalk about an issue with my internet. I let them chat for a bit, then told them exactly what I thought - called him out for trying to con hardworking folks. You could hear people talking in the background, sounded like a proper call centre, but it’s all just recordings. Don’t get tricked, if you have any doubts just hang up and ring TalkTalk yourself.TalkTalk9 yearsThese calls are the worst, always leaving me with silence and feeling really on edge. Had the same happen twice in just a couple of days.9 yearsGot a call at 9:35 from a guy named Stephen who had a foreign accent. He said he was ringing from TalkTalk and told me my internet was running slow, offering to fix it for me. When I asked how he even knew about my internet speed, he just stuck to his usual spiel. Then he began telling me what steps to take, but I told him that’s not how things work here, and he just hung up on me.StephenTalkTalk9 yearsThis isn't just spam, it's a proper SCAM! They started off with "good morning, this is TalkTalk", but don't trust it at all.9 yearsThey ring me up, then just cut the call straight away. Really annoying!9 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be TalkTalk. They wanted me to check my router, but the accent was definately foreign. Told them I'd call them back later.TalkTalk9 yearsI got a call from an Indian lady claiming to be from BT Technical Support, telling me that there was an attempt from California to hack into my IP address.BT Technical SupportCalifornia9 yearsI received a call from someone claiming to be from Talk Talk, stating that there was an engineer ready to guide me through some computer issues I wasn't even aware of. Is this a legitimate Talk Talk support line? I've been bombarded with around four calls from this same number. Cheers!Talk9 yearsThey called saying they were from Talk Talk but it was just a scam. Don't trust these people!9 yearsGot a call at 9:49 and all I could hear was silence.9 yearsGot a ring from this number just a few minutes back. Honestly, I’ve stopped picking up any calls I don't recognise. If it’s important, leave a voicemail, simple as that. But these clever nuisance callers have caught on - they wait till the phone asks for a message, then cut off straight away. So now, even if I don’t pick up, no messages come through either. I’m listed ex-directory and signed up for the telephone preference service, but it’s no use at all. I get like half a dozen calls daily from them. Proper annoying!9 yearsThis morning at about 8:15, I got a call from 01216729282. The person sounded Indian and claimed to be calling from BT technical support, but then they just hung up on me.BT9 yearsTalkTalk called me and asked how I was doing today. I just ended the call, but honestly, it got on my nerves.9 yearsGot a call from someone with an Asian accent claiming there were problems with BT servers and internet proxy issues. I just responded with "Oh yeah?" and they immediately ended the call - definitely a scam.BT9 yearsWatch out, these lot are just trying to get into your computer, total scam.9 yearsThey ring me daily, but I have no clue who it is. I usually let it go straight to voicemail, and then they just end up hanging up.9 yearsI got a call from a lady saying she was from Talk Talk (I actually have BT). She warned me my internet would be disconnected in a couple of days because apparently I’d been visiting 'unauthorised websites' or something. She wanted me to be in front of my computer, but I said I was tied up. She rang again the following day, but as soon as she said hello, I just hung up and blocked her number straight away.BT9 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Indian accent saying she was from Talktalk. She actually used my name, so I reckon she had info from a data breach or something. Definitely seemed like a dodgy scam to me.TalkTalk9 yearsGot a call claiming to be from Virgin asking about the number of lights showing on my router. I said something daft like 482. They hung up straight away!Virgin9 yearsI’m seriously annoyed with these nonstop calls, it’s like they never end. Surely there’s some method to block them once and for all. Today, someone called saying she was Nancy Wilson from Talk Talk, but she was actually from India.Nancy WilsonIndia9 yearsGot another call about supposed issues with my router, turned really pushy so I just ended the call.9 yearsGot a call from 01216729282 claiming they were from TalkTalk, said my internet was all messed up and needed to do some checks.

Pretty sure it was a dodgy scam trying to catch me out.9 yearsI was working from home and picked up the phone, giving my name right away. The person on the other end just disconnected straight away. I've since activated the block feature for that number so hopefully they won’t bother me or fake being from Talk Talk once more.TalkTalk9 yearsCalled me and the moment I answered, they just ended the call. Total spam.9 yearsThey call me every morning, right? I pick up and all I get is some robot voice saying goodbye. If this is supposed to be TalkTalk, what even is that about? We’re not even their customers! Total scam if you ask me!9 yearsI received a call from a woman with an Indian accent claiming to be from TalkTalk.

When I asked her why she needed access, she abruptly ended the call.9 yearsGot a call from 01216729282 around 9.41am today but there was total silence on the other end. Weird.9 yearsthis morning, got a ring from a woman who sounded indian, claiming to be with talktalk wanting to chat about my internet. i wasnt having any of it and told her i knew it was dodgy before hanging up. since i’m with talktalk, i switched on call id and found out you can block a number by dialling 44258 and pressing star two times, which blocks that caller.TalkTalk9 yearsThey called and told me to switch on any gadgets that connect to the internet to protect myself. I told them I’d ring my own provider to confirm, then they just ended the call.9 yearsI picked up but all I got was silence, then they just hung up saying “goodbye”.

They kept pushing for my bank details - no way was I falling for that!TalkTalk9 yearsI got a call from my number, but they quickly dropped the call.
