01216842719 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01216842719 👆 is reported as a persistent scam originating from calls impersonating TalkTalk or BT. Callers claim the recipient’s internet or broadband service is compromised and threaten disconnection unless immediate action is taken, often instructing recipients to press numbers on their phone keypad. The calls frequently feature automated or pre-recorded messages, sometimes with foreign or American accents, and come from varying numbers which are unresponsive if called back. Users consistently report hanging up or blocking these numbers without engagement. Experts advise recipients not to respond or provide any personal information, as these are attempts to steal identity or account details. Legitimate providers would leave a clear voicemail and not demand urgent action via such calls.

7 yearsSomeone called saying they were with TalkTalk and told me my internet was hacked. They threatened to cut off my service if I didn’t follow their instructions!TalkTalk7 yearsI got a voicemail from an automated voice warning me that my phone would be cut off within a day. It mentioned suspicious hacking attempts and told me to contact BT straight away.BT7 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be from TalkTalk saying my internet and phone would be cut off today unless I hit 1 to sort it out. I just hung up straight away without saying a word - felt like a total scam to me.TalkTalk7 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from TalkTalk's tech team. They warned my internet would be disconnected soon if I didn’t ring back. The voice sounded like a robot ticking through the message. Definitely sounded dodgy to me.TalkTalk8 yearsGot a robo call claiming to be from BT warning my internet was about to get disconnected. They asked me to press 1 or 2, but I just hung up straight away. Total scam.BT8 yearsLooks like these scammers might’ve grabbed my number from some old TalkTalk list that’s definitely past its sell-by date. I’m curious what happens if you pick one of their options. I’m guessing if you press Option 1 to stop them cutting you off, they try to nick your ID and password. Choose Option 2 and I’d bet they want you to confirm your info before trying to scam you. Today their call showed up as coming from a legit phone number, but I’m pretty sure it’s faked. Tried calling back but no answer. Another one to add to my blocked numbers!Blimey8 yearsGot a call earlier saying my internet was gonna be disconnected today and that someone was trying to access my BT account. I contacted my service provider right away and they told me it was a scam. Glad I checked with them before doing anything!BT8 yearsI've just had automated calls from 01216842719 and 01762894287. They both played the same type of message others have mentioned here. Watch out as these are definitely scams!8 yearsLike a few others have said, I just ended the call straight away.8 yearsI just cut off the call as soon as the answering machine kicked in.8 yearsGot a call earlier today from a woman speaking with an American accent who said she was from Talk Talk. She warned me my internet would be disconnected unless I hit a specific number on my phone. It sounded dodgy so I just ended the call right away.

Definitely felt like a scam to me.8 yearsGot calls from loads of different numbers claiming to be from Talktalk. An American woman’s voice on a recorded message saying my internet’s about to get cut off. Hung up straight away, its so annoying. They’ve rung me twice just this past hour alone. Really fed up with these constant calls!Talktalk8 yearsGot a call earlier from BT, but it was one of those automated messages warning me my internet would get disconnected today. Pretty sure it was a scam!BT8 yearsGot a call from 0121 839 4271 today. I usually don’t pick up calls from numbers I don’t recognise, figured if it was important they’d leave a voicemail. Out of curiosity, I looked it up here and found out it's linked to scams pretending to be TalkTalk. Odd timing, since TalkTalk actually just upgraded my internet earlier this morning. Makes me wonder if their system’s still vulnerable or something sketchy going on!TalkTalk8 yearsGot a recorded call from a woman with an American accent, saying it was BT. I just hung up, didn’t pay attention after that.BT8 yearsThey said they were Talktalk but I really doubt it. I just ended the call and blocked the number straight away.Talktalk8 yearsI keep getting calls from this number and it’s really puzzling.

Anyone know what’s going on?8 yearsI got a call again from an American guy saying my internet was going to get cut off.Yank8 yearsGot a robo-call from someone claiming to be from TalkTalk, sounded like an American woman warning that my internet service would be disconnected.

I’m just blocking every one that comes through now.TalkTalk8 yearsWe got a call from someone pretending to be Talk Talk, trying to get us to hit a button on the phone.

I've gone ahead and blocked both now.Technical Department of Talk TalkSubmit Your Own Report (0121 684 2719)
