Blocked immediately!8 yearsThis morning, I've received several calls on my landline, but as soon as the answering machine starts, the caller just hangs up. The number isn't familiar at all - definitely not someone from my family or mates - and there’s nothing similar in my contacts from Birmingham. Pretty odd!Birmingham8 yearsThis number keeps ringing me but theres no 1 ever there when i answer.8 yearsHad two rings this morning. The first one, no voice when I picked up. The second time, a man with an Indian accent claimed to be from BT about my internet. He wanted to get into my computer to fix something. When I pressed him for proof he was actually from BT, he couldn’t provide any details. I asked if he thought I was daft, and he just called me an idiot before hanging up. Definitely a scam, so watch out.BT8 yearsHad a call on my landline, which is registered with TPS, from a guy speaking with an Indian accent claiming to be from BT Openreach. I don’t even use BT for my internet. He said my connection was being used by others. I told him that didn’t seem legit and asked for a contact number, which he gave as 0800 800 5902. I said I’d ring back later to check if it was real, and he agreed. Definitely not in any rush to call that number myself to see if it’s genuine or not.Telephone Preference ServiceBT OpenreachBT8 yearsThis number has been ringing me non-stop.
