Reports on phone number 01218170539
5 yearsThis guy was a total nightmare, going on about being from BT and saying my copper wires should've been changed 4 years ago, like I was supposed to know that. I asked for his number so I could check with BT who he was, but he wasn’t bothered at all. Honestly, these folk are the worst kind of pest and BT really need to sort them out ASAP and put a stop to this constant hassling of businesses.BT5 yearsGot a call from someone named Sean, claiming he was with BT wholesale. He said our copper lines were going to be disconnected soon. Didn’t feel right, seemed like a scam to me. Before hanging up, he booked a visit from a consultant from some company called HiiCom or something along those lines. Pretty sure I’ve figured out where that call came from!SeanBT WholesaleHiiCom5 yearsThe person claimed to be with 'BT' but seemed to have really old details about our business and came across a bit pushy. As soon as I wouldn't give a new contact, they just ended the call. Pretty clear this wasn’t legit.BT5 yearsReceived a call from someone saying they were BT, talking about old copper phone lines. They kept asking for the MD of the firm. Bit suspicious, if you ask me.BT5 yearsHad a call from someone claiming to be BT, proper rude bloke when i refused to connect him to a director. What a knobhead!BT5 yearsI got a call from this number earlier, with the person saying they were from BT Openreach. They said there was a disconnection warning and that our phone line would get cut off in 90 days. When I wouldn't hand him over to the right person, he got pretty annoyed. Lucky for me, I work in telecoms, so I called him out on where he was really from and told him my line isn't going anywhere. He said he didn’t appreciate my tone and hung up saying he’d try again later. Don’t get fooled by these tactics - always check directly with your own provider.BT Openreach5 yearsSean, claiming to be from BT, has been calling off and on for ages - what a proper scammer. Today, he finally spoke to our office manager, but when she asked for his full name and his connection to BT, he just told her to call him whatever and then abruptly ended the call. Such a dodgy character!SeanBT5 yearsProper decent bloke, sorted me out straight away. We’re planning to move over with their help.5 yearsI got a call, asked if Antoinette was available, and when they said no such person there, they just hung up on me. Total scam alert!Antoinette5 yearsWhen they asked me to leave a message, I just hung up straightaway.5 yearsSomeone rang up looking for one of the directors, but the moment they saw they weren’t going to get any info, they just dropped the call. This has scam written all over it. Don’t trust those good reviews you see here - anyone can post something to make it look trustworthy.5 yearsGot a call from this number today, some bloke called Steve saying he’s from BT about my copper line. I chatted with him for a good 10 minutes, but he turned proper annoyed when I refused to connect him to the company MD. Bit of a strange one, really.BTSteve5 yearsGot a call from BT Wholesale about some old lines we still have. They set up an appointment for next week to give us a free upgrade. The person on the phone was really friendly and explained everything clearly.BT Wholesale5 yearsI've been getting calls from some dodgy telecom firm claiming they're BT. It's total rubbish, and definitely not a company you can believe. Stay clear of them!BT5 yearsI got a call from Ben at BT who wanted to talk to the MD about our phone lines. He was quite courteous and took his time to explain that the old phone lines are scheduled for an upgrade. He seemed genuinely worried about making sure we don’t lose our service. I looked it up on BT Openreach’s website afterwards, and it appears he was spot on. Business phone lines across the UK are set to be switched over by 2025, but some areas will start switching before then as he mentioned.BenBTBT OpenreachUK5 yearsSome bloke from BT rang asking to speak to the Director, claimed they were upgrading our line and wanted to 'offer' me some handsets that would work with it. I told him cheers but I’d get in touch with BT myself if I need anything, and he got a bit rude about it. When I said we only have two handsets, he said I’d have to have at least three to qualify. Told him no worries, I’ll buy extras if I ever do need them. What a load of muppets.BT5 yearsGot a call from someone calling themselves Sean claiming to be from BT, saying they'd be cutting off our phone line because we're switching to fibre. When I asked for an email confirmation, he said it was pointless and refused. Sounds like a total scam to me.SeanBT5 yearsGot a dodgy call that didn’t ring true, so I asked them to send me a confirmation email - nothing showed up at all.5 yearsJust got a call from BT Openreach, they wanted to check which system I’m using because there were some planned switch offs coming up. Quite an odd call but they seemed pretty serious about needing the info.BT Openreach5 yearsJust got a dodgy call pretending to be from BT, they were asking for the company’s CEO. Total scam alert!BT5 yearsGot a call from BT Business wanting to check which systems we have so they could pitch an upgrade from our outdated setup.BT Business5 yearsI had a call that said it was from BT or something like that, but I'm not too sure if they were legit.BT5 yearsJust got a call from 01218170539 claiming to be from BT saying they’re offering fibre here. Thing is, our place doesn’t have fibre and won’t have it anytime soon. Don’t trust these lot if they say they’re from BT and pushing fibre. The actual BT confirmed to me this is a scam, so beware, they’re definitely not legit.BT5 yearsGot a call from 01218170539 earlier claiming to be from BT about switching our old copper line to fibre and that it was being disconnected. I rang BT directly and spoke with a lovely woman named Sam who checked the number and confirmed it was a scam. They’re just trying to push something unnecessary. Sam told me she’d report it to BT’s security team and reminded me that genuine BT calls always come from 0800 numbers. So just watch out and don’t fall for those pretending to be BT!BTSam5 yearsHad a call from BT regarding the older system we’ve got, said it should be switched out. The person on the phone was really patient and nice about it all. They’ve arranged for a consultant to visit next week to discuss the switchover options.BT5 yearsThey claimed to be from BT but seemed clueless about the kind of lines we use. Felt like they were just fishing for info. I reckon they pass our details onto VoIP companies who then bug us about upgrading our phone systems. Proper annoying!BTVoIP5 yearsHad a call from someone saying they were from BT, but you could tell straight away it wasn't legit. The person on the other end was really unpleasant too. No clue what they wanted.BT5 yearsGot switched to fibre by BT wholesaler from our old setup, and we ended up saving quite a bit of cash too!BT5 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be with BT, but didn't catch his name. He was asking loads about our phone lines and some old copper wires. Felt a bit dodgy to me since he said he was from BT but struggled to answer basic questions about our setup. Definitely seemed off.BT5 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be with BT, saying they were upgrading copper lines. I was pretty firm that I wasn’t going to confirm or agree to anything with a cold caller. They got really rude and aggressive, then just snapped at me with something like “I don’t want to deal with you” before slamming the phone down. Such bad manners!BT5 yearsDon’t get tricked - this ain’t BT ringing you. It’s some random telecom outfit trying to scare you into thinking they’ll disconnect your old phone lines unless you switch to ISDN. They kept saying they’re linked to BT and Openreach but it’s just a scare tactic.BTISDNOpenreach5 yearsGot a call saying they were from BT, offering to upgrade my phone lines, which BT have already sorted ages ago! This was the second call from them, and now they claimed to be from a local office, but the number showed up as over 70 miles away. They also warned me I’d lose my fax service for a few hours. Feels dodgy, like they’re just trying to trick you into switching providers, hoping you haven’t actually upgraded your ISDN yet. Don’t fall for it. Just say you’ll ring back and then check with BT yourself if you’re unsure.BT5 yearsgot a call from someone called sean, said he was with bt, sounded a bit off tho, he said he was 22 or something like that.SeanBT5 yearsClaimed to be from BT, but used a really vague name when I asked who they wanted to speak to. Said they had an email for the company but it sounded made up, the sort of generic address someone might invent. Tried to get me to give info but wasn’t keen on giving the real email. Feels like a scam or some sort of spam call.BT5 yearsThe caller claimed to be from BT but seemed clueless about any phone-related stuff.BT5 yearsReceived a call at our place from a guy named Shaun, he said if the owner didn’t get in touch, the phone line would be disconnected. The bloke was quite rude to the staff too.ShaunSubmit Your Own Report (0121 817 0539)
