01224279574 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01224279574 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance involving scam calls claiming to be from major UK broadband providers such as BT, Sky, Virgin Media, or Openreach. Callers frequently request remote access to users' computers under the pretext of checking internet speed or fixing technical faults. The calls often originate from overseas call centres, with a noticeable accented English, and tend to become evasive or hang up when challenged. Multiple numbers are used to bypass blocking, with some calls featuring silence or automated recorded messages. Users are strongly advised not to cooperate, avoid pressing any keys if prompted by recorded messages, and be cautious of unsolicited technical support calls, as legitimate providers do not request remote access without prior verification.

Got another annoying call today, probably the same person but using a different number this time. I just ended the call straight away.

This number keeps calling me every day, but when I answer, no one’s there, just silence. I tried ringing it back without showing my number, but I never got an answer.

She wanted me to enter [#]anydesk, but I said if she was really from BT, why wasn't there a BT website opening? Then she just hung up on me. Honestly, these chats are priceless. I reckon I wasted a good five minutes of their time, which made my day! :-)

Got a call from someone claiming to be Sky, saying they wanted to test our internet speed. They asked me to get on my PC or laptop, which I found a bit odd. When I mentioned Sky isn't our internet provider, the person said they actually work with our internet supplier and were doing checks for Openreach. It all sounded pretty convincing at first, but when I kept questioning them, the line just went dead.

Got loads of calls in just one hour from all sorts of numbers, all saying they were from BT. Definitely a scam, probably some call centre based in India. Very suspicious!

There's always a wait before the call centre's auto-dial connects. The caller, speaking with an Asian accent, was clearly trying to scam. I just replied, "From the ambulance team, is the patient still breathing?" and then they hung up straight away.

Sorry about the last comment, it was a bit risky. Didn’t mean to cause any trouble. Just wanted to share my experience quickly. Thanks for understanding!

Got a call from what claimed to be BT, but sounded like some scammy call centre in India. I called them out on it, and they just cut the line straight away.

If I ever catch them, I’ll make sure they regret it by putting their phone somewhere they definitely won’t like!

Got a call from someone saying they were with Openreach, warning me my internet would be cut off in a day because of some security issue. They rang me four times today alone. My neighbour also got the same call earlier. The voice definitely wasn't local English, maybe Scottish?

When I rang 01224 279574 from my mobile, there was no reply. Interestingly, the call showed up on our home phone instead.

I called about my BT Openreach router being super slow. The person I spoke to kept dodging the questions I asked and just stuck to whatever script they had. After a while, I just told them straight up I don’t even use BT Openreach. They couldn’t really help beyond that.

So this guy from Sky tech support called, moaning about my broadband being rubbish and asking to get into my computer. I played along and kept him on the phone for like 15 minutes acting like I was logging in. He sounded proper annoyed when I suddenly blasted an airhorn down the phone! Bet his ears are ringing now.

Got a voicemail from someone saying they were Amazon Prime. I don’t even subscribe to them! It told me to press 1, which I bet was some expensive number. Definitely a scam, so don’t press anything!

Not sure who it was, but the call ended as soon as I picked up.

Somebody called saying they were from BT Openreach, said they wanted to test my internet speed. They asked me to log onto my computer for them to check it, which felt a bit off. When I asked a few questions, the bloke got kinda annoyed and kept insisting I follow their steps. Seemed dodgy to me, as I’m sure real providers can easily test speed without needing to get into your gear like that. Total scam in my opinion.

Got a call from someone saying they were with Virgin. When I asked for the account holder's name, they couldn’t answer and just ended the call. Definitely a scammer.

Got called supposedly from Virgin Media a few times today, at least four times in total. Each time it was a different number but they kept saying exactly the same thing. Bit odd really.

it's super annoying, they just keep calling again and again!

Got calls from 'Virgin' several times today, using different numbers each time. They must reckon if you ring back a different number, it’ll seem legit. What a bunch of crooks!
Virgin

They said they were from Virgin Media and called me from like three different numbers all in the same day. They mentioned some TV advert about issues with their service and told me to enter eventvwr on my Windows PC. Pretty sure they were trying to get access to my computer or something. I just played along for ages and kept them talking for about half an hour, was quite amusing actually.

Got a call from someone claiming to be Sky about broadband issues, but the moment I questioned them about my account info, they just ended the call. Total scammer.

They were just making stuff up during the call; I've blocked the number now. Proper annoyance!

Somebody pretending to be from Virgin Media kept calling about a supposed issue with my router. This is the fourth time they've phoned me today, but each call came from a different number. When I mentioned I’d already had three calls like that earlier, the person just hung up on me.

This number has been ringing me a few times today, I think it’s the third or fourth. They say they’re from Virgin Media but when I start asking questions they just cut the call off. Proper irritating!

Got a call from 01224 279574 this morning at around 8:53. The person had a thick accent and kept saying ‘Isa’. Claimed to be from some sort of tech department or whatever, just rambling on nonsense.
