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.

6 yearsGot another annoying call today, probably the same person but using a different number this time. I just ended the call straight away.6 yearsThis 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.6 yearsShe 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! :-)BT6 yearsGot 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.Sky6 yearsGot 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!BT6 yearsThere'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.6 yearsSorry 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!6 yearsGot 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.BT6 yearsIf I ever catch them, I’ll make sure they regret it by putting their phone somewhere they definitely won’t like!6 yearsReceived multiple calls today from someone purporting to be from Openreach, insisting that our internet connection is at risk of being severed within 24 hours owing to a security issue. This has happened four times now. Interestingly, it seems my neighbour has encountered the same scenario. It was clear that the caller's accent was not English, possibly hinting at a Scottish origin?Openreach6 yearsAllegedly representing Virgin Media, they were on the line.Virgin Media6 yearsI tried ringing 01224 279574 from my mobile, but there was no response. Interestingly, we did get a call from that number on our landline.6 yearsI 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.6 yearsSo 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.Sky6 yearsGot 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!Amazon Prime6 yearsNot sure who it was, but the call ended as soon as I picked up.6 yearsSomebody 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.BT Openreach6 yearsGot 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.Virgin6 yearsTotal scam, don’t trust that number!Fraudster6 yearsHad an unknown number pop up, so I just blocked it straight away, pretty sure it was one of those scams.6 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be Virgin Media, saying there were some technical issues on my account. Definitely a scam, don’t trust these calls!Virgin Media6 yearsGot 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.Virgin Media6 yearsAnswered the phone with a foreign accent and they just immediately cut me off. Definitely a scam.6 yearsit's super annoying, they just keep calling again and again!6 yearsGot 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!Virgin6 yearsThey 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.Virgin Media6 yearsGot 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.Sky6 yearsThey were just making stuff up during the call; I've blocked the number now. Proper annoyance!6 yearsReceived yet another call purporting to be from Virgin Media, saying there’s an issue with my router. This marks the fourth time they’ve contacted me, albeit from a variety of different numbers each time! When I mentioned that I’d already had three similar calls today, the caller promptly hung up on me. Quite the nuisance, I must say!Virgin Media6 yearsI've received a call from this number as well. It's the third or fourth time today that someone has rung me up purporting to be from Virgin Media. They always seem to disconnect as soon as I ask them a question. Quite frustrating!Virgin Media6 yearsThey called claiming to be from Virgin, saying I was experiencing some kind of technical issue. Then they asked if I was currently using my computer.Virgin6 yearsGot 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.Submit Your Own Report (01224 279574)
