7 monthsI called back after the answering machine finished, even waited a bit to check if anyone would actually answer. Seems like these calls are all over the place, looking at other comments and seeing a couple from this same region code. I've now put this number on my block list since it feels dodgy.7 monthsGot a call on my landline from this number today, the lady claimed she was from my phone company. When I asked which provider it was, she said something like Stream Open Reach. Told her that’s not who I use and she just ended the call straight away. Definitely seemed like a scam to me.Stream Open Reach7 monthsPicked up the phone but the call just disconnected straight away, no voicemail or anything left behind.7 monthsGot a call today but they didn’t bother to leave any voicemail.7 monthsI reckon it's just another one of those dodgy phone company scams. They hung up after about a minute and didn’t even bother leaving a voicemail or anything.7 months01242350479 called me today. I’m usually careful about picking up numbers I don’t recognise, but because my mother-in-law isn’t well, I thought it might be the hospital. The caller said they were from “Telecom Services” and told me my direct debit had lapsed. They asked for my debit card info to sort it out. I told them we don’t use “Telecom Services” and you don’t need debit card details just to fix a direct debit. They got a bit rude and threatened to cancel my phone line. I just said “go ahead, then you won’t be able to hassle us or try to steal from us anymore.”Telecom Services8 months01242350479 JUST RANG ME WITH BULLSHIT...I AM X DIRECTORY...!!!8 monthsGot a call from this number but no message was left on my answerphone. Seems like a total scam to me.8 monthsGot a call from a telecom firm with an Asian accent, asking for my direct debit card’s expiry date to “update” it. I told them direct debits don’t work with cards and asked who the payment was for. He kept saying I owed BT, which I don’t. When I called him out as a scammer, he got really annoyed. Claimed he was calling from Manchester, but the number’s area code matches Gloucester, which is also a place in India oddly enough. Once he saw I wasn’t falling for it, he threatened to cut my phone off. I said go ahead, then he just hung up.BTManchesterGloucesterIndiaSubmit Your Own Report (01242 350479)
