Got a call from someone claiming to be with a Telecom firm, asking how many phones we have. I told them we don’t share that kind of info and ended the call. But then they kept calling over and over until I finally answered again. I told them straight up that I’m not giving out any details and told them to quit ringing me!

Someone from Telecoms Research rang me saying they were from BT and that they weren’t trying to scam anyone. They said they were just calling to update people about the analogue switch-off and wanted to gather some info. I told them I wasn’t happy sharing my details and asked them not to call again. But then, less than ten minutes later, they rang back with another caller. I told them it’s against the law to keep calling when asked to stop. They said goodbye nicely and ended the call.

They only managed to say "BT analogue switch off..." before I just cut the call, and that was the end of it! These types of calls really are such a pointless hassle.

Someone called me claiming to be conducting a survey for BT regarding the phase-out of old phone lines. It honestly felt a bit dodgy, like they were just trying to trick me into giving away info.

Somebody rang up saying they were collecting info about the ISDN shutdown. We don’t even use ISDN, so I made up some owner details, how many handsets we have, and an email address. Afterwards, I blocked the number and reported it.

I keep getting calls from this Telecoms Research Group but they always ring me from loads of different numbers. They keep asking how many phones our firm has, probably trying to drum up leads for the new telecom switch that's on the horizon. But here's the thing - from what I found out through Companies House, that company officially closed down in March 2024! When I asked the call centre to take me off their list, the operator insisted they needed to enter my contact details first, claiming that's the only way to remove me. Nope, that doesn't fly with me or BT.

Got a call from someone saying they were from Insights Research about the BT ISDN shutdown. They asked for the business address, how many phones we use, and who owns the business before hanging up.

Got a call from someone saying they were from Insights and needed to send a survey via email to confirm our business details. I told her right away I’m not interested in filling it out, so no need to bother sending it, but she just carried on, saying she’d email it anyway and talked over me when I tried to say no again. Really impatient and pushy behaviour, felt like a total scam.

Got a ring from a call centre, the bloke said his name was Harvey. Said he was conducting an Insight Survey about the ASDL switchover that's on the horizon. He wanted to verify company info that’s already public, but then started asking for stuff that isn’t public, like how many staff we have and how many phones are used. I told him we don’t share that sort of data as company rules. He got really pushy, kept interrupting me while I was speaking. Eventually, I just ended the call.

Got a call from someone named "Jet" who said they were doing market research and asked loads of questions about my business, the directors, and how many phones we use. They mentioned it was about the "PSTN Switch off," which sounded like a typical ploy to push a VOIP service. I just kept replying with "That's confidential" to everything. Then they said they were gathering info to see how ready the country is. I told them I wasn’t bothered and didn’t want to get involved. They ended the call pretty quickly after that.

Someone rang me claiming to be from some Telecom Research group about the BT ISDN shutdown, wanting to update their info. They asked for the MD’s contact details, our email, and even how many phone lines we use. It seemed like a sales tactic to me, just fishing for info to pitch stuff later. Once I told them we’re already an IT/telecoms company, they ended the call pretty quick.

Got loads of calls from these scammers, they keep asking how many phones we own using the same script. Proper annoying because as soon as I ended the call, they'd ring back right away. They kept insisting it wasn’t a sales call and were desperate to get info. Claimed they were from something called the Telecom Research Commission.

I received a call from someone claiming to be a telecoms researcher, but I couldn't take it while I was busy at work. When I tried to ring back later, an automated response informed me it was indeed them. I've decided to block the number altogether.

They rang me about some update to the phone records cos apparently the ISDN lines are being switched off. They already had a bunch of my info and kept pushing me to confirm it with a "yes." They just wouldn’t stop going over the same stuff. Ended up saying no nicely.

A couple of times I've had calls from these clowns saying they're from the Telephone Liaison Office or something similar, claiming they need to 'update' my phone details. Don't buy it for a second! They’ve tried this before, it’s definitely a dodgy scam.

They were trying to get our BT account info, which they had no right to ask for. Thing is, we don’t even use BT, so it was pretty obvious from the phone call and their approach that it was a con.

Received a call inquiring about our workplace. They asked for some rather confidential details but refused to provide their email, which left us uneasy about revealing the requested information. We eventually cut the conversation short as they continued to press for the same sensitive details. Quite peculiar, to say the least.
