8 yearsGot a call from some scammer again. Definitely stay clear of this number!8 yearsI got a call from a woman who claimed to be from BT, saying my internet was at risk from hackers. I asked her to prove she was really from BT by telling me my account number, which I had right there beside me. She suddenly got all nervous and told me she wasn’t allowed to share info over the phone. I just chuckled and hung up! :-DBT8 yearsGot a call from these lot claiming they were my phone provider, like TalkTalk or something. Total rubbish - they just ring out of the blue trying it on.TalkTalk8 yearsGot a call from someone with an Indian accent claiming to be from TalkTalk. He said there was an issue with my router and asked how many lights were blinking on it. When I told him I needed to check with my internet company first, he just hung up. Definitely a scam.TalkTalk8 yearsGot a call from some bloke claiming to be James Martin from Talktalk, saying there was an issue with my internet security. I told him I’m sick of these calls and just ended the call. Pretty sure it was another scam in disguise.James MartinTalktalk8 yearsGot a call from a guy with an Indian accent claiming to be calling from BT. He threw out a London address, an employee ID, and a name. I asked if I could get a direct number to call him back, and he provided an 0800 number. Seemed legit at first, but I wasn't completely convinced. After hanging up, I checked the number and it actually traces back to Chesterfield, nowhere near any BT office in London. Definitely feels like a scam to me.BTLondonChesterfield8 yearsBlocked a scam call today.8 yearsGot a call from an Indian guy asking if I'd been getting annoying calls. Told him yes, and he sounded proper miffed. Tough luck, I just ended the call. Honestly, don’t waste your time with these lot. If you’ve nothing better to do, I chuck the cordless phone in the dog’s bed - usually get some growling from the pooch and let the caller deal with that noise lol.8 yearsI got a call from this number, but it never got through my automated call filter, so I'm pretty sure it wasn’t a real person with a proper reason to ring me.8 yearsWhenever the landline rings, I just say "Microsoft Support here, what can I do for you?" Most times, they hang up quick enough. Works like a charm against those annoying calls. Bloody pests!Microsoft8 yearsThey called me two times today. The first time they just cut the call, and when I answered the second time, a recorded voice said “goodbye” and then ended the call. Quite strange!8 yearsMy phone just buzzed from a number I didn't know and there was no voicemail left, so I'm pretty sure it's just another scam call.8 yearsA man with an Indian accent called me a few days back, saying he was from BT Openreach. My partner quickly told him we were Virgin customers, not BT. Today, the same bloke phoned twice, this time saying he was Martin Lewis from Virgin Media’s internet team. He claimed my computer was sending error signals because I’d been visiting banned websites, and he needed to access my PC to sort it out. I told him I’d get in touch with Virgin Media directly to verify. When I did call Virgin, they confirmed they’d never contacted me and warned it was definitely a scam.BTVirginMartin LewisVirgin Media8 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be BT, telling me there was an issue with my internet.
