9 yearsGot a call from someone trying to sell a discount on calls and landline bills. They asked for my debit card info to fix it up since we’re set up with direct debit. I said no way and they shoved me over to a ‘supervisor’. Told them again I wasn’t sharing any details. They kept pushing really hard. I offered to confirm the number if they read it out to me, but they said they couldn’t, which seemed dodgy. They only had the first four digits of the card, which I reckon is kinda standard once the bank’s confirmed? Took the call for my 92-year-old mum. Proper nasty scammers, honestly.10 yearsThis afternoon, I had a rather dodgy phone call from a woman with an Indian accent, who said she was from the BT Accounts team. I found her claims hard to swallow, so I decided to end the conversation abruptly.BT Accounts10 yearsHad a couple of calls today from someone claiming to be from the so-called British Telecom department. The person, sounded like an Asian woman or man, was offering a discount on my phone calls and line rental. I told them I didn’t know who they were at all. When asked what my first initial meant, I shot back, “If you’re really from there, you should already know that!” After I said I was Jacob, the caller just hung up on me. Typical!British TelecommunicationsAdamJacob10 yearsJust got a call like this too, guy was asking for my debit card number to sort out some refund or something. I told him he would need my bank account details for that, but I wasn’t about to give him any of that info. Told him he had all his facts mixed up. Then he started pretending to be a 'Supervisor' or whatever. I’ve gone ahead and blocked that number now.10 yearsMissed their call, by the time I grabbed my phone they had already hung up. Checked this website and it's clear they're on a proper scam spree today. Hopefully, they'll give me another shout - when they do, I’m gonna let them know that everyone’s wise to their tricks.10 yearsAs soon as I picked up, the line went dead - sounded like one of those automated call centres.10 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Indian accent claiming she was 'Julie' from BT or something, but as if my name's Patel! Total rubbish.JulieBTPatel10 yearsSome bloke, sounded Asian, called up saying he had to get my info for a BT discount - yeah right, as if I’m Mary Berry!AsiaMary Berry10 yearsGot a call from a lady, called Crystal, sounded Asian, she said she wanted to check my details and said I’d get an email explaining a refund for three months’ line rental plus free calls. Then she handed me over to a bloke named Adam, who said he was a supervisor. When they asked for my card details, I said no and they just hung up on me.CrystalAdam10 yearsHad it happen to me as well, got two calls in just 20 minutes! I told them where to go straight away. What really blows my mind is that BT must’ve handed this number over to someone, so they should be able to find out who’s behind it and deal with these con artists proper.BT10 yearsJust like others have said, some woman with an Asian accent rang me, claiming to be from BT, offering free line rental and discounts on calls. She asked me to confirm my name and postcode, but all the info she had was wrong. She then asked me to give her my details but I wasn’t having any of it and told her to check their info before ringing me again. I don’t even use BT services, so it’s weird. Does BT even know their name’s being used like this, or is it some kind of dodgy sales tactic?BT10 yearsToday, I got two calls, once around half past 10 in the morning and another about quarter to 2 in the afternoon. Both times, as soon as I picked up, they just hung up straight away.10 yearsI've received calls from this number twice now, and both times they've just hung up as soon as I picked up. Quite frustrating, really!10 yearsGot a call from an Asian woman trying to pitch some new BT service deal. She wanted me to answer loads of questions. I just told her to send the details in writing instead, and she just ended the call on me.10 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be BT, saying they wanted to tell me about some updates. I told them straight away it sounded like a scam since I don't actually have any BT services.BT10 yearsI got a call from a woman with an accent saying she was calling from B.T., offering free line rental and calls. When I asked her to email me the information, she just ended the call. Seems a bit dodgy to me.British Telecom10 yearsGot a call from an Asian bloke claiming he worked for BT. Complete con! He tried to get my debit card details, pretending to give me some sort of refund. Not a chance!!BT10 yearsI got a call from an Asian woman claiming she was from BT, saying there was an offer for 3 months of rental on 3 lines with a 10% discount. When she wanted my info I asked her what address appeared on her screen. She gave me some made-up address that didn’t sound right at all. I just ended the call there.BT10 yearsClaimed to be from BT, they did.BT10 yearsGot a call from a lady with an Asian accent, but honestly, I couldn’t make out a word she was saying.10 yearsGot a call from a lady with an Indian accent asking if I was the person who held the BT account.10 yearsSome bloke called just to say my computer's infected. I just told him to jog on and ended the call.10 yearsThis number has called me several times but never says a word when I pick up. Tried calling back too, but got nothing on the other end. Really don't understand what's going on here.Submit Your Own Report (01248 723554)
