7 yearsI got a call from someone saying my internet was running slow and that they were with BT. I played along, listening to what they said. They asked me to open msconfig and switch on remote desktop or something like that. Pretty sure their plan was to get access to my PC remotely, probably to slip in some malware or a trojan to nick my bank info. So, I just kept them hanging and drags out the call, wasting their time. Lol, really think the authorities should look into these guys.BT7 yearsSo this guy Simon rang me up and got pretty upset when I joked he sounded more like Abdul who delivers my takeaway. We had a quick chat but then he started being quite rude. That’s when I warned him about what I’d do if he wasn’t hiding behind the phone. Honestly, looking forward to another call from Abdul… I mean Simon!SimonAbdul7 yearsClaimed to be from BT but I reckon it was a scam.BT7 yearsGot a call from a man with an Asian accent claiming to be from BT, saying he wanted to discuss my internet setup. But as soon as he found out I was just an answerphone, he cut off. Total scam, especially considering I don’t even have broadband with any provider!BT7 yearsMy mum's number got taken over by some tricksters! She’s getting bombarded with about 40 to 50 calls every single hour because people are using 1471 to check it. If you get a call from this number, just block it and ignore. Fingers crossed they’ll stop using her number for their scam calls pretty quickly :-(7 yearsThe call was pretty unclear, I couldn’t really tell what it was for. After checking out other comments, I’m guessing it’s probably a scam, so best to just give it a miss.7 yearsSo, I picked up the phone and just said hello, right? Then this robotic voice just goes and says goodbye like that. When I tried to ring back, it just ended the call straight away. Weird stuff.7 yearsGot a call from a guy with an Indian accent who told me there was something wrong with my BT broadband. Total nonsense though, I don’t even use BT for internet!BT7 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be with BT saying there were some issues. Problem is, I’m not even a BT customer. The woman’s accent was really thick and there was loads of noise like a busy call centre in the background, so I just ended the call. From what others have said here, it definitely looks like a scam.BT7 yearsGot a call from this number, some bloke with an Indian accent claiming to be from BT. Couldn't catch what he was on about, so I just ended up hanging up and blocked it straight away.7 yearsMy phone started ringing, so I picked up but there was no one talking, just some weird background sounds. Seemed like one of those scams, maybe?7 yearsI've got to share that this number belongs to my mum, and it's been taken over by some dodgy scammers! She's inundated with around 40 to 50 calls every hour from individuals using 1471 to trace it back. I urge everyone to steer clear of this number and ensure you block it! Fingers crossed, these con artists will give up on linking it to their shady calls before too long. It seems like they're mostly pretending to be from BT or Talk Talk, can you believe the cheek? 😟BT7 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Talk Talk, saying if I didn’t press 1 my internet would get disconnected. Totally sounded like a scam to me.7 yearsI got a recorded message from TalkTalk warning that my internet service was going to be disconnected.TalkTalk7 yearsI keep my landline unlisted too and hardly share it with strangers. It makes me think these scammers might have some sort of link to a BT worker who hands out numbers for them to ring from or use, since they manage to call from all over the UK. It’s really fishy how they always have different local numbers.BTUK7 yearsI haven’t got a call from this exact number claiming to be BT yet, but I’m convinced it’s bound to come through since I’ve had similar calls about BT broadband from loads of different numbers. This one’s definitely part of that lot. When I picked up a call earlier today from 02890207816, I bluntly said, “This must be a scam, right?” The bloke, who spoke with an Asian accent and said he was from BT, immediately slammed the phone down. I even heard him swear under his breath as the line cut off. What a muppet - totally blew his cover!BT7 yearsGot a call today from some Indian bloke claiming to be from BT Openreach, saying my internet’s running slow. Pretty obvious it’s a scam, especially since I’m actually with Virgin Media!BT OpenreachVirgin7 yearsgot a call from someone pretending to be bt internet saying my internet was running slow. I’m so sick of these scam calls, honestly. Seems like no one is really doing anything to stop them - wish there was a proper authority cracking down on this nonsense.7 yearsGot a call from a woman with a foreign accent claiming to be from BT Openreach about my internet. I told her I don’t even have broadband, but she just kept going. I called her out on being a scammer and asked if her family knew about this, and she just laughed, saying they were proud of her. It’s awful how these dodgy calls target vulnerable folks. They really need to put a stop to this nonsense.BT Openreach7 yearsGot a call from BT Openreach saying they checked my internet speed and it wasn’t right - which was odd cos I don’t even have BT broadband! I just ignored the call and thankfully it stopped after a while.BT OpenreachBT Broadband7 yearsThe call was so loud it actually made my ears hurt! It was pretty obvious it came from some call centre. The lady kept going on about BT dish or something. I just told her we weren’t interested and ended the call straight away.7 yearsReceived a call from 01252549442 and it turned out to be nothing but a nuisance!7 yearsI have no connection with BT yet they keep calling me, guess I’ve blocked their number now.BT7 yearsJust got a call from this number, some bloke with an Asian accent claiming he could make my internet faster. I asked what I needed to do, and he told me to sit next to the modem and he’d guide me through it. I said, “How about I ring the cops instead?” That’s when he started shouting all sorts of abuse, calling me a f****** old woman. If this was legit, they wouldn’t talk like that. My sister got the exact same call a few weeks back, so I was already wary. I’m on the secret number list and supposedly unlisted, so how on earth are they getting through?7 yearsThere was a bunch of noise, like people chatting really loudly, but no one said who they were before I ended the call. Definitely a scam. This call showed up just after I got one from 0212677548. Honestly, Gcha should track these idiots down and give them a proper good hiding!Gcha7 yearsIt felt dodgy, so I just ended the call.7 yearsThis bloke said he was ringing from BT Openreach, but that company hasn't been around for ages. When I asked if it was a cold call, he just slammed down the phone. Definitely dodgy!BT Openreach7 yearsThey called asking for my router info! Couldn't believe it, just seemed dodgy.7 yearsAnswered the call and he goes "how’s it going?" so I said “all good, you?” then out of nowhere he just blurts “screw you” back at me. Honestly, no idea what was just said, completely thrown off haha.7 yearsGot a call from a woman with a UK accent saying BT will be cutting off my broadband soon and to press 1 to talk. I just blocked the number, no thanks.BT7 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be BT Openreach - total scam, just ended the call straight away!BT Openreach7 yearsGot a call from some automated message claiming to be TalkTalk's tech team, saying my line would get cut off today if I didn't hit 1. Sounded dodgy to me, so I didn’t bother pressing anything.TalkTalk7 yearsReceived a call from 01252549442 claiming to be BT, but I’m pretty sure it’s some kind of internet scam. Definitely dodgy!7 yearsI didn’t pick up the first time, then they rang me again. The bloke on the line with an Indian accent said there was an issue with my internet. Even though I suspected it was a con, I played along for a bit. But seriously, how on earth did he know I was actually on my computer?!7 yearsGot a call from this number where a bloke said he was calling from BT about my internet. He wanted me to turn on my computer but cut off as soon as I told him I don’t even own one. Then, not long after, he rang again from 0386125254902, still pretending to be BT, asking about my broadband. I told him he’d just been on the phone and then he ended the call. Definitely a dodgy scam trying to snoop for your account info.BTSubmit Your Own Report (01252 549442)
