3 yearsGot a call with no one speaking at the other end. Quite annoying!3 yearsI reckon if someone’s calling a deaf person, it’s gotta be some kinda scam. Seems pretty obvious to me.3 yearsGot a call from Virgin about my internet being slow. When I asked some questions, the person on the other end just ended the call. Just another annoying telemarketer bothering me.Virgin3 yearsGot a call from 01252656123 to my BT landline in Aldershot on 28th September. It was dead silent, so I just hung up without saying anything. Honestly, it's total rubbish and sounds like some criminal scam to me. I'll be reporting it over at bt.com/scams for sure. Such nonsense!AldershotBT3 yearsMy phone rang and went to voicemail, but there wasn’t any message recorded.3 yearsJust had this dodgy call claiming my IP was out there for anyone to see, trying to get into my computer. Got way too many of these, so I threw a random #### alarm noise down the line and it didn’t go down too well with them at all. Proper sick of these scam calls now.3 yearsI received a rather peculiar phone call; the person on the other end addressed me by my name, despite my insistence that I was a different individual. It felt rather intrusive, as if he was trying to deduce the type of router I had based on the number of lights flickering away. When I confronted him about the distinct possibility that this was just a con, he stooped to calling me ugly, which, I admit, might not have been the most dignified response on my part. But honestly, if their intentions were sincere, why would they resort to name-calling? I can’t help but wonder if they’ve had a peek at my Facebook profile! Haha! Please, everyone, take care and remain vigilant!Facebook3 yearsI just ignored the call, seemed like one of those annoying ones.3 yearsSo some lot called BT Openreach reckoned my IP went from private to public, letting all these dodgy files download onto my PC. Sounds like a load of rubbish to me! I've given that number the boot.BT Openreach3 yearsSome bloke rang up saying he was with BT Openreach and that there was something wrong with my internet. He started asking how many gadgets I had hooked up, then wanted me to get on my computer so he could "fix" it. I knew straight away it was dodgy, so I didn’t fall for it. Proper scam call, no doubt about it.BT Openreach3 yearsGot a call from someone named Said claiming to be from Virgin Media about my internet speeds acting up. He asked me to check on my computer while he looked into it. I figured it was dodgy and just ended the call.SaidVirgin Media3 yearsi didn’t pick up the call, but after checking on your site, i found out that the number has a bad reputation.3 yearsDidn’t recognise the number so just let it go to voicemail. Going to block it now, no idea who it was.3 yearsGot a call with no one speaking on the other end. Pretty weird.3 yearsI've been getting calls from this number constantly, but no one ever leaves a message. Pretty sure it’s just another scam. It’s honestly getting a bit much.3 yearsI got a call from a bloke who actually knew my name, but as soon as I said yes, he just ended the call. Weird!3 yearsGot a call from someone named Kate who claimed to be ringing from BT. As soon as I asked for proof, they just hung up on me. Definitely a scam.KateBT3 yearsSome bloke rang me up with a weird accent, said he was from Openreach or something like that. Sounded dodgy to me!3 yearsSomebody rang up saying they were from BT, chatting about my internet connections being watched or something. They gave me a reference number and kept pushing. I told them it sounded dodgy and just ended the call straight away.BT3 yearsGot some dodgy calls from people in India, definitely a scam.India3 yearsGot a call from someone saying I’m due a refund on a kitchen gadget because they supposedly overcharged me. Sounds like a total scam just to steal my bank info.3 yearsBlimey, ive already had like 4 calls today from different numbers, its mad! Last week was the same, kept getting loads of these calls, really annoying now. No idea how they’re still making any money from this. I might just have to start telling them where to go 😡.3 yearsGot a call from a man, sounded pretty local no funny accent, said he was with OpenReach. Told me my internet security wasn’t private cause of some settings I’d supposedly changed. I wasn’t buying it and told him so, didn’t like the scare tactics. He acted like he hung up but I could still hear him breathing down the line. I hit back with a few warnings and then he finally hung up for real.OpenReach3 yearsThey ring me practically daily during the week. The moment I asked them to quit phoning, they just ended the call.3 yearsThe call ended suddenly when I didn’t reply, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number now.3 yearsI hung up as soon as it switched to the answering machine.3 yearsGot another dodgy call today, so annoying! Some bloke said he was from Openreach, trying to sort out a problem with my internet. I didn't fall for it and told him I suspected it was a scam. He just cut me off right away. I've blocked the number now, but I’m sure they’re using loads more. It says this number belongs to Virgin Media Limited tho, how does that work? Are scammers stealing their numbers?OpenreachVirgin Media Limited3 years656123 01252 I normally avoid answering numbers I don’t know but this one rings nearly every day, sometimes even a couple of times daily and at odd hours. If it was really urgent, wouldn’t they just leave a voicemail?3 yearsI got a call earlier about my internet service… was a bit weird cause I hadn’t asked for anything. Seemed like one of those sales calls trying to get me to switch providers or something. Definitely caught me off guard, wasn’t expecting it!3 yearsGot a call from this number just before 9 in the morning. Didn’t pick up and they didn’t leave any voicemail. Pretty sure it’s a scam, so I blocked it straight away.3 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with Microsoft and my computer had issues. Turned out to be a total scam.Microsoft3 yearsGot a call from a lady claiming to be from Microsoft, but it was definitely a scam! She's just trying to trick you.Microsoft3 yearsThis number keeps ringing only to drop before I can answer. Sounds like some call centre messing about. I've blocked it now.3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from Sky's tech support about my internet. I don't even have Sky, so I knew straight away it was dodgy. Just ended the call right away.Sky3 yearsHad a weird call today. Right after I answered, a woman’s voice just said goodbye and hung up. Makes me wonder if they were checking if no one was home, maybe planning a break-in? Very odd indeed.3 yearsNO SOUND WHEN THEY CALLED3 yearsThey claimed to be from Microsoft.Microsoft3 yearsTotally a scam, don’t trust it!3 yearsAs I was listening to him, I quickly searched online and stumbled across this site. I ended the call, but he phoned me again a couple of minutes later from another number... Apparently, he wanted to fix my answering machine...3 yearsThere was a call where no one spoke, and it just went straight to the answerphone.3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Microsoft, said there was an issue with my computer. Sounds dodgy to me.Microsoft3 yearsGot a call supposedly from "Microsoft" but I just ended the call straight away. Pretty clear it was a con, makes me wonder why they even bother doing this stuff nowadays, surely no one falls for these kind of scams anymore.Microsoft3 yearsWhen I picked up the call, there was nothing but silence on the other end before they hung up. I figured it must be a dodgy call, so I went ahead and blocked the number since I don't know anyone from that region.3 yearsDidn’t pick up the phone since I had no idea who was ringing. It went straight to voicemail, and I could hear a bunch of noisy chatter like from a call centre, with words all jumbled up. Couldn't really make sense of it, but towards the end it seemed like someone said I’d been removed from some kind of conference call! We’re registered with the telephone preference service, but it doesn’t seem to do much good in this case.3 yearsSomebody phoned saying they were from Microsoft, but it’s a total SCAM. Definitely block the number and report it straight away. What’s ridiculous is thinking Microsoft would actually ring customers about any problems - they don’t even maintain a consumer helpline anymore, only one for businesses. Instead, they make you slog through endless chat bots that never fix anything. Honestly, the idea they’d call you themselves is just laughable.Microsoft3 yearsI got a call from a lady with a really strong Asian accent, and I could hear loads of background noise like a call centre or something. She was saying something about someone having access to my internet without me knowing and a few other bits I couldn't quite catch. When she stopped talking for a moment, I just said thanks a lot, ended the call, and then put the number on my block list.3 yearsGot another call where no one was there, so I just went ahead and blocked it.3 yearsPicked up this number on my home phone and there was just silence initially, but I could hear a bunch of voices like in some office far away. Suddenly, a woman began speaking, but it was in some language I had no clue about. I asked her to repeat herself and she suddenly went silent. Even though I kept hearing chatter behind her, she never responded and ended the call.3 yearsGot a call on my landline from this number, bloke had a really thick Indian accent. Claimed he was from Sky, saying there was an issue with our slow broadband. When I asked for proof who he was, he wouldn't say anything else and just ended the call. Bit fishy if you ask me.Sky3 yearsAs soon as I picked up, the caller just disconnected.3 yearsThey said they were from Microsoft, but as soon as I questioned them, they started getting rude. I really don’t understand why these numbers aren’t blocked or taken down. It’s so annoying!Microsoft3 yearsAs soon as I picked up, the person just dropped the call.3 yearsAs soon as I picked up, the caller ended the call straight away.3 yearsI received a rather dubious phone call purporting to be from Microsoft, concerning my computer. When I inquired whether he needed access for any repairs, he resorted to colourful language and abruptly disconnected. Perhaps he was having a particularly rough day? This encounter has certainly set off alarm bells for me, as I would expect Microsoft experts to uphold a higher standard of professionalism.Microsoft3 yearsI keep getting calls from someone called ‘Emily’ saying she’s from BT. She claims my broadband is at risk, even though I haven’t got broadband with them at all. She keeps pushing me to click on a link in an email, which is supposedly a PIN I need to use before they explain how to fix this ‘issue.’ The odd part is that I did get an email hinting that there was a security breach connected to BT, since I used to have an account there. It’s definitely a common con, and BT know all about it. Proper annoying!EmilyBT3 yearsTotally scam, the lady couldn't even say my name right.3 yearsDidnt answer the call from an unfamiliar number and then just went ahead and blocked it.3 yearsGot a call from someone named Jack claiming he was with Virgin Media, saying there had been some complaints about internet issues in our neighbourhood. He asked us to share some details and guided us through a few computer screens to find our ID, supposedly to confirm he was legit. We played along for a bit but weren’t comfortable giving in to what he wanted. He warned that if we didn’t follow his directions, our internet would be cut off for 25 days and said we could verify him at some London address. Total rubbish! I told him where to go and ended the call.JackVirgin MediaLondon3 yearsGot a call from a lady with an Asian accent saying she was from Sky. She told me my router had issues because it was picking up problems from international websites or something like that. Sounded a bit odd to me.Sky3 yearsDo yourself a favour and dont chat with anyone claiming to be from Microsoft. I got stuck on the phone with them for about 15 mins, just going around in loops, so in the end I hung up.Microsoft3 yearsSomeone rang me up saying they were from Microsoft and told me my computer was compromised - they were really pushy about it. What threw me off was them using my maiden name, which made me think they’d just been looking through the phone book since that’s basically the only place I've seen it listed.Microsoft3 yearsGot a call from this number yesterday morning around 9:26 but they never left any voicemail.3 yearsHad a woman ring me up saying she was calling from the Microsoft Tech Department about my PC. She even knew my surname right off the bat. Honestly, just hang up - don’t get involved with this one.Microsoft Technical Department3 yearsGot a call from a woman who claimed she was with BT, saying they'd cut my bill by 35%. I told her BT never phones about discounts like that, called her out as a scammer and hung up straight away.BT3 yearsSome bloke said he was from Microsoft, but when I told him he was just a con artist, he hung up on me.Microsoft3 yearsTotally a scam, pretended to be from Microsoft. Ended up wrecking my old laptop.Microsoft3 yearsGot a call from a guy with an Asian accent claiming to be from Microsoft, but it was clearly a con. I just hung up straightaway.Microsoft3 yearsThe caller had both my postcode and address, but I told him they weren’t correct. He ended up threatening me, saying none of my devices linked to that address would work properly. His accent wasn’t English, sounded more like he was Asian.3 yearsGot a ring from this number earlier, they claimed to be from BT and said someone had been using my internet without my say-so. I asked them for my account details to check, and they just ended the call straight away. I've gone ahead and blocked the number now.BT3 yearsI received a call earlier from someone claiming to be with Sky, stating there were problems with my broadband being accessed by unauthorised users and that it was running slowly. To be honest, that’s not the case at all. I decided to end the call right then and there.Sky3 yearsI keep getting calls every day from this number. It’s a woman with an Indian accent who uses different names and claims to be from BT. I just hang up straight away nowadays.3 yearsI got a call from a woman with an Indian accent saying she was from Sky, talking about some issues with my broadband signal. She asked about the lights on my router, but I just hung up straight away.Sky3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Virgin, said they needed to fix my internet issue and wanted to get into my computer! Seemed fishy to me.Virgin3 yearsReceived a call I didn’t ask for. Quite bothersome, if you ask me.3 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be from Microsoft. Just ignore and block these scammers!Microsoft3 yearsMarked as spam, blocked right away. Definitely a scam.3 yearsReceived a call purporting to be from Sky regarding an issue with my internet connection.

Quite suspicious, if you ask me!Virgin MediaBT3 yearsGot a call on my landline from a number I didn’t know. Let it ring out and go to answerphone, but they never left a message. Feels like a scam to me, especially since it’s the second call I've had today from different numbers.3 yearsI got a call from a lady with an Asian accent, she said she was from Microsoft. I just hung up straight away!Microsoft3 yearsGot a call from 01252656123 this morning around 9am claiming I owed £95 on my Amazon account. I got another call later in the afternoon too, both seemed suspicious. I don’t even have an active Amazon account anymore, it was closed ages ago, so it’s obvious this is a scam. Weirdly, they have my old unlisted landline number, so I’m kinda worried about what other dodgy calls might come next.Amazon3 yearsThis number, 01252656123, rings non stop but whenever you pick up no one says a word. Looks like it's some kind of scam. Got fed up and blocked it now because it's just too annoying.3 yearsGot a call and when I answered, no one said a word before they just hung up. Pretty weird.3 yearsAs soon as I answered, the person on the other end just cut the call straight away.3 yearsThink this was a scam, felt really dodgy.3 yearsHe mentioned something about a scam caller from Sky!Sky3 yearsGot a call from a fella with a strong Asian accent saying he was from Sky about our router, but the moment I started asking stuff, he just dropped the call.Sky3 yearsThis number keeps phoning me and says they're from Sky, but they never actually prove it or give any real info. It's been happening loads of times now.Sky3 yearsThey just ring non stop, saying they're from Virgin Media about some internet problem or other. I usually try to keep them on the line as long as possible to waste their time, so hopefully they can't bother anyone more vulnerable.Virgin Media3 yearsGot a call from some scammer tryin to talk about issues with my computer Windows or whatever - bit funny since I haven’t touched Windows in over 15 years. When the woman realised I wasn’t falling for it, she got pretty rude. Wish I had more time to mess with them and stop others getting caught out!3 yearsGot a call from some overseas number trying to scam me. I just cut the call straight away and blocked them. Sorted!3 yearsMy landline rang and a young lady answered after a bit of a pause. She claimed to be from Microsoft but something seemed off.

Didn't really trust it, so ended it pretty quickly!Microsoft3 yearsI got a call from a bloke with a strong accent, maybe Indian but I don’t want to jump to conclusions. He said, "Hi, I’m calling from Microsoft today..." and before he could say more, I just hung up. It’s weird that with so many people having to check this number already, the phone company hasn’t done anything about it. Why don’t they report whoever owns this number to the fraud squad? Or just block the number altogether? It’s a bit baffling.Microsoft3 yearsI got a call about broadband fraud, but just hung up straight away. They started cursing, but honestly, don't stress about any of it.3 yearsThis bloke with an Asian accent rang me claiming to be from BT, my internet company. I asked him nicely to provide my actual BT account number to prove it was legit. Instead, he kept pushing some other code I didn’t want. I told him straight up I only wanted the account number or else he could fess up that he was trying to scam me. After that, he just hung up on me.BT3 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Asian accent claiming she was from Virgin Media. Normally it's pretty quick to spot these scams, but lately the number showing up on my phone looks like a local one, like 01252 or something, which makes it harder to just ignore. Really don't understand how they manage to use local numbers like that or if it's even legal to do so?Virgin Media3 yearsGot a call from a woman with a heavy accent and weird giggling in the back. She kept saying I had some issue with Microsoft! I told her I don’t even own a computer, but she insisted there was one under my name. I joked if it was a funny kind of computer since she was still laughing, but then she told me to get lost, called me some nasty names, and just hung up on me!MicrosoftSubmit Your Own Report (01252 656123)
