Complete waste of time, just hang up.

This number rings me up nearly every day, sometimes even a few times daily. They keep telling me my BT hub isn’t working but that’s odd considering I’m actually with Virgin. Feels like a total scam to me.

I got a call from this number after a bit of silence, and the person told me my internet was about to cut out. I was like, obviously it’s not, then I just ended the call.

Got a call from a polite lady with an Indian accent who wanted me to switch on my computer so she could check my phone line. Total scam, be careful!

The phone rang and there was a bit of a silence before someone started talking. The caller had an Asian accent but their name sounded really English. They said they were from BT and were talking about our internet. I told them I wasn’t convinced and just hung up. Definitely going to block that number now.

Totally a scam, got nothing to do with me. Just blocked the number right away.

I had a call once where there was this weird silence before anyone said anything, and the line was really crackly with a strong accent like they weren’t local. It’s a classic sign of a scam, and believe me, BT wouldn’t ring you up sounding like that. Best thing to do is just hang up straight away and make sure you report the number either here or directly to BT. These scam callers are honestly so dodgy.

Got a call with no one speaking, it's really annoying me now.

Some bloke with a really dodgy foreign accent rang me up pretending to be from BT, warning that my broadband might soon fail because apparently there were 11 failed attempts to hack into my computer. I played along for about 7 minutes, making him believe I was falling for it. Then I threw it back at him, asking how he could live with himself when all he’s trying to do is scam folks out of their money. Honestly, I hope those muppets get nabbed soon.

I picked up and there was silence on the other end. After a moment a recorded voice said what sounded like "goodbye" before hanging up. Pretty weird.

So today I got a call from some bloke with a heavy Indian accent saying my BT line is about to be cut off because hackers got into my account or something. He kept going on and on, but his English was so confusing I couldn’t make head or tail of it. Honestly, he’d be better off using that time to brush up on his English rather than trying to trick folks.

Got a call supposedly from BT saying there was a fault with my internet, but it was really just some crook trying to install malware. When I told her she was an international criminal, she just dropped the call right away. I just don’t get why GCHQ don’t step in and block these calls, considering they listen to all our chats anyway. I’ve blocked the number, but I’m sure they’ll just find another one to call from. No action from the authorities, as usual. Daid from Newcastle.

Got a call on 21st June 2018 at about 9.37 in the morning from someone claiming to be with BT. He had a strong Asian accent, but his name sounded quite English. He kept telling us our internet had some sort of issue and threatened it would be disconnected for two months. After a long spiel trying to convince us there was a fault, he asked us to log into our computer. We just let him ramble on for nearly 10 minutes - a shame we missed that mark by a bit. Honestly, it’s awful for anyone dealing with family stuff and then getting hassled by these kinds of callers on top of everything else.

Got a call from someone claiming to be BT, saying there was an issue with my internet. They asked to get access to my computer, which felt really pushy. They didn’t have any info about BT’s offices or my account. I figured right away it was some kind of scammer trying to mess with my PC. Definitely not legit.

Some bloke rang claiming to be from BT, but it was clear he was lying, so I told him to get lost (really fed up with these scammers) and hung up. Seconds later, the phone rang again and it was him, shouting horrible insults and calling me a w***** who should do all sorts with his "massive d***". Honestly, what drugs are these guys on? How is this kind of behaviour still allowed? Proper nasty people :(
