01257456222 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01257456222 👆 is reported as a persistent scam likely originating from abroad, where callers impersonate BT representatives to claim issues with broadband or routers, aiming to access personal computers remotely. Many report aggressive or abusive behaviour when challenged, and attempts to manipulate victims into believing their internet services will be disconnected due to supposed hacking. Calls often feature strong foreign accents, silent pauses, or quick hang-ups, and some victims experienced financial loss after unsolicited access was granted. Genuine BT or TalkTalk staff do not make unsolicited calls requesting remote access or personal details. Users are advised to reject such calls, register with the Telephone Preference Service (TPS), block the number, and report incidents to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) to help combat this fraud.

9 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be with TalkTalk, but when I asked a few questions, he quickly switched to saying he was from BT. Definitely a scam.TalkTalkBT9 yearsGot a call from 01252620230 earlier, said they were from BT or something, but sounded like a total scam to me. Told them to buzz off straight away.BT9 yearsGot a call from some bloke named "David Jones", sounded Indian, said he was from BT. Told me my router got hacked or summat. Seemed a bit dodgy to me.David JonesBT9 yearsIf you're signed up with the TPS, make sure to report any live spam calls straight to the ICO. Scammers couldn’t care less about posts here, but they definitely start sweating when the ICO gets involved - and honestly, it barely takes five minutes to do. And for those not on the TPS yet... honestly, you’re just asking for it. Don’t think your phone provider’s gonna step in either - they’re too busy cashing in from selling your caller ID info and boosting their earnings from call-blocking services.ICOTPS9 yearsSome bloke rang me saying he was from BT, claiming my internet was giving trouble. I told him it was all good and just ended the call. Then he rang again, saying BT would be disconnecting my internet soon. My connection’s still fine though. Classic scammer from India using fake UK numbers pretending to be legit.BTIndiaUK9 yearsAbsolutely a scam, attempting to get into your computer by claiming there's an issue with your BT broadband or router. I confronted the bloke, calling him a crook, and he swore at me before I hung up. To summarise, unless you can immediately verify that the caller is genuine, assume every call is either a scam or downright aggressive.9 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Indian accent saying she was from BT. She said my internet would be cut off for like 3 weeks because hackers had gotten in. I didn’t buy it and told her it sounded dodgy before ending the call. Then I rang BT right away and gave them the number.BT9 yearsI heard the phone ring and hurried down from upstairs to pick it up, but when I answered, there was nobody on the other end.9 yearsThis number rings me about three times every day. I just let it keep ringing till it goes to voicemail. They never leave any messages, and I’ve no idea who they are.9 yearsI got a couple of calls they said they were from BT. First time, they told me my computer had been hacked, and the next call was about an issue with my router. Both times they wanted me to let them get into my computer remotely. Definitely a scam.BT9 yearsThey've rung me a couple of times both yesterday and today, saying they're from BT and talking about my broadband. When I mentioned we don't even have internet, they just hung up straight away.BT9 yearsI got a call from this bloke claiming to be from BT, but he sounded proper irritated. I told him he was just ringing my answering machine, and he snapped at me, calling me childish. They kept insisting they were with BT. After about four minutes of this nonsense, they finally gave up and threatened to cut off my internet, then just hung up on me. Quite annoying!BT9 yearsGot two calls from this number today but they just dropped it after about 10 seconds, didn’t say a word.9 yearsYesterday I got a call from the same number while I was online doing my internet banking. The person had an Indian accent and sounded really pushy and rude. They claimed there was an issue with my router. Then my computer rebooted by itself, and when it came back on, all the money in my bank account was gone. Not only that, they somehow arranged an overdraft and drained that too. Really worrying stuff.9 yearsThis number purports to be from BT and is inquiring about my email account.BT9 yearsthis morning i got a call from 01257 456222 and some bloke with an asian accent was going on about my bt router being hacked. the funny thing is, i don't even have a bt connection at my place. i played along for a while, but then he got really rude and started saying all sorts of inappropriate stuff. it's the second call like this i've had in as many days. honestly, if you get a call saying your bt router's been hacked, just ignore it and hang up straight away.9 yearsGot a call from a bloke claiming to be with BT, saying my computer had a virus. I just told him that’s for my antivirus company to sort out! Ended up blocking the number after that!BT9 yearsHad a call first thing this morning from someone claiming to be BT, saying there was an issue with my router. Checked with BT afterwards and they told me nobody had rung me. Same old scam I reckon.BT9 yearsI received a call supposedly from BT regarding my internet connection, but it raised quite a few red flags. The caller had a pronounced foreign accent, and there was a lot of crackling on the line which made it hard to hear. This is the second time I've had such a call in just a few days, and although they came from different numbers, the similarities were striking. I can't shake off this feeling of unease.BT9 yearsToday at around 10 in the morning, I got a call from someone with an Indian accent claiming to be from BT. They told me my internet was going to have issues and asked me to switch on my computer. That’s when I just hung up - I know BT don’t just call you out of the blue, you’re supposed to call THEM first. I’ve even reported it to 101. Definitely a scam.BT9 yearsThis number has been calling me this morning just before 9am, even though it’s usually withheld. I stopped picking up now. Got a call earlier, bloke claiming to be from BT, said there was a problem with my internet. When I told him we don’t use BT, he just hung up straight away. They’re still ringing non-stop, clearly auto-dialling or whatever. Proper irritating.BT9 yearsThey purport to be representatives from my internet service provider, but it’s clearly a load of nonsense.9 yearssomeone said they were from bt and that they were going to cut off my wifi. then they told me to turn on my computer but when i said i didn’t have one they just ended the call. total scam!BT9 yearsI answered the call but there was nothing said, just silence. When I tried calling the number again, it said it wasn't in service or something like that.9 yearsWhenever I pick up, it's just dead air until the caller hangs up.9 yearsGot a call from this number at roughly 9.05 am today. They claimed to be from BT and warned me that our internet would be cut off for around 20 days due to hackers. They asked me to switch on my computer so they could assist me. I ended the call sharpish and told them to f*** off.BT9 yearsThey said they were from my internet company but it was totally a lie.9 yearsI picked up the call but they just hung up straight away. Tried calling back and the number didn’t even come up, so I reckon it’s a scam. Luckily, you can get call protect for free which lets you block certain numbers and any calls you don’t know.
