8 yearsGot a dodgy call supposedly from BT claiming my broadband’s about to be disconnected. Seems like a scam to me! There's no way I’m going to be taken in by that nonsense!BT9 yearsgot a call from this number claiming to be talktalk about issues with my router. i am a talktalk customer and he even knew my name. some asian guy said my pc was getting viruses every time i used the internet. he asked me to let him access my computer to sort it out. i told him i was tied up and to call later. rang talktalk myself and they said they never contacted me. watch out for this number, it's definitely dodgy!TalkTalk9 yearsGot a call from a bloke with an Indian accent using the same number as before. He claimed only him and I (BT) would know my IP and said there was an issue with my slow internet which he could sort out. When he asked for my IP address, I told him I was tied up, then checked online to see if he was legit. The number matched what others reported too. I reckon if he rings again tomorrow, I’ll just ignore it like I mentioned.BT9 yearsthat same day i got a call from a withheld number using the exact same lines. the moment i told them i knew it was a scam, they just hung up straight away.9 yearsI've been getting calls from this number quite a bit lately. When you don't respond, there's just silence for a few moments before an automated voice says "goodbye." If you do end up speaking to someone, it's a guy with an Asian accent and you can hear a call centre buzzing in the background. He claims to be from BT and says there's an issue with your internet, then tries to convince you to share your bank details. Definitely a nasty scam aimed at tricking people out of their cash.BT9 yearsGot a call on my work phone, but there was nothing but silence on the line. Just as I was about to end it, an automated voice came on and said "goodbye". This week I've had at least three calls like this, though the others all came from private numbers. Quite strange!9 yearsGot a call from this number earlier, some bloke claiming to be Andrew from BT technical support, telling me my broadband would be cut off in 2 hours. I put them on hold for a bit and then they just hung up. Pretty sure it's a scam.AndrewBT Technical Support9 yearsToday around 1:13pm, I got a call on my home phone from this number. It seems to be connected to another number that called me at 12:55pm - 01268 164825 - which apparently has a "dangerous" label. Both share the same area code. Because of that, I’d say this one’s definitely ‘harassing’. I didn’t pick either call, only used 1471 to check the numbers. If it’s someone I don’t recognise, I just don’t bother calling back, straightforward enough.9 yearsGot a call claiming it was about my ‘BT internet connection’. Just don’t pick up or reply. We don’t even have a landline, so it’s got to be a total scam.9 yearsEvery time the phone rings, the caller just says goodbye right after we answer and then disconnects.9 yearsI got calls from that exact number just this month. Watch out, folks!9 yearsLike pretty much everyone else here, i got a call from this number too. Didn’t pick up tho, seemed fishy straight away. Not surprised to see loads of folks saying the same thing.9 yearsI let it go to my voicemail and they hung up, feels like one of those dodgy scam calls.9 yearsAs soon as I picked up, they just cut the call off.9 yearsOn 14th June 2017, someone claiming to be from BT tech support rang me up and asked for my name for security reasons. I didn’t give it to them and asked what the call was about. As soon as I asked, they just hung up. Obviously, it was a scam. I reckon it’s one of those tricks where they record you saying your name, then use it to claim you’ve agreed to buy something pricey, threatening legal action if you don’t pay. But as long as you don’t share your address or info, they can’t do much. I’ve since put their number on my CPR call blocker to stop them calling again.BT9 yearsGot a call from this number and the guy had an asian accent, claimed he was from BT’s IT team. Creepy thing was, he already knew my name. When i said i wasn’t buying it, he kept telling me to piss off and said i was annoying him before just hanging up. Really unsettling and rude experience overall.BTSubmit Your Own Report (01268 153178)
