I've just had my second call from this same number. Today, they said they were from Premier Insurance. They claimed my Sky box and service were out of warranty and about to get cut off. I told them that’s odd, as I’ve never used Sky or had anything to do with them. Definitely feels like a scam to me.

I’ve also had several calls from this number, 01273713140. Today was different because the person actually spoke, whereas before it was just silent. The woman on the line sounded like she wasn’t local. She asked if I was Mr ######, which I didn’t confirm. She gave an address, though it wasn’t quite right, then went on about my SKY Maintenance contract being expired. Definitely seems like they’re trying to trick people into giving away money by using some dodgy tactics.

I called back and the phone said it was Personal Recruitment. When I picked up first, they told me my SKY kit needed an update. I told them I don’t even have SKY gear. They asked what I did have, and I just told them that’s not something they needed to know. Then they just hung up on me. That’s why I wanted to find out who they really were. Personal Recruitment, huh?

This number has rung me a few times over the past week. Whenever I get calls from unknown numbers, I just let the answerphone catch them and 90% of the time there's no message left, so I'm guessing it's just some dodgy sales or scams, probably from overseas. It's really frustrating because I have to stop what I'm doing to check if the call matters. They’re quite sneaky making it appear like it’s a local caller, so it’s handy to use this site to see what others say about it.

Got a ring from this number, some woman started telling me my Sky warranty had expired! I said, "Oh yeah?" trying to see what she'd say next. She insisted it was true and tried to sort it out straight away. I told her we ain’t got Sky at all, so no warranty to talk about. Told her she was having a laugh scamming folks, then she just hung up on me.

Some bloke rang claiming to be from Sky down in Brighton. He said my warranty had expired. Joke's on him, I haven't had Sky for ages! I told him I’m on the Telephone Preference Service, so he really shouldn’t be ringing me. He acted like he had no clue what the TPS was. I warned him I’d be reporting the call. Just watch out, don’t get ripped off. He couldn’t even provide any proof about this “contract” he was on about.

I've been plagued by this number incessantly ringing my phone, and each time I pick up, all I’m met with is dead air. A few recent calls featured nothing but the sound of someone breathing, which really rubbed me the wrong way! In a fit of frustration, I yelled “piss off!” as I've got far more important matters to attend to. Thankfully, I've finally blocked the nuisance, so fingers crossed it’s the end of it!

I usually just play along and say something like "hang on, I'll grab my info." Then I leave it for about 10 mins and when I come back, they're vanished! If they’re still there, well, check the tips below. Or like us, we go ahead and call out their bluff to the folks running the show. It’s not very pleasant for them, but it’s funny! Haha :) :)

I've received a handful of calls from this number, all featuring the same distinctive accent. A few days later, I picked up when she called again and recognised her voice straightaway. I decided to respond in Welsh, and just like that, she hung up on me. Quite the curious encounter, really!

I do have Sky, but this call about my "warranty running out" and some "half price deal" sounded a bit dodgy. I was at work and told the person to stop calling me. Usually Sky contacts me by email for any updates. Feels like a scam to me, so I've gone ahead and blocked the number.

I had the oddest call from a woman with a rather exotic accent claiming to be from The Sky, if you can believe it! There was so much racket in the background that I struggled to catch what she was saying. Eventually, I asked her to drop me an email instead. My instincts are telling me it’s a scammy sort of situation. The way she kept using phrases like “Of course, my darling” and tossing around “my love” at the end of nearly every sentence was quite off-putting. You’d think a legitimate Sky number would pop up, but alas, it wasn’t to be. Quite dodgy, if you ask me!

It was someone from Sky TV, and they wanted to speak to me by name. I asked how they’d found my number, and she told me it was because I’m a Sky subscriber.

This woman, calling herself Suri with a strong accent, said she was from the Sky Protection Team and rang my landline. Before she could launch into her pitch, I asked her straight up why she was calling me (I didn't mention I don't have Sky). She wanted me by my surname, even though I’ve been on the TPS list for ages and it’s all up to date. I told her to take my details off her system, and when she tried to argue, I said I’d be reporting the number and told her never to call again before hanging up.

I reckon this number might belong to a firm that once went by Satellite Direct. The Daily Mirror had a crack at exposing them, and I’m starting to wonder if they’ve just changed their name. I dealt with them myself about 15 years ago, got tricked into thinking they were Sky TV.
