Phone number ☎️ 01293401696 👆 is reported as a persistent scam operation often claiming to be from BT or Virgin Media, usually involving calls about supposed router or broadband problems. Callers often have Indian accents, background noise suggesting call centres, and try to get users to turn on computers or enter codes to "fix" issues. Many report multiple calls in a day, with some calls hanging up abruptly or having no-one on the line. Genuine providers say they don’t make such calls asking for personal info or computer access. Callers can be rude when challenged, and the phone numbers used don't match official company details, often traced to unrelated addresses. Users strongly suspect attempts to gain control of devices or personal data, marking these calls as phishing and scams.

Definitely a scam.BT Openreach8 yearsToday, I got about 15 calls from someone saying our Virgin router wasn't working. They kept telling me to get on my computer, but when I said I didn’t have one, they just ended the call. I've contacted Virgin myself, and they're looking into it and said they’ll alert the police as well.Virgin8 yearsI got two calls from this number but as soon as I said hello, they just ended it.8 yearsGot a couple of calls off this number, first they claimed to be Virgin Media, then later someone saying they was from BT OpenReach told me my router had an issue and my broadband speed was dropping every time I logged online.

Such a scam!Openreach8 yearsGot a call from this number but they just disconnected right away, definitely seemed suspicious.8 yearsIn the past hour, I received three separate calls claiming to be from BT, all spinning the same fake tale about problems with my broadband. I rang BT directly and was told these calls are a scam. Best thing to do is just ignore and hang up.BT8 yearsGot a call from this number but they hung up almost straight away, seemed a bit dodgy if you ask me.8 yearsI got calls from this scammer about four times saying there was an issue with our router. They kept asking if we had a laptop or computer because apparently some changes needed to be made. They claimed our router was using a ton of data, but it felt like a trick to get into my devices and steal info. When I checked with BT, they told me they never call to ask for personal details and only ring occasionally for marketing stuff. Definitely seemed dodgy to me!BT8 yearsToday I picked up a call and all I could hear was some background noise like an office, but no one actually spoke. Pretty sure it was one of those scam calls.8 yearsYesterday I got a phone call from someone wanting to chat about my BT broadband, saying my connection had been terrible recently. They asked me to get onto my laptop but when I said I was at work, they just ended the call. Then today, they phoned again, and when I questioned them a bit more, they cut the call off again. I tried ringing the number back - first time it was busy, then no response the second time. Felt pretty dodgy to me, don’t reckon it’s legit BT, they’d give more info and wouldn’t just drop the call like that. Definitely a call to be cautious about.BT8 yearsThe last week or so I've had loads of calls where noone answers when I pick up. I’m not sure if it's all from the same number but this is the first time I bothered looking it up. Really frustrating!8 yearsGot a call from 01293 401696 but I let it ring through cause I wasnt sure who it was. They hung up straight away, no voicemail or anything left behind.8 yearsSome bloke said he was from BT Openreach and claimed there was an issue with my router, but he only seemed bothered about my landline. He lost me when he asked me to turn my computer on. From what I know, if there’s ever a problem, my provider sorts it from their side without needing me to do anything. He rang me back a couple of times quite close together, and the number he used was 01215022518.BT Open Reach8 yearsI looked into the number and found it’s registered to an address in Crawley, West Sussex. It’s definitely not BT. Best to just ignore it.CrawleyWest Sussex8 yearsHad this number ring me up four times today claiming to be BT OpenReach. They said my router was messing up the BT servers and that my phone line would soon be cut off. But don’t worry, they said they could sort it all out for me.

What a joke.BT8 yearsso this guy with an american accent called saying he was from bt and that there was some issue. i just ended the call straight away.BTSubmit Your Own Report (01293 401696)
