Phone number ☎️ 01294217861 👆 is reported as a persistent scam operation impersonating a well-known UK internet provider, often using personal information like names and addresses to appear credible. Callers claim suspicious internet usage and offer fraudulent technical support, sometimes issuing threats or attempting to frighten recipients, particularly affecting vulnerable individuals. The numbers involved may show local area codes but are frequently virtual or misleading, sometimes registered overseas. Silent calls or dropped calls with no messages are common, causing frustration and alarm. Users are strongly advised not to share personal details, to hang up immediately, block the numbers, report the incidents, and consider contacting their provider for protective measures such as changing their phone number. These calls remain a significant nuisance despite efforts to block or report them.

9 yearsi keep thinkin, who on earth is footing the bill for all these calls?9 yearsGot a call the other day but no message was left after my answering machine picked up. I saw the number was from a Scottish area code and since I’m Scottish myself, I got a bit concerned - I have an elderly uncle in his 90s who isn’t well. I rang the number back but it just kept ringing without an answer. So, I decided to look it up online and turns out it’s another pesky scam. When will these calls ever end? And I’m on the ex-directory list too!9 yearsThe 01294 code supposedly links to Ardrossan, but it’s actually a virtual number. You can buy one of these from certain firms to keep your real number private.Ardrossan9 yearsBeen getting calls non-stop, like 8 times in just a couple days, all from different numbers. Back in 2015, my details got nicked in that TalkTalk hack. The few times I picked up, the callers spoke with an Indian accent and hung up as soon as I asked how they even got my number. Funny thing is, I’m ex-directory and signed up to the TPS, so no clue how they found me.TalkTalkTelephone Preference Service9 yearsI chose not to pick up as I'm rather cautious with unfamiliar callers. I prefer to let the voicemail deal with any unknown numbers. The caller didn’t utter a word, so I took it upon myself to investigate, given that I recognised the area code as being from Scotland-I'm a Scotsman myself, and my elderly uncle, who is in his 90s, still resides there and is gravely unwell. Naturally, I felt quite concerned. I dialled the number back, but it just kept ringing, which set off alarm bells in my mind. It dawned on me that this could be a scam, so I did a quick search here and lo and behold, yet another nuisance call! What really irks me is that I’m registered as ex-directory!Scotland9 yearsPhone went to voicemail straight away. didn’t leave any message though.9 yearsJust got a call again from a guy with an Indian accent saying my internet was being accessed all over and offering free help. He even knew my last name and that my internet is with TalkTalk. I asked him for a number so I could ring TalkTalk myself, and he gave me 0141 3145174. Definitely a scam. I’d say just hang up and report these dodgy calls straight away.TalkTalk9 yearsI always just block numbers when I think its some sort of scam call. Don’t trust them one bit!9 yearsWatch out! Got a call from someone claiming to be from TalkTalk, but it was actually an Indian call centre trying to scam me. They said they had details from TalkTalk and wanted to access my PC. Totally dodgy!TalkTalkIndia9 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Talk Talk, but when I asked for my password, they just rattled off some random numbers. Seems like they’re trying to scam folks, so watch out!9 yearsI've been getting these calls almost every few days, they claim they're from TalkTalk's tech support and say my internet's been compromised. They even use my name and address, which is pretty scary. I told TalkTalk about it, but they said it wasn’t them making the calls. Had to block the number now because it was about four calls a week.TalkTalk9 yearsI keep getting calls from this number despite having my number listed as ex-directory! Really annoying!9 yearsI've looked this number up and it seems to be based in India. They didn't even bother leaving a message, which is really irritating. I've blocked it now, but honestly, this is the third time this week I've had to block someone because they kept waking me up early in the morning.India9 yearsGot a bunch of calls from random numbers today, all silent. Don’t really know anyone up in Scotland either, so not sure what that’s about.Scotland9 yearsReceived a call today, 25th April 2017, from a chap claiming to be John Wilson, part of the technical team at TalkTalk.John WilsonTalkTalkSubmit Your Own Report (01294 217861)
