Phone number ☎️ 01440718774 👆 is reported as a persistent scam operation impersonating BT technical support, frequently making unsolicited calls claiming faults or unauthorised access to internet connections. Callers, often with foreign accents, request remote access to routers or computers, using common tactics like instructing recipients to press Windows keys to prove legitimacy. Many callers hang up when challenged or fail to identify themselves properly. Victims report repetitive calls, including silent or nuisance hang-ups, and aggressive behaviour when questioned. Attempts to verify the number often reveal it as unreachable or falsely assigned. Users find it difficult to block these calls, especially on landlines, and urge BT to take stronger action. Overall, the number is strongly associated with deceptive, high-frequency scam calls and is best avoided and blocked.

8 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with BT, told me there was something wrong with my internet line. Definitely a scam, so watch out and don’t trust them!BT8 yearsSomeone called Jordan Oliver says he’s with BT’s tech team and wants to get into my router. Definitely a scam, he’s not from BT at all.Jordan OliverBT8 yearsI got a silent caller using my landline even tho my number isn’t listed anywhere. I can block numbers on my mobile no problem but dunno how to do it on the landline. Can anyone tell me how to sort this? Cheers!8 yearsGot a call from someone speaking with a strong Asian accent claiming to be from BT’s ‘technical team’. I asked, “are you legit or just gonna hang up on me?” Then they snapped back with, “put the phone down you f***ing mother sucker.” Lovely interaction!BT8 yearsGot three calls that were silent all within ten minutes. Very annoying.8 yearsBeen getting calls non-stop, like 6 in just one hour! The first couple just dropped the line, so I found this website and decided to just not bother answering the others.8 yearsGot three calls all within a couple hours.8 yearsThe number didn’t show up on BT Call Guardian, so I’m guessing it’s either a call centre or possibly a scammer. I’ve just gone ahead and blocked it.BTGuardian8 yearsHow come BT just lets these scammers keep using their network to ring me over and over all day? Shouldn't they be doing something to stop it? It's really frustrating having to deal with calls from these people so frequently.BT8 yearsThey kept ringing me non stop then just dropping the call. Can’t keep track but its been like 7 or 8 times today for sure!8 yearsI’ve had more than 7 calls today from people claiming to be with British Telecom, telling me that others are using my internet. Both men and women have called, and whenever I ask who they really are or what’s going on, some have just hung up on me while others got quite aggressive. Despite this, the calls keep coming in with the same rehearsed spiel. They ring from different numbers but the voices sound familiar. BT told me to block the numbers but don’t seem able to help much beyond that.British TelecomBT8 yearsI put my details in and made a complaint through BT Openreach’s site about one of their workers, since there wasn’t a proper place to report scammers. I’m curious to see what kind of rubbish reply, if any, they’ll bother sending me.BT Openreach8 yearsThis number has been calling me loads, just ringing and then cutting off. Finally, when I answered, the person said they were from BT. I told them we’re on the do-not-call list and they just hung up. Then, they had the cheek to ring back about an hour later. We’re going to put this number on our blocked list now.BT8 yearsSo, I got two calls in less than an hour, first from a lady who then passed me on to a bloke. The man said he was from BT Openreach and asked me to put in Windows-r, which I know brings up the run box on Windows. Their typical trick is to convince you there's a problem by showing some Windows logs and then get you to join a service so they can access your PC remotely. I told the bloke I’m actually running Ubuntu though, and he just ended the call straight away. --- tcbεBT Openreach8 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were with BT, saying there was unauthorised access to my router. They told me to hit the Windows-R keys to show they were a genuine BT agent with a special reference number only BT has. I told them I'd need proof of their identity before sharing anything, and reminded them it's best not to give out personal info over the phone to strangers. I also said if they couldn’t prove it, I’d end the call. They just hung up right after that.BT8 yearsthis morning, i got a couple of calls. the first guy claimed he was from bt, saying there was an issue with my internet. i was on my pc at the time and told him i could see there wasn’'t any problem, then i ended the call. a bit later, a woman rang me and did the same spiel. when i mentioned i’'d just talked to someone else from their team, she abruptly ended the call. now, just a few moments ago, a third call came through but no one said anything before they disconnected.BT8 yearsMy landline has been getting constant calls, so many I ignored the first few times. Later I tried checking the number by dialling 01471, but it didn’t come up as known. I think it might be an overseas caller cos when I picked up eventually, someone was there but the connection was so bad I couldn’t make out what they said and had to hang up. Wish these calls would just stop since I can’t seem to block numbers on this phone.8 yearsGot a call from a guy named Jason claiming to be from BT Openreach, but it was obvious he was actually ringing from some call centre in India. Total scam!JasonBT Openreach8 yearsLooks like the same bunch of scammers who’ve been ringing from 01443 403135 all day. So far, I’ve had four calls, and nobody said a word the first three times. On the fourth, an Indian guy said he was calling from BT and claimed it was against the law for someone else to be using my internet. When I told him that wasn’t true and asked for his BT employee ID to check, he just hung up. Didn’t swear or anything, but I did manage to waste about five minutes of his time.BT8 yearsThey keep ringing me but just drop the call straight away.8 yearsThey keep ringing me but hang up as soon as I answer. So annoying!8 yearsI picked up but they just ended the call. This number kept calling so I’ve blocked it now.8 yearsThey keep ringing me up, some woman saying she’s from BT. I told her I didn’t want anything to do with it! Then she started saying my router was being used by other folks and that it was against the law or something. Right away I could tell it was dodgy when she got annoyed at me for questioning her. I ended the call. They’re seriously relentless with the calls!8 yearsBeen hassled by scam calls like 7 times already just today!8 yearsOn 7th August 2018, I picked up the phone and the caller just ended the call straight away.8 yearsThis number kept ringing me all day with someone saying they were from BT’s Tech Support. I tried to ring it back but got a message saying the number isn’t working. I told them to stop calling and to delete my details, then they just hung up on me. Not sure if they’ll bother calling again or not.BT Technical Department8 yearsI got a call from a man with an accent who said he was from BT tech support, claiming my internet had issues. I just said thanks but that my internet was working perfectly, and I could tell it was a scam. When he asked how I knew, I told him I was hanging up and not to bother calling back.BT8 yearsJust got a call from the same number about an hour back, but this time it was a woman claiming she was from BT's tech department. She asked if I knew folks were getting into my router. I told her I knew it was a scam. She tried to argue with me, so I just ended the call.BT8 yearsGot a call this morning at 9:50 from someone claiming to be with BT saying there was unauthorised use of my internet and they needed to check my computer. I said no thanks. Then they called back at 10:28, but this time the number showed up as “international” on my phone. Pretty suspicious if you ask me.BTSubmit Your Own Report (01440 718774)
