Got a call from some scammer pretending to be from Ofcom, saying there’s a “free” but compulsory update to your “boost your broadband” plan. They reckoned if you don’t take it, your internet would get cut off, and somehow it would make your connection a lot faster. Total rubbish, obviously.

I keep getting calls from this number, never leaves a voicemail but rings back a few times over the next day or so. Sounds like one of those annoying call centre or scammer tricks. After it’s happened a couple of times, I just block the number - honestly, using call blocking on my phone was the smartest move I’ve done.

They said if I didn’t upgrade my broadband today, it’d be cut off. Tried to get me talking to some advisor, but nope, not falling for that.

Got a voicemail that said it was from Ofcom, but it was all automated. Same old scam, I'm sure.

Like a bunch of others, I stayed on the call and ended up chatting with someone pretending to be from OFCOM, but they had no clue who I was. Proper dodgy if you ask me.

I got a voicemail saying it was from Ofcom and that they were going to disconnect my internet today. Seemed a bit dodgy to me.

Got a recorded call saying it was Ofcom warning my internet would be disconnected today. They told me to hold on to talk to an officer. Honestly, it felt pretty dodgy so I didn’t bother. Luckily the call ended on its own - just a total nuisance, nothing more.

Got a call from some number saying it was from "OffComtco" or something like that, warning my broadband would be cut off unless I held on to get an upgrade. Doesn't feel legit at all. I'm pretty sure it’s a scam, so I just hung up. If you’re worried, best to ring your provider directly using the number on their official website. I used to work in telecoms and these kinds of calls always set alarm bells ringing for me.

They didn't even bother to leave a voicemail.

Like a few others mentioned, I got a recorded message claiming it was from Ofcom saying my internet had to be upgraded or they'd cut off my service. Then it said to stay on the line to chat with someone about it. Clearly a scam, pretty much the same as other calls I've had before pretending to be from BT.

I just had this weird call about my broadband being disconnected, which didn’t make sense since I’d spoken to my internet company not long ago and they never said anything about it. Feels like a scam to me. I’m signed up with the TPS as well, so I’m really puzzled how they managed to get my number.

like the others said, got a call saying i gotta upgrade my broadband or something, sounded like a total scam to me!
