Phone number ☎️ 01476596566 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance associated with scam calls pretending to be from BT Openreach or broadband providers. Callers, often using Asian or African accents, attempt to trick recipients by claiming internet issues, threatening disconnection or asking to access computers, sometimes using technical jargon to appear legitimate.

Victims express frustration over repeated calls, suspected data breaches, and fear of financial or personal information theft.

5 yearsgot a call from a guy with an asian accent claiming to be from openreach about issues with my internet. i couldn't really catch what he was saying and after a short while, he just hung up. then it hit me, it was probably a scam since my internet's actually with bt. i've blocked the number now so hopefully won’t get any more calls from them.OpenreachBT6 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Asian accent claiming I was in a car crash that wasn't my fault. Totally fake, so I just blocked the number.8 yearsI got a call from some guy who said he was Alex from BT Openreach, sounded asian. This was the third time in a few days that someone had called me claiming the same, but all with different numbers, like they were all reading the same script or summat. I told him straight up to stop ringing me. After that, he actually threatened me, saying they’d just keep calling non stop, day and night. Proper annoying and a bit scary tbh.AlexBT Openreach8 yearsBe careful not to give out any details to these callers. They try to get you to let them into your computer and then steal your bank info from it. I haven't gone through it myself, but saw a news story about it recently. They rang me today too, but as soon as I asked some questions, they just ended the call.8 yearsI just got a call from a woman with an Asian accent, sounded like she was in a busy call centre with noise all around. She wanted me to download some software onto my computer. The creepy part was she already knew my name and which internet provider I use (TalkTalk). The call came from a UK number, 01479 574632. Feels like my info’s been leaked somehow. TalkTalk, can you please clarify what’s going on?TalkTalkUK8 yearsanother call came in about an hour later but this time it was just dead silence on the other end, which i believe is illegal. honestly, something needs to be done to put an end to this. i have unwell family members and every ringing phone makes me anxious. loads of folks end up trusting these scammers and handing over cash or personal details, it’s really unfair the uk officials barely do anything to shield the vunerable people from these con artists.UK8 yearsGot a call on my landline from a bloke with an overseas accent saying something about my internet. I stayed quiet and he hung up straight away. He was calling from a number in Grantham, I think.Grantham8 yearsThey dialled my number but hung up as soon as I picked up.8 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be BT Openreach, saying my router had been running slow and they’d been keeping an eye on it for a few days.

They claimed to be Openreach again, saying my internet provider had reported issues with my connection. I told them I wasnt buyin it and called them out as a scam, then they just hung up. Surely the fraud squad needs to step in and put a stop to this soon.8 yearsThey just won’t stop ringing my phone!8 yearsI got calls twice from this number today and also from 01582766218, both times they said something about my BT not working properly or some issue like that. The first lady who called sounded Asian and said her name was Rita. The other calls were from a man calling himself John. These names just seem a bit dodgy to me.RitaJohn8 yearsGot a call from a lady with an African accent who said there was some issue with my computer.8 yearsGot a call from some bloke who said he was calling about my BT broadband. I just said a quick "yeah?" without much interest and he just hung up on me. I actually have Virgin!Virgin8 yearsHad a call from a bloke saying his name was Kevin, claiming it was about my BT Openreach internet. Felt dodgy since I don’t even have BT internet and his name sounded made up. Let him go on for a while but stopped replying, then he just ended the call. Sorted him out with a block.KevinBT8 yearsGot two calls from this number today. First was a woman with an African accent saying there was an issue with my internet connection, I told her I wasn't interested and ended the call. Later, an Indian guy called claiming to be from Openreach, saying they'd disconnect my internet for ten days because my router was sending some strange messages. When I asked him to tell me who my internet provider was and he couldn’t answer, I just hung up straight away.8 yearsGot a call from some bloke with an Indian accent claiming he was from Openreach, said they were gonna cut off my internet for 25 days. It was super noisy in the background like a busy call centre or something. I told him my brother-in-law works at Openreach and he never mentioned anything about work near me. Then the guy just hung up on me.Openreach8 yearsNot sure who this is, but the calls keep coming. Guess I’ll just block the number.8 yearsThis number rang me up claiming to be from BT, warning that my broadband would get cut off in 25 days. I couldn’t make much sense of what he was saying, so I asked him to repeat himself. Later, I got a bit annoyed and called BT directly. They told me it was a scam and even set me up with their call connect protection service for free.BT8 yearsGot a call from some Indian scammers claiming to be from BT, said they’d disconnect me for 25 days if I didn’t do something. I just told them to go ahead since I’m actually with another provider.BT8 yearsSome bloke with an Asian accent called, said his name was Kevin and was ringing about my BT broadband. I greeted him with a casual "Hello Kev," then he just cut me off. Bit disappointing really, I was ready to have some fun messing with him.Kevin8 yearsReceived a call from this number earlier today. When I picked up, there was complete silence on the other end, so I decided to hang up and I'll be adding this number to my block list.8 yearsCould tell it was a call centre right away with all the noise in the background. I ended the call pretty quick since no one said a word.8 yearsSo this bloke from India rang up, claiming my BT broadband was running slow. He told me to log into some W3C Validator and put in my email. Apparently, it showed loads of errors and warnings. When I started doubting if it was legit, they warned me hackers might be after my computer and personal details. I said I’d double-check with my husband about the report and asked them to wait... then they just dropped the call! Proper dodgy behaviour. >:(W3C Validator8 yearsGot two calls from this number today, both saying they were from BT regarding my internet. First time it was a bloke with an English accent, then a guy who sounded Indian. When I asked for their contact info, they both just dropped the call. Bit fishy if you ask me.BT8 yearsGot a call from a man with an Indian accent speaking really fast, mumbling stuff I couldn't make out. I asked him to say it again, but it was just as hard to understand. After a while, we just ended the call.8 yearsThis number has rang me 4 times today. I finally picked up the 4th call, but there was nothing said at all, then they just dropped the call. Strange!8 yearsGot a call from a bloke with a strong Indian accent and loads of noise in the background. Claimed to be calling from BT Open Reach and said he could help speed up my router in just a few minutes. Told me to press Ctrl+Win+R on my PC to start the process. That set off alarm bells for me, so I asked him to tell me my address. After a quick pause, he just cut the call. Seemed dodgy to me.BT Openreach8 yearsWasn’t sure who called as no one spoke on the other end when i answered, think i’ll just block the number now.8 yearsGot a dodgy call from someone with an Asian accent claiming to be from BT Broadband.
