Phone number ☎️ 01482293879 👆 is reported as a KCOM number primarily contacting customers about the mandatory switch from copper landlines to fibre optic services.

Some users report misleading or confusing interaction styles, so caution and direct confirmation with KCOM is recommended.
Reports on phone number 01482293879
1 yearThis number has been blowing my phone up loads lately, getting calls a few times a day for several days. They keep saying they’re from British Gas and want to add a £50 voucher to my account. When I told them the number shows up as spam on my phone, the guy got quite rude and started rattling off my personal info to convince me he was genuine. I told him it was starting to feel like harassment and then he just cut the call.British Gas2 yearsThis number sounds really desperate, claiming to be from the 02 network. I checked with 02 myself and they said there's no connection at all with that number.2 yearsThat phone number is definitely from KCOM, I found it on their official site.KCOM2 yearsWhen I picked up, no one talked so I just ended the call, most likely some scam attempt.2 yearsReally fishy call, said they were from KCOM but phoned way after normal working times. They kept quizzing us about our fibre setup, which is odd because genuine KCOM reps usually just send us emails about that kind of stuff. Like some others have mentioned, the connection sounded terrible and I reckon the caller might have been messing with their voice to throw us off.KCOM2 yearsIt sounded pretty genuine to me. The call was about changing over the landline from the phone to the router. They just needed to check my address and the name of the main account holder, that’s all. The lady who rang was really polite and had a very proper English accent. But I did notice a lot of background noise, like lots of other people talking on calls at the same time, which is usually something you only hear with dodgy scam calls. So at first, I was a bit suspicious.2 yearsThe line was pretty bad, so I couldnt catch everything the woman said because she talked super fast. It sounded like something about switching from copper to fibre. She asked me for my ISP password, which I refused to share. Seemed legit enough, and if the switch is happening next week then she probably was for real!2 yearsThe call showed up as 'Likely Nuisance' on my screen, which says a lot about what it probably would've been if I’d picked up. Could’ve easily been some sort of scammer, who knows really.2 yearsI had a KCOM landline switch from the old copper wires to fibre recently. The person I spoke to was really nice and didn’t try to sell me anything dodgy or ask suspicious questions. They even arranged an engineer visit to check what’s possible since the phone socket isn't near the router. Plus, they told me I’d been paying too much for ages, so advised me to call customer support quickly to fix the contract.KCOM2 yearsI looked up this number online and saw some mentions linking it to KCOM, something about switching landlines to fibre. But if thats true, why are they calling my mobile instead of my actual home phone? Ive never even had a KCOM contract on my mobile, so it seems a bit odd to me.KCOM2 yearsThis number just rang me up saying they’re from Kcom and started asking if I use the NHS app. They wanted to ask a few questions, but I said no thanks.KcomNHS2 yearsTried calling but no answer, just went straight to blocked message.2 yearsSo, I saw a missed call and decided to ring back. A woman named Karen picked up, said she was with KCOM and asked how she could assist me. I mentioned the missed call, and she replied it was from their sales team. Then she asked for my postcode, phone number, and landline info. I wasn’t comfortable giving my real details, so I gave her some made-up ones and ended the call pretty quick.Karen2 yearsI got a missed call earlier and decided to ring back. A woman named Karen picked up, claiming she was with KCOM. She asked how she could assist me, so I mentioned the missed call. She told me it was from their sales department and then asked for my postcode, phone number, and landline. Not wanting to give out my real info, I just made up some random details and then ended the call.KarenKCOM2 yearsEvery time I pick up, the answerphone jumps in and hangs up on me. It's like the phone swaps to someone else when you try to answer. Quite annoying!2 yearsGot a legit call from my internet company offering a free upgrade from the old copper line to fibre. This switch has been all over the local news lately. I guess if you ignore it, you might end up without internet since copper lines are being phased out. Probably why some folks get repeated calls and end up thinking the staff are pushy or even harassing them.2 yearsI answered but just didn't say anything, so no clue who it was.2 yearsI checked out KCOM’s contact page on 4th September 2024 and noticed an 'UPDATES' section right at the top. It says KCOM will only call from 01482 293879 when they need you to do the Copper-to-Fibre switch. Despite that, they’re still ringing folks directly and asking for info, without sending any letters beforehand to let them know. To be on the safe side, I’d recommend always double checking by ringing KCOM yourself at 01482 602555 for customer services or 01482 484272 if it's about the landline switchover.KCOM2 yearsLike some folks mentioned, I got a call from KCOM about changing from copper lines to fibre optic. They told me loads of stuff about my account, like my billing cycle and the broadband plan I’m on - stuff only they could know.KCOM2 yearsGot a call saying they're with Kcom about switching landlines or something. I told them who still uses landlines these days and just told them to buzz off before hanging up. Best to just block this number, they’re really annoying.Kcom2 yearsI received a call from 01482 793879 inquiring about an incident I was involved in.2 yearsGot a call from them today at 1:38pm but I just let it ring out... They actually tried me about a month back too and I ignored then as well.2 yearsGot a call today, no one said a word and then the line just went dead.2 yearsGot a call from what seemed a legit KCOM number about switching my landline from copper wires to fibre. Sounded proper official, no dodgy stuff.KCOM2 yearsGot a call about switching over my landline. Told them I don’t actually have one and don’t need it, then they asked if I wanted a quick 2 minute rundown. I said fine. They began explaining the process and someone coming out, but I cut in saying I know enough and really don’t need a landline. They made some joke about trying to finish early for the weekend if they got a few more calls done and then just hung up.2 yearsGot a call from 01482293879 but they hung up straight away before I even got a chance to say anything.2 yearsReally a legit KCOM call about switching from copper to fibre. I checked with KCOM directly because didn’t wanna share my info without being sure. But it’s for real, they do mention this number on their site too - 01482 293879.KCOM2 yearsI had a chat with someone claiming to be from KCOM about the switch over. I was hesitant to answer his questions initially, but he told me I could verify the number first and he would ring me back next week. He already had loads of my details, even though I only answered a few questions like how I pay my bill, the amount, and which bank I use. He knew everything else, like my date of birth, address, full name, and when I moved in, plus my current plan. So yeah, I'd say this number is legit.KCOM2 yearsSomeone said they were from Kcom about this switch over thing (but why call my mobile, not my landline?) They asked for my password, which I honestly have no idea about coz I never set one up. Then they said my birthdate didn’t match their records (which it totally did!). So yeah, I just ended the call there.Kcom2 yearsI received a call today from the number 01482 293879, but my phone promptly blocked it without any input from me.2 yearsThis number rang me and my phone flagged it as maybe a scam. The caller, someone called Lewis, said it was about switching services and asked for my kcom password and email. I told him nicely I’d contact kcom myself using my landline to avoid any dodgy scams. I explained there’s loads of phone scams around so I didn’t feel comfortable sharing info. He was quite polite and said he totally got it.LewisKCOM2 yearsIt showed up as possibly dodgy but it was actually KCOM about the changeover from copper lines to fibre.KCOM2 yearsSaid they were from KCOM but didnt sound like they were from around here. Ended the call as soon as they asked for my security password.KCOM2 yearsYeh, its Kcom like they said about the switchover and stuff about sending the new adapter and how to set it up. They do ask personal questions but they seem legit.2 yearsHas anyone else received a message from Kcom about the transition to fibre for landlines?Kcom2 yearsI got a call from KCOM about changing over the landline, even tho I dont actually have one. The person on the phone told me it was all good and just to protect me down the line. It was a quick chat, maybe 10 minutes tops. They sorted out a new plan for me and emailed all the details afterwards. Pretty hassle-free really.KCOM2 yearsI got a call from KCOM, and they told me that all their customers should have copper landline sockets and a phone number. But I don’t actually have a landline myself. The chat was quite nice though, and they helped me switch to paperless billing, which ended up saving me some cash. They also seemed to know my exact plan and how much I’m being charged.KCOM2 yearsThe accent sounded rather suspect and foreign to me. I'm not entirely convinced by it.3 yearsI got a call from KCOM, apparently it was the migration crew. They said they're switching landlines from copper wires to fibre optic. Thing is, I don’t actually have a landline myself! They just wanted to confirm my info was correct, and later I got an email saying they’d be posting me an adapter. They mentioned I should keep it somewhere safe in case I do end up with a landline down the track. The person on the phone was quite nice too.KCOM3 yearsIt barely rang once before cutting out. No message left on voicemail either.3 yearsThis person said they were calling from kcom and wanted my info. I kept saying i was working and couldn’t talk, but they kept trying to get me to stay on the line.KCOM3 yearsI received a call from an unfamiliar number, so I opted not to pick up.3 yearsPlease don’t call me again, I’m not a Vodaphone customer.Vodafone3 yearsI got a call from this number but there was no voicemail left. Some folks mentioned it might be KCOM trying to talk about changing landlines, but since I don’t actually have a landline, it seems odd they rang me. Doesn’t really make sense why they’d be calling me at all.KCOM3 yearsI received a call from someone who seemed to know both my last name and job title. He claimed to be representing KCOM and informed me that my contract was set to renew in 2028, with an option to continue for just £2.50 a month. When I requested that he send the details in writing, preferably by email, he replied that he didn’t have that information. I reminded him that KCOM should certainly possess my email address. I then suggested he send it via post, though I didn’t provide my address. He was quite courteous throughout the conversation, but I couldn’t shake the feeling this was a scam. I’ve decided to block the number.KCOM3 yearsGot a call from KCOM trying to convince me to switch my landline over to fibre.KCOM3 yearsI can confirm this number is legit. It’s KCOM reaching out about their system upgrade. They're just verifying customer info as part of the switchover. Somehow someone flagged it as spam, which made my phone ring alarm bells. I asked the person on the line and they assured me it was KCOM for real, giving all the info about when the changes are happening and the new box we’ll need. Just thought I’d share in case anyone else gets worried - it’s all above board!KCOM3 yearsI've received a couple of calls today from this number, but they didn’t bother to leave a message. Quite peculiar, really!3 yearsGot a call on my mobile from this number, and the person claimed to be from Vodafone, which I’m not a customer of. Then they switched gears and said it was about the landline switch from KC in Hull. I explained I don’t even have a landline, but they insisted I could handle the switch myself. After telling them again I have no landline or phone to connect, I just ended the call.VodafoneKCHull3 yearsI received a call from an unfamiliar number earlier, but when I answered, it was utterly silent on the other end. I'm inclined to believe it’s yet another pesky spam call, wouldn’t you agree?3 yearsLooks like this is the contact for the KCOM landline upgrade.KCOM11 yearsIt appears that I've received a call from a rather dubious company promoting their services, claiming to assist with an accident that has, quite frankly, never happened. The caller was just another salesperson trying to drum up business.Submit Your Own Report (01482 293879)
