9 yearsI have no clue who that was, all they did was say goodbye and hang up.9 yearshad this bloke named austin ring me up 3 times today, said he was from openreach or something. he wanted me to get on my laptop so he could fix my internet speed or whatever. as soon as i asked a few questions, he just hung up on me. tried calling the number back but it says it’s unrecognised, bit weird if you ask me.AustinOpenreach9 yearsAfter hanging up, I used 1471 and got this number back from someone claiming to be a BT engineer named Austin Brooks. He told me to check if he was legit by ringing 020332397603. I wasn’t convinced, so I called BT using the number from my bill (0800 800 150). When I finally got through, they said they’d never made a call like that, so it’s pretty clear the first call was fake.Austin BrooksBTSubmit Your Own Report (01498 216482)
