01542189402 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01542189402 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance originating from scam callers impersonating internet service providers, notably claiming illegal activity on users' broadband lines and threatening disconnection within 24 to 48 hours. The calls often feature automated messages urging recipients to press a button to speak with a "technical advisor," which is a phishing attempt. Many instances include silent calls or immediate hang-ups upon answering, and some involve aggressive or confusing behaviour from callers. The number is linked to an Indian call centre operation targeting UK residents, frequently spoofing legitimate companies like BT or Openreach. Users are strongly advised not to engage or press any prompts and to block the number. Regulatory authorities and telecom providers should consider intervention to curb these harassing and fraudulent practices.

My phone said it was an international call. This automated voice told me there had been illegal stuff done on my internet, and my line would be cut off in the next day or two. Told me to press 1 if I wanted to chat with them. I blocked the number straight away. Then, in about an hour, I got two more dodgy calls from different numbers - one had the same scam message, the other was just dead quiet but was faking someone else's phone number.

Got a call from someone claiming to be Openreach saying my internet had some strange activity and that it would be cut off unless I pressed 1 to sort it out. This is the second time I've been rung in just under an hour. The first one came from another number, 01617739935, but the message was pretty much the same.
Openreach

Got the same rubbish call again, saying my Internet's been used for dodgy stuff and they'll cut me off in two days unless I chat to a tech expert by hitting 1. This is the third time in an hour! Seriously, I can't believe anyone falls for it. They’d stand a better chance trying to catch snails in my bath!

Got a call just as I was about to leave for work, around 8.20, but they hung up the second I picked up. Was left clueless about who it was or what they wanted until I checked the details here.
5 years
Today I got two calls from different numbers, both warning me that my internet service was going to be cut off soon. They said I had to press 1 and talk to one of their advisors to stop it happening. First time I thought it might be legit, but the second call made me think twice.
5 years
Got a call claiming to be from OpenReach about my broadband. I told them that if they really worked for OpenReach, they’d know my internet isn’t with them. I asked them nicely not to ring me again - but won’t be so kind if they do. These calls are getting really annoying, someone ought to sort this out.
OpenReach

Got a recorded call saying it was from my broadband company (BT for me) warning me about some dodgy activity detected on my internet at my place. They said they'd cut off the internet in a day or two unless I acted. Told me to press 1 to speak with a supervisor. Heard the message three times within a few hours - first time a bloke’s voice but no number shown, then twice more in quick succession while I was having lunch, this time a woman’s voice from this same number.

Got a call from 01542189402 earlier, and as usual, it smelt like a total rip-off. They were going on about my internet getting cut off soon, trying to scare me into pressing '1' to speak with some so-called tech support. Sounds fishy to me, definitely a dodgy number and most likely a scam. Steer well clear!

I received a rather alarming automated call that warned me my internet service could be cut off in the next day. To prevent this dreadful fate, they insisted I press a specific number on my phone to get in touch with them. Honestly, I just hung up on the whole thing.

It was super early, about 7:40 in the morning, and I was fast asleep, so the phone ringing kind of freaked me out. I didn’t manage to pick up quick enough, but the number definitely didn’t look like any I knew.

Got a call about half an hour after one from 01571691725, told it was from my internet company (didn’t say which one) and said I’d be cut off because of some illegal stuff. They told me to press 1 to keep my service. Cheers for having this site, it really helps calm the nerves!

I'm getting these quiet calls almost every day, like 5 or 6 times, and this number is always showing up. It’s really frustrating. After I gather a bit more info over the next couple of weeks, I’m planning to report it to Ofcom. It’s gotten so bad that now, when I pick up my landline, I just stay silent and wait to see if the person on the other end actually talks first - if it’s a real call at all.

Got three calls from 01542 189402 earlier on 28th July. An automated voice was warning that my internet would be disconnected within a day due to some illegal stuff they claimed to find. Sounds like a dodgy scam to me, really hope someone does something about it.

I picked up the call and there was a woman on the line. She just stayed quiet for maybe twelve seconds, then suddenly she said "goodbye" and hung up. No other words at all.

I keep getting these automated calls supposedly from my internet company, but the number and area code are always changing. They say my service will be disconnected within 24 to 48 hours because of some “illegal activity” and tell me to press 1. Seems like a classic scam trying to trick people into giving info. Anyone who actually hits 1 is probably just handing their details to con artists.

This number kept ringing with nobody speaking on the other end, leaving a good 10 minutes gap between each call. It’s proper intimidation, and I can only imagine how scary this must be for older folks or anyone who gets anxious easily.

Been getting loads of calls from them saying they'll cut off my internet. Yesterday this bloke brought up Openreach. I told him I'd already spoken to my broadband company and everything's A-OK, asked him what he wanted to say about that. He went quiet for ages so I just ended the call. It’s so annoying and stressful, no idea why these calls keep happening!
