8 yearsSome bloke claiming to be from "BT Openreach" in the Calcutta division rang me up, saying they'd disconnect my broadband for 28 days. I told him to go ahead since there's no internet tied to my landline anyway, and he just hung up on me.BT OpenreachCalcutta8 yearsSome bloke claiming to be from BT Openreach called me about my internet, but I ended up just giving him a blast with my referee’s whistle right in his ear!8 yearsSomeone called saying they were from BT, but I’ve never even had their service.BT8 yearsBe careful, got a call from a guy claiming to be with BT Openreach but it was a total scam.

He said there was some malware issue and they had to access my computer to sort it out, or else we’d be offline for almost a month. Yeah right, like BT would just cut me off like that! Total scam, watch out folks.BT OpenreachBT8 yearsSo apparently BT Openreach is like the business arm of BT, which means they deal with the service providers, not us as the end users. Because of that, they shouldn’t be ringing you up out of the blue. When they called me, I just told them to do one, or something along those lines, with a bit of a cheeky tone. :)BT OpenreachBT8 yearsGot a call from 01562736831 today, sounded like an Indian bloke with a very thick accent. He said his name was Christopher John Wilson and claimed he was from BT’s Tech Department. Told me I had over 10,000 viruses and malware flooding all my gadgets through my router. He even gave me some ID number, a London head office address, and a phone number to ring him back. I just said I’d contact BT directly myself. Weird phonecall, felt a bit off.Christopher John WilsonBTsTechnical DepartmentLondon8 yearsSomeone pretending to be from the internet called me and was really rude, even asking if I couldn't read properly.
