Some bloke rang me up saying I'd been in some sort of crash and asked for my credit card details. I just laughed and told him his mum would be covering the bill instead!

This number seems to ring me every couple of weeks, and when they do, it's typically some mumbling little chap or a pesky automated message. It's a right nuisance! you'd think BT would eventually do something about it, but then again, I'd sooner see pigs take to the skies than that happening!

I received a couple of phone calls today; the first caller claimed he could halt those pesky cold calls but then swiftly started probing for my bank card information. The second call was quite odd-there was complete silence on the line before I heard a rather abrupt 'goodbye'. Quite peculiar, to say the least!

I received a rather dubious phone call from a chap who had an Asian accent, purporting to be from B.T. He claimed there was an issue with my broadband due to my IP address being misused by folks overseas, which, in turn, has allegedly caused my internet to be a tad sluggish. He insisted on conducting some tests and asked whether I had a computer or mobile device nearby. My instincts were immediately on high alert, so I decided to reach out to B.T. directly through their website via my mobile instead. This con artist even supplied me with a phoney job reference number and a number to reach him, which only added to my suspicion. I’m quite cautious about sharing any personal details with cold callers. When I inquired about his name, he said it was Albert Cooper; being a bit cheeky, I replied that I was Pope Francis, and then politely ended the call.

I picked up the phone and they just cut me off. Happened to me the day before as well.

They claimed to be from BT. When I told them I don’t take cold calls, they just told me to f*** off and then ended the call.

I received a rather dubious phone call from someone with an Asian accent, who insisted they were from BT. They claimed that my broadband had been compromised by external hackers. It immediately struck me as a scam designed to gain access to my internet connection and infiltrate my system. He then passed me on to a so-called "floor manager," who instructed me to press the Windows key and R simultaneously to open the Run dialogue, where I was meant to type in "event vwr" to access the event viewer. He was supposedly going to demonstrate the hacking incident taking place in California-all very fishy! When I pressed him about which hub I was using, he couldn't provide a clear answer. After wasting a fair bit of time on this, I mentioned that I needed to restart my computer and promptly disconnected the Wi-Fi. It became abundantly clear that I was dealing with a scammer who was simply wasting my time!

Got a call from this number. Strange thing is, some automated voice just said "Goodbye" and then it just cut off. Feels like one of those scam calls.

Got a call from BT about my internet, total spam. I dragged the call out for ages just to waste their time and hopefully rack up some charges. Then I blocked the number using BT Protect (1572) service. Hopefully that's the last time they bother me.

I received a call on the 10th of July from an Asian chap who introduced himself as Keith. He was apparently ringing about some "issues" with my broadband connection. I wasn't convinced by what he was saying, so I cut the conversation short. Seems like the call blocking option is utterly useless!

I mentioned to my elderly mum that the callers claimed to be from the "Exeter Management Company." Thankfully, she had the good judgement to hang up on them.

I've received calls from a dodgy individual claiming there's an issue with my broadband connection.

It's absolutely infuriating when a robot bids you farewell! What a right pain!

No one spoke on the other end, just dead silence.

I received a call from someone with an Asian accent amidst a lot of background noise, claiming to be from BT. They said there were issues with my broadband being hacked by others. Having looked into it further, I suspect this is an elaborate attempt to gain access to my broadband for nefarious purposes. I’ve reported the incident to BT, and they've corroborated that it's indeed a scam.

i tried calling back but no one picked up and the number just wasnt reachable at all.

Got a call from someone saying they were Raj at BT and wanted to get into my laptop - total scam, be warned!

There was absolutely nobody there when I picked up the phone,

Purports to be from BT, yet quite evidently isn't.

No one spoke when I answered, just silence. Weirdest call I've got.

Lately, we’ve been inundated with calls, and every time I pick up the phone, I’m greeted by a recorded message that simply says “goodbye” before hanging up. It's quite puzzling, honestly!
