01613176258 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01613176258 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance number associated with aggressive and deceptive calls claiming to be from TalkTalk. Callers often pressurise recipients to grant computer access or discuss internet issues, resorting to rude behaviour if challenged. The volume and frequency of calls have notably increased following a previous TalkTalk data breach, causing significant distress and frustration. Victims report various tactics including multiple daily calls, silence, or abrupt hang-ups. Blocking options are limited, and customers frequently recommend alternative call-blocking devices or changing providers to manage the harassment. Overall, these calls are widely recognised as scams, with genuine TalkTalk never initiating such contact, so caution and avoidance are strongly advised.

I’m pretty sure someone at TalkTalk must be giving out our numbers abroad or something because almost every annoying call I get is linked to them. It’s the only way these people would have our digits, right? I’ve complained to TalkTalk about this, but the calls keep coming. If it doesn’t stop soon, I might just switch to another company or get rid of my landline altogether.

I can hardly believe the nerve of these idiots! Their appalling remarks absolutely infuriated my wife when she refused to comply with their demands. Honestly, I’d love nothing more than to send them packing with a swift CTRL + R - a fate far worse than just a slap on the wrist would be far too kind for their type!

Today we’ve received a few of those calls, so we got in touch with TalkTalk and told them it’s getting a bit much. I also asked about how many calls you can block, and they said they’re planning to increase the limit from 10 up to 100, but didn’t give a date for when that’ll start. They did say they’ve blocked that number on their end though.

So I got a call from someone claiming to be TalkTalk, probably just the usual nonsense. The bloke said he could give me my ID number, which made no sense. I just mentioned the scam that hit me earlier this year and hung up straight away.

Kept ringing a US mobile a few times but it showed up as a call from Manchester on my phone. I chose not to answer it.

They purport to be from TalkTalk. Just hang up and if you can, add them to your block list.

My mum's been getting calls from this same number loads of times every day, it's really getting on our nerves and feels kinda like harrassment.

I get calls like these at least three times a week, pretending to be from TalkTalk. Honestly, TalkTalk would never phone you out of the blue - just hang up straight away. I once asked who they wanted to speak to, and they just dropped the call. Sometimes they even use my name, so it seems they’ve got quite a bit of info from that TalkTalk hack.

No idea who called, and honestly, no interest. Let my voicemail handle it. They didn’t bother to leave a message, so guess they’re not that urgent. They've been blocked now anyway.

I've had calls from the so-called technical team at TalkTalk, but they ring from all sorts of different numbers. They want me to download something on my computer to fix a supposed router issue. As soon as I say I’m not a TalkTalk customer or that I won’t do it, they just hang up. When I do try to respond, they get quite nasty and pushy. It’s pretty annoying.

I got a call from these lot earlier today as well. They say they're from Talk Talk, but really, Talk Talk should do something to put a stop to it! I've been a Talk Talk customer for both my broadband and phone, and ever since their systems got hacked last year, the number of dodgy calls like this has gone through the roof.

After months of getting plagued by annoying calls like these, I took the plunge and got myself a BT call-blocking phone with a base for about £25. Since then, I’ve blocked this number and loads of others like it. Honestly, it’s been so worth it - the relief I feel now is priceless.

Talktalk called us yet again, the sixth time just today! They're always 'B' scanners or whatever. My missus pretended to be interested and they just dropped the call, but they came back later on. This keeps happening loads every week, and it all began after that Talktalk hack from over a year ago.

Had a call from this guy Steve claiming to be from Talk Talk. Funny how loads of these scammers go by Steve or David. I just told him the Police were tracking the call and he hung up straight away.

That Talk Talk scam call popped up again. I didn’t say a word, just let the phone sit there, and eventually they gave up and ended the call.

Today I got three calls from the same number, and I told them I really hoped someone would scam their mum. These lot are proper scum, honestly, they deserve to be kicked out once caught.

They said they were from Talk Talk, but it was definitely a scam. I kept them chatting for about an hour just to see what would happen. When I finally told them what I really thought, they started swearing at me and then just ended the call.

I got a call from TalkTalk again, same old story. I told them I’m no longer a TalkTalk customer, and the next thing they ask is if I’m with Sky now. Couldn’t help but chuckle before I just ended the call. Total scam attempt if you ask me.

Loads of calls from folks pretending to be from talk talk, but they're actually scammers. They usually tell me there's something wrong with my computer or router that needs sorting. I’m well clued up on these tricks, so the moment I say I’m not online, they just hang up on me. This has been going on at least three times daily for a few weeks now, and it’s getting right on my nerves. One time, my son picked up and they even had the nerve to swear at him!

Utterly dodgy callers! They claim to be from Talk Talk, insisting that my computer is compromised and that they need to take control of it. Quite the opposite is true! When I mentioned that my Internet is down, they abruptly hung up and even had the audacity to hurl insults at my son. It's becoming a right nuisance, as these pests have been ringing incessantly for weeks now-sometimes multiple times a day!

I usually find these blokes quite amusing. Today, a chap named 'SAM' rang me regarding my sluggish internet. After the standard drivel, he inquired what I was looking at on my screen. I cheekily remarked it was an image of a 'naked lady'. He promptly told me to shut it down, to which I chuckled and explained that it had taken me yonks to download. He then requested that I press the ctrl key while simultaneously holding down the 'R'. I replied that I couldn’t do that at the moment as I was otherwise occupied with my other hand. It seemed like he eventually grasped my intent, as he asked if I possessed a middle finger. I confirmed I did and then asked with feigned enthusiasm where he suggested I might place it, exclaiming, "Oh do enlighten me!" And oh, he certainly did! Let’s just say, writing in that style has never been my forte!

I received a call claiming to be from BT, insisting I was experiencing issues with my router and that they were there to assist. Instead of engaging, I simply hung up. Just a few minutes later, the same number rang again; this time, there was silence, and suddenly a robotic voice chimed in with a curt "Goodbye". Quite peculiar, really!

I got a call from someone saying they were from Talk Talk, but I quickly said I knew it was a scam. Then the guy goes, "What makes you say that? I've never called you before!" Total nonsense if you ask me.

Received a call where there was nothing but silence, and then a robotic voice chimed in to bid farewell. Quite peculiar, to say the least!
