Got a call at 1.10pm on the 3rd of Feb 2017. The person said she was from BT, sounded like a woman with an Indian accent. Could hear office sounds in the back. I told her to stop bothering me and hang up, cause she was talking nonsense, and said I’d report her if she kept on.

Received a call at 1:10 PM on 3rd February 2017, purporting to be from BT. The caller was a woman with an Indian accent. There was a noticeable delay in her speaking as I could hear background noise, likely from a busy office with people chatting. When she finally addressed me, she confirmed my name, albeit mispronouncing it, and claimed to be calling from BT. Her accent was distinctly Indian, lacking any British intonation. I firmly told her that I wasn’t interested and asked her to cease the call. I mentioned that I would be reporting her number to the Call Preference Service and other watchdog sites, which is why I’m documenting this now.

I keep getting calls from a woman with an asian accent saying there’s problems with my BT line, but I don’t even have BT. I told her I’d report her to Ofcom and she just ended the call. She’s been ringing me almost every day for the past couple of weeks at about 7.40am and 7.40pm, complaining about issues with BT or my internet. It’s really annoying and feels like persistent harassment, this needs to be blocked asap.

Of late, I've been inundated with calls supposedly from my broadband provider, some from Manchester, others from unknown regions. They appear to be VoIP calls, employing various numbers in an attempt to mislead my call blocker. I've made it a habit to dial 1477 to report these nuisance calls as fraudulent.

Claimed he was calling from BT, but I informed him we're not customers. He just wouldn’t let it go, rambling on about the router issues. I said I had to hang up, and then he abruptly cut the call!

Got a call from someone who said they were from BT, said they needed my router login to do an update. Sounded fishy to me, probably trying to hack in or something dodgy like that. Definitely seemed risky.

This morning, I received a rather dubious phone call from someone purporting to be from BT, stating there was an urgent security problem concerning my IP address. I decided to keep him chatting and, rather outlandishly, he then instructed me to head to the TeamViewer website to download their software. Naturally, I refrained from doing so and confronted him about the absurdity of BT asking me to install software that could potentially grant him control over my computer. This seemed to infuriate him; he became increasingly aggressive, demanding I proceed with the installation. He even threatened that my phone line would be cut if I didn't comply. I turned the tables and challenged him to go ahead with it, and that’s when he abruptly hung up, blocking my number. I took a moment to collect myself, rebooted my router to acquire a fresh IP address, and subsequently reported the incident to my local provider, KCOM, who will relay this disturbing situation to the police.

Got calls from this number claiming to be from the windows support team and then even from some kind of funeral service. Definitely a scam, don’t trust it!

This number keeps ringing me around half past eight in the morning, but as soon as I answer, they just cut the line. Very peculiar behaviour, I must say!

Gave them a ring, expecting the usual nonsense about how my computer was going to be disconnected. The chap had a rather pronounced Pakistani accent and I said, “I don’t think so!” before they told me to bugger off and hung up. What a complete farce! Just another scammer trying their luck!

Received a rather odd phone call this morning from someone purporting to be from BT, claiming there was a breach concerning my IP address. I decided to play along, and he promptly instructed me to head over to TeamViewer's website to download some software. Naturally, I refrained from doing so and pushed back, questioning why BT would want me to install software that would allow him remote access to my computer. This seemed to irritate him immensely, and he insisted I install it right away, warning that failing to comply would result in my phone line being severed. I called his bluff and he then threatened that my connection would be immediately cut. Shortly after that, he ended the call and seemingly blocked my number. After taking a moment to let it settle, I rebooted my router to secure a new IP address, then reached out to KCOM, my local provider, to ensure they could relay this disturbing incident to the authorities.

They rang me super early, like 7.30 in the morning, and ended up waking my baby. I’m signed up to the telephone preference service, so no idea how they managed to get hold of my number. Seems like it’s one that an auto dialler can just guess easily.

Received a call at 10:15 on the 2nd of February, 2017, from someone claiming to be with TalkTalk. He insisted that my internet service would be terminated within 24 hours. I decided to toy with him, leading him in circles to see how far he’d go. Eventually, I revealed that I was onto his little game and that my conversation was being monitored by the authorities, who were pinpointing his whereabouts. To my amusement, he hung up the phone without a word!

Claimed to be from BT, chatting about my internet connection… but as soon as I probed a bit, they cut the line. This is the second time it’s happened this week! Strange, if you ask me.

These talk talk calls are really annoying - I’ve told them to stop but they just keep ringing. I just let it ring out to my voicemail since they never say anything, then use 1471 to see who it is. They just keep coming back though.
