8 yearsGot a call I didn't pick up and the message was just “bye”. Seems like a scam to me.8 yearsGot a call from an asian guy who said he was from the first time fill, been chasing us for 2 days. We told him we’re actually with Sky, then suddenly he switched and said he’s from Openreach. What’s worse, we got calls from these same lot a couple of months back, so we’ve already reported them to BT. Proper annoying!SkyOpenreachBT8 yearsWas this really Indian bloke on the phone? Proper aggressive fella. Told him straight up I knew he was up to no good and he just went nuts. Ended up saying he'd get our phone line cut off, ridiculous!India8 yearsGot a call from someone with an asian accent pretending to be from BT Openreach, saying our router was faulty. My missus wasn’t having any of it and just ended the call straight away.BT Openreach8 yearsI got a really mad guy on the line, sounded Indian and said his name was Pete, claiming he was with BT. If you dare to hang up, he just calls right back and yells some more. Proper annoying!PeteBT8 yearsFor three days straight, this guy kept ringing my mum and ended up getting really hostile.8 yearssome guy with an asian accent rang up saying he was from bt openreach, telling me they spotted malware coming through our internet. problem is, bt ain't our provider and we work in it ourselves, so we're pretty clued up on security. when i started asking him things like which computer was infected, he quickly hung up. definitely sounds like a dodgy scam to me.BT OpenreachBT8 yearsHad no clue who it was cause they just cut the call suddenly, but I could hear a busy call centre noise in the background.8 yearsI received a call on 20/09/2018 at 09:42 from a woman with an Asian accent who said, "Hello, how are you today? I'm calling about your internet." I told her, "This is a scam, please go away," but she cut off the call just as I was getting to "please go." Definitely seems like a scam. Since the number looks like an 0161 code, maybe the police can take action?8 yearsyet another annoying scam call, this time pretending to be from bt openreach. these days i just ask them for their mum’s phone number, and when they want to know why, i say i’ll run the same scam on her and ask how they’d like that. maybe it makes some of them think twice, or maybe it just goes in one ear and out the other.BT Openreach8 yearsSome bloke claiming to be from BT Openreach said my router was having issues and told me to turn on my computer. I told him to hang on while I got it going, but then I just went off and had a read of a book. So those few minutes he was hanging about waiting on me, at least he wasn’t bothering some other poor sod.BT Openreach8 yearsthis person said they were from bt open reach. they began with asking “how’s everything today?” and “how you doing?” before anything else.BT Openreach8 yearsLately, I’ve been picking up calls I reckon are scams and answering with a kinda sharp "’ello". Today, a guy with an Asian accent said "hello" back. I just shot back with an even tougher "’ello!" and then he just hung up. Proper fed up with these scam calls!8 yearsgot a call from someone claiming to be with bt saying my internet speed was all over the place. i asked what for and he said he could fix it. he was clearly clueless though - total scam. told them they should be seriously embarrassed trying to scam folks like that.BT8 yearsGot a call saying my internet was really slow and they could sort it out if I logged on. Told them I didn’t own a computer and it was obviously a scam.8 yearsAbout 20 minutes ago I got a call from the same number, felt pretty dodgy just like the others mentioned here.8 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were with BT Openreach, sounded like they had an Indian accent. They told me my internet was slow because of a problem with my router and said they could sort it out. Asked me what colour the light on my router was, then wanted me to search something on my computer. I had a feeling it was a scam to get control of my PC. I told them my internet was fine, called them a scammer and ended the call. Next time, I'll just ask for my name and account number and hang up if they can't provide those details.BT Openreach8 yearsHonestly, don’t you find these calls so annoying? What’s worse is that all it takes is some scammer tricking just one person every day to make a decent amount of cash. I really wish there was a way for our phone networks to stop them from even getting through to numbers here in the UK.UKSubmit Your Own Report (0161 494 1164)
