Someone rang me saying they were from Sky Insurance or something along those lines.

Got a call from someone saying they were with Sky, saying my TV insurance had run out. When I asked who he reckoned my provider was, he said it right (probably from the landline number). Then I challenged him to answer some security questions and he just hung up.

Got a call on my landline today at 2.41pm from 01615601238. I looked up the number through the TPS and it seems like it's linked to a broadband scam. I've already reported it and blocked the number now.

Got a call from some bloke at 3:23pm on 9/10/24, claiming he wanted my opinion on a Sky maintenance plan. Thing is, I don't have Sky at all. He kept insisting he wasn’t trying to sell anything but kept pushing to chat about this dodgy package. Wouldn't recommend dealing with that guy or his firm, whatever they are.

These are the same scam calls from numbers like 0121 274 8622, 0161 560 1224, 0117 462 6984, and others. They keep ringing a home that's registered with the TPS, claiming to be from Sky, but they're totally fake. Avoid these dodgy callers!

These scammers keep ringing from numbers like 0161-560-1224, 0117-462-6984, 0131-563-2700 and 0121-274-8635. They call homes even though we're on the TPS and have no connection with Sky. Proper annoying!

I ignored the call since the number was unfamiliar to me, figured it was probably just some kind of scam.

Had a call from someone saying they were from Sky Protect, sounded like an Indian guy. He kept insisting I was paying £11.99 a month, which I definitely am not. I told him straight up he was a scammer, then ended the call.

Got a call on my home phone from a guy with an Indian accent but spoke really clear English. He kept saying we had some kind of Sky Assured policy and asked me to verify the policy number. When I told him it sounded fishy and that we don’t have any policy, he just hung up straight away. Definitely seemed like a spam call to me.
