7 yearsOffcom really should have a look into this matter.Ofcom8 yearsThis number keeps ringing my 92-year-old mum every day, saying they're from BT Openreach and that her internet is running slow. The thing is, she doesn’t even have broadband. I reckon she’ll have to phone BT herself to get this sorted out.BT OpenreachBT8 yearsGot a call that felt like harassment, real annoying stuff.8 yearsI got a call from this number yesterday, with someone pretending to be from BT Openreach - same as a couple of times last week. They’re definitely scammers.

Who are these jokers?8 yearsGot a call from some woman claiming to be Janet Wilson, sounded like she was from somewhere in Asia. She started going on about my internet being slow or something. I just let her have it, told her straight up I knew she was trying to scam me. Told her to stop wasting her time and find real work. Reckon her family must be well disappointed if they're aware she’s scamming old people and those who can't really defend themselves. Called her out for being a nasty piece of work, full of shame. Not long after, she cut the call.Janet Wilson8 yearsi just got a call from this asian lady who was really hard to get a word from, claiming to be from “bt openreach”. she said she knew my internet was glitchy and buffering loads and offered to fix it. i kept quiet and went along with it for a bit, then said my internet was fine and never slowed down. she just cut the call right there. another one to add to the scammer list for sure.BT Openreach8 yearsA guy with an Asian accent called saying he was from BT Openreach.
