Twice the phone rang while we were out, but neither call managed to get by the answering service. There were also a couple of other calls from different 0161 numbers, but they didn't attempt to leave a voicemail either.

I got this weird voicemail at 2:48pm from some automated bloke with a really slow voice. The message had already started before the beep, saying something like "BT here, just letting you know your internet and landline will be cut off from today. Press 1 to speak to tech support to sort it out or press 2 to proceed with cancellation.” It’s the third time today that I’ve had this exact message, but from different 0161 numbers: 01619990753, 01610257385, and now 0161783290. Really annoying.

Got three calls today from the same number, each time a recorded voice saying my phone and internet service would be disconnected today if I didn’t press a button to fix it. Felt like a total scam.

Got a text warning me my internet would be cut off unless I pressed 1 or 2 to get help. Pretty sure it’s some kinda scam.

I got a recorded message claiming my broadband and landline would be cut off today, said it was a call forwarded by British Telecom. It gave me two choices, press 1 or 2 to listen to how the disconnection would happen, then the call just hung up.

Got a call from 0161783290, some bloke with a rough voice telling me to press 1 to renew or 2 to cancel something. Left me a message, sounded proper dodgy.

Got a call from almost the same number saying they’d disconnect my BT line and internet, which is weird cause I don’t even have either.. The number they gave doesn’t even match up. Strange!

Got pretty much the exact same voicemail as 01614525629 - totally feels like a scam to me.

Got a robo call from 0161 783 290 earlier saying if I don't press 2 to speak to tech support, my internet and phone would get disconnected. Just had another one from a similar 161 number with the exact same warning. Really annoying!
