Phone number ☎️ 01618095294 👆 is reported as a persistent scam number frequently impersonating well-known UK providers like TalkTalk and Virgin Media. Callers use deceptive tactics, including fake technical issues and urgent service threats, often accompanied by foreign accents and aggressive behaviour. Many recipients experience repeated calls, sometimes several a day, with occasional obscured or withheld numbers making blocking difficult. These calls commonly aim to deceive individuals into providing personal information or access to devices, with some distressing attempts involving emotional manipulation.

Users are advised to block the number, avoid engaging, and report incidents to authorities such as Action Fraud to help combat this ongoing nuisance.

someone called claiming to be from “talk talk” but ended up shouting all sorts of rubbish at me ( fttti# cH## and the like). i later spoke with the actual talk talk people, and they said it’s definitely a scam. got a mate who knows what he’s doing looking into it now. honestly, i’m ready to go on a wild goose chase and track the idiot down no matter how far it takes me. just wait until he realises who i really am. maybe time for a new pair of trousers, eh???

I've gotten loads of calls, probably about six or more, from people claiming to be from TalkTalk or BT, but they all sound like they're from abroad. We've told them over and over to stop calling, but they just keep ringing. My husband actually picked up one of the calls once and was able to catch the number, but the rest we couldn't track down at all.

I got a call from someone claiming to be with TalkTalk, saying they were about to cut off my service. When I just said alright, that’s fine, they ended up just hanging up on me! So weird lol.

Let it ring, no voicemail left so I decided to look it up here. Cheers for the info, I'm definitely adding it to my blacklist now.

Some dodgy lot tried to break into my computer and nick my cash, so I just told them to shove off and blocked them straight away.

This number has rung me twice today pretending to be from TalkTalk, and I had three other calls from them earlier this week. It's really distressing, especially since we're quite old.

This number has been ringing me loads recently, often showing up as “withheld” so I can't block it. Today, they slipped up and showed their number. I quickly blocked it and reported the whole thing to Action Fraud online. I’d say everyone else should do the same, might help track down these scammers. The caller claimed to be a TalkTalk tech, saying there was an issue with my internet. Nah mate, I’m not falling for that one!

Got yet another annoying call from a different area code, making it four in total now. Lucky for me, all of them ended up blocked.

This number has rung me up a few times now, and all I caught was someone with a foreign accent repeating 'Talk Talk.' I'm pretty certain it's some kind of phishing scam.

I got a call from this number claiming to be from TalkTalk, and it felt pretty genuine at first - they even had that typical call centre background noise which made it sound legit. But I had the same gut feeling as others here, it’s a total scam. Best thing to do is not to engage with them. I just told them I’d call the company back myself at a time that suits me, and they quickly hung up. That’s a dead giveaway they’re not genuine at all.

Got a call earlier from someone saying they were with TalkTalk. They insisted I had to unplug my router and do some odd stuff to keep my internet working. I wasn’t convinced and said I’d ring TalkTalk back on their real number to check things out. As soon as I mentioned that, the person just hung up straightaway.

Somebody rang me claiming they were from TALK TALK, but honestly, their info was all over the place and they barely made sense. Definitely a scam in my book!

A call came through supposedly from TalkTalk, so I asked what the purpose was, but then they just hung up on me. I've blocked the number now.

Got a call from this number and it really upset me. A little kid's voice was begging, "please help, bring some food, I'm starving" - honestly, it was horrible. I'm definitely going to notify the police about it. If it's just some sick prank trying to get people to ring back, it's absolutely disgusting.

Dont know who called, had about 3 different numbers today alone, one claimed to be "talk talk". Calls started early, around 8am. I get loads every day and usually just ignore them, but I do check 1471 sometimes and call back if its a genuine caller. Proper annoying.

Got a call from this number earlier, and luckily I looked it up here before answering. Definitely dodged a bullet, so I've gone ahead and blocked it now.

I've had a couple of calls from this number lately. My phone’s set to send unknown callers straight to voicemail with a friendly message asking them to leave their number or a message, promising a callback. Not a single message was left, which is a dead giveaway it’s a scam. Did my usual check on this site and blocked the number immediately.

I told them to quit ringing me and didn’t bother to check who they were. The guy, who sounded Indian, just shouted a load of insults at me and then hung up. Definitely not a proper business.

Got a call from 01618095294 saying they were Virgin Media and needed to test my router speed, even asked me to switch on my laptop. Nah, no way am I falling for that!

They claimed to be Virgin Media but I was pretty sure it was a scam since they rang me on my mobile.

Had no clue who was calling as it wasn’t a number I knew, so I just let it go to voicemail. When there was no message, I decided to block it!

They called saying they were from Virgin Media and started telling me to press the Windows key and the letter R on my keyboard. When I asked for the password, they suddenly acted like they couldn’t hear me at all. I was sure it wasn’t really Virgin - they phoned my mobile, and I’m certain Virgin always uses the landline.

Got a call claiming to be from Virgin Media, asking me to press the windows key and the letter r on my computer. When I asked for the password, they acted like they couldn’t hear me at all. I was suspicious from the start since they rang my mobile instead of the landline, which Virgin would’ve definitely used. Pretty obvious it was a scam.
