Didn’t hang around, just ended the call right away - sounded like a scam to me.BT2 yearsI missed the call earlier and tried ringing back the number, but they hung up on me. Got a call this morning from 01863 769397 about some supposed survey. Feels like these might be connected somehow...2 yearsGot a call claiming to be from my bank, saying there was some big transaction and I needed to verify. Definitely a scam. This same number has been linked to loads of different services, very suspicious.2 yearsGot a call from someone saying they're with BT openreach, telling me my internet isn’t safe or something. I just hung up straight away.BT Openreach2 yearsGot a call from 01619610008 at 7:28 this morning but they just dropped when my answer machine picked up. I've started blocking all calls from 0161 numbers now whenever they ring.2 yearsGot a call this morning at 7:45 from someone saying they were with BT Openreach.BT Openreach2 yearsThe caller said they were with Microsoft.Microsoft2 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from BT Openreach, saying my IP had switched from private to public. They asked to get into my PC to fix it or something. I said I wasn’t just going to trust a random caller and that I’d ring Openreach myself instead. Then they suddenly just ended the call on me.BT OpenreachOpenreach2 yearsSome woman rang up saying she was with Microsoft computer help - total scam, don't fall for it!Microsoft2 yearsGot a robocall saying they’d withdraw £1,895 from my bank account for some Gaza conflict thing. Pretty sure it’s just another dodgy scam.Gaza2 yearsI got a recorded message from a woman claiming it was about bank fraud, but she never mentioned which bank for sure. Pretty obvious scam if you ask me.2 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be with EE, said they were following up on a complaint I made. They sounded like they knew all about my issue, but then started asking for my bank info to arrange a new direct debit. I wasn’t having it, told them I wouldn’t give any details, and ended the call.EE2 yearsGot a call from a lady with an Asian accent saying she was from Microsoft.

I had a feeling it was a scam, so I just kept playing along to waste her time.Microsoft2 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be BT Openreach, they had an Asian accent. Turns out, it was a scammer trying to trick Michelle.MichelleBT2 yearsGot a call early this morning around 7:55, but I missed it. No voicemail or anything left, so I’m guessing it was probably a scam. I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number, though I’m pretty sure they’ve got loads of others they use too.2 yearsWe've been getting calls from this number quite a few times now, but everytime we pick up, there's just complete silence on the other end. No one speaks, no background noise, nothing. It makes me think they want us to ring them back and maybe use some kind of tech trick to bill us for the call. I've never actually returned the call, so this is just my guess. Honestly, it feels like they're deliberately pestering us since it's happened more than once.2 yearsWoke up to a call really early in the morning. Picked up and after a bit of silence, this guy with an Indian accent just said "Hello" and then immediately cut the call. Strange!2 yearsGot a call earlier today from someone with a really thick foreign accent claiming they were from BT. They said my internet router was making things go wrong on their side and asked me to get on my computer so they could help sort it out. Definitely seemed like a scam to me.BT2 yearsGot another dodgy call this time from someone claiming to be "BT Openreach" (yeah, right)... When on earth is BT gonna do something about these obvious scammers? The accent was totally foreign and I could hardly understand a word.BT2 yearsAbsolute con! Honestly, BT really needs to sort this problem out for good.BT2 yearsGot a call from the "Scamchester" region but no voicemail left. Just ignored and blocked it straight away.Scamchester2 yearsGot a ring from this number, and the caller said they were from BT. They told me my internet changed from private to public just yesterday. Since my internet's actually with Virgin, it was pretty clear right away that it was a scam.BTVirgin2 yearsGot a call with some dodgy recorded message about fraud or something. Hung up quick 'cause it sounded totally fake. Just a pain, that one.2 yearsMy phone buzzed, so I answered it, but the person on the other end was just mumbling and then suddenly the line dropped. Looks like another one of those dodgy scam calls where they don’t even bother talking properly and just hang up.2 yearsWhen will they finally put an end to these annoying scam and nuisance calls? Surely, the people behind these numbers should be banned from using phones at all! It’s driving me mad.2 yearsGot an automated call telling me £1000 was taken from my bank for some Palestinian charity. Definitely wasn't me!Palestine2 yearsGot a phone call from someone saying they were with BT, telling me my internet wasn't set up right for private use. I’d only just got my PC serviced so it didn’t sit right with me. Plus, they never used my name, which made it clear it was a dodgy call. I ended it straight away.BT2 yearsSomebody rang me saying they were from Microsoft and wanted to chat about my PC. I told her I didn’t buy it and wasn’t sure she was legit. Then, I fibbed and said I didn’t own a computer at all. She cut the call straight away! Definitely a scam, watch out!Microsoft2 yearsMy wife picked up the home phone but there was silence on the other end. They didn’t say a word or leave a voicemail. Definitely won’t be picking up if they call back.2 yearsGot a call saying they'd be taking £1,895 from my bank account for some Gaza conflict thing. Sounded dodgy to me, so I just ignored it. Definitely another scam!Gaza2 yearsSome lady with an accent called claiming she was from Microsoft, said something about my PC. As soon as I called her out for trying to scam me, she just ended the call.Microsoft2 yearsOn the 8th of November 2024 around 12:28pm, I got a call from someone claiming to be from Visa or Debit. They told me there was a request for £1895.00 related to some conflict in Gaza. They said press one to accept or press two to talk to the fraud department. I just ended the call. Watch out, this is definitely a scam!Visa / DebitGaza2 yearsSo these lot said they were from BT Openreach, claiming my router was causing problems with the connection. Right, as if! I made it clear straight away I wasn’t buying it and they quickly hung up. Mission accomplished! Blocked the number after that.BT Openreach2 yearsOn the 6th of November 2024, around 12.40 in the afternoon, I got a voicemail on my answerphone from someone claiming there was a payment request for £1,895 to a charity in Gaza linked to my current account. The message said if I’d authorised it, I should press 1 to go ahead with the payment, but if not, press 2 to cancel and get in touch with the fraud team. Bit worrying as I never made any such payment!PalestineGaza2 yearsGot a call earlier claiming to be from BT Openreach, asking about my BT broadband. Problem is, I don’t even have BT broadband! Told them to stop wasting my time and they just hung up straight away. Wouldn’t share any details if I were you. Even though it’s a UK number, I reckon it’s someone overseas pretending. They seem to be using UK numbers to sound legit. This is the third time in two days they’ve rung an unlisted number like mine. Really annoying.BT OpenreachBT BroadbandUK2 yearsTotal rip-off, don’t trust it.2 yearsThey ring all the time, stopped picking up - gotta be dodgy callers for sure.2 yearsNo sound at all, no message left and nothing on text. Looks like some dodgy spam or phishing attempt to me.2 yearsGot a call from some bloke claiming he was from social housing in Pakistan. Didn’t buy it, so I just ended the call and blocked the number.Pakistan2 yearsMy phone stopped the call before it even rang, so later on I decided to look it up here and, just like I thought, it was exactly what I expected.4 yearsNo number showing here. Got a call earlier today and then another one right now. Didn’t pick up the first because my phone flagged it as ‘possible scam’, but when they called back I picked up and they just went silent and ended it! These calls are nonstop! I swear, I get way more rubbish calls than the ones I actually wanna take.4 yearsJust got a call from 01619610008 on my mobile. A bloke with what sounded like a Pakistani accent was asking for me by name and said he’d received info about my debts today. When I questioned him about what debts, he mentioned a credit card (which I don’t have!) and a bank loan (also not mine). He even brought up catalogue debts. I told him straight up he must have the wrong person because none of it was true. He actually asked if I was sure! I said I was dead certain and then he just cut me off. Total scammer, wasting their time and mine. Proper lowlife behaviour. Watch out, folks!4 yearsThere’s been quite a few reviews just recently saying the same thing, and the person on the other end didn’t say a word.4 yearsWas a call from some credit check team or something, but they wouldn’t say who was asking.
