01619649912 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01619649912 👆 is reported as a nuisance and likely scam number frequently impersonating major UK broadband providers like BT Openreach, Virgin Media, and Sky. Callers claim issues with internet service and attempt to engage recipients in troubleshooting or appointments but often hang up abruptly or provide vague, unverified information. Many respondents have encountered silent calls or automated messages simply saying goodbye. The calls are often unsolicited, sometimes aggressive or insistent, and typically cease upon refusal to engage. Users widely advise ignoring, not answering, and blocking the number due to its repetitive, intrusive nature and potential link to fraudulent activity. The number does not appear associated with legitimate service providers, and caution is highly recommended.

Got a call from this number at around 10.25 this morning but left it unanswered since I didn’t know who it was. No voicemail or anything left on my answerphone either.

Hi, this is (My first name) speaking. Then some bloke says, "I'm John, ringing about your internet." It all sounded a bit too cosy, so I asked, "John who?" And then, just like that, the call cut off.

Got a call from someone saying they were with BT Openreach, claiming my internet was rubbish. Told them straight up, the reason my internet's bad is coz I’m not even with BT. Honestly, they should find a proper job instead of bothering people!

Got a call from someone claiming to be Virgin Media, said my internet wasn’t connecting properly or some tech issue slowing me down. I was half asleep by then and just told him I already had an engineer visit last week (which I did) and everything seemed alright. He kept going on with the same spiel so I asked if he wanted to set up another engineer visit. Suddenly, he just hung up. Weird! I’m gonna block that number straight away.

I let the person on the line know they were speaking to the National Telephone Fraud Office, and they just ended the call.

Somebody called me acting like they were from Sky, saying there was an issue with slow internet and they needed to fix it. They were really impolite and just cut the call off on me.

Got a call from 01619649912 claiming to be from BT Openreach about some internet issues. I wasn’t convinced at all, told them so and hung up straight away. Pretty obvious it was a scam. What’s annoying is it’s coming from a landline number - why on earth can’t these scammers be tracked and stopped?

Today, on 12/10/2020 at about 10:28, I got a call from a bloke claiming to be with BT Open Reach. I just stayed silent and he ended up hanging up.

Got a call from someone with an Indian or Pakistani accent claiming to be from BT Openreach. He told me there was an issue with my internet speed, but I checked it during the call and it seemed okay. He asked me to go onto a website, which I declined. Then he passed me to another guy, a ‘supervisor’ apparently. I told him the speed was fine and before I could say more, he just hung up. Not usually the type to spend their time like that!

Someone rang me saying they were from BT, but we aren’t customers of theirs. I told the bloke we’re signed up to the Telephone Preference Service and that cold calls like this aren’t allowed. He quickly hung up after that.

Whenever I pick up, this number just ends the call right away. Seems like a scam to me. Better stay away and don’t bother answering. Just block it for safety.

I've gotten this a few times now, where a recorded message just says "goodbye" and then the call cuts off. There's never been anything else after that, no weird follow-ups or anything like that. So far, no sign of any ongoing bother from them.

Got a call earlier today, 12/10/2020 at about 10:28, from a bloke claiming to be with BT Open Reach. I just didn't answer and the line went dead straight away.

Got a call from this number claiming my router was trying to contact Sky’s server and my internet would start lagging soon. I told them my wifi was fine, but they kept pushing saying it would get worse. The bloke was really pushy, wanted me to waste 15 minutes following his instructions to avoid the issue. I declined and ended the call. Definitely not Sky - sounded too aggressive and a bit rude.

I answered my phone this morning around 8:45 and there was just silence, then suddenly a beep and it ended. Feels like it might have been a scam call.

I picked up the phone and all I could hear was quiet for a bit before a robotic voice came on saying “Goodbye.”
