Phone number ☎️ 01628521115 👆 is reported as a persistent and annoying scam call claiming to be from Virgin Media, often featuring callers with Indian accents or using popular names like Jenny. They allege problems with internet speeds or hacking attempts, trying to get victims to check their connection online. Many calls go silent or disconnect abruptly if questioned.

Got a call from some bloke called Joe, speaking with an Indian accent, telling me there's issue with my internet. I told him that’s odd since I don't even have internet in the first place. Next thing I know, he just hangs up. Works like a charm every single time!

I got a call from a woman who said her name was ‘Jenny’ and claimed to be from VirginMedia. Funny thing is, the last three dodgy calls I had all came from someone with that same name - maybe it’s a popular one in India or something. She told me they were ringing because my internet speed had dropped and suggested someone else could be using my wifi without permission. She was really eager for me to check my speed online to “prove” the problem. Honestly, expecting people to believe Virgin do one-on-one customer calls like that is just a bit daft.

Lately, I've noticed an increase in calls where I answer, hear silence for a moment, and then the phone just drops the call. Quite a few are coming from private or blocked numbers too. It's baffling that nothing's done to stop this kind of annoying behaviour.

Just got a call from this number not long ago, but there was nothing on the other end, just complete silence. I swore a bit, ended the call, and decided to block them straightaway.

Anytime I'm unsure about a call, I don't say anything at first and just wait to see if they mention my name. Usually, like with this one, the caller or automated system just hangs up.

Got a call from some random number super early in the morning. Tried ringing back but no one answered.

This bloke was proper insistent, claiming he was ringing from Reading about my computer being hacked. Over the next ten minutes, I got a bunch of calls coming in from various numbers.

Just had another phone call from someone pretending to be Virgin Media, clearly up to no good. Loads of these scams seem to come from overseas, but plenty are run from right here in the UK. Yet somehow, these fraudsters keep getting away with it, bombarding us with lies and unwanted calls and messages every single day. The way our government turns a blind eye to crooked behaviour, like what we've seen recently in Parliament, makes you wonder what hope regular folks have of getting any justice at all.

I got a ring from a number in Gloucestershire, some woman claiming she was from Virgin about my internet. Thing is, I don’t even have Virgin! The lady sounded foreign, so I flipped it back on her and asked if she’d be alright with me calling one of her relatives. Made her a bit quiet after that!

I had an encounter with a dodgy broadband scammer who pretended to be from Virgin Media. They were trying to convince me to let them test my internet speed and connection, but it was all too obvious that something was amiss. Definitely not the real deal!

Got a call from someone claiming to be Virgin Media, saying they wanted to check my internet. Honestly, which provider would ring you just to check your connection? Total scam, easy to spot!
