6 yearsAbout five minutes ago, I got a call from a lady named Grace, who spoke with a foreign accent. She claimed I’d been overcharged £202 on a Sky subscription. I told her we don’t have Sky, but she insisted it was something to do with the internet provider, though I couldn’t quite catch what she said. She wanted my name, address, and details to sort out a refund. I told her I had no idea what she was talking about and wasn’t interested, then ended the call. It’s just another one of those scams, honestly, they really do get annoying after a while.GraceSky6 yearsAbout five minutes ago, I got a call from a woman who said her name was Grace, and she had quite an accent. She claimed I’d been charged £202 too much for a Sky subscription. I told her we don’t even have Sky, but she kept going on about Sky something - I couldn’t catch exactly what - and said it had to do with our internet provider. She wanted my details like name and address to sort out a refund. I told her I knew nothing about any Sky subscription and wasn’t interested, then just hung up. Looks like another one of those scams - I’m getting really tired of these calls!GraceSky7 yearsjust got a call from tom about some loft insulation work. seemed genuine enough but hadn't asked for anything specific yet. anyone else had a call from him?Tom7 yearsThis bloke with a really thick Indian accent called up out of the blue, saying he’d sort a refund for my Sky subscription. When I asked him where he was calling from, he just ended the call immediately. Bit dodgy if you ask me.7 yearsJust got a call but the line was really staticy and hard to hear.7 yearsI answered the phone but no one said anything, just total quiet.7 yearsDefinitely a scam, just like others have said before. These folks aren’t actually from Sky at all, they’re just con artists. Some young guy with a thick Asian accent ended up hanging up on me - honestly, felt pretty good!Sky7 yearsI got a call from a man who spoke with a really strong foreign accent saying I was owed money back from my Sky bill. I told him I wasn’t convinced he was genuine and suggested he send something in writing or an email if it was legit. Then I politely hung up. What struck me was he never asked for my name, so he might have been talking to anyone in the house who picked up the phone. Plus, I pay my Sky bill by direct debit, so if there was a refund, it’d go straight into my bank, no need for a call. These calls aren’t unusual for me. They never bother to confirm who they’re speaking to and often try to scare me or, like this time, dangle a refund to get my attention. I just don't trust cold callers at all - especially when it’s someone I don’t know.Sky7 yearsall i got was a simple "goodbye" then just silence. its like the call cut off or something? feels like these phone calls never actually end, just keep popping up no matter what. really getting a bit much now.7 yearskept calling non stop. claimed i was due £202 back from sky for overpayin on my landline. hung up straight away when i asked them which provider they were pretending to be from.KeptSky7 yearsGot a call from a man with an Indian accent saying I was owed £220 back on my Sky bill. I told him I wasn’t a Sky customer, but he insisted Sky charges only £10 a month. When I asked who he thought I was with instead, he couldn’t answer. Finally, he asked “So, no refund then?” I said no and he just hung up. Pretty clear this was a scam to me.Sky7 yearsGot a call from a woman with a foreign accent claiming to be from Sky's refund team. I just hung up straight away.Sky7 yearsGot a call from someone claiming Sky billed me extra by £202 last month and asked for my bank info to send it back. I told her I’m not even a Sky customer and that what she was doing must be against the law. Not long after that, she just ended the call. Classic scam move if you ask me.SkySubmit Your Own Report (01638 532500)
