Phone number ☎️ 01639100209 👆 is reported as a persistent scam involving callers claiming to be from BT offering a service to stop nuisance calls. Callers often use Indian or Eastern European accents, are sometimes silent or hang up abruptly if personal information is not provided. They appear to have some personal details but seek further sensitive data like date of birth or bank information, which users are advised not to disclose. The provided phone numbers are typically fake or disconnected, and the calls frequently include background noise suggesting a call centre operation. Victims report annoyance and concern, with recommendations to register with official services such as the Telephone Preference Service and BT's genuine nuisance call blocking options like Call Protect. Reporting to authorities like Action Fraud and Ofcom is advised.

Just like before, I told them it was a scam. A woman with an Indian accent answered and said, "ok No Problem." I shot back, "You ARE the problem!"

I got a call from a woman speaking with a really odd accent, maybe Eastern European, and her manner was pretty stiff and unnatural. She said something about a new scheme starting up in the UK to block annoying calls. She asked me to jot down the number 0800 150150. Then she mentioned I'd receive a permission letter in about 10 days and tried to confirm my address. I didn’t reply and just kept quiet, eventually she hung up - hopefully thinking I’d disconnected. There was loads of noise in the background, like a bloke chatting away while handling multiple calls.

I reckon this is definitely a scam, and folks should report it to action fraud. To me, it sounds like one of those automated voices that's been set up to gather details and reply depending on what you say. If it gets stuck or doesn’t know what to say, it just cuts the call off. You also can’t ring the number back, which is a bit fishy.

If you’ve got BT, you should defo get in touch and sign up for their nuisance call block service, it doesn’t cost a penny. After you get a dodgy call, all you gotta do is ring 1572 and do what it says, takes barely two button presses, and that number’s stopped from ringing you again. Proper handy!

Some bloke called Owen rang me claiming to be from BT and tried to get my credit card details. Total scammer, watch out! I couldn't believe he had the nerve to ask for that info. Definitely dodgy. If you get a call from someone named Owen saying he’s from BT, don’t give them anything. I just hung up straight away, didn’t trust it one bit.

I got a phone call from this number claiming to be BT, a woman with an Indian accent. She was telling me I could stop these annoying calls by calling 0800 150 150 to report them. She sounded quite persuasive, talking about how it was a free service especially aimed at elderly people, and then asked for my date of birth. Once I mentioned that BT wouldn’t ask for that info, she cut the call. Turns out 0800 150 150 isn’t even a BT number. Since I use Call Protect on 1572, I’ve now blocked 01639 100209 so it goes straight to junk next time!

Today around 9 o’clock i got a call from this number with some bloke asking if i wanted to stop nuisance calls by dialling 0800150150. He then started asking if i pay my bt bill by direct debit, which bank i used and what date the payment goes out. Thing is, i don’t even have a bt account! So, i called bt to tell them about it and they said they would never do anything like that. I also phoned my bank who told me as long as i didn’t give out any details, there’s no risk of anything dodgy happening.

Got a call earlier from some bloke claiming to be from BT. Told me I could ring 0800150150 to block nuisance calls. He already had my name and address, which was a bit creepy. Then asked for my date of birth to prove I was an OAP and said it’d be free if I was one. When I said I’m not an OAP, he just ended the call. Very odd.

I had a call from a chap with an Indian accent who said he was representing BT. He assured me I wouldn’t be receiving any more nuisance calls. If I did, he instructed me to ring 0800 150150 to lodge a complaint. Strangely enough, that number used to be a free helpline for health-related queries, but they’ve seemingly shut it down, likely due to this dodgy operation. The number that 1471 in Neath provided also turned out to be a complete fabrication and doesn’t exist. I didn’t stick around long enough to understand how they manage to con people out of their cash with this ruse.

I received a call from a gentleman with an Indian accent purporting to be from BT, who assured me that I wouldn't receive any further nuisance calls. He also mentioned that should I encounter any issues, I could ring 0800 150150 to report them. Interestingly, I recall that number being associated with a healthcare helpline in the past; however, it seems to have been discontinued, likely due to this scam. Additionally, the Neath number provided through the 1471 service appears to be nonexistent as well. I didn’t stay on the line long enough to uncover the specifics of their money-making scheme, but it certainly raised some red flags.

A bloke with an Indian accent said he was calling from BT, telling me I wouldn’t get any more annoying calls, and if I did, I should ring 0800 150150 to let them know. Funny thing is, that number used to be a free NHS helpline but looks like they shut it down, probably cos of this sort of con. The Neath number 1471 they mentioned is fake too, doesn’t even exist. I didn’t stay on the line long enough to work out how exactly they plan to rip you off with this trick.

I got a ring from someone claiming to be with BT, seemed really friendly at first and said they were helping loads of folks in the UK block unwanted calls. They said if I needed help, I could call an 0800 number they gave me. Then, they asked for some personal info to confirm who I was, but when I said no, they started shouting, so I just hung up on them.

Funny enough, that number was once a free healthcare helpline, but they shut it down - probably 'cause of scams like this. Also, the Neath number 1471 they gave is bogus and doesn’t actually exist.

Don't share any info with these con artists! They try to sound all friendly, claiming to be from BT and say they're helping stop spam calls. They'll tell you to ring 0800150150 if you get annoying calls, which sounds legit enough. But the moment I refused to hand over my details, they just ended the call. They do seem to know bits like your name and where you live though. Definitely a scam, so stay sharp!

Got a call at about 3.30pm on the 9th of January 2017 - actually the second time they tried ringing within half an hour because I missed the first one. The caller claimed to be from BT, saying they were offering a free service to stop cold calls. They said they’d check my info, which they already seemed to have on screen. I let them read out my name, address and phone number, and even gave my birth year, 1926. Then, he started talking about how I pay my phone bill by Direct Debit and asked for my bank’s name. That was the moment I said enough is enough and refused to give it. The guy got quite flustered, realised I wasn’t falling for it, and then promptly hung up.

When I asked how exactly he'd do that, he just hung up. Thought I might have some fun wasting his “company” time, but no, he chickened out too quick. Annoyingly, he woke up my elderly, poorly mum, so I’m hoping he rings back. The TPS scheme is absolutely rubbish.

Used 1471 to check the number but when I ring back, it's like the number doesn't exist. Honestly, these people should be cracked down on but TPS can't do much, and ICO sounds like they couldn’t care less when you report stuff like this. Action Fraud just tosses you aside unless you’ve lost a big amount of cash, which is totally rubbish.

Pretty sure it’s the same lot behind all those dodgy scams, from double glazing deals to PPI claims, always switching up their company names but doing the same old nonsense.

When I picked up, there was this really loud noise in the background, like super noisy. I heard a woman say “hello” like three times but then some huge crash noise blasted through the phone that was honestly ear-piercing. Before I could say anything, the call just cut off.
