9 yearsGot a call earlier at about 9 in the morning, there was silence at first and then I could hear loads of people talking like a call centre. A lady with an Asian accent said her name was Annie and asked how I was doing before telling me there was an issue with my BT service. I said I was doing great but told her we don’t even have BT and hung up straight away. These calls are really annoying and upsetting, and I can’t figure out how they still use the same number despite all the complaints.Annie9 yearsI got a call from this number earlier today and it wasn’t the first time either. I let them talk for a bit just so I could tell them exactly what I thought of their nasty little scam! I mean, who in their right mind would let someone type commands on their computer? Definitely reported this number to the police as well.9 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be a BT tech saying my broadband was hacked by some foreign IP address. I just ended the call straight away. Then they rang me back from this number, though they already called me earlier from 02307865647. Honestly, these calls are so repetitive now - I’ve blocked like 50 different numbers from these scammers!BT9 years01685812513, what a nightmare! this jerk managed to get into my computer and caused me so much hassle trying to fix it. i can't believe i fell for it, felt so daft. seriously hope they get what's coming to them.9 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be with BT, saying my internet was at risk and I needed to follow their steps or it would get cut off. I ended up hanging up, but they kept bothering me for nearly an hour. They rang again today but I just hung up straight away. This is definitely a scam.BT9 yearsSome geezer with a strong accent pretending to be from BT rang me saying there were issues with my internet. I told him I’d call back when I was free, but he just gave me a made-up number. Next time he phones, I’m blowing my referee whistle down the line. If he’s lucky, he’s wearing a headset ‘cause it’d take a bit longer to yank it off - hope it’s a proper painful surprise!BT9 yearsWhat a ridiculous call, totally intrusive. Honestly, they need to be banned completely.9 yearsAround 12:25pm today, 28th October 2017, I received a call from this number. When I answered, the caller stayed silent. I’m convinced this is some kind of illegal scam, and it puzzles me why the Police aren't cracking down on these annoying and risky calls. My advice to everyone is to avoid picking up these calls, and definitely don’t call the number back. Let’s all urge Parliament along with our telecom and law enforcement agencies to finally put a stop to these fraud attempts targeting everyday people like us.
