Got a call from a guy with an Asian accent who started chatting about my computer’s security. I told him I don’t own a computer, and then he asked if I had a laptop instead. I said no to that too. After that, he said sorry and ended the call. I’ve put that number on my block list now.

Got a call from an unknown number but no voicemail was left. Definitely felt like some sort of dodgy call centre or a scam. I never share my number so it must be someone calling the wrong one.

This number has rung me quite a few times. After looking through some of the comments, it seems it might be a scam. Fortunately, I’ve got call guard to block these sorts of calls. Tried ringing back but it just says I’ve entered a wrong number. Bit dodgy if you ask me.

Loads of calls from this number, always some Asian voice saying they’re with Talktalk, but I just tell them to buzz off. It’s really weird, especially since the calls come from a landline in Scotland. If the police can trace that, why haven’t they done anything about it yet? They must definitely be aware of who these people are.

I had a rather dodgy encounter with a chap claiming to be from TalkTalk. This Asian bloke insisted I hop onto my computer, but of course it was playing up and wouldn’t cooperate. He promised he’d call again at nine o'clock tomorrow. Something about the whole situation felt off, so I took the liberty of doing a quick search online. Turns out, it’s just another scam! Take care, everyone!

Got a call from some guy with an Indian accent claiming to be from Talk Talk about sending out a new router. He started rambling about viruses and security problems on my gadgets, wanted me to fiddle with the router right then and boot up my laptop. I knew straight away it smelled fishy, so told him I had to dash out. The bloke got quite cheeky, saying if I didn't care about my stuff, just leave and never bother coming back! Honestly, if this number pops up on your phone, just ignore it or hang up straight away!

Got a call from a woman with an Asian accent, said she was from TalkTalk. If you've ever dealt with TalkTalk, you'll know they don't ring you like that. Honestly, the moment I heard "TalkTalk," I just hung up straight away. Total scam, I reckon.

Received a call from someone claiming to be from TalkTalk's tech department. After mentioning I had already received nine calls in the space of two days, I remained courteous and politely requested that he disconnect. He chose to ignore my request, so I eventually hung up myself. Is there any way to put an end to these incessant calls?

Got a call from an Asian bloke who said hello, and I answered back. Suddenly, the line got all crackly, like he’d accidentally dropped the phone or something. Then he popped back on and said hello once more, and I said hello again. This kept happening a few more times, and then the phone started making banging noises before cutting out completely. So much for that "important" call I missed. Honestly, can’t wait for the next one… Not! Don’t these fraudsters get it? They’ve been found out. It’s such a pain having to deal with them!

I received a call from someone claiming to be from Talk Talk, insisting that they were dispatching a replacement router my way. They even mentioned my direct debit details, which raised a red flag for me. I decided to cut the conversation short and mentioned that I’d verify this with customer support before proceeding. Glad I did!

Received a call from this number at precisely 10:35. The individual on the line had a pronounced Asian accent and claimed to represent BT Internet Services. He informed me that my broadband was slated for disconnection for the next month. When I probed further about their location, he mentioned a rather dubious address: 71 Newgate Street, purporting to be the headquarters of British Telecom. He even provided a postcode, but my scepticism was piqued. Upon questioning his name, he rudely retorted, "My name? It's f*** off, you idiot," before abruptly ending the call. What a nuisance! This person was not only dishonest but also quite rude. We need to put a stop to these bothersome calls and blacklist their number!

Got a call from someone claiming to be Talk Talk, well, it was actually a persistent lady with an Indian accent. She just refused to fess up that she wasn’t really from Talk Talk, even when I straight up told her she wasn’t. It was like a weird game where she knew I wasn’t convinced and I knew she was bluffing, and neither of us wanted to admit it. When I asked for my email address to prove she was legit, she just goes "how would I know that?" Yeah, exactly my thoughts. Total scam if you ask me.

I got three calls from this number today. The first one I didn’t pick up but could hear loads of people talking in a busy call centre. The second call was just dead silence. When they rang a third time, I could hear the same call centre noises again. I’m done answering these now.

Got a call from someone claiming to be with the National Crime Agency and they even knew my full name and address. They said my computer ID had been used for some illegal stuff. I asked for something in writing to prove it, but they kept saying I'd miss my chance if I didn't act right away. I insisted on having it in writing first and then they just ended the call. Definitely a scam.

Got a call from some bloke with an Asian accent saying he was from TalkTalk, talking about 'technical issues with my service'. The line was full of loads of background noise. He was really pushy, trying to keep me on the phone even after I told him I’d report them and was well fed up with these dodgy calls. He wanted me to hear proof that he supposedly had details about my account but I just told him again I’d be reporting him to the cops and hung up. They had rang me a couple times yesterday too, and even tried ringing one of my family members. Proper scammers!

What a nuisance! I had a rather tenacious female caller claiming to represent Talk Talk-clearly a scam. No matter what I said, she refused to accept that she wasn’t actually from the company. It felt like a strange game of acknowledgment: I knew she was trying to fool me, and I reckon she realised I was onto her as well. The whole exchange was somewhat absurd! When I challenged her for my email address, her response was baffling: “How would I know that?” Well, precisely! It was as if she was playing a peculiar game of cat and mouse.

I had an unsettling encounter with someone claiming to be from the National Crime Agency. When I asked for everything to be documented in writing, the caller became rather aggressive, insisting that time was of the essence and that there were individuals misusing my CLisd, which could put me in jeopardy. To top it off, he revealed my address! As soon as I reiterated my demand for a written explanation, he abruptly cut off the call. Definitely a scam!

What a right pain in the neck these callers are! I've received three separate calls from this number; it was only when I mentioned that my laptop was on the blink and that I was sans computer that they finally hung up. The voice on the other end had an Asian accent, and it felt like nothing less than a dodgy scam. Well, they won’t be conning me!

Got a call earlier from a lady claiming to be from TalkTalk, said there was a problem with my wifi device. She asked if all the lights were blinking, but I got suspicious when she never used my name or asked any verification questions. She then asked if I had a laptop and asked me to switch it on. I ended the call pretty quickly once I figured it was a dodgy scam. Definitely don’t pick up if this number rings you!

Had this woman with a heavy foreign accent say she was from TalkTalk and said I had an issue with my computer, even used my name. I told her straight I knew she was a scammer. She tried to argue but I just hung up and blocked the number. This is the fourth time they’ve called me in as many days. The numbers start with codes from places like Hartlepool, Cumnock, and Mallaig up in Scotland. Don’t fall for it, they’re just trying to rip you off.

Got a ring from this number earlier, but I cut them off pretty quick. Mentioned they sounded like they were following a script and guessed they might be calling from somewhere in India. I also said I’d be passing their details on to the Wiltshire police and Action Fraud, and warned them they’d be facing legal trouble soon enough. Then they just hung up out of the blue. Bit odd, that.

Got a call from someone claiming to be the “tech team” at TalkTalk, but the thick Asian accent made it really hard to get what they were saying. They kept insisting there was a problem with my account. Honestly, the main issue here is all the dodgy scam calls I keep getting. I’ve put a block on the number now, but I’m sure they’ll keep ringing me up.

I’d just like to warn everyone about this dodgy caller who got in touch with me. Claiming to be from BT's tech support, he insisted that there was a virus lurking on my computer.
