01688963254 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01688963254 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance involving scam callers frequently impersonating BT or similar services to obtain personal details or money. Callers often use automated or silent calls to confirm if the line is active before following up with scripted questions, sometimes having partial personal information. Many recipients note aggressive or evasive behaviour when challenged, with attempts to extract sensitive data or payment details for bogus call-blocking services. Numbers typically change daily, making blocking difficult. Users recommend not answering unknown calls, using caller ID, and employing call-blocking devices. The prevalence of these calls causes considerable frustration, with advice centred on vigilance and refusal to share any details, highlighting the importance of protecting oneself from such scams.

Got the same type of call once more, they keep changing the numbers daily. I’ve gone ahead and blocked that number, planning to block every single one they use. My advice? Use caller ID and don’t pick up if you don’t recognise the number. They usually send automated calls to see if you answer. If you do and no one talks, chances are you’ll get a real call back later from the same or a different number trying to scam you. It’s best to steer clear completely.

They had my full name and where I live! Then they started asking if I was in my 30s, 40s, or 50s. When I wanted to know how they found my info, they just went quiet.

Some bloke called “Jack” rang me saying he was from a call blocking company. He gave my daughter's name but with our old last name, which she’s never gone by. Thing is, I don’t even use any call blocking service. He said it’s a free thing and all he needed was to check my age bracket. When I asked what age range he had for that name, he got all dodgy and refused to say, insisting I verify my voice. Creepy part is, he actually knew my address and postcode, just got the name wrong. No idea what scam he was trying, but when I put up a fight, he just ended the call.

Got a call supposedly from BT who asked if they were talking to me. I said no and just ended the call. They actually had my real name though.

Whenever these muppets ring up askin’ me some questions, I just tell them, “Fine, but you’re gonna have to pay me upfront. It’s £120 an hour plus VAT.” Funny enough, they usually don’t stick around after that. If I’m not in the mood for fuss, I just tell ’em to jog on.

Got a call from someone claiming to be Jeremy from Stop and Block saying my service was running out, even though it had been active for ages. I told them I never signed up for anything like that. They kept insisting it was a long-term service but about to expire. I said it clearly wasn't doing anything, so I wasn’t interested. The number didn’t come up under any company, so I reckon it's a scam.

Got a call from some so-called BT blocking centre asking for my name and address. Problem is, I’m not even a BT customer, so I knew straight away it was just another rubbish scam. Honestly, the government should really step up and sort these annoying calls out.

Got a call from 01688963254, some woman claiming to be from BT. She said she wanted to activate a call blocking service and asked for my security code to set up a direct debit. I told her flat out I never share security info on the phone and questioned why I’d pay for something that’s free anyway. After that, she just hung up on me. Quite dodgy if you ask me.

The bloke asked if he was speaking to me, and I said yes. Then he goes, "What's your name?" I told him, and he starts chatting about my BT landline being blocked. I was like, what does that have to do with BT? Then just hung up. Bit of a shame, I usually tell these lot to bugger off!

In just two days, I’ve had another call supposedly from BT offering to stop nuisance calls. When I told the caller that if I actually had those problems, then he wouldn’t be able to phone me at all, he snapped back with “I’m not a bloody scammer” 😡. What a cheek!

First it was completely silent, then I heard what seemed like a busy call centre in the background before some bloke muttered 'hello' and the line just went dead.

So this guy rang claiming to be from BT and said my first name right but messed up my last name. When I corrected him, he asked for my surname again but I refused to give it. He was saying he’d put a free call blocker on my landline, but I don’t even have a BT line. Then he got all annoyed and aggressive, saying I didn’t have to pay a thing, no money at all. I told him to remember who he was calling, and then suddenly he changed it to a pound. I just told him to leave me alone and not to call again, called him a cold caller and hung up.

Got a call from 01688963254 today. When I picked up, there was nothing but silence, so I just blocked the number, which is what I usually do. I use a gadget called a “CPR CALL BLOCKER” - the newer models catch loads of dodgy calls by themselves, but I often prefer to handle stuff myself.

Another scam call popped up again. Seriously, when are these going to end!!!!

I kept getting calls from some Asian guy who got really rude and started swearing at me when I asked him to stop. He kept ringing me at the same time every day, even though I blocked his number, he'd just use a different one. The whole thing with Universal Credit benefits is just a massive pain.

I reckon this number’s been cloned or summat. The code is definitely for the Isle of Mull, but I doubt anyone’s actually there. Probably just a blocked caller!

Got a call from an Asian lady who actually said my name, which surprised me since my number’s ex-directory and I’m on the TPS list. She claimed to be calling from the benefits office and wanted to ask me some questions. After I said no about four times, she just ended the call.

She called and asked straight away for me by name, then tried to get details about who lives at my address. I told her I’m registered with the TPS, and she just ended the call.

Had another call from some Asian bloke claiming to be from 'your benefits' asking for my info. I'm so fed up with these constant ring-ins.

Every time I answer the phone and say 'hello', I can hear what sounds like a call centre happening in the background, but then the person just ends the call straight away. Bit weird, really.

I've been getting calls from an asian person almost every day around the same time, asking about my benefits. They never miss a chance to try and get my private details. Honestly, it's so annoying now!

The caller was trying to reach the previous owner of our number, even though we’ve had it for over three years now. When I told them the person they wanted lives somewhere else, the bloke just ended the call straight away. I really wanted to give them a piece of my mind about their dodgy cold calls, but oh well. Hopefully they’ll stick around next time so I can give them a proper earful. What a waste of time.

total muppets, honestly!

I got a call from someone wanting info about my benefits. When I told her I had no clue who she was, she just hung up straight away. Watch out and don’t hand over any details, these are definitely scammers.

Called and it just went to voicemail, no message was left. Sounds like it might be some sort of scam.

Honestly, I never pick up unknown calls so I can't say for sure. Based on all the dodgy numbers I've had to block lately, this one might just be another one from their bunch.

For the past few days, I keep getting calls from this number at exactly the same time, but whenever I pick up, they just hang up straight away. It's really annoying.

Got another ring from a silent number, no one answered again. So annoying!
