Got a call from someone claiming they were Virgin Media saying there was an issue with my router. I asked for the account holder’s name to check but as soon as I did, the bloke just hung up on me. Definitely felt like a dodgy call.

Somebody rang me saying they were from Sky, but they had a really thick Indian accent. When I told them I wasn’t interested, they just got angry and started yelling insults, calling me a liar.

So this bloke with the number 01697345123 rang me twice claiming he was from Sky, saying my internet was slow. I asked him what broadband package I supposedly had, how long I’d been with that provider and all that. He told me to wait an hour and he’d get back with the info. I just hung up on him. For starters, my internet speed is perfectly fine, and secondly, my broadband isn't even through Sky!

Got a call from someone speaking an Asian language, said they were from Virgin Media's tech support and mentioned issues with my router. Definitely a scam.

Got a call from 01697 345123 earlier, some bloke with a thick accent. I caught a few words about BT but couldn’t make much sense of it. Asked him to say it again, then he said something about my router having issues. Told him I wasn’t bothered and just hung up.

some guy with an indian accent called claiming he was from openreach, told me my broadband speed was having issues. he asked about the lights on my router, i said blue (which means all fine). he then said to turn on my pc so he could sort it out and boost the speed for me. i told him i was tied up and he said he'd call back, but there’s no way i’m picking up next time.

Got a call with no one speaking at the other end, then after a bit, an automated voice just saying ‘goodbye’. Really odd.
