Got two calls within an hour from this number but when I answered nothing. Seems like it could be dodgy.

Looks like a scam to me - they said they were from BT but I don’t even have BT! Definitely blocking this number!

Got a call ages ago from some bloke claiming he was with BT about my internet. I told him I don’t deal with calls like that and just put the phone down. They keep calling all the time, definitely one of those scams.

I recently fell victim to a dodgy phone call claiming to be from BT's customer service. The caller, who went by the name "John" and had an Indian accent, tried to alarm me about so-called hackers trying to access my internet. It was clearly a scam trying to get hold of my information!

Got a call from a bloke with an Indian accent who said his name was Harry and he was from BT Openreach, trying to fix some router issue. He wouldn’t take no for an answer and got pretty hostile when I asked too many questions. Seemed like he had a reply ready for every doubt I raised. Pretty sure it was a scam, just like those dodgy 0203 numbers doing the rounds, as he even knew a name linked to the house. Definitely wouldn’t let him anywhere near my PC.

I had a similar experience to what others have described about receiving calls from someone claiming to be from BT. They requested my router information, but I informed them I wasn't close to it at the time. The person insisted I should make my way to the router, saying they'd happily wait for me. When I explained that it wasn't possible for me, they abruptly hung up. Quite rude, if you ask me!

I had a rather peculiar encounter recently. A woman introduced herself as Anna Singers and spoke with a distinct accent that hinted at her foreign origins. She claimed to be calling on behalf of BT, stating there was an issue regarding messages related to my internet connection. Naturally, I inquired about the number I should ring back on, and she provided 020 3290 6877. Curiously, she said she was dialling from 01702 216131, suggesting it was some sort of internet call. The moment she sensed that I was sceptical about her intentions, she promptly ended the conversation. Quite suspicious, wouldn’t you agree?

I picked up a call from this number yesterday, but as soon as I did, the line went silent! They tried ringing me again today, but I couldn’t be bothered to respond. So, I decided to check the number out here. Since I don’t even use BT for my internet, it seems rather dodgy to me!

Got a call from some bloke named Harry, sounded Indian, claiming he was from BT Openreach about my internet. Honestly, do they really expect anyone to fall for that nonsense? It's like they think we're all daft or something...

I got a call from a woman with an Indian accent, saying she was from BT and that there'd been some "hacking detected" on my IP address. She asked me all sorts, like when I last connected online, what I was doing, and even what lights were blinking on my router. There was loads of background noise - people chatting in an Indian language - and she came across really unprofessional. Definitely felt like a scam. She tried to get me to enter a special "code" on a website, even though earlier she'd said I wouldn't need to log into anything. I told her to leave me alone and just ended the call.

Someone said they were calling from BT and gave me a number that looked dodgy, 02032906877, which I reckon is a fake BT callback number.

Got a call at 8:08 this morning, but it was dead silence when I answered. Sounds like one of those dodgy scam calls to me.

Right after I ended the call, she dialled me once more and with a whiney voice, asked why I’d cut her off. I said I wasn’t up for any dodgy schemes and told her to leave me alone. Then I hung up yet again.

Got a call from a woman with an Asian accent claiming there was a problem with my internet from BT. I've received similar calls in the past and fell for it once. This time I didn’t fall for it, told her it sounded like a scam and hung up straight away. Definitely not BT ringing.

This is the third time she’s called me today! When she asked, “Why do you always hang up on me?” I told her straight up that she’s a total #### scammer and I’m not interested in any of her nonsense. If some hacker is really messing with me, they should just cut off my internet access! Since she’s clearly not from BT, there’s no way she could do that. She kept going on and on, so I yelled back something about #### and a trip, loud enough so she couldn’t miss it.

I received a phone call from a woman who claimed to be contacting me regarding excessive usage on our broadband account. Apparently, she mentioned that as many as 20 individuals were connected to it at once! I found her really hard to follow, and she didn’t initially identify herself as representing BT. She tried to get me to tinker with our router, but I chose not to engage. Could this have genuinely been BT? Or perhaps it was just a dodgy scam? I can’t help but wonder if it was a mobile number masquerading as a landline. If it was indeed BT, I must say their approach seemed rather unprofessional.

It's evidently a fraudulent call masquerading as a legitimate inquiry. They claimed to be from BT, fishing for all sorts of details regarding my internet connection, only to try and coax me into making a payment for 'repairs'. Total scam, without a doubt!
