Phone number ☎️ 01702216131 👆 is reported as a persistent scam involving callers falsely claiming to be from BT or BT Openreach regarding issues with internet or broadband services.

The calls are marked by pushy, aggressive behaviour, attempts to gain access to devices or personal information, and refusal to verify their legitimacy. Many recipients report no genuine connection to BT, with the calls frequently ending abruptly when challenged.

Users are advised to treat any such calls sceptically, avoid sharing information, and verify independently through official BT channels.

4 yearsGot two calls within an hour from this number but when I answered nothing. Seems like it could be dodgy.4 yearsLooks like a scam to me - they said they were from BT but I don’t even have BT! Definitely blocking this number!BT5 yearsI picked up and said nothing. The phone rings a lot.5 yearsGot 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.BT5 yearsSo irritating, honestly.5 yearsI answered this number but nobody spoke, just silence on the other end.5 yearsSo irritating and kept pestering me!5 yearsGot a call at 7am, proper unsettling to be honest.5 yearsThey claimed they were with BT.BT5 yearsI 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!BTJohn5 yearsGot 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.HarryBT Openreach5 yearsHad a call from someone pretending to be from BT, said they needed my router info for some work. I told him I wasn’t close to it right then. He kept insisting I go check it and that he’d hang about on the line. When I said I couldn’t, he just hung up on me.BT5 yearsNo idea who’s calling from this number.5 yearsSome woman rang me claiming her name was Anna Singers, speaking with quite a thick foreign accent. She said she was calling on behalf of BT about an issue with my internet messages. When I asked for a number to return the call, she gave me 020 3290 6877 but mentioned that the call was actually coming from 01702 216131 since it was internet-based. The moment she noticed I was suspicious and suspected it to be a scam, she just hung up straightaway.Anna SingersBT5 yearsYesterday, I picked up a call from this number but as soon as I said hello, the call just dropped. Then they rang again today, but I decided not to pick up. I searched this number on here and since I don’t even use BT internet, I’m pretty sure it’s some kind of scam.5 yearsGot 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...HarryBT Openreach5 yearsAlthough I'm not a customer of BT, I received a call from these con artists claiming they had spotted some suspicious activity linked to my internet. It's utterly bonkers!BT5 yearsSomeone pretending to be from BT called me, but I knew straight away it wasn’t legit. Total scam, they were trying to get access to my device. Watch out!BT5 yearsI 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.BT5 yearsSomeone said they were calling from BT and gave me a number that looked dodgy, 02032906877, which I reckon is a fake BT callback number.BT5 yearsSome bloke named John from BT rang me up saying there’s been someone messing about on our internet line, but honestly, I don’t buy it one bit!JohnBT5 yearsI just ignored the call and they didn’t bother leaving a voicemail either. Decided to jump online and check out what others are saying about this number. Gotta say, this website is awesome!5 yearsGot 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.5 yearsRight 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.5 yearsGot 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.BT5 yearsThis 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.BT5 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were BT and wanted to check my internet, but I don’t even have BT as my provider. Definitely felt like a scam.BT5 yearsA woman rang claiming she was from BT, saying there was too much usage on our internet, like 20 people were connected or something. She was really hard to follow and never clearly said it was BT at first. She wanted me to check our router settings but I didn't bother. I'm not sure if it was really BT or some kind of scam. Also, she called from what looked like a landline number but it might have been a mobile. If it was actually BT, that whole call sounded really sketchy and unprofessional.BT5 yearsTotally a scam call. They pretended to be from BT and wanted all my internet info, then asked for money to sort out a problem. Definitely not legit.BT5 yearsSomebody rang me pretending to be from BT, and they gave me a sketchy callback number, 02032906877, which I’m pretty sure isn’t legit.BT5 yearsSome bloke said he was John from BT, said something about the internet. When I asked what the issue was, he just cut me off! Proper rude if you ask me. Definitely seems like a scam.John5 yearsGot a call today from someone pretending to be from BT, sounded like one of those common Indian scams. Didn’t fall for it though!BTSubmit Your Own Report (01702 216131)
