Reports on phone number 01702899088
2 monthsIt was a silent call and I picked up because the number had the same area code as my elderly dad's, so I thought it might be important.3 monthsI was really fed up with BT, but this helped me cut costs on both my broadband and phone line. Definitely saved me some cash!BT4 monthsGot a call from a supposed local number, turned out to be BT/OneCom. They said they were calling Elena to offer better business rates after checking our account. The bloke was pretty pushy about talking on the phone, which made me suspicious. We actually haven't had BT for ages, about a year now. Told them to ring back the person who deals with contracts here instead. The number they gave us was 01702899088.BTOneComElena4 monthsGot calls from a bloke named "Sam Moore" saying my BT bill was unpaid. He rang from 01702 899088 and also tried me on 01223620770 and 01245947284. Definitely looks like one of those dodgy BT scams about overdue accounts.Sam MooreBT5 monthsGot a call from someone named Gareth, said he was ringing from 0170 289 9088 about a supposed BT issue. He mentioned our VOiP number had some overdue account review or something. Thing is, we don’t even have a VOiP line, so it was obvious right away that it was a scam.Gareth5 monthsHad a call from a number claiming to be 'onecom', telling me my BT bill was overdue and needed sorting straight away. Total con artists, just trying to scam people!BT5 monthsGot a call out the blue from someone claiming to be OneCom. Left a voicemail saying something about our BT bill being 'past due' - which is odd since we don’t even have BT. When I rang back, the person said they wanted to do a 'review' of our account to find a better deal. I wasn’t up for it, so I just told them thanks but no thanks.OneComBT7 monthsI'm really chuffed because I managed to cut down my expenses on broadband and business calls, which was brilliant!8 monthsGot a voicemail from someone named Gareth Smith saying he was calling about a BT bill that supposedly was overdue. He said he could sort out discounts and deals. Problem is, we’ve never been BT customers. Definitely sounds like a scam to me.Gareth SmithBT8 monthsBeware of this so-called BT, it's a total scam! They're tricking folks into deals they never wanted and locking them into contracts. Stay well clear, they're just out to cheat you.BT10 monthsI got a call from someone named Tiffany claiming to be from "OCL" saying our BT "services" needed checking. Thing is, we don’t even have BT. When I asked what exactly she meant, she was pretty vague. She then mentioned it was about our broadband, even though we had fibre installed just two years ago through HSO. She didn’t give me any solid info. I asked for who I should speak to and she handed me a number to call back, 01489 442000, which has a bad rep as far as I could tell. Told me it was her ‘direct line’ but honestly, all my instincts were telling me it’s a scam.TiffanyOCLBTHSO11 monthsI got a call from a number linked to Southend and they left a message with a full name, XXX, plus a company called Onecom. The message said they were ringing about my BT account, mentioning a recent price hike and that a review was due. They also said XXX was my account manager. Thing is, I don’t actually have a BT account - the landline they rang is through a different provider. To be fair, they never directly said they were from BT, so it was a bit of a vague cold call, probably trying to grab BT business clients. They did leave a real name and no blocked number, at least.SouthendXXXOnecomBT1 yearGot a call from a woman named Tiffany saying she was ringing from "Onecom" about BT deals. Felt like one of those dodgy cold calls trying to scam or sell me something dodgy, if you ask me.TiffanyOnecomBT2 yearsJust started doing this little trick to save some cash on my BT bill. Worth a shot if you wanna keep a bit more in your pocket!2 yearsGot a call from Onecom, but they hid their number to look like a local. Claimed they were doing a BT review, even though we renewed our BT contract just a few months back. Our number’s on the TPS list, so I’ll be reporting them. Seriously, don’t ring them back. I suspect the positive reviews on here might be fake, probably trying to lure people into calling. Don’t fall for it.OnecomBTTPS2 yearsOne Tel is attempting to assist with the transition to digital services, suggesting a connection to BT. There seems to be a hint that there might be a risk of losing your number during the process. Personally, I have no intention of giving them a call again. As it stands, our number is already on digital.2 yearsGot a call from Onecom, seemed like one of their sales pitches.Onecom3 yearsThey made it sound like they were with BT, chatting about getting full fibre installed at our place. Then they kept pushing a "better deal" that would supposedly save us about 30% compared to BT. Really persistent bunch and honestly felt like a total scam to me.BT3 yearsI got a call out blue from someone talking about my "BT phone line" and how they could help us save money as a charity. Bit odd since we haven’t used BT for more than a year now.BT4 yearsReally helped me save some cash when every penny counts these days! Cheers :)4 yearsGot a call from OneCom, sounded like a hard sell right from the start. Honestly, would steer clear if I were you.Onecom5 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be BT, saying they wanted to assist with my BT account, even though I don’t actually have one. Looks like a classic trick to pitch other communication services if you ring them back.BT5 yearsReally helped me dodge spending loads, big thanks!6 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be from BT, saying they needed to go over our account. It seemed really dodgy to me!BT6 yearsonecom helped me score much lower wholesale prices on my phone and internet bills. Really saved me some money.6 yearsgot a call from a telemarketer trying to pitch me a phone line deal. they kept saying how much better their offer was compared to my bt line, but i aint even with bt!BT6 yearsThis company really helps folks out by cutting down the extra charges some networks slap on, so people end up saving a bit more cash. It's great to see a service actually looking out for the customers instead of just making money off them.7 yearsGot a call from some muppet pretending to be Openreach. Seriously, find an honest gig!7 yearsI keep getting calls from these lot asking for the “bt line holder.” They’re clearly telemarketers, probably got a list from Openreach or something (we don't actually use BT for our service). Today, I was a bit harsh with them - maybe that’ll make them think twice, but probably not! Honestly, stuff like this shouldn’t be allowed!BT8 yearsGot a call out of the blue from some BT lines person. Didn’t ask for it and felt like just another cold caller trying their luck. Not really interested but they kept going on. Bit annoying, really.8 yearsReceived four calls from this number in a single day, but they didn’t bother to leave a message. Does anyone happen to know whose number this might be?Submit Your Own Report (01702 899088)
