01776889315 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01776889315 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance scam targeting BT customers, involving calls that claim there is an urgent issue with the recipient’s internet service. Callers often use aggressive tactics, pressuring recipients to take immediate action or provide remote access to their devices. Frequently, no one speaks when answered, or a foreign accent with unclear communication is noted. These calls commonly originate from call centres and may come from spoofed numbers, sometimes showing as from Stranraer. Victims are advised not to engage, avoid following instructions, and report the calls. Blocking the number and registering with telephone preference services is recommended. BT and authorities are urged to take stronger action to curb these fraudulent practices.

Got a call from someone saying they’re from the BT Tech Dept. They said my internet’s about to be cut off today. They asked me to press 1 if I wanted help or 2 if I was cancelling my internet. Just hung up straight away.

My mum, who’s 92, got a call at 10 this morning. She answered but there was just silence on the other end. Honestly, I really appreciate this brilliant site and everyone who helps out here - thanks a lot!

If you think you’ve had a dodgy call from BT, make sure you report it at [#][#]bt[###]/consumer/edw/scams/ to help stop these scams.

Not really sure this call came from StranRaer, and honestly, do we even need to know the exact spot someone called from? Seems a bit pointless to me.

This number called me twice within a few hours just now. Every time I answered, it was dead silence on the other end. After seeing what others have said about it, I’m going to block it straight away.

We're opted into the Telephone Preference Service, so we chose not to pick up this time - guessing it was just another nuisance call. They've attempted to reach us on two occasions now, yet they haven’t bothered to leave any sort of voicemail. Quite the annoyance, really!

Got a call from BT pretending to sort out my internet. They were full of it, as usual. I wasn’t at my computer so asked to put teamviewer on my phone. They just hung up on me but rang back shortly after. I’ve blocked their number now.

Got a call from 01776889315 three different times yesterday. When I finally picked up, nobody spoke, but I could hear some people talking quietly in the background. Pretty irritating, to be honest.

Got two calls today from this number already, didn’t answer either time and no voicemail left. I’m not keen on getting calls like this, so I just ignore them. I doubt these are actually coming from Stranraer - call centres seem to pick any area code in the UK for a bit and then switch to another. Honestly, with all the tech the authorities have, you'd think they could find a way to block this nonsense for good.

I’m a consultant and my time is worth a lot. I usually say, “My rate is £100 for the first hour. Could you kindly provide your company credit card info and the three digit security code?” Most of the time they’re gobsmacked and end up hanging up pretty sharpish! It works every time!

01776 889315 Called me twice now, I think. I answered the 2nd time and after a weird pause, this woman with an Indian accent said she was calling from BT. I told her she must be mistaken since I don’t have any BT services. She kept insisting BT are everywhere in the UK, but honestly I wasn’t up for it - I’m fed up with all these scam calls. Ended up just hanging up. Watch out for this number.

Got a call from a woman claiming to be from BT about some internet troubles. Problem is, I’m not with BT at all and my internet’s fine. I told her straight up that it sounded like a scam and ended the call. Don’t waste your time chatting to these sort of callers.

This number rang me a couple of times today, even after I told them I wasn’t interested. So, I’m switching the tag on this phone number from “unknown” to “harassing” on the form below. Honestly, best thing is to either ignore these calls or just hang up straight away if you pick up. Wish you all luck with this!

So at 10:27 this morning on 08/08/19, I got a call from an Asian guy claiming to be from BT. I told him that our internet is managed by an outside IT company, so they handle everything. After I said that, he just ended the call.

Definately sounds like it's coming from a call centre. The moment I pick up, the caller just ends the call. I swear 99% of these dodgy calls happen at the same time, nearly every day. When will they just get blocked for good?

Total scam!!! They kept ringing me non stop, like 4 times back to back. I even told them I was with BT Fraud right away and they had the cheek to ask which team I was from! On the second call, I blasted a personal attack alarm sound just to scare them off, but they went and phoned me again! Seriously, this sort of thing needs to be shut down for good!!!

These scammers from India are a right pain, best to block and report them straight away. If they realise you’re still engaging, they might bother you even more, like sending letters asking for money and stuff. Definitely get in touch with Ofcom and the police to report them.

Absolute scam, total rubbish! Got hammered with four calls back to back. I even told them I was with BT Fraud team, and they wanted to know which department I was in. On the second ring, I let loose a loud personal alarm at them, but they still kept ringing. This nonsense seriously needs to end!

I got a call from this number but they never left any voicemail. I don't know anyone from Stranraer, which is odd because I had a call from pretty much the same area a week before, with the number 01776 889013. Same deal, no message left. Feels like a bit of a scam to me.
