Even though I’m signed up with the TPS, I keep getting calls non-stop. It’s really annoying!

Got a call saying my computer would be cut off due to some tech issue. I told them I don’t even own a computer and that they were talking rubbish! Really sick of these scam calls.

Got a call from someone with an Indian accent claiming to be from my internet provider telling me my service would be cut off. Honestly, I just ended the call right away because it was so irritating!

Got a call from an Indian woman but it was so noisy in the background I couldn’t really catch what she was saying. She mentioned her name and something about my internet. Didn’t wanna waste time so just ended the call. Even though I’m on the TPS list, these scam calls still manage to slip past. Def gonna block that number now...

Got a call from a UK number saying my BT broadband was going to be cut off for ten days. But the voice had a really strong Indian accent, which gave it away. Honestly, I’m so fed up with scams popping up everywhere. Didn’t think a call from a UK number would be dodgy, but turns out it was just another con.

I got a call from someone claiming to be from BT, with a strong Indian accent and loads of lag on the line. They tried to tell me my computer and internet were full of viruses. I told them there’s no way that’s true since I don’t even have internet at home! Then they insisted my computer was infected. I told them I don’t even own a computer! They just ended the call pretty quick after that.

What is it with these callers? I’ve got an answerphone and they never bother leaving a message, yet they keep ringing! I really won’t be ringing them back, no way. I’m on the Telephone Preference Service list, so I’m not sure how they’re still getting through - it’s pretty annoying to say the least!

Got a call earlier today saying there was an issue with my computer’s signal. I told them my computer wasn’t even turned on, then I just ended the call.
