10 yearsGot called today by the same kind of number as last week, one starting with 001. The bloke claimed to be from BT Openreach. He was an Indian guy and was really aggressive and cheeky when I told him to stop and said I’d report him to (fH), the exec complaints line. If anyone’s thinking of signing up, they should definitely know about this upfront.BT Openreach10 yearsthis number has been ringing me for the last three days straight. every call it’s some "annie" saying she’s from bt openreach and that there’s a virus on my pc. i keep telling her she’s a scammer and not really with bt, but they just keep calling back. the number they use seems to be missing a couple of digits, yet when i look it up on 1471, it shows exactly the same number every time. quite suspicious if you ask me!AnnieBT10 yearsThey keep hassling the same phone number using really convincing but pushy tactics. Make sure to warn older folks and those who might be easily tricked about scams like this!10 yearsif u get a ring from these two numbers just dont answer, they’re scammers. they say there’s a problem with your pc and try to talk u into fixing it but it’s fake. dont follow any instructions they give. numbers are 001550822405 and 018245868. stay safe!10 yearsThis number has rung me a bunch of times this week. Usually, I just end the call before it goes to the call centre. But today I let it ring through and spoke to a woman with quite a strong accent. She claimed she was from BT Openreach and said there was a problem with the computer connected to my phone line. I told her we don't have any computer hooked up to that line, and she actually just laughed and got all defensive before abruptly hanging up on me!BT Openreach10 yearsThis number called me 4 different times over the span of 4 days, quite annoying honestly!10 yearsi had a similar thing happen, i probed a bit and they claimed they were from the tech team, giving an address as 256 Banbury Road, Oxford. when i asked for their postcode and phone number, they got a bit rattled and handed me over to another person. i quickly gave the phone to my missus while i grabbed a pen, and she said i was a cop from the fraud unit. they just cut the call after that.Banbury RoadOxford10 yearsclaimed they were from bt open reach but it’s a load of rubbish. really, it’s just some automated call centre that keeps ringing non-stop. if you happen to get through to a real person, just give them a bit of a mouthful and they hang up quick sharp. don’t ever answer their questions or hand over any private info, even if they say they’re from bt open reach by some fluke. these lot install malware on your pc and swipe your bank details, then drain your account. absolute scumbags.BT Openreach10 yearsGot three calls in just one day from the same number. I tried calling back 018245868, but the message said the number can’t be reached. The last time, some woman with a Chinese accent picked up, then quickly ended the call. Not happy about this at all.10 yearsGot a call from a lady with a pretty heavy accent saying she was from BT tech support. She said my computer was infected with a virus. When I asked a few questions, she got rude and ended the call straight away.BTSubmit Your Own Report (018245868)
