Definitely a scam, don’t trust it!

Had the exact same thing happen. Got a call today and yesterday from someone saying they were with btopenreach. The first time I told them I don’t have an account with BT and they just hung up straight away. Today my husband asked them which address they were calling about, like if they actually knew there was an issue. They just cut the call again. Totally sounds like a scam to me. Really feel bad for the company whose number’s been used to pull this off, that must be so frustrating for them.

It’s utterly frustrating getting two calls from the same number only for them to abruptly disconnect. It makes one wonder why we’re still subjected to such pesky scams.

got loads of quiet calls buzzing from this number all day today, weirdly silent every time.

I've had the same issue as many here with this number constantly calling me, so I've gone ahead and blocked it now. Someone mentioned using TeamViewer in a previous comment - it's a tool we use at work to remotely access computers safely, but here it looks like they're using that as a cover to get third-party access to your device. Seems like a proper scam trying to hack into your PC remotely.

got two calls from some dodgy lot - the line was all crackly and the bloke had a strong indian accent. he said he was calling from bt openreach about "your phone line" which made no sense 'cause i’m with a cable provider, no bt here at all. pretty sure it was a scam. big respect to gvryn evans transport for sorting out these sorts of fake calls, must be a nightmare for them.

I reckon this might be some dodgy business... they’re asking you to fiddle with your WiFi by asking you to hook up your laptop. They hang up as soon as you press them for more information. Quite fishy if you ask me!

Just a heads up, we're a proper company based in North Wales, and yesterday someone scammed our landline. They’ve been using our number to ring people, pretending to be from BT Openreach. The people calling have foreign accents and are pretty rude and aggressive. We've already reported this to BT and Action Fraud. Sorry for any hassle caused, but unfortunately, this is out of our hands.

The call got through for a moment but then disconnected. I could just make out some background noise like a busy call centre, people chatting away in Indian accents before it went dead.

I rang this number and got through to a lovely woman who said she works for Gwyn Evans Transport. Apparently their phone number got used fraudulently yesterday, and now some folks pretending to be from BT Openreach have been calling people and acting quite pushy. Just a heads up to watch out!

We've had a number ringing our office repeatedly - about six times today - but every time they just hung up. Tried calling back but it’s always busy. Very strange!

I looked up the number online, and it showed up as Gwyn Evans Commercial Transport Repair. But the person who answered sounded like he was from India and claimed to be calling from BT Openreach about my broadband. The call came through on my work phone direct line. When I asked who they wanted to talk to because I wasn’t the right person, they just hung up. Then yesterday, they rang again but the call didn’t even go through.
