Reports on phone number 01824954242
6 yearsSeems like this phone number is making the rounds once more. Honestly, just take everyone's advice and ignore calls from strangers. That's what I always do and never regret it.9 yearsI had a missed call from 0182 4954242, I chose not to pick up straight away as I get loads of annoying calls all day long. To be honest, I rarely answer my landline now, which is worrying because I might miss important calls like the GP’s. It’s turned into such a nuisance. Honestly, I hope by reporting numbers here these telemarketers will eventually give up. What do they actually hope to gain? Some of them even try to persuade me to invest with them! I’m quite elderly and it’s ridiculous to think they’d bag any investments through these calls.9 yearsI've been inundated with calls claiming to be from the BT tech team. It's about time BT took action on this matter!BT9 yearsI received a rather peculiar phone call from someone with a thick accent who introduced herself as Rosie Brown, purporting to be from BT. She said she was looking into excessive broadband usage during the wee hours, specifically between midnight and 2 AM. This led to a barrage of questions regarding my internet habits, before she suddenly requested that I hop on my computer. I wasn't convinced by her claims of being with BT, despite her insistence. I suggested that she send me a written correspondence to confirm her identity and proposed scheduling a proper discussion. It was at that moment she abruptly ended the call. Quite the dodgy encounter!Rosie BrownBT9 yearsHad a call from an Asian bloke saying he was with BT and there was an issue with my internet. I told him I wasn't convinced and he ended the call pretty quick.BT9 yearsGot a call from a guy with an Asian accent claiming he was from BT. Said someone had hacked into my internet. Well, duh!!! :-) He didn't sound too happy when I told him I’d report him.BT9 yearsGot a call from a bloke with an Asian accent claiming there was an issue with our BT internet. Thing is, we don’t even have BT! Definitely seemed like a dodgy scam, so I just ended the call.BT9 yearsI received a call earlier today from the number 01824954242. A woman named Olivia claimed to be from BT and inquired about how my internet connection was performing. I decided to hang up on her.OliviaBT9 yearsI had no clue who was calling so I just let it ring off. After looking it up here, I’m really relieved I didn’t pick up! Honestly, this site is a lifesaver.9 yearsThis number rings me every day around the same hour, and it’s really starting to bug me. I always let it ring out and keep my answerphone on, but so far they haven’t bothered leaving a message. Occasionally, they’ll give it another go later on, but I just completely block it out and don’t pick up.9 yearsThe number was unfamiliar so I answered but stayed quiet, no one spoke on the line. After about 15 seconds, the call just dropped. From what others have said here, it sounds like a scam. If you fancy a bit of fun, you could pretend to go along with whatever they ask but do nothing at all. And if they want a password, try replying with something like “F U C K 0 0 F”. Just think how annoying it’d be for them if loads of people wasted their time or messed about. It might just slow them down and stop them trying their tricks on other folks.9 yearsGot a call from a guy named Sam, sounded Asian, telling me someone had accessed my computer from somewhere far away in the UK. He kept pestering me about whether I had a laptop or a desktop. I asked for his phone number and he gave me one starting with 0203. He kept urging me to get on my computer so he could fix things, but when I tried to ask more stuff, he just hung up. Definitely a scam.SamUK9 yearsCalled but didn’t bother to leave a voicemail.9 yearsGot a phone call from a guy who said he was with BT, sounded Asian. He claimed someone was messing with our IP address or something. Felt a bit dodgy to me.BT9 yearsI got a call from this number but no one spoke before they just hung up. Right after, they tried calling me again but on my other phone line, again silence. I’ve since gone ahead and blocked them through the 1572 service, which I’d definitely suggest you use too.9 yearsThat number, 01824954242, popped up on my phone and I didn't have a clue who it was. I answered with a pretty strong "Hello," and then the caller just dropped the call straight away.9 yearsGot a call and I reckon it was a scam.9 yearsSome guy with an Asian accent rang me claiming he was from BT and complained that our IP address was being used by someone else. He started asking about the lights on my router, which made me quite doubtful. So I told him I was tied up at the moment and would get in touch with BT myself soon. He ended the call straight away. Later, I dialled BT and found out it was a scam after all - glad I trusted my gut!BT9 yearsGot a call from a lady with an Asian accent claiming she was from BT. She told me to look at the light on my router and said someone was using my IP address without permission. I asked her which broadband company I was with. Then a guy with a similar accent took the call and told me my postcode. I asked him to confirm my broadband provider, and he said Virgin Media. I told him that was incorrect, said goodbye, and ended the call straight away.BTVirgin Media9 yearsI received yet another phone call, this time from an individual claiming to represent BT, insisting there’s an issue with my internet connection. It's becoming a daily occurrence, though the numbers vary. Despite having been on the Telephone Preference Service for years, I'm still inundated with these unsolicited calls every single day. It’s incredibly frustrating!BT9 yearsI got a call from a guy with an Asian accent claiming to be from BT, saying someone else was using our IP. He started asking about the lights on my router, which seemed a bit dodgy. I told him I was tied up and would ring BT back myself later. After that, he just ended the call.BT9 yearsGot a call from an Asian bloke saying he was with BT and wanted me to check my router. When I asked for a phone number to verify, he just ended the call. What really threw me was that he already knew my name, address and postcode. Bit worrying if you ask me.BT9 yearsGot a call from a guy with an Asian accent, said his name was David Miller from BT. He told me my internet was being accessed abroad because of some dodgy popups we'd supposedly clicked. Before I could say much, he just ended the call - pretty sure he knew I wasn’t buying it.David MillerBTSubmit Your Own Report (01824 954242)
