01862047920 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01862047920 👆 is reported as a nuisance scam involving automated calls with a female voice, often with an American accent, claiming the recipient’s internet service will be disconnected imminently. Callers are prompted to press buttons to resolve the issue, but no genuine contact or explanation follows. The calls frequently cite BT regardless of the actual provider, causing distress and confusion, particularly around sensitive times like the holidays. Many users confirm these are hoaxes designed to alarm and manipulate recipients, with no legitimate service impact. The persistent nature of the calls and difficulty in blocking them has raised concerns about regulatory response and the need for stricter enforcement against such scams. Recipients are advised to hang up immediately and avoid engaging with these calls.

Got a call today when I was out, no voicemail left. After reading what others said, seems like "Electronic Brenda" is at it once more. The issue is, you block one number and she just rings from a different one. I keep wondering why the telecom officials aren’t cracking down harder on these calls. It can’t be that they don’t have the tech, so is it just that they don't want to bother?

What’s the point of these calls anyway? Seems like a total scam, but what do the callers actually gain? It really spooked me since the only way I can get through to my son and his wife in New Zealand is by phone. Definitely not something you want to deal with, especially around this time of year.

Got a call earlier from some automated voice with an American accent sayin my internet's gonna be cut off if I don't press 1. I just ended the call right away.

I got a call from BT saying my internet would be cut off if I didn’t do something. They told me to hit 1 or 2 on the phone. I just ended the call and dialled 1471 to check the number, which showed up as this one here.

I got a call from 01862 047920 with this automated voice that sounded American. When I pressed 1, it just said "Goodbye" and then ended the call straight away. Quite strange if you ask me!

Got a call from someone pretending to be BT, saying my internet was going to be cut off if I didn’t sort something out. Turns out it was just a total scammer trying to scare me. Watch out, don’t fall for it!

They called, my phone rang twice, and then they just hung up without saying a word. No voicemail or anything.

At 9.45 in the morning on 20th December 2018, we got a recorded call saying something like “BT will disconnect your internet today, act now or else…” When in fact, we’ve got Virgin media for our internet! My wife, who’s 52 and in perfect mental health, was really shaken by it until I reminded her who we actually get our service from. Honestly, if this kind of call can unsettle someone so sound mentally, imagine what it’s doing to folk who are more vulnerable just a few days before Christmas. This sort of thing should seriously be illegal.

Had the exact thing happen to me, got this robotic voice saying "your BT broadband will be cut off today, press 2 to sort it out." Total scam, don’t fall for it!

I said hello but got no reply, just a quick click and the call ended. Maybe they were testing the line before trying again.

Had a lady on the phone saying my internet would be cut off today. I didn’t bother hanging around, just ended the call. Pretty sure it was one of those scam calls.

I got a call from 01862 047920 and when I picked up, there was a recorded message from an American woman saying my BT internet would be disconnected today if I didn’t press 1. Definitely sounded dodgy, so I just ended the call. Looks like a total scam to me.

Got a robo call saying it’s BT warning me my internet will be disconnected today. It told me to press 1 if I wanted to keep my connection or 2 if I wanted to cancel. Sounds dodgy to me!

Got a call today with a recorded message speaking in an American accent. It said to press 1 or 2 or my internet and phone would get cut off. I just left the phone off the hook for ages, probably an hour. Hope they end up with a big bill! I’m pretty sure BT or Ofcom could trace these fools if they wanted, but they just don’t seem interested.

Got a robo call saying my internet was about to get cut off today, press 1 to fix it. They threw BT's name around but never said they were actually BT. My own provider (not BT) would never do something like this. This kind of scam is really risky for elderly or less tech-savvy people. These sorts gotta be cracked down on hard, they’re just scum.

Got a call from a woman claiming she’s with BT saying my internet was at risk. She told me to press 1 to link up with BT or press 2 to cut off my internet. I didn’t press any button and just ended the call. After that, I blocked the number to stop more calls. Whoever’s behind this dodgy stunt needs to be found and punished for bugging people - absolute scumbags trying to scare folks for their own benefit.

This number 01862047920 called me again but hung up just as I was about to pick up. They've phoned me previously, asking about my phone line and wanted some information. Seems a bit suspicious to me.

I rang BT to warn them, for sure it’s a scam. I gave them the number so they could look into it.

Got a robo call supposedly from BT saying my service would get cut off today unless I pressed 1 to fix it. Thing is, BT isn’t even my phone provider - so this is obviously some sort of scam.
