0187388899 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 0187388899 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance scam originating from alleged BT representatives, often involving silent calls or poor-quality lines with callers speaking in non-native English accents. The number frequently rings multiple times daily, attempting to persuade recipients to confirm personal or account details under false pretences such as discounts or refunds. Many recipients report no response or hang-ups when answering, with some callers becoming aggressive if challenged. Attempts to block the number or report it to authorities appear ineffective, and it is widely regarded as fraudulent. Users are advised not to engage with the callers or disclose any information, to remain cautious of unsolicited calls claiming to be from BT, and to utilise call blocking services where possible.

I reckon I just had a call from the same woman, and I gave her the same answer as before. They’d already rung my missus earlier this week. What’s worked for me before is asking them to connect me to someone that speaks proper English. They usually get annoyed pretty quick, and the last bloke even told me he was Nigerian before he ended the call. I tried reporting it to Action Fraud but honestly, it’s pointless - they don’t even ask for enough details to take any real action.

Got a call early Saturday morning around 8:30 from a woman with a foreign accent, but the connection was so poor I barely heard anything except something about BT accounts. I told her off for calling so early on a weekend and then just ended the call. After seeing the other comments here, I’m relieved I didn’t waste any more time.

01873 88999 keeps ringing my phone but no ones ever there when I pick up. I probably get about ten calls from them every week. There’s also these other calls that show up as "International" on my caller ID, but since there’s no actual number attached, it’s impossible to block them. It’s pretty annoying!

My mate got a call from someone this morning pretending to be from Windows tech support. They kept pushing her to hand over her login info. When she said no, they just started yelling at her on the phone. It felt really sketchy. I’d say avoid them for sure.

Clearly, this is an automated calling system at play. I've blocked the number, yet it still manages to ring once before the block takes effect. It’s rather annoying, to say the least!

Since Monday morning, I keep getting two calls daily around 8 and 8.30 am. It’s always the same thing - silence on the other end. Once, it was an Asian woman’s voice, but every other time, no sound at all. Seems like they're just ringing and hanging up.

Got a call bright and early on a Saturday, supposedly from BT. They were saying I could save 35% on my bill and wouldn’t have to pay line rental anymore. When I didn’t play along and told them I wasn’t a BT customer, they just ended the call. I’ve blocked that number since then.

Really enjoyed reading the "Grumpy Old Man" story from yesterday (11th May) about stringing that caller along for a whole ten minutes. Brilliant! This number has rung me three times today already - first I politely asked them to stop calling, the second time I was firmer, and the third time I pretty much snapped and told them off for good. From now on, I’ll definitely be a bit befuddled and cranky too! Cheers for the tip.

Every single day, the phone rings at 12.05, but when I pick up, there's absolutely no one there. This has been going on for ages. After a bit, a message comes on saying the line’s been cleared. It's the same thing happening repeatedly. Surely this kind of thing isn’t allowed, right?

I got two quiet calls from this number before a lady with an Asian accent said she was calling from BT billing. The connection was awful. I told her if it was truly BT calling, then the quality should be clearer. I ended the call and blocked the number straight away.

I kept them hanging with made-up info since I don’t have a BT connection. They passed me upstairs to a manager, I fed him some nonsense too and he seemed suspicious! Ended by calling him a dirty liar - he obviously wasn’t happy about that!

I think they’re scammers - the best thing to do is keep them on the line calling them names and never hang up. Seems like it ends up costing them cash.

This morning I got a call from a woman with an Asian accent, but honestly, I couldn’t catch what she was saying apart from something about BT. I told her a couple of times I didn’t understand, then just ended the call. I’ve set my phone to block calls now, so hopefully she won’t be able to ring me again.

Just got a call again this week from a foreign lady using the same number. She kept asking to speak to the account owner, even though last time I told her I wasn’t. When I refused again and told her it’s a scam, she quickly ended the call. Proper fishy behaviour!

They rang me about five times in a single afternoon, saying I was such an excellent BT client that they wanted to give me a refund on my line rental. Pretty funny, since I don’t even have BT!

Got a call supposedly from BT about issues with my line, but the woman’s English was a bit dodgy. She did seem to have some details about me, though the address she read out was a bit off. She was pushing this offer of 3 months free rental, sounded like she was just reading from a script. I interrupted, said cheers for the offer, asked her to send something in writing to the address she had, then just ended the call. Didn’t trust it one bit.

I've been getting calls from this number too, mostly silent ones for like a week. Yesterday I finally answered and it was an Asian woman saying I could get 3 months of free line rental, but she wanted me to verify my details first. I wasn’t convinced so I just ended the call. Then today at about 9.20am, the same number called again but stayed silent. Watch out for this one!

Got a call about 2:45 this afternoon from a woman with an Asian accent saying she was from BT and had a discount offer. She asked me to verify my details since I was supposedly the account holder. When I told her I'm not the account holder and can't share personal info due to DPA rules, she just hung up.

Someone said they were from BT's Accounts team and told me I could get three months of free line rental. When I asked for my account number to check it, she just dropped the call. The number they gave didn’t have enough digits anyway, so clearly a dodgy call.

Got a call from this number around 8:25 this morning (9/5/2017). When I picked up, no one said anything, but I could hear loads of noise in the background like a call centre. This must be the third or fourth time it's buzzed me just this past week.

My partner picked up the call and there was this odd silence followed by loud sounds in the back. Then, a voice with an Asian accent came on, saying they had a massive BT discount for us. We just ended the call. I checked the number with 1471 and it showed 0187388899 - yeah, right!

This was clearly some kind of scam, pretending to be from BT but completely fake. I actually find it quite amusing to mess with them a bit when they ring - assuming I’m not busy. They really don’t appreciate it and sometimes start getting rude. Honestly, who’d be so horrible as to deliberately waste folks’ time like that?
