I keep getting calls from this number on my home phone, and it's starting to get really annoying.

Got a call from a person saying they were from Amazon, claiming there was a purchase made on my account. They told me to press 1 to sort it out, but I didn't press anything, just hung up.

Got a call from an Asian number early morning around half eight - ended the call as soon as I picked up.

Got a call from an 01956 number earlier today, but when I picked up there was no one on the other end. It's so frustrating when people keep doing this.

I just got a call from 01956107445 on both my mobile and landline. Shortly after, they left a voicemail on my landline saying that someone had placed an order with a reference number and it’s costing £1250 on my account. I didn’t take it seriously and ignored it, but I reckon if an older person got this call, they’d be proper stressed out. These scammers really need to be stopped.

I keep getting calls from 01956 136732, and it’s some rough recorded voice pretending to be BT warning me my broadband and phone will be cut off. It’s definitely a scam, so I just end the call straight away.

Got a call from someone claiming to be ‘Openreach’, asking if my internet was working. If I’d said yes, I’m sure they’d have launched into some story about my connection being slow or about to be disconnected. The caller had an Asian accent with a lot of noise in the background - clearly trying to frighten me into handing over money or details. The number was 01956 585199. Funny thing is, 01956 isn’t even a real area code, so that’s a dead giveaway it’s a scam. They usually ring up first thing in the morning - so annoying I’ve taken to putting my phone on silent just to avoid the hassle.

Got a call from this number claiming to be SKY, saying my internet was running slow and I needed to log on to fix issues. I just told them to bugger off.

Just got a call from 01956693811 earlier, the person claimed to be from Amazon saying my account was charged £399.00. They never used my name, just called me “customer” right from the start. I hung up straight away and blocked the number so I won’t be bothered again.

I just said hi and the person on the other end instantly hung up. Weird.

I got calls from 01895987825 and 01906169536 where they told me my phone line was going to be disconnected soon and asked me to press 1 or 2. I just hang up straight away both times.

Just got a robo call claiming my BT phone and broadband were about to be cut off. Honestly sick of all these BT scam calls. I’ve only been with BT for 3 months and already I’m getting loads of them every month. BT’s advice is to ignore calls from unknown numbers, but that’s useless when I get loads of legitimate calls from companies asking for quotes. Not impressed at all!

Got a call earlier from a number I didn’t recognise, then after a few seconds I heard a recorded voice saying something about the message being forwarded. I just hung up straight away cos I knew it was those scammers who keep switching up their 017, 018, and 019 prefixes. They've been pulling this trick for ages now. I’ve even reported them to BT and was advised to block the number, but that’s useless really since they never ring from the same one twice. It’s like playing whack-a-mole with these lot!

Been getting calls from this number saying it’s BT and that my internet service is about to be cut off. Bit suspicious if you ask me.

I've had them ring me a few times, but whenever I ask who's on the line, they just cut off. The voice sounded like it was Asian.
