01972760371 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01972760371 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance originating from scam callers pretending to represent Ofcom or related telecom authorities. Callers often use recorded English-accented messages threatening internet disconnection unless the recipient upgrades their broadband. Many calls are silent or hang up immediately when answered. Victims warn against engaging or providing any access to personal devices, as these calls aim to deceive and potentially gain remote control of computers. The number has been repeatedly reported for harassment, and efforts to block or report it to official watchdogs like TPS or ICO appear largely ineffective. Users commonly recommend not answering unknown calls, blocking the number, and considering disconnection of landlines due to the high volume of scam communications.
Reports on phone number 01972760371
7 yearsJust like others have said, I had a laugh with this caller from Asia claiming to be "Kevin Williams" or somethin. He kept telling me to switch on my laptop and all that rubbish, so I decided to humour him and acted like I was cooperating. I dragged it out as long as I could, then told him outright I knew he was trying to scam me before hanging up. Proper funny how they think people fall for it!Kevin Williams7 yearsGot called three times and not a word said on any of them! Tried telling the TPS but honestly, they’re useless in stopping it. Have gone ahead and blocked the number now!TPS7 yearsI received a call from someone purporting to represent Ofcom, but I suspect it's a complete fraud. Do be cautious, as this seems to be nothing more than a scam.Ofcom7 yearsI picked up the phone but the caller just cut off straight away. Pretty sure it was a spoofed number - I mean, Ofcom definitely isn’t based in Glanborrowdale! And I’m sure BT isn’t there either, lol.GlanborrowdaleBT7 yearsGot a call from 01972760371 a bit ago, it was one of those recorded voices with a posh English accent claiming to be Ofcom. They said if I didn’t upgrade my broadband, my internet would get disconnected. I just hung up straight away and blocked the number. Honestly, I’m starting to think about ditching my landline altogether since nearly every call I get is some sort of scam.Ofcom7 yearsIn just a couple of hours, I've gotten three calls from this number. Since I don't recognise it, I haven't answered any. They don’t bother leaving a voicemail either.7 yearsAbout an hour ago I got a call from 01972760371, must have been the third time this week. The person had an English accent and said something about upgrading my broadband or facing disconnection. Even though I was sure it was a scam, it did come across as pretty intimidating.7 yearsI didn’t pick up since the number wasn’t familiar. Interestingly, about an hour earlier, a call came through from 01462760371, which is also from Hitchin, and the last six digits matched exactly.Hitchin7 yearsA couple minutes back I got a call from this number but I ignored it since it didn’t look familiar. After checking the reviews here, I’m relieved I didn’t answer. They didn’t leave any voicemail either. Definitely seems like a scam!7 yearsLike some folks here mentioned, a pre-recorded message claimed to be from OFCOM telling me to upgrade or my internet would be cut off. I just ended the call right away.OFCOM7 yearsGot another ring from these muppets today. Have already reported them to the ICO, TPS and Ofcom - but probably a waste of time. Honestly, how are these idiots still allowed to operate? They should be shut down for good.OfcomTPSICO7 yearsI’d already flagged this number this morning, and they called back again a little while ago. When I answered, it was one of those automated messages saying my internet needed an update and that I should hold on to chat with someone. I couldn’t help but curse before I hung up.7 yearsGot a text saying BT Ofcom needs me to update my info or I'll get cut off. They told me to hold the line, but I just ended the call!BT Ofcom7 yearsGot a call claiming to be from Ofcom, saying they would disconnect my number if I didn't do the upgrade. Pretty suspicious if you ask me.Ofcom7 yearsGot a voicemail from 01972760371, sounded like a bloke with a proper English accent saying he was calling on behalf of Ofcom about upgrading my internet. He kept going on about staying on the line to speak to an operator. These crooks reckon that putting on a posh voice will trick us into falling for their rubbish scams. It's getting ridiculous how much they keep invading our privacy with this nonsense. Like always, I just ended the call straightaway. Honestly, I’m tempted to just cut off my landline, since all that ever bothers me on it are these scammers!Ofcom7 yearsGot a call from some folks who sounded Indian, saying they were from OFCOM. Just so you know, OFCOM is an independent regulator, totally separate from BT. This is a classic scam where they try to get you to hand over access to your computer. Whatever you do, don’t fall for it!IndiaOFCOMBT7 yearsNo voicemail left, seems dodgy to me, this is like the third time I’ve got a suspicious call today already.7 yearsGot called a couple times by someone claiming to be from Ofcom, but I reckon it was a scam.Ofcom7 yearsI’ve just had my second call from these chaps today, and the first number they rang me from was 01631423805. Seems like a right scam to me!7 yearsGot a call from OFCOM saying I have to do a compulsory upgrade on my internet or they’re going to disconnect me.OFCOM7 yearsGot two calls in about 30 mins from someone claiming to be Ofcom, saying I had to update my broadband info or they'd disconnect me. Just ended the call those times.Ofcom7 yearsGot a call but nobody said a word, just dead silence on the other end. Quite strange!Submit Your Own Report (01972 760371)
