Phone number ☎️ 02024660005 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance originating from scammers falsely representing themselves as Microsoft support. Callers often use pressure tactics to gain remote access to victims' computers, request serial numbers, or attempt financial fraud under false pretences. Many report aggressive behaviour, repeated calls throughout the day, and reliance on fear or confusion to manipulate recipients. The calls are typically delivered in South Asian accents and frequently dismissed by recipients as scams. Despite being registered with the Telephone Preference Service, many users find calls continue unabated. Recipients are advised not to engage, provide information, or follow any instructions offered. Awareness and caution are essential, and such incidents should be reported to relevant authorities to help combat fraudulent activities.

10 yearsThis number has called me loads of times, and they're total scammers pretending to be from ‘Microsoft Support’. They try to get you to do some weird 'run/command' thing so they can get into your computer, and then ask for stuff like serial numbers. Seriously, don’t share any details with them. I just mess around now, feeding them random nonsense codes, and they always end up hanging up on me, but they keep ringing back anyway. Saying you’ve got a Mac really throws them off, it’s quite funny!Microsoft10 yearsThis number kept ringing without anyone saying a word today. Quite an annoying hassle.10 yearsThis number rang me twice yesterday, once at 11:25 and again at 16:34, and then it called again twice today at 08:34 and 10:15. Luckily, I didn’t answer. Even though I’m registered with the TPS, they don’t seem to do much to block these annoying calls. Why hasn’t BT or TPS used the tech they clearly have to stop this? Feels like someone’s profiting too much to bother cracking down on it.Telephone Preference ServiceBT10 yearsI’m so relieved I looked up this number because they call me every 30 minutes on the dot. Luckily, I’ve never picked up.10 yearsJust got another annoying ring from someone claiming to be with the TPS, saying they can send me something to stop all those pesky nuisance calls, but I’d have to pay seven quid for delivery. Thankfully I didn’t fall for it. It’s sad how many vulnerable folks probably do get caught by these tricks. Can’t anyone do something about these scammers?Telephone Preference Service10 yearsThe person on the other end had a really thick Asian accent and was nearly impossible to make out, so I didn’t bother hanging about trying to figure out what they were saying. I just told them, ‘Sorry, I’m registered with TPS, why are you ringing me?’ and then quickly ended the call. Also, the ‘0202’ prefix isn’t even a proper area code; the line just said ‘number not recognised’. It’s another dodgy scammer wasting time. When will TPS or Ofcom finally crack down on these dishonest pests?TPSOfcom10 yearsI had a call from someone saying they were with Microsoft, telling me my PC was showing loads of error codes. When I said I was a bit tied up and didn’t want to do the code thing they gave me, they started getting rude. So, I just ended the call.Microsoft10 yearsI received three calls within just five minutes during lunchtime today. I tend to steer clear of such calls by letting the answering machine pick up. Honestly, it's the best decision I've made!10 yearsReceived two calls from this number today. Each time, it was a gentleman speaking with an Indian accent claiming there was an issue with my computer. The first call, he attempted to convince me he was calling from County Durham to reel me in. I simply scoffed and hung up.County Durham10 yearsGot a call from someone with an accent that sounded Indian. He said his name was Peter William, not Williams. I just told him he was talking rubbish and told him to piss off.Peter WilliamWilliams10 yearsSome bloke rang me saying he was from Microsoft, talking about my computer. When I asked which computer, he just said ‘computer’ with no details. I told him I don’t own one, but he kept insisting I did. Then he threatened to block it and suddenly hung up. About 30 minutes later, he rang again asking if I wanted it unblocked. I just told him no thanks and ended the call right away.Microsoft10 yearsSome bloke rang me bright and early saying he was from Microsoft, but I was sure it was a scam. Honestly, he was so annoying, kept going on and wouldn’t listen.Microsoft10 yearsSomeone with an Indian accent rang me claiming to be from the Telephone Preference Service. But when I asked a few questions to check, they just ended the call.Telephone Preference Service10 yearsI've had this number 020 246 60005 ring my home phone a few times, and each time it said 'International' on the caller ID. I decided not to answer.International10 yearsFed up with these calls! Someone rang me claiming to be from the nuisance calls team, trying to fish out my bank info. I've already reported a different number to them before so I know they're not legit.10 yearsI received a call from a gentleman with an Indian accent claiming to be affiliated with Microsoft. When I confronted him about his dubious intentions and labelled him a scammer, he became quite hostile and abruptly cut the line.Microsoft10 yearsSome bloke called saying he was from Microsoft tech support, said my Windows was acting up. Thing is, I run Ubuntu, not Windows! Total scam, they’re just fishing to get into your computer. Watch out!Microsoft Tech Support10 yearsI received a call from someone who claimed to be with Microsoft, insisting they had all my personal information. The accent was distinctly South Asian, and he spoke as if he had a cold! The conversation dragged on for about six minutes, but it was clearly a scam. Could someone kindly look into this?Microsoft10 yearsWATCH OUT! This number claiming to be Microsoft has called me at least five times today. I kept telling them I don’t even have a computer and asked them to remove my number from their list. They just laughed and said everyone has one and they can’t take me off. When I said I’d report them to the police for harassment and called it a scam, they got really rude on the phone! Total nightmare.MicrosoftSubmit Your Own Report (020 2466 0005)
