Chose not to pick up after reading all the bad reviews, figured it was likely a scam.

I got a call from some bloke who barely spoke any English, claiming to be from Virgin Media about an issue with my internet. I told him I’m already online and everything is fine. He kept going on, but I just told him to stop bothering me and ended the call. These callers are really irritating and sketchy, I’m totally done with being hassled every single day.

Got a call earlier from this number claiming to be Virgin, saying there was an issue with my internet. Bit funny since Virgin don't even offer service round here yet 😂 Told them straight away, “Morning! I know about this kind of scam, I’m blocking you and reporting this number!”

This number called me saying my internet wasn’t running as fast as it ought to be. The guy asked if I was online and said he’d help me fix the issue. I told him I’d already checked with my internet provider’s website and everything seemed fine. Then he just hung up on me.

Got another one of those calls where no one actually says anything. What's the point of ringing up and then just hanging up like that? Proper waste of time and cash if you ask me.

About five days back, I got a call from a lady with a thick accent, claiming there was an issue with my "Virgin Internet". I told her I actually use BT, so she must be pulling my leg. Then, just this morning, the same number popped up again, but this time she said there’s a problem with my "BT line". I told her I’m actually with TalkTalk. Might just say I’m with Sky next time to see what happens. There’s gotta be some way to block these annoying pests for good.

Called me claiming to be from Virgin Media about my slow internet. I told them everything was working fine and asked if they could verify who I was since they said they were from my provider. Then, out of nowhere, the person started talking fast in some foreign language and just dropped the call.

Got a call recently from an older lady saying she was calling from Spain for the Canarian Legal Alliance. Not sure if that’s legit since the CLA’s office is actually in Las Palmas, Canary Islands. Feels like whoever she’s representing might just be riding on the back of CLA’s wins with timeshare fraud cases over there. Bit suspicious if you ask me.

As soon as the person answered with just a "hello," I cut them off and told them to remove my number from their list. Then I ended the call straight away. That number’s definitely blocked on my phone now.

Got a call from a woman who said she was with the Canarian Legal Alliance down in Malaga. She claimed they could sort out compensation for me because of a timeshare I was supposedly mis-sold. Seemed a bit dodgy to me.

I've got a feeling these timeshare people are just trying to get money off us, probably so they can help us get rid of it!

this number has been ringing me off and on for about 13 years now, always asking for a Mr Long. im not that person and its getting really annoying. i’d like to find a way to put an end to these calls because it feels like harassment to me. if it happens again i’m seriously thinking of reporting it to the police.
