Phone number ☎️ 02080501293 👆 is reported as a number used by Inspire Telecom, which many suspect targets elderly customers with misleading claims about cheaper broadband and landline packages linked to BT and Openreach splits.

Many express annoyance and suspicion, cautioning others about potential scams, deceptive tactics, and unwelcome persistent calls that lack transparency and credible follow-up.
Reports on phone number 02080501293
6 yearsThey rang up and tried to make out they were connected to BT, saying it had divided into two separate firms. Most of what they said was confusing, but they claimed they could reduce my bills. I asked them to send me the details in writing so I could think it over. They said they don’t send any marketing letters. I told them that’s a daft way to win customers. They kept going on, but I just hung up. The whole thing felt really suspicious to me.BT6 yearsGot a call from Inspire Telecom who told me BT and Openreach had separated, and they could handle my bills now. They asked how much my payments were, but I told them if they were legit and allowed to take over, they’d already have that info. Then they just ended the call.Inspire TelecomBTOpenreach6 yearsI got called again today by Inspire Telecom for the second time. When I mentioned they’d already rung me, the bloke had a chuckle and just said sorry. I told him it wasn’t something to be joking about because what they’re doing feels like a scam. He insisted it wasn’t, but I told him to check out 'Who Called Me' and see how many people have flagged their number as shady or annoying.Inspire Telecom6 yearsWatch out for bttelecon++ - it’s a total scam!Bttelecon6 yearsGot a pesky call from some cheeky salesman today, totally unwanted!6 yearsA caller from what they said was Inspire Telecom got in touch saying my BT bill was way too high due to some splitting going on with BT, making my charges higher than they should be. I was a bit puzzled and mentioned I’d just signed a new contract with BT and was quite happy with it. After that, they hung up on me. This happened in the Leicester area.Inspire TelecomBTLeicester6 yearsCall guardian stopped it, no voicemail or anyhting!6 yearsGot a call from Inspired Telecom saying they were the wholesale arm of BT and could give me cheaper rates. They went on with a tale about BT splitting into two, with Open Reach being one half, but I know that’s old news from ages ago and doesn’t affect switching providers at all. Quite a waste of my time really.Inspired TelecomBTOpen Reach6 yearsGot a call out of nowhere from someone trying to lure me away from BT. Classic cold call sales pitch!BT6 yearsI got a call saying that Openreach and BT had separated and they could give me a better deal. It didn’t sound quite right, so I ended the call straight away.BTOpenreach6 yearsWaste of time, honestly.6 yearsThis company called Inspire Telecom told me that Openreach was independent and promised to lower my bill. Then they said they’d send me an email because they weren’t happy with something, but of course, I never got anything from them.Inspire TelecomOpenreach6 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be with Inspire Telecom, telling me I was overpaying for my landline. I told them I wasn’t signed up with Inspire or anything like that, and then they just hung up on me!Inspire Telecom6 yearsGot a call from 02080501293 earlier today but they didn’t bother leaving a message on my voicemail. Looks like the scammers are making a comeback now lockdown’s over.6 yearsI got a call from Inspire Telecom, saying they were handling the billing for my broadband and phone now, as Openreach had taken over from BT or something like that. At first, it seemed legit, but being a former BT tech, I got suspicious and looked into it more. Turns out, they’re pretty dodgy, trying to snag BT customers with slick promises. They told me I’d save loads of cash yearly and that unlike BT, their prices wouldn’t keep going up all the time. Complete rubbish. Stay well clear!Inspire TelecomOpenreachBT6 yearsThey kept asking me how much I was paying, like if they really worked for the company they'd already know. It soon hit me it was dodgy, so I told them if I wanted to lower my bill, I'd call myself, thanks.6 yearsI got a call from a woman claiming they were in charge of Open Reach’s billing now. She tried to sell me cheaper call rates but didn’t know anything about our current BT plan or how many calls we’d made. I just told her to stop wasting my time and only get back when she actually understands what she’s talking about. Definitely a scam!Open ReachBT6 yearsHad a call from BT Telecon earlier, bit annoying if you ask me!British Telecom6 yearsJust got a call from someone claiming to be from Openreach, so I told her to buzz off and find a real job.Openreach6 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be with BT, saying there was a new service for cheaper calls and TV. The sales pitch was quite pushy, and they said their company was called Viacom. That immediately sounded off to me since Viacom is a US media company and doesn’t do telecoms here in the UK. I ended the call when the woman began asking for my bank details to set up a direct debit. Totally dodgy, so I hung up and made sure to report it to BT straight away.BTViacomUK6 yearsWe let it ring through to answerphone, then just straight up ended the call.6 yearsSo, this person rang me up asking if I was the account holder for BT. When I asked their name, they claimed to be from BT Inspire and said my tariff was higher than necessary. They even gave me the final three digits of my phone number and wanted me to verify them, along with asking how many lines I had. I ended the call nicely since it felt off. Could have been risky since I figured they'd soon ask for more personal info or my full account details.BTBT Inspire6 yearsI got a call from 02080501293. The person on the line claimed BT had divided into two companies. Apparently, some customers would stay with BT, while the others would be moved over to them at a cheaper rate. They said they were from BT Inspire and asked about how many phone lines I have and what I pay. They sounded quite legit, so it could fool someone easily. Just a heads up, BT would actually get in touch properly if there was any change like this. I didn’t continue the call after that.BT6 yearsCheers for the info, though they didn’t leave a message.6 yearsThey called about my phone bill, but I told them to send all details in writing. They also brought up Openreach during the convo.6 yearsI was tryin to find out about my phone charges and they told me to send it in writing. They also brought up something about Openreach.Openreach6 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be from Openreach, saying I could get cheaper phone bills.
