I've been experiencing this for a fair while, but in recent days, the frequency of calls from this particular number has noticeably surged. What's rather concerning is that during some of these calls, the caller seems to have access to certain personal information. Despite my registration with several services meant to curb such nuisances, it appears they offer little in the way of protection. Even with various call-blocking options at my disposal, it doesn’t seem long before these persistent nuisances find new methods to pester me once again.

I've been receiving calls at all hours from this persistent Asian woman claiming to represent Talktalk, insisting there's an issue with my computer. I made it very clear to her that I wasn't interested in any of that nonsense and instructed her not to ring me again. I also mentioned that I'd be reporting the number.

Got a call from an Asian woman on 0810 who claimed to be from my broadband company. I cut her off pretty quick, saying we don’t have any kind of computer at home. She tried to say I must have a laptop, but I told her laptops are pure trouble and we absolutely don’t keep any around here. She got a bit thrown off, stumbled over what she was saying, then just ended the call. Note to self: use this one again if someone rings in future.

Got a call early this morning at about 8:15 from a fella claiming to be from TalkTalk about our internet. He kept saying he spoke to my hubby, which baffled me. I asked him for a phone number to ring back, but he said he was just a service engineer and couldn't provide one. I arranged a time for him to call again. Curious to see what comes of it since we don’t even have TalkTalk!

Got a call from some guy saying he was with Talk Talk. He reckoned we might be having internet issues and joked that we might not afford a new router (bit cheeky if you ask me). I told him to hang on a sec while I looked into it, but after about 15 seconds on hold, they just hung up. Just another spam call messing about with my time.

Around 1pm, I got a call from a woman with an Asian accent claiming she was from TalkTalk. I immediately told her it was a scam and didn’t believe a word she said. She tried to convince me by offering to share personal info to prove her identity, but I wasn’t having it and just hung up straight away.

Had loads of missed calls all week from the same number, finally picked up today. The woman claimed to be from "Talk Talk." I told her to just send me an email to prove who she was and then ended the call. She was bold enough to ring back saying she already had my info. I made it clear, not to call us anymore, no way! Feels like they’re trying to get remote access or my card info, don’t trust them at all.

Received a call from an Asian chap claiming to be Alan Johnson from Talk Talk. He mentioned that they’d received reports of other IP addresses attempting to access my connection and requested I power up my computer for them to investigate. My response was a firm, "I don't think so," followed by hanging up. This seems to be a recurring situation for me...don’t they ever learn to take a hint?

Today at 11 o’clock, this number rang my home phone but I didn’t pick up, so it just went to voicemail with no message left. After reading the other comments here, it’s clear this is some sort of scam call trying to get into your computer and steal personal info.

For the past week, I've been getting calls every day from 0208887898888. They never bother leaving a voicemail, which pretty much tells you to just block and ignore. Definitely not worth picking up!

So, I got a call from this number yesterday and, naturally, I blocked it. But wouldn’t you know it, they tried their luck again today, this time adding a 0044 prefix to evade the blocker. What utter scoundrels! Of course, I blocked them once more, but it’s incredibly frustrating to deal with such tricks.

This number rang me up around lunch time today. The bloke on the line had an Indian accent and claimed he was an engineer from Talk Talk. He then asked if I used a laptop or a computer for the internet. When I asked what for, he said my laptop was infected with malware and he could fix it. I told him to call back later and immediately contacted Talk Talk myself. They told me it was a scam and no genuine engineer would ever ring out of the blue like that. I've blocked the number and reported it now.

Had a rather dodgy phone call today from a chap claiming to be called Peter, supposedly from TalkTalk. He just rattled off my surname without any pleasantries or even a polite Mr. in front of it. It was evident he was out of his depth and most likely not even affiliated with TalkTalk at all. Definitely sounded like a scam to me. I hung up posthaste and made sure to block the number.

Just got a call from this number early this morning around 9am. Thankfully, I've got call blocking so managed to stop it. Honestly, how much more of this nonsense are we expected to tolerate? It’s gone way too far now, especially when people might be waiting on crucial news from hospitals or the police or care facilities. It feels like a complete breach of privacy!

I received a rather dubious phone call from a gentleman claiming to be from TalkTalk. He insisted I should access my computer straight away because of some supposed error. Oddly enough, he never bothered to verify my identity or ask for any of my details. It felt rather fishy, so I decided to hang up. Definitely seemed like a scam to me!

So, this call said it was from TalkTalk. They had us chatting for like an hour, then suddenly they put a big refund in my bank. After that, they said it was an accident! We ended the call and phoned the bank straight away. Luckily, we still have the money and guess what? They had the nerve to call us back two days later. Seriously, what cheek!

This morning at 9 o'clock, I got a call from this number. Fortunately, I have the option to block such nuisance calls. How much longer are we, the ordinary folk, expected to endure this constant intrusion into our private lives? It’s becoming absolutely ludicrous, particularly when families might be anticipating important calls from hospitals, the police, or care homes. It's nothing short of a complete disregard for our privacy!

I received a call from this number yesterday. The chap on the line introduced himself as Peter, and he had a distinctly Asian accent. He claimed there was an issue with my internet connection and requested that I log onto my computer. I ended the call rather promptly since it struck me as rather dodgy; he didn’t bother to ask for my name or any other identifying details-just kept pressing for me to get online. Somewhat fishy, if you ask me!

I got a call saying TalkTalk was supposedly taking control of my account from Virgin and they needed me to let them access my computer remotely to sort things out. Seemed dodgy right away, like a scam to sneak into your PC and steal personal info or passwords. Definitely didn’t fall for it.
