9 yearsI searched the santander freephone 0800 number on google, and a message popped up telling me to call 0208 888888 instead. It turned out to be another scam where they mess about with a real company's number, like what happened with the land registry one, and sneak in a pricey premium rate number instead. Proper dodgy!Santander9 yearsSomeone rang me saying they were from TalkTalk and wanted to speak to the account holder. I told them they were actually speaking to the local police station, and they just went quiet and ended the call.TalkTalk10 yearsThis number has been ringing our home quite persistently.10 yearsGot a call from some bloke insisting my “internet” was downloading harmful stuff right then and there. I told him my router hadn’t been on all day since we were decorating. Then I gave him a quick rundown of how networks work, probably more than he wanted. He snapped back with, “why’re you wasting my time, you motherf###er?” I just chuckled and ended the call.11 yearsSomebody called and said they were from TalkTalk.TalkTalk11 yearsJust like a few other calls, this one said they were from TalkTalk. I told them I’m not a TalkTalk customer anymore, then they just ended the call. Pretty annoying!TalkTalk11 yearsBeen getting loads of calls, like 20 in just a couple of weeks, and crazily, I had 4 of them just yesterday alone!11 yearsSomebody said they were from Talk Talk and tried to get me to turn my computer on. I just ended the call straight away.TalkTalk11 yearssomeone rang me saying they were from talktalk and even knew the right name on the account. but I actually stopped my service with them back in june. I just didn’t bother getting into it and ended the call.TalkTalk11 yearsI received a rather peculiar call from this number earlier today. A chap with an accent, claiming to represent TalkTalk (which happens to be my provider for both phone and internet), informed me that my computer had apparently downloaded some dodgy files. I firmly let him know that I’d handle the matter myself without his so-called assistance. It smells strongly of a scam, if you ask me! And I can't quite fathom how they were even aware that TalkTalk is my provider in the first place. Quite suspicious, wouldn’t you agree?Submit Your Own Report (208888888)
