9 yearsI received calls from a different number that seemed all too familiar with my name, but their English was quite poor. It's clearly a spam attempt.9 yearsI received a call from a different number, and they seemed to know my name. Clearly, it's just another spam attempt.9 yearsSo this bloke rings up claiming he's from Talk Talk, but we don't even use them. He goes on about some issue with our internet, and when I asked what exactly the problem was, he just kept telling me to listen to him. I told him to listen to me instead, and then he just hung up! Total scam, definitely a con!TalkTalk10 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be TalkTalk, saying I owed money and needed to pay right away. Definitely a scam trying to get me to pay some fake bill over the phone.TalkTalk10 yearsThis number won’t stop ringing me, and if I don’t pick up my phone, it just shows “line busy” for ages. Basically, it’s like they keep the call open deliberately, which I’ve heard is a typical scam since with landlines, the call doesn’t end until both sides hang up. So if you see this or any strange number on your landline, it’s best not to use the phone at all - unless, like me, you have a phone that lets you know if the line is still active.11 yearsThe number looked a bit dodgy so I just ignored it, happy to see I wasn’t the only one when I checked the comments later.11 yearsGot a call earlier from someone claiming to be from TalkTalk's tech support. They've bugged me a few times now, even before the recent issues TalkTalk has been having. I hung up straight away. The lady said her name was Anna, and funny enough, she sounded a bit more native this time.TalkTalkAnna11 yearsThis number has rung me four times over the past three days. Two calls came on the same day, then once in the evening and once early this morning. I usually ignore calls from unknown numbers and let my voicemail pick them up. If it’s something pressing, they leave a message so I can decide if I want to call back. But telemarketers and scammers never bother with messages! When a number keeps calling, I always Google it to see who it might be, then I block it. This one’s definitely going on my block list! (BTW, we’re ex-directory and signed up to the Telephone Preference Service, yet the nuisance calls keep coming!)GoogleTelephone Preference Service11 yearsReceived a call just shy of 9 o'clock on a Saturday morning. It seemed to be an auto-dialing system, yet a person with quite broken English was on the other end. I could’ve sworn they mentioned something about internet service, but I ended up hanging up the phone. They knew my name, which was rather unsettling. When I tried to ring them back, I ended up reaching a ticket resale service that I’ve never even engaged with before. Strange, isn't it?11 yearsThey kept calling me over and over, mostly just hanging up straight away. Then about 5 minutes ago (around 1.45pm on 7/11/15) they rang again and were either singing or chanting something on the phone, sounded like it was in Arabic or maybe Indian. It definitely reminded me of a Muslim prayer. I'm going to report this to the cops now.11 yearsToday, this number called me two times but there was nothing but silence on the line, so I ended up just hanging up.11 yearsGot a silent call once, and another time this guy with a heavy Indian accent rang me up. When I didn't give him the details he was after straight away, he just hung up. He claimed to be from TalkTalk - which could be real, considering the poor service they provide.TalkTalk11 yearsI keep getting calls from people claiming to be from Talktalk or Windows support, trying to sneak into my PC. It’s so frustrating that nothing seems to be done to stop these scammers and take legal action against them.Talktalk11 yearsSo today I got a call from someone claiming to be from TalkTalk who wanted to get into my computer. I told them to bugger off and ended the call. Then they rang me again, asking why I'd hung up. I told them I have every right to end calls whenever I want and accused them of trying to hack me. They completely denied it and said they won't be helping me anymore!11 yearsI get calls from them multiple times every day, it’s quite annoying.11 yearsSomebody rang me, saying they were from TalkTalk, my internet provider, and asked if my connection was working right. Definitely seemed like a dodgy call to me. I'd just block the number so you don’t get bothered again.TalkTalk11 yearsI recently got a call from some muppet claiming my internet was full of errors. The moment he mentioned that, I figured it was one of those dodgy scammers from India. I played along and said, "Oh brilliant!" Totally threw him off. He tried to stick to his little script after that, but I just told him to keep checking all he wanted because I’d just keep sending errors. He was totally lost for words then, so I ended the call and hung up on the tosser.India11 yearsGot a call today from some sketchy individuals, sounded like they were calling from somewhere in South Asia. They said they were from my internet company and asked if my broadband was switched on - I said yes even though it wasn’t. Then one bloke handed me over to another guy whose English was even worse. I played along for a bit but it quickly became clear they were trying to get me to download dodgy software. Frustrated with the awful language skills, I told them I knew it was a scam because my provider was completely different. Right before they hung up, I told them my size 10 trainers would be making very quick contact with their tender bits. Stay well clear of these lot!ISP11 yearsI got a call earlier from some muppets, sounds like they were calling from somewhere in South Asia. They pretended to be from my internet provider and asked if my connection was active. I said yes, even though it wasn’t. Then the first bloke handed me over to another chap whose English was even worse than the first guy’s. I played along for a bit, realising they were trying to get me to download dodgy software. Fed up with the poor English, I told them I suspected it was a con since I use a different ISP. Right before they cut me off, I managed to warn them that my size 10 would be making rapid contact with their sensitive bits. Avoid these clowns at all costs.ISP11 yearsThe moment I picked up the phone, they hung up on me.11 yearsThey keep ringing me like, every single day - sometimes even three or four calls in one day! This has been happening for ages now, probably weeks or months. When I answer, all I hear is some rubbish noise in the background before they just cut off. Honestly, I’m so sick of it. How come there’s no law stopping these annoying calls? It’s ridiculous!11 yearsI picked up but there was complete silence on the other end, no one said a word.11 yearsIs this another bunch of con artists poppin' up?11 yearsA chap claimed to be from TalkTalk regarding our computer issues. We kindly asked him to leave us be, though perhaps not in the most direct manner!TalkTalk11 yearsI'm curious to know, what kind of scam are we actually dealing with here?11 yearsI keep getting calls from this number daily, but I just don’t pick up since I’m constantly getting scams ringing me.11 yearsSame here, I was waiting for a ring from the doctor's office but when I picked up the line just went silent. The number started with 4471. I had no clue who it was, so I didn't bother returning the call.11 yearsThis number has phoned me about seven times within just a couple of hours. I ignored it every time because the number seemed a bit dodgy.11 yearsWatch out - this number rang me saying there was some kind of security issue with my TalkTalk internet and wanted to get into my computer for 15 minutes to fix it (do they really think folks are that gullible?). They refused to give any call-back number. I checked with TalkTalk themselves and it’s definitely a scam. They phoned me again this morning but just hung up when I mentioned I’d already sorted it with EE. On my phone, the number appeared as ‘out of area’.TalkTalkEE11 yearsEarlier today, we received a call from this number. It rang twice, but there was just dead air on the other end, so we decided to hang up.11 yearsGot a couple calls from this number, first time they didn’t say a word, second time they just hung up saying bye.11 yearsSomebody rang me saying they were with my internet provider and that I’d got a virus from downloading some dodgy software. They offered to sort it out, but when I told them they didn’t actually know what software I had, they just ended the call. I rang the number again and this time a support team said their phone lines had been taken over and they were dealing with the issue.Internet Service ProviderISPSubmit Your Own Report (20888888888)
