Reports on phone number 02156985264
7 yearsGot a call from this number today at about 9.07am, some bloke with an Asian accent. He was struggling to make sense but said something about being from BT Openreach support. I let him talk nonsense for a bit, then he asked if I was still listening and how I was doing. I just replied, “I’m alright, cheers. Bye,” and ended the call.9 yearsSeems like loads of folks who answered calls from 02156985264 reckon the person’s pretending to be from BT and asking to access their computers remotely. For me, I had issues with my phone line and internet not long ago, then this number started ringing me. Makes me wonder if the caller’s got some sort of insider info from BT itself? Has anyone else noticed calls from this number after dealing with BT troubles?BT9 yearsGot a call today from a guy with an Asian accent on 02156985264 claiming to be from BT security. Said there was a problem with my internet but when I told him I don’t have BT internet, he just ended the call. Pretty sure it was a scam.BT9 yearsThe phone made a noise and when I answered, there was nothing but silence. So, I tried calling back, only to find that the number wasn't familiar at all. Quite frankly, this is simply intolerable!9 yearsI received a call from this number, but there was silence on the other end. When I attempted to return the call, the number couldn’t be identified. This is completely outrageous!9 yearsThis morning I got a call from 02156985264. I’ve got call blockers on my phone, so I’m pretty suspicious of numbers like this. No genuine provider such as BT would randomly ring like that. I’ve had calls before claiming to be from Talk Talk, but they turned out to be scams too. They even tried to scare me by saying my internet would be cut off for two months, which isn’t possible. They had no clue who my actual provider was, and I don’t share that info with anyone. Best advice: only pick up calls from people you know and never share any personal info about yourself or your family.BT9 yearsGot a call from a bloke who sounded really hard to understand, said he was from BT or something, going on about my phone line being at risk of hackers. I just said, "Right, this is a scam then," and slammed the phone down. I mean, if BT's ringing you out of the blue without you trying to contact them first, what else could it be other than a scam? Makes no sense at all!BT9 yearsA bloke with an Indian accent, calling himself 'John Parker', said he was ringing from BT. He told me someone had hacked into my internet and all my gadgets, and that he needed to access my internet settings to sort it out. He asked if I had a laptop or desktop, but I didn’t reply and just put the phone down. Even then, he stayed on the line for about three minutes trying to get me to talk. Total scam, just after my login info.John ParkerBT9 yearsHonestly, steer clear of this, it’s obviously a total rip-off. Don’t even bother with it.9 yearsThis number has been ringing me pretty much daily, but I never pick up. Still, the calls just keep on coming. Appreciate all the info people are sharing here.9 yearsReceived a call this morning at 10:15 from a chap claiming to be from BT technical support. He went on about some hackers apparently exploiting my IP address and insisted that they required access to my laptop to fix it. I told him I appreciated the warning but I’d rather get in touch with BT directly myself. At that point, he cut the line. What a ridiculous scam!BT9 yearsReceived a call from this number at 10:12 am yesterday, 20th November 2017. I never pick up these types of calls anymore since I've got a phone with an automatic call blocker. So now they can't reach me at all. I used to have a bit of fun telling them I was working at the same company they were calling from. Since the start of 2011, I've been bombarded with a staggering 1,464 of such calls! These days, I compile a monthly report for my Member of Parliament, who's working hard to help us eliminate these nuisances.9 yearsSomeone called saying they were from BT's tech support, but the voice had a strong Indian accent. I wasn't convinced it was legit, so I just ended the call.BT9 yearsI asked this bloke to say that again and before I knew it, he just ended the call. Bit strange, really.9 yearsGot a few calls from a woman with an Asian accent, saying she was ringing from BT about my broadband speed being slow (which it definitely isn’t). She wanted to run some checks but I just ended the call straight away. The number she called from was 02156985264. Didn’t bother chatting with her at all.BT9 yearsThe chap claimed he needed to get onto my computer, insisting that others were tapping into my internet. When I informed him that my computer was on the fritz, he promptly terminated the call. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!9 yearsThank goodness, there was nobody at the other end of the line! I managed to go ahead and check and block those pesky numbers without interruption.9 yearsGot a call from some bloke with an Indian accent claiming he was from BT - but he definitely wasn’t. He’s been ringing non-stop. My husband had a word with BT before, and they confirmed they hadn’t contacted us at all..TB. T.9 yearsGot a call from some bloke claiming to be from BT about my broadband. I told him I wasn’t buying it and asked for his number. The cheeky guy just repeated the BT 0800 number. When I asked what he wanted, he just hung up on me! I dialled 1471 afterwards and the number showed as 02156985264, which doesn’t look like a real BT contact. These calls to my landline are driving me mad!9 yearsJust got a call from 02156985264, but I couldn't pick up as I was busy. It kept ringing on and on, which made me think it was probably one of those annoying calls. I used 1471 to see who it was, then looked it up here. After seeing what other people said, I’m definitely adding it to my ‘Black List.’ Big thanks to B.T. for making this feature available, it’s really handy!B. T.9 yearsHad a call from someone claiming to be Peter from BT Security - worst Indian accent I’ve ever heard! He said someone was using my internet for dodgy stuff and offered to sort it out. When I told him I don’t even own a computer, he just hung up on me. Proper dodgy behaviour.BT Security9 yearsI received a call from a bloke claiming to be from BT, saying my internet had some kind of issue. I thought it sounded dodgy, so I asked him to provide my account number. He couldn’t give it and soon after just cut the call. Pretty sure it was a scam.BT9 yearsToday, I got a call on our landline from a bloke who sounded like he was from India. He kept saying my broadband had been hacked and claimed he was ringing on BT’s behalf. He asked for both my hub number and BT account details, saying he'd arrange for a technician to come out, so I guessed he wanted our address. Something felt off, so I hung up and contacted BT straight away, who told me it was definitely a scam. The number he rang from was 02156985264.IndiaBT9 yearsI got a call from some guy claiming his name was Jack Barker, he was saying there was something wrong with my internet. I just told him ‘what’s next, you gonna say my computer’s busted as well?’ Then he hung up on me. It’s always Indian callers ringing me these days.Jack Barker9 yearsI've received calls from this number on consecutive days, precisely at 10:55 in the morning. Each time, they went straight to voicemail without leaving a message. The caller ID showed as an international number. After a quick search online, I discovered it's a scam. I've decided to block the number now.9 yearsGot a call from a guy with an Indian accent who said his name was Peter, claiming to be from BT. I told him straight up he was lying, and he ended up swearing at me before cutting the call. What on earth is the government doing about these scams?PeterBTGovernment9 yearsYesterday, I got a call from a man with an Indian accent claiming he was from BT. My partner asked a few questions which seemed to annoy him a lot. He ended up swearing at my partner and hanging up. Today, we got another call, with the same "I'm from BT" spiel. My partner told them to remove our number from their list and said he was aware they weren’t really from BT. They quickly ended the call after that.BT9 yearsOh, here we go again with the classic BT con! They ring up claiming that your phone line is being used unlawfully by others or some such nonsense. It’s the same story every time!BT9 yearsSome bloke from India saying he was with BT called me. I just cut him off right away.9 yearsReceived a call back on 25th October 2017 from someone saying my internet would be cut off for 48 hours. When I asked if they thought I was with BT, they said yes. I told them I wasn’t a BT customer, and they replied that my own provider would contact me soon. Then, when I asked why, they claimed some unknown people were using my internet and it needed to be checked for security reasons. I just thanked them and ended the call. Don’t get worried or fooled by calls like this!9 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be BT, saying there was an issue with my fibre broadband, which I don’t actually have. When I told them I knew it was a scam and called them out, they quickly ended the call. Then, a couple of days later, they rang again but this time I just got an answerphone with someone saying goodbye before hanging up.BT9 yearsThis number keeps ringing me non stop and I never pick up anymore. So irritating!9 yearsToday, I received a call from an Indian gentleman who alleged he was part of a tech support team. However, I immediately sensed it was a dodgy call and hung up, referring to him as a scammer.9 yearsI received a rather dubious call purporting to be from BT, insisting that hackers had compromised my IP address and were unlawfully utilising my internet connection. They asked me to connect my laptop so they could purportedly remedy the situation. I firmly told them that if there was indeed an issue that needed attention, they'd better send out an engineer, seeing as I already pay a handsome amount for their services. After that, I promptly disconnected the call. Honestly, do they really believe I'm gullible enough to fall for such nonsense?BT9 yearsA chap from India rang me up, probing about my internet connection, and ominously mentioned he'd disconnect me!India9 yearsGot a call from someone who sounded Asian, saying they were from BT. They claimed someone was trying to hack my internet through my router. Told them a load of rubbish to confuse them and they hung up pretty sharpish. Sounds dodgy to me!BT9 yearsdefinitely a dodgy number, dont trust it.9 yearsJust got a call, after a short pause an Indian lady said she was from BT. I didn't wait and hung up straight away. Tried ringing back but it said "your call can't be connected". Checked this website and it backed up what I thought all along.BT9 yearsReceived a call during my lunch break from this number. A lady with an Indian accent identified herself as being from BT tech support and inquired about the state of my internet connection. I decided to end the call.BT9 yearsI got four calls and they were just laughing on the other end. I finally told them to get lost, and after that, they never called back.9 yearsI received a phone call from an Asian gentleman who claimed to be with BT technical support. He went on about various issues with my internet connection, but I mentioned that I was rather busy at the moment. To my surprise, he then threatened to cut off my internet service right there and then! Oddly, the call registered as coming from overseas.BT9 yearsI got a short message left on my phone, then the call was ended right away. When I tried ringing them back, the call just dropped instantly. This number is meant to be private and only shared with a select few, so it’s worrying me that somehow someone might have leaked it and is trying to reach me through it. Feels like a breach of privacy to me.9 yearsIt was just dead silent with no one speaking, so I ended the call. Whenever I get those weird quiet intros, it’s almost always a scam - usually pretending they’re calling from BT but actually from somewhere like India. I’m not falling for it!9 yearsI got a call from a guy with an Indian accent who pretended to be from BT. He told me my internet would be disconnected because apparently, someone was accessing it remotely and messing it up. He called me by the wrong name, then insisted that was actually his name. I just ended the call straight away.BT9 yearsI got a call from a man saying he was with BT, claiming someone was using my internet. But I was like, wait, I dont even have internet at my place! Pretty obvious scam if you ask me.BT9 yearsI received a phone call from this number earlier today. It was a chap with an Indian accent claiming to be from BT Technical Support, discussing issues with my internet connection. Quite odd, really, as I’m actually with TalkTalk!BTTalkTalk9 yearsGot a ring from some bloke claiming to be with BT, saying there was an issue with my BT line. Funny thing is, I actually use TalkTalk, so that made no sense at all!BTTalkTalk9 yearsOn 7th October 2017, I got a call on my landline from a guy with an Indian accent who claimed someone was using my internet somewhere else. He kept asking about the number of blue lights showing on my router. I wasn’t convinced and ended the call straight away. He said he was from BT, but the phone number he rang me from was 02156985264. Seemed fishy to me.BT9 yearsEarlier today, around 2 o'clock in the afternoon, I received a call from a rather gentle-voiced gentleman of Indian descent. To my surprise, he addressed me by my first name, which he clearly knew. He stated that he was with the UK Police National Crime Investigation Service. However, when I asked him for his officer ID number, he abruptly cut the call. Quite a curious incident, to say the least!UK Police National Crime Investigation Service9 yearsI got a call from a gentle sounding man with an Indian accent who said he was a police officer from the UK National Crime Centre and even knew my first name. When I asked for his police ID number to verify who he was, he just cut the call straight away.UK National Crime Centre9 yearsI received a call from this number at around 2:50 PM earlier today. When I answered with a "hello," a pre-recorded voice responded with a curt "goodbye." Quite peculiar, to say the least!9 yearsGot a call, but the person just cut off straight away.9 yearsScam alert - got a call from someone called Jason, said he's from India. Pretty sure they're trying to get into your computer to steal personal info. Definitely not trustworthy at all.JasonIndia9 yearsI got a call from a bloke called Jason, supposedly from India.

Definitely not a common thing to come across!Jason9 yearslooks like there’s some issue with pei but I definitely don’t!9 yearsWatch out, this is definitely a con. They'll attempt to trick you into giving away your bank info. Best to report it right away.9 yearsThey tried that classic trick, saying some random person got into my wifi.
