8 yearsGot a call at 0912 but didn’t pick up cos call blocker stopped it. No voicemail or anything left.8 yearsGot a dodgy call pretending to be from Ofcom saying there was an issue with my broadband. Ended up reporting it to Action Fraud.OfcomAction Fraud8 yearsI got a call at 7.24 this morning, but luckily my call blocker stopped it. Getting a call so early normally means something bad, especially with a family member really unwell right now.8 yearsGot a call bright and early at 7.15am. Kinda felt uneasy since I have older family members around. Didn’t pick up because the number wasn’t familiar.8 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from Ofcom, but it was obviously a scam. Stay alert, folks!Ofcom8 yearsToday I got another call from them, but I just let it ring out. The previous time they phoned, I wasted about an hour messing with the bloke, pretending I was handing over control of my PC. It was quite fun to mess them about a bit.8 yearsI got a call from a number like 03243268650, these lot say they're from Ofcom but it’s totally a scam. Best thing to do is just keep them hanging around and waste their time!Ofcom8 yearsThey rang me again at 7.15 this morning, which wasn’t great at all. They’d also tried getting in touch yesterday. I didn't pick up since I was trying to figure out who it was first. Not really happy about the early call!8 yearsGot a call from this number around 7.30 this morning but I didn’t pick up, went to voicemail and nothing was left. Feels like a scam to me.8 yearsGot a call at 7.18 am this morning, but as soon as it went to voicemail, they just hung up. We're on the TPS list, yet these calls still come through. Clearly just another scam attempt.Telephone Preference Service8 yearsGot several of these threatening calls saying they’d cut off my internet. I didn’t go further to speak to any engineer but honestly, it’s worrying. If my elderly mum or mother-in-law got this call, they might easily be tricked. This really needs to be put a stop to. Oh, and it was at 7.12 in the morning! Aren’t marketing firms meant to avoid calling at silly times like that?8 yearsThis number phoned me three times today saying they were from Ofcom and threatening to cut off my internet if I didn’t upgrade my broadband. I’ve reported it to Ofcom, but I’m not sure if they’ll bother to take any action.Ofcom8 yearsI just let it ring through to my voicemail but they ended the call before leaving a message. After I looked it up here, I decided to block the number.8 yearsgot a call late morning from someone saying they were from ofcom. told me i had to update my internet browser straight away or my connection would be cut off. then he asked me to stay on the phone while he put me through to a tech guy. i just said thanks for wasting my time and ended the call. really worried these calls keep going, they seem pretty dodgy.Ofcom8 yearssomeone just rang me saying they were from ofcom and said i had to do a mandatory internet upgrade! i just ended the call straight away. sounded like one of those recorded messages to me.OfcomSubmit Your Own Report (024 9050 2237)
