Phone number ☎️ 0271591155 👆 is reported as a persistent scam operation involving callers impersonating major UK utility and internet providers such as BT, British Gas, EON, Scottish Power, and Opus. Callers, often with Asian or Indian accents, claim issues with internet security - specifically IP address changes from private to public - or problems with energy accounts and meters, in attempts to extract personal or financial information. Many report rude behaviour when challenged or refused cooperation. Calls frequently come from international or unknown numbers, with some using aggressive tactics or recorded messages. Users consistently warn not to provide details, to verify with official providers, and to block these numbers. This highlights the importance of vigilance against telephone scams claiming to offer technical support or account assistance.

8 yearsMissed a call from this number earlier, seems dodgy. Cheers to everyone for the info, I'll be sure to block that scammer asap. A.8 yearsGot a call from an Asian guy who was saying my IP address switched from private to public. When I mentioned I don’t do internet banking, he seemed to lose interest pretty quick. He told me to turn off my computer and keep it off for about 30 minutes.8 yearsSomeone rang me pretending to be from BT, saying my internet was suddenly listed as a public network and they could fix it to stop hackers. I just told him that was probably the plan all along! Luckily, he didn’t argue too much before hanging up. This was the second time this week, each time from a new number. When are these scammers gonna be caught? Is anyone actually doing anything about all this?BT8 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from BT about my internet. I told them I don’t even have internet with them and they just hung up on me.BT8 yearsAt 9.10 in the morning on July 3rd, I got a call from a woman saying she was from BT about my internet, but I actually have a different provider. When I told her I knew it was a scam, she just told me to "Shut up" and hung up. Just a classic telemarketer trying it on, so I’ve blocked the number now.BSTBT8 yearsGot a call just a few moments ago, some bloke claiming his BT server noticed my connection was set as public instead of private. I listened for a little while, but got fed up and told him BT isn’t the company that supplies my phone or internet. We had a bit of a chat about if BT even is the main telecoms company in the country, then he just ended the call.BTUK8 yearsFor the past week, I’ve been getting nonstop calls from a recorded message warning that my internet will be cut off in a day because of some issue with my IP possibly being hacked. It’s really annoying.8 yearsI received a call from a woman with an Asian accent claiming to be from BT, informing me that there was an issue with my internet connection. I wasn't keen on chatting, so I politely disengaged and ended the call. Then just a couple of days after, I got another call that was eerily similar. I decided to reach out to my internet provider for peace of mind, and they confirmed that everything's running smoothly on their end. Quite dodgy, if you ask me!BT8 yearsGot a call from a guy named Oliver, sounded Asian, said he was with BT Openreach. He told me my IP had gone public and folks could see my bank and shopping details. I asked him for a direct BT Openreach number to check he was legit, but he just gave me the regular BT customer service line. I just hung up after that.OliverBT OpenreachBT8 yearsGot a call from a guy claiming to be with BT. I told him I was going to report him, and he just started cursing at me! Really rude. The number was 0271591155.BT8 yearsI just got a call and there was so much noise in the background, reminded me of one of those call centre things. So I ended up hanging up straight away.8 yearsGot a call from a guy with an Indian accent saying he was from BT and asking for my info. Felt a bit dodgy to me.8 yearsGot a call showing up as “International” on my landline. Bit frustrated I’m so out of the loop with this sort of thing! Some bloke named Max claimed he was from BT’s tech team. I just chuckled and said, “Sure you are,” but then he ended the call pretty quick. The background noise sounded like a bunch of dodgy folks hanging about. A.InternationalMaxBT8 yearsI got a call earlier from a woman with an Asian accent saying she was from BT and started asking me for my IP address. Didn’t trust it at all, so I ended the call straight away.BT8 yearsGot a bloke on the line saying he was from BT, telling me my internet IP had switched to a public one and they could sort it out. I told him I wasn’t with BT, but he just said it made no difference. I said I was gonna block his number. Couple hours later, he rings again but this time from another number. Blocked that one as well.BT8 yearsThe caller said they were from BT, but you could hear loads of noise like a busy call centre which seemed off. Felt like it might have been some kind of automated message, so I just ended the call.BT8 yearsHad a call from a woman with an Asian accent telling me there was something wrong with my IP address. I was a bit confused, then she passed me to a man, also Asian, who told me to keep my internet on and wait for a call back in about 10 minutes to explain the issue. They said they were from B.T., which I don’t use at all. I ended up unplugging everything, left it alone for a few hours, and when I turned it back on, everything worked fine. Definitely felt like a scam. Won’t be falling for that again.BT8 yearsThis number rang me twice today, the 29th of June - once around half past nine in the morning and then again at midday. They said they were from BT. I hung up straight away on the first call, but the second time, they ended the call instead. Oddly, the first call appeared as an international number. Watch out for this one!BT8 yearsToday I got two calls from this number saying they were from BT, telling me my IP had switched from private to public. I asked a load of questions and they passed me up to someone senior. That person told me to check for a third-party app on my laptop. I wasn’t having any of it, got a bit annoyed, and they just hung up. Honestly, don’t fall for this scam!BT8 yearsThis bloke spoke with an English accent and said his name was Dean Baker. I told him my name was Princess Anne. He replied, “She passed away last year, didn’t she?” I reckon her mum would be quite surprised! He claimed he was from BT Openreach, but nah, I’m not buying it!Dean BakerAnneBT Openreach8 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with BT Openreach, second time in a month that I've had this. Just ended the call straight away.BT Openreach8 yearsI encountered an Asian gentleman who was particularly smooth, claiming to be associated with B.T. while I was experiencing issues with my internet. He was incredibly convincing and nearly had me fooled. However, as soon as he realised that I don't engage in online banking, he abruptly ended the conversation. It was a rather narrow escape, to say the least!B. T8 yearsthis bloke had an odd accent and claimed he was from bt, saying there was a problem with my internet. he said my ip was being used by strangers and he wanted to cut it off for safety. i told him i'd had a call like this before and it was all a scam. he ended up swearing and just hung up on me.BT8 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from BT internet support, said I needed to check my IP address. I told them I’d only watched videos about phone scams before. They hesitated for a bit, then finally just hung up after a minute or so.8 yearsgot a ring from this number today. some bloke with an asian accent claimed he was calling from bt outreach or something like that. started asking me loads about my internet. i only just moved in here, said something like “moo” just to mess with him! never agree to anything with these calls, not even your name. honestly, just pretend to be a cow or something, drives them nuts.BT10 yearsI tried to pick up but the call ended before I could even say hello, number wasn't familiar.10 yearsi got a call from a company saying they were dual energy, but something felt off so i just ended the call.10 yearsI received a call from someone claiming to be David, who was supposedly representing BGas. It felt very much like a scam as he was trying to pry details about my account. Please, for your own safety, do not divulge any personal information! I reached out to British Gas directly, and they confirmed that it wasn’t their representative on the line. Stay vigilant, folks!DavidBGasBritish Gas10 yearsI got a call from someone pretending to be David, claiming to be from British Gas, saying there was some 'problem' with our account. It was pretty obvious it was a scam. I rang up British Gas myself to check and they told me they hadn't contacted me at all, confirming it was indeed a fraud attempt. They warned me to stay alert and never share personal details with callers like that. Definitely don’t hand over your info to these fraudsters.DavidBritish Gas10 yearsGot a call out of the blue from Eon claiming my meter reading didn’t line up with my postcode and account number or something like that. I told them they must have all the details already, but they kept pushing anyway. Honestly, why bother with all this hassle? Next time they ring, I’ll be prepared for it.Eon10 yearsI just got a call from a number showing as 2222929, and the person claimed they were from Opus. Anyone else had this? Feels a bit sketchy to me.Opus10 yearsGot a call from a bloke with an Indian accent claiming to be from our 'electricity provider'. When I asked which one, he said Eon. Then he started saying they were having trouble matching the postcode to the address, which sounded a bit dodgy to me. He asked for some details from our supplier account, so I just ended the call. We've had loads of calls like this before. The last time though, I kept them waiting on hold for about 20 minutes while I pretended to look for the info. Felt good knowing I wasted their time and hung up while they were still just sitting there.Eon10 yearsJust got a call from a man and a woman, sounded Asian, claiming to be from Scottish Power. They only had part of my meter number though. Does anyone know where I can report these fake calls?Scottish Power10 yearsGot a call from a guy with an Asian accent claiming to be from Eon. He said they couldn’t link our meter reading with our account number and wanted details from an old bill due to some tech problems. He did know our address and postcode, which was a bit worrying. He was quite insistent. Told him to ring back later, but I’m pretty sure it wasn’t legit.Eon10 yearsI've been receiving calls from individuals claiming to be representatives of EON, but I highly doubt their legitimacy. They request information about my meter and account, and then proceed to get in touch with EON to check for any credit balance on my account. It’s worrying, as they’re trying to divert any potential credit directly into their own accounts. Best to stay cautious!EON10 yearsGot a call from a woman called Sandra, she had an Indian accent and claimed to be from “the electric meter company.” Yeah, right, I wasn’t falling for that one.Sandra10 yearsi got a call from some bloke with an asian accent, sounded like he was working in one of those call centres. he said he was from british gas and wanted to speak to our accounts dept. when i asked him what for, he just hung up straight away. seems dodgy to me, i don’t think it was legit.British GasSubmit Your Own Report (271591155)
