Reports on phone number 02840243004
1 yearToday this number rang me but didn’t leave any voicemail. My BT caller ID showed it as ‘Nuisance?’ and after reading the replies here, it looks like that’s right. I’ve blocked the number now.1 yearThey didn’t leave any voicemail. Looks like a VoIP number, so I’m guessing it’s just another scam call.1 yearI got a call from this number, and when I said just “Hello” without giving my name or anything, there was total silence on the other end. No answer at all. I ended up hanging up and blocking it straight away. Looks like just another dodgy scammer trying their luck.2 yearsThis number has been relentlessly calling both my wife and me for the past month, and we haven’t answered yet. Honestly, the sheer number of calls during the same period has made me feel quite uneasy.5 yearsThis number has rung me quite a few times and I have no clue who it is. Seems like it might be some kind of scam to me.5 yearsI tried putting in loads of numbers on this site expecting to find out who called me but not a single one was recognised. Feels like just another pointless website that’s only here to push ads and nothing else. Really disappointing.5 yearsPretty certain it was some call centre from India. The person claimed to be with BT Openreach about my broadband but I just ended the call straight away.BT Openreach5 yearsThis call felt dodgy, probably some scam about broadband.5 yearsA man with a really bad accent claimed he was from BT Open Reach. The moment my mum said she’d hand the phone over to me, he just ended the call.BT Open Reach5 yearsThe caller had a really thick accent and was claiming there was an issue with my landline.5 yearsI got a call from a woman with a South Asian accent who seemed kind of anxious. She mentioned she was calling from BT and wanted to talk to me. I told her it wasn’t a good time and then just hung up.BT5 yearsI got a call from a number saying it was about a DWP emergency. The guy on the other end said he was from BT Openreach, but he sounded really off and had a thick accent that was hard to understand. As soon as I mentioned it was a government office he was ringing, he just ended the call. Bit dodgy if you ask me.DWP5 yearsSaid they were from British Telecom or Openreach, but when I asked them straight, they just cut me off!OpenreachBritish Telecom5 yearsThey kept ringing every 15 minutes, but when I picked up, no one was there. If it went to voicemail, they never left a word. So annoying!5 yearsLately, we've had loads of phone calls from unknown numbers, and this was one of them. Whenever a number looks unfamiliar, we put the answerphone on. Of course, no one ever leaves a message. But since the answerphone picks up, they still get hit with a connection charge. We never bother calling them back because it might just redirect to an expensive premium line. Honestly, some folks will try any trick instead of doing proper work.5 yearsClassic BT scam call, nothing but a load of rubbish.BT5 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Asian accent claiming to be from BT. I don't have BT myself, so I was pretty sure it was a scam.BT5 yearsGot a call from someone claiming they were from BT Openreach about my broadband. Felt like it was a scam to me.BT Openreach5 yearsFor the past three weeks or so, I've been getting calls where the phone rings but as soon as I pick up, there's no one there. I'm guessing it's just some kind of scam, seeing as it's happened so often lately!5 yearsReceived a call from someone purporting to be from BT, inquiring about our broadband speed. The chap had quite a strong accent and spoke at a breakneck pace, making it tough to catch everything he was saying. He seemed particularly interested in our internet speed, so I mentioned it was around 25 megabits per second. This clearly didn't satisfy him, as he insisted we boot up our computer for a speed test. When we explained we simply couldn't at that moment due to other commitments, his tone noticeably shifted and he pressed for details on what we were occupied with. My advice? Never, under any circumstances, should you allow access to your computer during an unsolicited call.BT5 yearsLoads of folks keep ringing me up about dodgy internet speeds or saying there's some malware detected on my computer. It's all a load of nonsense if you ask me. I usually just humour them, pretending my PC's crawling and agreeing about the slow internet. One time I managed to keep a caller chatting for a whopping 38 minutes! I kept losing my internet connection, so I kept telling them that I really needed to fix it properly. Eventually, I said I had to go because Emmerdale was just starting on the telly. Funny thing is, they never called back after that - bit of a shame, really!Emmerdale5 yearsSome guy with a heavy accent claimed he was from BT Openreach, but I told him there was no way he was genuine and that he was just trying to con me. He hung up right after that.BT OpenreachBT5 yearsI got a call from someone pretending to be with BT OpenReach, said they needed to fix my internet speed problems.

Each time, it goes to my voicemail but they never leave any message. Quite annoying really!5 yearsThis number rang me again but when I answered, it was just silence with some odd noises in the background. The caller said they were from BT Openreach and had an Asian accent. Definitely feels like a scam to me.BT Openreach5 yearsI got a really nasty bloke on the phone who wouldn’t take my number off their list, kept saying it was owned by BT. What a pain, BT seriously need to get their act together and fix this mess.BT5 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be BT Openreach - complete con!BT Openreach5 yearsGot a call from a number I didn’t recognise, so I looked it up here before calling back.5 yearsSome bloke with a foreign accent rang up saying he was from BT Openreach, mentioning my internet speed had issues. I said I was a BT engineer myself and he just cut the call. Total scammer.BT OpenreachBT5 yearsGot hit with another scam call. Can't believe how often these happen.5 yearsGot a call claiming to be from Open Reach about my internet connection. The caller had a South Asian or Indian accent, sounded like it was from a call centre. Totally a scam, no doubt about it.Open Reach5 yearsTotal scam, don’t trust it!!5 yearsHe claimed he was from BT Openreach, but when I asked him to say who my internet provider was, he bailed straight away. Total scammer and honestly pretty daft too.BT5 yearsGot a call from BT Openreach claiming there's an issue with my internet, but everything's working fine on my end.

I ended up just hanging up straight away.Simon MarkBT5 yearsGot a call from a guy who said his name was John and sounded like he was from Africa, saying he worked for BT OpenReach. I just hung up straight away. Seems like one of those dodgy scams to me, especially since I don’t have any BT services at all.JohnBT OpenReachBT5 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Asian accent claiming to be from BT Openreach, saying she needed to test my broadband speed.BT Openreach5 yearsThey keep calling non stop, so frustrating!5 yearsGot a call from some foreign lady claiming to be from BT Openreach. She was saying something about needing to check my broadband speed. Felt a bit off to me.BT Openreach5 yearsNO SOUND ON THE LINE5 yearsReceived a call on my home phone that went silent, claiming to be from Northern Ireland. Quite strange, really!Northern Ireland5 yearsGot a mute call on my home phone, no idea who it was.5 yearsGot a call from a lady with an Asian accent, saying there was a problem with my broadband. You could hear loads of people talking in the background. I thought it sounded fishy, maybe a scam. Then after about 5 minutes, they rang again but said nothing at all. Suspicious to say the least.5 yearsGot a call from a bloke with a funny accent saying he was from BT Openreach, telling me there was something wrong with my broadband - though I don’t even have BT for my internet. He went on about BT Openreach being the "biggest broadband provider ever". I told him I wasn’t interested and then he just cut me off halfway through what I was saying.BT OpenreachBT5 yearsThey keep ringing but I never pick up, so I just end the call. Such a hassle!5 yearsI’ve gotten a couple of calls from them pretending to be BT Openreach. The voices sounded Indian, both a bloke and a woman.

I’ve just put this number straight on the block list.5 yearsGot a call from some Indian guy trying to talk me into BB speeds or something, sounded like he didn’t really know much about BB at all. Seemed like a dodgy scam to me.India5 yearsTried reaching out to a landline in Leicestershire, but there was no response.Leicestershire5 yearsReceived a call from someone alleging to represent BT Open Reach, and he attempted to validate his identity by reciting my BT phone number. He mentioned the usual ADSL speeds I ought to expect but then bizarrely asked me to access my router to implement some adjustments on his behalf for improved performance. Honestly, the conversation dragged on for ages and I soon lost interest in disputing his claims.5 yearsJust a heads up: I received a dubious message claiming my internet speed is sluggish, and it suggested I connect to a browser and enter WWW.INTER.NET.COM for assistance. This is definitely a scam! Please refrain from following their instructions, as it could grant them unauthorised access to your device. Stay safe!WWW. INTER. NET. COM5 yearsGot a call from 02840243004 saying it was BT Openreach, said there was some problem with my broadband connection. I asked a few questions and they just hung up. Yeah right, BT Openreach my foot!BT Openreach5 yearsLuckily, I wasn't home when this number rang. The area code looks a lot like a London one, but it turns out it's actually from Northern Ireland. I'm definitely going to watch out for this code in future.Northern IrelandLondon5 yearsAvoid number 02840 243004, it's a scam!5 yearsSounded like a total scam, kept pestering me nonstop.5 yearsThe moment I picked up the phone, they just cut off. I reckon they’re targeting older folks with this kind of call. Next time, I'm gonna use an old person’s voice and give them a taste of their own medicine.5 yearsSomebody called claiming to be from BT, saying my internet speed was slow and asked me to run a speed test. I said I wasn’t a BT customer and everything was fine on my end.

I asked him to give me my account info since if he was legit BT, he’d have that on his screen. He said he was recording the call, I told him I wasn’t bothered and ended the call. That was actually the second time they rang me today. Pretty clear to me it’s a scam.BT5 yearsGot a call from a lady, sounded Asian, saying she's from BT Open Reach. Seems dodgy to me! Watch out everyone, these scammers are everywhere!BT Openreach5 yearsMy BT phone stopped the call from coming through so I didn’t answer it.BT5 yearsI keep getting these irritating calls all the time. The moment my answerphone kicks in, they just drop the call straight away.5 yearsTotally a scam, just a waste of time.5 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Indian accent claiming she was from BT Openreach, saying she needed to check my internet speeds. I told her straight away we weren’t interested and I didn’t believe her. After looking through the comments, looks like it’s a common BT scam, so better safe than sorry and I just ended the call.BT OpenreachBT5 yearsGot a call from 02840243004, some foreign lady pretending to be from BT Openreach about my internet. I just chuckled, told her I wasn’t interested and ended the call. Then I reported it through BT’s website and also to the fraud crime folks like they recommended.BT OpenreachBT5 yearsGot a call from a guy who sounded Asian, started off saying something about my Amazon Prime account. I told him I don’t have one and never use Amazon. After a few tries of him pushing me to follow what he said, he suddenly changed his story. He claimed someone from Maine in the States had set up a Prime account using my name, had my bank info, and was making orders. He then said I needed an Amazon secure ID code, which he provided, telling me he’d walk me through fixing it on my phone or computer.
