Phone number ☎️ 07860078902 👆 is reported as a suspicious number frequently contacting users about broadband or Openreach appointments. Many recipients had already confirmed their appointments directly with official providers yet received similar texts demanding confirmation with threats of cancellation fees. The number appears unregistered with known telecom companies and may be associated with a serious data breach, as personal appointment details seem compromised.

It is recommended to verify any communication by contacting your broadband provider directly and to report such instances to Openreach, BT, or the relevant providers to prevent potential fraud or misuse of personal information.
Reports on phone number 07860078902
5 monthsI already replied Y before I even saw this, as my BT repair is scheduled for tomorrow to fix a fault. Usually I'm super careful but I was at my mum's hospital bedside and didn’t bother checking the number properly. After reading this, it’s clear it's a scam.5 monthsGot a message from this number saying to confirm my Openreach appointment but I’d already done that with them before. Seriously no clue how these con artists got my info!5 monthsGot a message from Openreach about an appointment tomorrow, just like loads of others have said here. They texted me asking the same question too. Definitely feels like a scam to me.Openreach7 monthsReceived a text about confirming a broadband visit, asking me to reply Y or N. The thing is, I don’t have any appointment booked, and the number isn’t one I’d expect from Openreach or my broadband provider. Bit confusing!Openreach9 monthsGot a message saying my BT internet installation is set for tomorrow. Seems like the exact same text so many others have been getting.9 monthsGot a text about our phone line being set up the following day, so I had to double check the appointment with Y. They mentioned a pretty broad time slot, anywhere from 8 in the morning to 6 in the evening. Honestly, I really doubt anyone's going to turn up. We trusted the message since our internet was supposed to be activated that day. Still, no internet and no sign of any engineers so far.10 monthsLooks like this one’s a scam too, just like the others people mentioned.10 monthsI got a text asking me to reply about a fibre broadband install, warning me there’d be a ‘missed appointment’ charge. Thing is, I already had it all set up with Openreach. Seems like some info might’ve slipped between Openreach and TalkTalk somewhere along the line.OpenreachTalkTalk10 monthsI too received a text from this number this morning. It arrived around 11:15 and demanded that I confirm an appointment for the following day by 1 o’clock. If I failed to do so apparently I would be charged a cancelled appointment fee. Given I have confirmed this appointment probably about a dozen times (including once this morning) and hadcbeen in communication with BT this morning about this matter due to their poor communications this text made me absolutely incandescent with rage. I’ve asked BT for an immediate explanation. If it is not adequate, then I will be taking the matter up with the ombudsman.BT11 monthsGot the exact same message as others here. I answered with a Y since my install was scheduled for that date and time. I'm planning to report this to Openreach, feels like a security risk to me. Just hope it won’t cause any problems for me. Definitely going to look into it further.11 monthsGot a message saying “Hi *name removed* your broadband installation is scheduled for tomorrow between 8am and 1pm. To prevent any missed appointment charges, please reply by 1pm today: Y to confirm, C to cancel, R to reschedule or D to discuss.” Thing is, the number isn’t actually linked with EE or OpenReach. I’m reporting this to them as it’s dodgy they have my info and the message sounds like a legit broadband setup. Bit worried about how they got my details.EE11 monthsGot a text saying I had to confirm an appointment or get charged a cancellation fee. I then checked the number with Openreach just to be sure before replying. Went back to their website after and the number 07860078902 isn’t shown anywhere. Looks like I’ll just ignore it.Openreach11 monthsGot a call sayin my Broadband upgrade would happen tomorrow, and they wanted me to reply within 17 minutes. Luckily I didn't respond in time! I started to feel a bit iffy after thinking more about the message.12 monthsThis has happened to me too, so I’ve sent all the info over to BT and asked them to look into what seems like a GDPR violation.BT12 monthsThey kept pushing me to give an answer right then and there. I had already decided to switch our internet provider soon.1 yearLike many before me, I reckon if this is a scam, they must have pinched info from Openreach - that’s a huge data leak if true. I’ve already flagged it to both Openreach and BT. Feels pretty dodgy to me.OpenreachBT1 yearGot a text from these guys right after I got one from Openreach. It said something like, "Hey, your broadband installation is set for tomorrow between 8am and 1pm. To dodge any fees for missing the appointment, reply by 1pm today. Send Y to confirm, C to cancel, R to reschedule or D to talk." I went ahead and replied Y since I hadn't spotted the Openreach confirmation yet.Openreach1 yearI stupidly responded with 'Y' as I was busy at the time. I'm not sure what this has opened me up to.1 yearGot a text asking me to confirm about a broadband appointment just after Openreach had been round. Seemed a bit dodgy to me, just like what others have said. Definitely felt suspicious.Openreach1 yearI guess I'm in the same boat as others. Got an appointment booked with Openreach for tomorrow morning. Was just about to grab some lunch when this number popped up with a text. Bit odd since I'd already confirmed a couple of times before. I replied with a "Y" but it was after the cut-off time. Fingers crossed it doesn’t cause any hassle for me - I’m usually super cautious with these things!1 yearJust like loads of others have said, I thought it was Openreach too since I'd already got an appointment confirmed by them. When I phoned BT, they told me no, they hadn’t sent that message and said there's no charge for missed appointments anyway. They took down the number to look into it. I've blocked and reported the caller as well.BT1 yearLike a few others here, I’m waiting on an Openreach tech tomorrow and got a call from this number asking me to confirm with a Y. I've already confirmed the appointment not just once but twice. What’s the point of this call then? Feels a bit odd.1 yearI’m waiting for Openreach to finish my Sky broadband install tomorrow, but today I suddenly got a text asking me to confirm the appointment. The message said I had to reply with a word or risk a fine. I just replied with “Y” to say it’s fine to come. Strange thing is, I’m not sure how they even knew about the appointment in the first place.Openreach1 yearDefinitely a scam, they keep trying to catch you out.1 yearA few messages had come through from my usual provider, but this one was from a different number and the message looked a bit off. Luckily, I checked here first and ended up deleting it, so cheers for that!1 yearHad a call asking me to confirm a broadband appointment, sounded a bit iffy. I replied like they asked but still haven’t got any confirmation back, makes me wonder if it's legit or some kind of scam.Submit Your Own Report (07860 078902)
