2 yearsI reckon these are really pushy scammers, probably linked to BT and EE mobile phone accounts or something similar.BTEE2 yearsGot a random call in the middle of the day which I didn’t pick up. From what I’m seeing in other comments, looks like it might be some kind of scam. Since I don’t have solid proof, I just labelled it as Harassing for now. Just a heads up, be careful if you do pick up!7 yearsSaw a couple of missed calls from that number, but I’m not bothering to call back.7 yearsGot a call earlier from a guy claiming he'd contacted BT regarding wifi troubles with my phone line, said he'd ring back later today. But I never called BT about any wifi problems, so I'm not gonna answer if he calls again. Planning to block the number altogether.BTWiFi7 yearsBe aware of the variations in the phone number. 0800 028 5085 is genuinely from BT. However, 0800 0028 5085 is definitely not a call from BT. It appears they've deceptively inserted an extra '0' to make it seem as though the call is from BT’s familiar number. This tactic is not exclusive to phone numbers; they employ similar tricks with email addresses and websites. By subtly adding an additional letter or character, they trick individuals into believing they are dealing with the legitimate company rather than a scam operation.BT7 yearsBe careful to spot the difference in the phone numbers. 0800 028 5085 is genuinely from BT, but 0800 0028 5085 isn’t. What they’ve done is sneak in an extra zero to make it seem like the call’s from BT’s official line. You see the same trick with emails and websites, where scammers add a letter or character so it looks legit but it’s not, just a clever fake trying to fool you.8 yearsthis keeps happening to me, i keep getting calls with the exact same message and now when i answer, no ones there on the other side.9 yearsI answered the phone and said hello a few times but got no response at all. Instead, I could hear a man’s voice in the background, like some office noise with people talking on phones. This call left me feeling uneasy, so I’ve flagged it as harassment.9 yearsI missed a call from this number while I was out and about. Feeling a bit wary, I turned to this helpful website and ended up deciding to block it entirely. Cheers for the assistance!10 yearsGot a call from 080000285085, apparently from BT, about some email problems they said will be sorted in 2 or 3 days. They didn't ask for any details or personal info or anything. Think this is alright or should I be wary?BT10 yearsI had a call from this number on the 12th of May, 2016, purporting to be from BT. It raised my eyebrows when they requested personal information, so I decided to terminate the call.BT11 yearsIt’s from British Telecom.British Telecom11 yearsReceived a dodgy phone call asserting that I had an unpaid bill with BT. The woman on the line had quite a pronounced accent, reminiscent of Spanish rather than Indian. She insisted that I settle it via debit card right then and there. When I pressed her for verification of her identity as a BT representative, she resorted to making threatening remarks about late payment fees. I kept urging her to authenticate her connection to BT, and eventually, after hurling more threats my way, she decided to hang up.BT11 yearsWe’ve been inundated with calls from this number, asserting they represent BT, insisting there’s an unpaid bill on our account. However, after receiving clarification from BT, it’s clear that this claim is baseless. I strongly suspect that this number is involved in some sort of scam.BT11 yearsWe've been getting constant calls at our studio from this dodgy number claiming there's an unpaid BT bill looming over us. However, BT has reassured us that everything's up to date and there's nothing we owe. To make matters worse, we even got a suspicious letter stating we had an outstanding balance, which simply isn't true.BT11 yearsGot calls daily from someone saying they're with BT, telling me there's an unpaid bill and that they're gonna cut off our phone line. We checked directly with BT, and they said there’s nothing owed. It’s definitely a scam, watch out!BT11 yearsThe caller claimed to be from BT and said they needed to speak urgently to the account holder. The last person they mentioned was named Geoff. It’s gotta be a scam, especially since the account is supposed to close in just two days. They couldn’t even mark it as a special case on their end. Pretty dodgy if you ask me.BTGeoff11 yearsReceived a call demanding £350 for an overdue BT account. Naturally, I reached out to BT for clarity, only to find out that I had no outstanding payments at all!BT11 yearsCould anyone shed light on the identity of this caller?12 yearsI keep getting calls from this number but when I try to pick up, no one is there.12 yearsThey ring me up daily without fail.Submit Your Own Report (80000285085)
