Received a call from this number. A woman was speaking rapidly and kept referring to me as "sir." She mentioned something about a potential reduction on our Sky subscription, claiming we hadn’t contacted Sky ourselves. I suspected this was regarding a service contract we didn’t actually possess. I certainly wasn't impressed when I pointed out that paying for something we didn’t have would end up costing us more rather than saving us money. She then asked for our bank details. When I pressed her for verification that she was indeed representing Sky, she started spouting the typical data protection spiel. At that point, I hung up.

I received a very similar call earlier today, and to my astonishment, they didn't even have our name right! What a shambles!

I received a rather unexpected call from these lot, claiming that because our HD box hasn’t produced any outgoing calls recently, we’re eligible for a reduced bill. Quite the coincidence, eh? They then asked for our MA card number. Naturally, we were a bit dubious and inquired about the necessity of sharing such information. The response was that it was to verify our identity. What a nerve! We made it clear that we suspected it was a scam and that they should be careful; they hung up in a flash! Quite amusing, really!

I received a call purporting to be from Sky, claiming they could lower our repair plan payments. However, when I asked them to confirm their identity, they became evasive and insisted on obtaining our bank details. Upon my further inquiry about who they were, the line mysteriously went silent. It's clearly a scam, so I urge everyone to steer clear and not share any of your personal information with them!

I can certainly say that the number mentioned seems to be part of a dodgy scam. It would be great if the fraud squad could get involved and put an end to these con artists. Or perhaps it was just straightforward work that needed doing? Either way, let's hope justice is served!

I received a call from a company claiming to be Sky Protect, only to find out that they’ve gone into liquidation back in June. Apparently, someone purchased the customer database and they’re now trying to get us to reactivate our direct debit payments. I've flagged this with Consumer Direct. What a scam!

Received a call from a young woman claiming to be from Sky, saying they were looking to lower my monthly direct debit to £12 a week since I hadn't requested a callout in over a year. She asked for my bank details to make the changes. However, when I rang the genuine Sky customer service, they assured me it was all a scam. Just a heads up - stay vigilant, folks, this is definitely a trick!

I received a call from this number while we were Sky customers, and as soon as our account was terminated, he abruptly disconnected the call. I strongly advise against sharing any details with this phone line.

Received a call claiming to be from Sky Protect, which was apparently liquidated back in June. It seems that someone acquired their customer data and is now attempting to get us to reinstate our direct debit payments. Just a heads-up, Sky Protect is still operational, so for heaven's sake, don’t divulge any of your banking details!

A chap called in wanting to have a word with our partner regarding an issue with my Sky service. We clarified that I actually use Virgin, and she seemed quite taken aback, suggesting she must have mixed things up. It felt a bit off, as it was clear she was making the call from her home rather than any kind of helpdesk. Just a word of advice - steer clear of sharing any personal details with this caller!

Received a call from a firm claiming to be Sky Protect, only to find out they’ve gone into liquidation last June. Apparently, someone bought their customer database and they’re now asking us to reinstate our direct debit. I’ve already reported this to Consumer Direct. What a scam!

Received a dubious call supposedly from Sky, claiming they could help us lower our bills. It all seemed a bit fishy, especially since they asked for my partner instead, even though my name is clearly on the account! My advice? Don't share any personal details with them!

I received a call from individuals claiming to represent Sky, insisting they needed my bank details to process a refund for a portion of my monthly subscription. Quite perplexing, considering I’ve always been a loyal customer!

My partner answered this call and then handed the phone over to me, saying it was Sky. I made it clear I didn’t subscribe to Sky, and the caller seemed to hear that quite well. Before I could even respond further, they abruptly hung up on me. Based on that and everything else, this feels incredibly suspicious!

I received a call this evening purporting to be from Sky Tele. However, since I haven’t made any outgoing calls in the past year, I found it rather odd when they mentioned we could slash our monthly bills. When these characters asked for our banking details, it raised a red flag for me. I’m not gullible; it absolutely smacked of a scam!

This evening, we received a call from a number claiming we were eligible for a discount on our monthly Sky subscription and asking for our banking details to finalise the process. When we queried them for our Sky account number, they insisted they didn't possess that information, saying it pertained to some insurance policy instead. We explained that we didn't even have insurance, and suddenly they were in quite a hurry to end the call. It all felt rather suspicious to us.

This number keeps ringing me incessantly, and every time I pick up, there's nothing but silence on the other end. It’s quite peculiar, really-they either seem to be savouring a deep breath or whistling into the receiver instead of having a proper conversation. They've even left some bizarre, breathy messages on my voicemail, which I've taken the liberty to record. The voice usually belongs to a bloke with a foreign accent, and it gives off the impression that he’s carrying some sort of unresolved issue. Quite the nuisance, I must say!

It appears that Sky Protection entered into liquidation back in June, and it seems that a new entity has acquired the client records. They're now attempting to set up our direct debits without proper authority. Just to clarify, Sky Protect is still operating, so please refrain from sharing any of your banking details with these individuals.
