Phone number ☎️ 08704141414 👆 is reported as a persistent scam call number often posing as representatives from Sky or Virgin Media, targeting mainly elderly or vulnerable people. Callers use convincing scripts about expiring viewing cards, new boxes, or special discounts but quickly attempt to extract sensitive bank details, date of birth, and account info. They frequently display poor English with accents, background noise suggesting call centres, and can be aggressive or insistent. Victims report no legitimate association with Sky/Virgin and warn others about repeated calls, false personal information knowledge, and refusal to provide proper verification. Many have flagged the number to official providers. Overall, this number is linked to fraudulent schemes aiming to steal banking details under the guise of utility company contact.

My mother in law, who’s 78, got a call from this number just yesterday. The caller pretended to be from Virgin Media and tricked her into giving her bank details, claiming it was to get her a “better” deal. Luckily, she decided to ring Virgin Media herself to check if it was legit, and that’s when she found out it was a scam. She quickly cancelled her card so no money was taken, but now she has to deal with sorting out a replacement card which is a real pain. This number has obviously been running for quite a while to pull off scams like this.

Someone rang up saying they were from Sky and wanted my 16-digit card number. When I told them they should already have it, he tried to tell me the first 4 digits but got them wrong. Earlier today, I had four calls from a bloke with an Indian accent, then a woman with a Filipino accent called, trying to sweet-talk me. It all felt pretty dodgy to me.

Got a call from someone claiming to be Sky, saying they were sending a new viewing card for free. They wanted to verify some details but never really gave clear answers. After I kept asking, they just ended the call. Seems like a scam to me. The number they called from was 08704141414.

Got a call earlier from a bloke claiming our sky card would expire soon. Immediately thought it was dodgy since Sky usually have local teams with proper English speakers. Total scam, no doubt.

Some bloke called claiming to be from Sky, saying pensioners get a year off or something and that a new viewing card would arrive soon. Then he started asking for my bank sort code but I told him I’ve been a Sky customer since 1999, so they should already have everything about me. The guy seemed clueless, so I said I don’t think you actually work there and hung up.

I recently received a call from this number regarding my Virgin card linked to my television. I played along with the conversation, even though I'm not a Virgin TV customer, which made it evident that it was a scam call. When I inquired whether the woman on the line, who had a distinct Indian accent amidst a cacophony of background noise, would allow me to record the chat-given that I had heard about scammers making such calls-she agreed. However, just as I attempted to hit a few buttons to start recording, my phone mysteriously died on me. Quite the coincidence, wouldn’t you say?

This number's been ringing me a lot. I picked up once last night and some bloke said he was from Sky, then just dropped the call. Sounded like there was a lot of noise in the background too. Then the same number buzzed me again at 11:05 pm, I answered and all I got was silence. Think I’ll just block it from now on.

Got a call from a bloke claiming to be with Virgin, asking for my bank info. Told him if he really worked there, he’d already have it. He said Virgin don’t save that stuff on their systems, and if I didn’t hand over my details, no discount for me. I just said fine and hung up. But he kept ringing me, called like five times more. I contacted Virgin to let them know, and they’ve promised to change my number for free if he tries again. Proper dodgy scam they’re cracking down on.

Got a call from a man with an Indian accent saying my Sky card was about to expire. He even rattled off my address, then postcode and birthday. Then he just hung up on me, sounded like he was chuckling. Feel really bad for anyone who falls for this rubbish. These scammers are awful.

Got a call from someone with an Asian accent saying they were phoning from Virgin. They said an engineer was coming round on Saturday to install a new box to upgrade my system and asked for my account info. Honestly, there should be some law to stop these dodgy scams trying to steal your details like this.

Got a call this morning around 9.30 from someone claiming to be Sky, saying they were sending a new viewing card. Felt fishy straight away when they asked for my bank info. Told them I didn’t have the details then and there. They said they’d call back at 4 in the afternoon. Later, I checked the number by calling 1471, and it came up as 08704141414 - definitely not a Sky number. When they rang back at 4, they were still pushing for my bank details. I told them, if they really worked for Sky, they’d already have my banking info.

I got a call from a guy with an Indian accent claiming he was with Sky. He asked for my date of birth to apparently send a new Sky viewing card, but I didn't give it to him. Be careful and don’t share your DOB - it’s clearly a scam. BT really should do something to stop these nasty scammers bothering us.

This was a total scam, very believable tho. They said there was a 20% discount on my Sky deal, which is just not true. Sky never lower their prices, always the opposite!

Got a call from someone claiming to be with Sky but he kept messing up my name. I told him there’s no one here by that name but he didn’t seem to care and kept going anyway. His English sounded really off and when I listened carefully in the background, it definitely sounded like a busy call centre. I just ended the call quickly.

Had a ring from this number earlier, some guy with a thick accent claiming my Virgin Media box was about to expire in a week. He got my name right but messed up on my address. He said he’d post me a new box but then asked for my DOB, which seemed fishy. Told him he didn’t need that info to send the box but he kept pushing. Total scam, stay clear!

This number rang me up earlier, saying my Sky viewing card was about to expire and they'd send a replacement. I agreed, but then the bloke asked for my date of birth, even though he already had my name and address. He claimed he needed it to give me further instructions. I wasn’t having it and told him no more details from me, suspecting it was dodgy. I said if he was genuinely from Sky, just post the card and instructions. He said fine. Now I’m just waiting to see what happens!

Just like a few others mentioned, I got a call from someone with an Indian accent saying they were sending me a new viewing card. They gave me a six digit code to put into the remote to activate it. They did have my address right but then asked for my birthday to confirm my identity. I said no and they quickly hung up. I rang Sky afterwards and they looked into my account and said there was no record of any activity that day and thought it was definitely a scam.

Got a call from this number about my viewing card needing renewal, they said a new one was on its way. The lady gave me a 6 digit code to activate it but then tried to get my bank info to connect the new card to my Sky account. I said I'd ring Sky myself, which I did, and they had no clue about it. Seemed like she was calling from a hectic call centre or something.

Got a call from a guy claiming to be with Sky, said they had a special deal for me since I’m retired. He seemed to know quite a bit about me, but then he wanted my bank details. I wasn’t having any of it and told him no, then he just hung up.

Got a voicemail from someone named Rosie at the Chargeback Group sayin my claim for £439 was approved and to ring her back on 02032901020. I looked up both numbers and figured it’s best not to risk calling that one. Too fishy for me.

Someone rang saying they were from Sky regarding our viewing card and wanted to update our details. They already knew we paid by direct debit but then asked which bank we used. I told them if they were truly from Sky, they wouldn’t be asking for that sort of info. After I said that, they just hung up. I got in touch with Sky myself and they confirmed it was a scam.

I got a call from someone claiming to be with Sky, saying they had to talk about a new, updated viewing card they were sending me. Then he started asking me all these so-called security questions to prove who I was. When he rang, the first thing he asked for was my birthday, which I only gave after hesitating. Next, he wanted me to confirm the sort code linked to my Sky account. I flat out refused and hung up straight away. I bet if I'd stayed on the line, he would've asked for my full account number next!
