12 yearsI’ve been pestered by this number relentlessly, claiming to be from Microsoft. It’s becoming quite tiresome! Would it be possible to put an end to these incessant calls?Microsoft12 yearsI picked up the phone when this number rang and was greeted by some bloke cackling away before he abruptly ended the call. It reminds me of Billy Connolly's witty take on these characters-he calls them a "subtle touch artist." Quite the cheeky behaviour, if you ask me!Billy Connolly12 yearsToday, at precisely 10:35 am, I had a call from this number. I tend to ignore calls unless the number is familiar or I'm anticipating a certain call around that time. As someone with a disability, it often takes me a bit longer to reach the phone. If this turns out to be a bothersome call, it certainly needs to be addressed.12 yearsReceived a call today from an individual with an Asian accent, who introduced himself as Kevin and claimed to represent Microsoft Windows. I swiftly informed him that I'm aware Microsoft doesn't engage in unsolicited calls and promptly terminated the conversation. Interestingly, I had a similar encounter with these callers about a month back. I've discovered that by hanging up myself, it seems to deter them from reaching out again for a decent stretch of time.KevinMicrosoft12 yearsI picked up the phone, only to be met with an eerie silence, followed by a woman's voice chillingly uttering "goodbye." This was quite unsettling, as I’ve heard of such tactics being employed to gauge if a home is empty before a break-in occurs.12 yearsEarlier today, I received a phone call here in North Wales. The person on the other end had an accent that sounded Indian and asserted that they were from Microsoft, discussing some sort of "package." I couldn't shake off my apprehension, so I swiftly ended the call.North WalesMicrosoft12 yearsIt's quite unsettling that they had my name and address! Really makes one anxious, doesn't it?12 yearsI received a phone call today from this number, and it was an Indian bloke claiming to be from Microsoft. When I pressed him about his location, he abruptly hung up on me! Honestly, these chaps are complete novices, and they don't even bother concealing their numbers!Microsoft12 yearsI've been inundated with 11 calls from the number 0019894665588. Each time, there's no one on the line. It lasts about 30 seconds, and I can hear a woman saying 'goodbye' at the end. Quite peculiar, to say the least!12 yearsToday, I received a rather suspect phone call from this number, with the caller claiming he was ready to hand me £128, provided I hopped over to my computer to fill out some form. When I inquired about his location, he insisted he was calling from London. However, I wasn’t quite convinced, as the background noise sounded more like busy streets in India with all the honking. I told him if he genuinely had money to give, he ought to send it via cheque instead. Honestly, I find this sort of call quite alarming, as it's concerning to think that some folks might actually fall for these types of scams.LondonIndia12 yearsExercise caution! I received a call today from someone claiming to arrange a refund for a warranty we never purchased. They had a rather convincing tone. Their approach involved sorting out the refund via Western Union, but at that juncture, they requested my banking information. I politely refused. Instead, I suggested they send a cheque, as I wasn't comfortable sharing my financial details over the phone. They assured me that another colleague would reach out, but unsurprisingly, I'm still waiting for that call to come through.Western Union12 yearsHad yet another call today from someone named David, who was banging on about giving me a refund. I couldn't resist; I asked him how he had slept last night, and he casually replied that it was perfectly fine. Odd sort of chap, really!David12 yearsI've had a relentless nuisance ringing my home phone, annoyingly an Indian chap masquerading as an employee of Microsoft, trying to gain access to my computer. Initially, his sister reached out and informed me I needed to speak to their technical department, only to then hand me off to him without any proper transfer or returning to a switchboard. What utter nonsense!Microsoft12 yearsOn the 24th of April, 2014, I got a call claiming I was entitled to a refund from Microsoft and they inquired if my computer was switched on. I decided to string them along just to frustrate them a bit, after which they abruptly ended the call. Just a heads up to everyone to be cautious!Microsoft12 yearsI received a rather dubious phone call at 10:10 AM on the 24th of April from a chap with a heavy Indian accent. He claimed to represent Microsoft, stating that my computer had issues and that I was entitled to a refund. When I inquired if he could simply mail me a cheque, he abruptly informed me that this wasn't an option. Frustrated, I told him where to shove it and ended the conversation.MicrosoftSubmit Your Own Report (0989 466 5588)
