Aggressive Broadband Push?
Summary — +442046242427
Expert Opinion
Picture this: your phone rings with an unfamiliar number, and the voice on the other end pushes a broadband deal that sounds too good to be true. Reports highlight persistent calls from this source, often masquerading as reps from BT or Sky to lure customers into switching providers. Callers come across as aggressive, shouting when challenged and ignoring requests to stop. One tale involves a rude chap insisting on line rental details, while another uncovers Virgin Media posing as Sky to poach subscribers—nearly costing one person early termination fees. These tactics scream telemarketing harassment, designed to pressure hasty decisions. Best move? Hang up immediately, block the number, and report to Ofcom or Action Fraud. Never share personal info or confirm details; verify offers directly with your provider. Stay vigilant to dodge these pesky broadband bandits.

No matter how often I block this line, calls keep coming in. The bloke who answered was utterly obnoxious when I picked up. He claimed affiliation with BT, but I mentioned I'm with Sky, prompting him to yell that I wasn't getting it – they provide Sky's line rental and I must disclose broadband users. As I attempted to respond, he bellowed he'd favour me by ditching the intermediary (Sky) for a direct BT deal. Refusing, he whined about wasting effort on savings I ignored. I said I was working and had to end it; he snapped thanks for squandering his time. I disconnected, then he rang again 🤣🤣🤣🤣.

Scam
Unwanted ring
Claimed affiliation with Sky, possessed all my personal data. Stated my agreement had lapsed and pitched a superior package at half the cost. Then inquired about upgrading to quicker, less expensive internet. Exposed as Virgin Media targeting Sky users. My deal actually ends in November, still active. Falling for it would've incurred exit fees. Accused them of deception and demanded no further contact. I'll choose my own provider without their ruse. They've used about 6 various lines, indicating a major effort to lure Sky clients.
