Expert Opinion

Reports of calls from this number reveal a blend of legitimate broadband engineer notifications and potential scams mimicking telecom providers. One instance describes a Plusnet engineer visit, backed by official confirmations, suggesting authenticity in that context. Yet others flag suspicious texts from BT or Openreach, including unprompted confirmation requests that could lead to phishing. Always verify caller details through official channels like the provider's app or website before sharing info. Block and report dubious contacts to your network operator or Action Fraud to safeguard privacy. Cross-check appointment details independently to dodge impersonation traps.
