AI Summary
Based on 17 community reports
Calls from this Wakefield number, carried by Voxbone SA, are overwhelmingly reported as spam, with users describing automated or robocalls. Many reports indicate the callers impersonate BT (British Telecom), claiming your broadband, landline, or mobile contract is about to expire or needs renewal. Some callers become insistent when questioned, and one report details a caller claiming to be from EE and then charging significantly more than agreed. If you receive a call from this number, it's best to hang up and block it, as these are likely scam attempts to gain personal information or money.

Claimed that my bt contract was about to expire even though that is not until oct 2027. Continued to persist on trying to get me to agree for them to move forward on what ever it was they were trying to do. Didn't like it when I told them I was reporting their number to bt and call checker.
Automated/robocall
saying your broadband landline mobile and internet is about to run out Total Scam
Caller said they were from BT (couldn't catch the company name because of their thick Asian accent) and mentioned I needed to renew my contract, offering to put me through to a manager to talk about it. When I asked them to confirm my BT account number, the scam fell apart! I hung up with some choice words!!!
Called the business number saying they were from BT and that you had to renew your phone contract
Just finished a call with them, the guy said he was from bt (I know bt don’t do outreach calls) when I told him I knew he was a scammer he began to deny that he worked for bt. Very strange, he hung up on me lol
Said they were BT
Polite Asian man, said his name was Thomas, couldn't catch the company name. "It's about your BT contract". I told "Thomas" that it's been over 10 years since I had a BT contract. He didn't ask for my name, just if I was the manager. Sounds like a scam..
asked to talk to the manager, when told which company we were she ended the call

It does not prove that the registered owner of the number made the call or text. Community reports describe individual experiences and are not official confirmation of a scam.
