"A man said he was from BT head office in London. He claimed that BT had a contract with the government to remove or replace phone lines and if we didn't act, we would lose the ability to make outgoing calls. He wouldn't provide his surname when I asked. He got rude and demanding, so I hung up on him."

"They said they were from Sky and wanted to give me a Β£40 discount on my monthly bill - I doubt that's true. It sounded like it came from an Indian call centre, very noisy, the guy couldn't speak English and when I mentioned I thought it was a scam, he told me to shut up. So I hung up."
