Nothing to add to comment from previous comment. These calls are all too frequent and despite subscribing to TPS continue to occur almost daily. Fed up with the constant harassment so I just terminate the calls.

Had a call today from a foreign caller said he was calling from BT Out reach and ask me to check the speed of my computer as there was a problem with BT Broadband. I told him my computer is turned off and I am about to go out, Goodbye.

Scam saying they are from bt. They are not. Get very aggressive when you won't play their game.

Missed this call as we were out, but I didn’t even know where Launceston was, so obviously yet another bunch of chancers on the make. Blocked. Wish BT would do something about this scum that upsets people’s lives!
