Said they were from o2 and they were upgrading SIM cards Sent a text with a code which they asked me to read out. O2 would never ask for code to be read out. You would have to input code. They rang 3 times

Called me 3 times back to back and said they were from virgin media. Started talking about my SIM card and how it would stop working within 24 hours and checking I was the account holder etc. when I asked a question I was transferred through to a “manager” who asked me to confirm my email address and some other details (which I didn’t do). I asked him to repeat where he was calling from and he said O2
They were from sky and iam due a discount. Then straight in to asking me email address on the account. I gave them a different address then she said she will send me a code to access my account. I said sky has never done this before. Anyway how much of a discount will you give me 30% o that's nice I said. I said I know its a scam it just sounds fake and she hung up.
They told me they were from Sky and were asking how my service was - I don't have Sky so promptly hung up.
Sky apparently, asking if I had any problems. I don't have Sky, told them and they hung up
