On 02/05/2026, I submitted a report identifying the caller as BT with commentary about 'curfew' times. This morning I noted blocked calls from this company timed at 04.06 and, so far, a further call at 06.05. This is surely harrassment. I have contacted the Information Commissioners Office via TPS to demand something is done about this dreadful company.

It is BT stating sms options regarding timing of receipt of text messages. Press 1 apparently to change 'curfew' times. The caller is persistent having called me at least six times each of the last few days. The calls are now blocked but still show up in the log.

This is NOT A SCAM. I am being pestered by calls from this number - as late as 10:28pm. It is Openreach being totally unprofessional calling people at unreasonable hours, asking them to go to a weblink (from a landline!!! not possible) to confirm an appointment to install Digital Voice. The recorded message doesn't start to play until about 30-40 seconds, so people think it's a scam. I would love to call their chairman at a late hour and see how they like it !!!

Didn't answer it, they didn't leave a message. If it was real, BT would have left a message. Another pain in the neck!

Just rang - automated male voiced message claiming to be the BT sms system; apparently I have an SMS from vodafone which seems suss 'press 1 to listen' etc I've had calls from the sms system before and it was a female voice which just read out them so assume this is a scam to divert me to a chargable number

Caller: BT messaging system (apparently)
