Given comments it does appear to be scam/fraud call - phone rang 3 times and caller rang off before I wcould answer - as good a sign as any that it was fraudulent,

Called me on 26/01/24 at 17.46pm, claiming to be from Virgin Media. Woman spoke with Asian accent and was very hard to understand but offering me new price for my contract. I said "email me because I can't understand a word you are saying and I'm sure its a scam!", then put phone down. They rang again tonight (29/01/24) at 19.07pm but I've blocked the number. Exeter

VM employee who was offering a new deal. Asked for my address. I told them that they rang me and I would not give it. He asked me why nd I said you are a scammer! They have rang 3 times since and they have hung up the phone on all 3 calls.

I've received a few calls from this number. Unsure it is true Virgin Media with poorly trained telemarketer employees or a scam/fraud. That bad. Since, I have a contract with Virgin Media which cannot modified yet, I have challenged the caller without giving information about me... they didn't have the faintest about my contract. They wanted me give them some detailed info about me to access my contract! Sounded and acted like a scam. Unfortunately, callers had Indian accents which is not helpful as there are so many scams with Asian 'employees'. I told callers that I would verify their number and would call Virgin Media myself to see if I am entitled to a new deal.

Said they were from Virgin Media and could give me a better deal. When I asked them to forward their deal via email as I could not confirm their identity so would not divulge my personal information. They hung up 😄😄😄😄

Claimed to be from Virgin. Not the greatest line and the female caller had a foreign accent. Seems to know when my discounted account ran out and wanted to offer me a continued discount. Line cut off after they asked which mobile company I used.
