Potential BT scam in progress...... This is not a wind up.
My wife & I have had two random phone calls saying that they are from BT to say that as we are a loyal customer we are entitled to have our broadband at reduced price for one year on the bases we stay with them for a min of 12 months. They wanted us to confirm our post code & number and when quoted they said sorry but we have a fault with our computer.
We have since then rang BT to confirm that this promotion is in operation and they have not heard of such thing and said its a scam....
BT have advised us that for future reference, to ask for the persons name and I.D number and then ring BT to confirm such promotions. They have also reminded us not to hand out personal details such as Bank Details.
Just careful Folks because they are out there!
