This Number ID - XT - claiming to be from Virgin Media.
Most worryingly they had access to very recent changes to my account and were wanting to secure the possibility of reducing my monthly costs even further.
The alarming thing is that my mobile is not a virgin Media number however is my alternative contact number,therefore I can only suspect that the Virgin Media employees located in India are passing on customer account data and issuing details out to be scammed.
This started a couple of days ago and is coupled with +447458333222. In looking for information on the voicemail notification, I inadvertently opened the voicemail and got a far-east recorded voice, which may have made things worse. Blocking the number resulted in no more calls but I get a fresh voicemail every time I switch on the phone. Virgin Mobile have no answer other than permanently disabling voicemail or changing the number, both of which would be inconvenient.
Please STOP. I never asked for this and don’t want to be called at least twice a day. Someone somewhere must be desperate for a job, but I am not desperate to talk to them. They should be jailed along with the other nuisance callers......
I am 79 years old and sick of this number ringing me twice a day every day I do not answer cos I do not have that number in my phone, my grandaughter was here today when it rang she blocked it for me as I did not know how to block numbers, hope that's it

I got a call 2 weeks ago claiming to be Virgin Mobile offering a phone upgrade. I was initially interested, having an older Virgin Mobile phone as they said there would be no up-front fee several times during the call. At the end of the call they asked for my Debit Card details to collect a £40 up-front fee, at which point I suspected a possible scam and I hung up saying I was not interested. They have made about 30 times unanswered in the last 2 weeks.
A real nuisance, I get called by this number daily and despite blocking the number, it still goes to voice mail. This is not even my personal phone, it's
my work phone!! How do I get it to stop?
Will not stop calling mobile !!!
have had three calls from this number in the last three days.did not answer .it is a pity that the caller has nothing better to do.i am sure they understand f--k off in whatever language they speak as it is universal.
Stop the number calling, it's driving is mad
Keeps calling mutiple times each day. I never answer No's I don't know but I've had enough so today I looked up the number, discovered its a scam and have now blocked it.
I should have known better but as my contract is coming to it's end I didn't think and gave him address and postcode then twigged it was a scam should I be worried they have my address?
I keep getting calls from this number.I never answer them.It doesnt stress me.I always assume all unknown numbers are a scam anyway.
Virgin Scam/harassment call
I am an existing Virgin customer for Internet, TV and land line.
Have had 2 calls on my land line each day from this number for the last 3 days.
Their methods vary ..
If you answer, sometimes they hang up straight away without speaking.
If you don't pickup and let the call go to answering machine, they stay on the line for 5 seconds then hang up without speaking.
They spoke to me on 2 occasions, gave me a 5 minute robotic script in broken English on how much money they could save me on my existing bill.
At the end of the "look at how much money we can save you" speech, I ask how much cheaper my monthly bill will be, they tell me it will increase as I will be getting more TV channels.
Unbelievable ..
I was thinking of removing the land line from my existing package as I never use it - this has confirmed that I need to remove Virgin Media and change provider instead.
