Iffy txts from unknown mobile number

Coffee+guy — Sun, 31 Aug 2025 16:58:33 GMT

Basically a txt claiming my home is elligable for full fibre I've looked online and I've read the number has been associated with scam calls so I'm curious if anyone else has had similar

you'd think sky would have a verification option on sky app to verify a number that sends a txt or calls to you

@Coffee+guy Best place to check if you're on the Openreach Network is here https://www.broadbandchecker.btwholesale.com/#/ADSL/AddressHome

If you take a screen shot and post it here be careful not to include and cabinet or adress data the community can advise further.
