Getting phone calls from an 0121 phone number saying we have issues with out broadband, and making some connections. To my knowledge we don't, I feel its a scam but you can't speak to virgin to find a simple answer, I've had two in two days from the same number. Could anyone re assure me that indeed this is a scam ? Please. Thank you

You are correct in assuming that these are scam calls.
VM don't make tech support calls out of the blue in this way.
Best approach is just to hang up on them without speaking to them when they call again.
