01142387450 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01142387450 👆 is reported as a number frequently associated with calls pretending to be from British Gas, often pressuring for payment on allegedly outstanding bills. Many users indicate these calls come from outsourced call centres, sometimes overseas, with callers possessing personal details which raises suspicion about data security. Numerous reports suggest aggressive, persistent calling patterns, with some recipients never holding accounts yet repeatedly contacted. Official British Gas sources have both confirmed and denied connections to the number, adding to the confusion. Calls typically avoid providing clear identification and may disconnect when questioned. Overall, caution is advised; never share personal or bank details unsolicited, verify any claims directly with British Gas using official contact channels, and consider reporting suspicious activity to the authorities.

8 yearsI never pick up calls from numbers I don't recognise. Everyone I know saves their name, so if I see no name, I just leave it. If they wanna talk, they can keep ringing, it’s their time going down the drain, not mine.8 yearsI've found British Gas to be incredibly frustrating and rather pushy. I don’t even have an account with them, yet they bombard me with calls-six times a day, no less! Each time I explain that I'm not a customer, they press on, demanding personal information linked to their accounts and even trying to verify my bank details. The moment I mentioned involving the police, they conveniently hung up. It's quite the nuisance!British Gas8 yearsI received a couple of calls from him, and he seemed keen on confirming some security questions. Unfortunately, I wasn't in a position to provide that information.8 yearsThis number say its British Gas. Not sure if its the main call centre, but you might get called from here if your bill is overdue. Like some folks said, yeah they’re calling from India, just an outsourced place. I was actually quite happy they rang, they even sorted me out with a smart meter install appointment.British GasIndia8 yearsSaid they worked for British Gas but defo not them. The number showed up as Sheffield but they're not even from around there. Tried asking about the weather in India, just to see if they'd catch on.British GasSheffieldIndia9 yearsSo, my other half got a call from this number yesterday. Some bloke claiming to be from the gas company wanted to get in. He told him he must have dialled the wrong number as no one's home. Then today, I get a call from the same number, which I normally ignore when it’s unknown. I decided to look it up and found this site. Seems a bit suspect. It's weird they seem to have both our digits, makes me wonder where they're picking these numbers up from.9 yearsGot a call on my landline from someone saying they were with British Gas, wanted me to confirm my postcode but I never gave it. They then tried to force a payment and asked for my bank info, which I declined. I reported the incident to both the Police and the ICO.British GasICO9 yearsSounds to me like this could be British Gas, as they're saying i owe them money. I do owe them a bit, but they've got money owed to me as well, so not quite right. Also, the number is from Sheffield. When i was in India, a mate nearly got caught out by some bloke claiming he was from Sheffield too. Since i lived there for yonks, i asked the guy questions about Sheffield - he didnt know a thing! So my tip: if it's a landline, ask loads about the area to catch them out! Oh and BG, i'm definitely taking this up with the ombudsman. Where's my cash then?!British GasSheffieldIndia9 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be British Gas, total scammer.British Gas9 yearsHad a really odd call where the person wouldn’t say what it was about unless I gave them some info about a British Gas account. Definitely felt like a scam and was properly frustrating.British Gas9 yearsKept getting calls but they never left a message. When I finally picked up, they were asking for payment on my British Gas bill. I don’t owe them a penny, so to me it sounds like a scam.British Gas10 yearsThis number can't be British, as it doesn't seem to match the usual format you'd expect.10 yearsThis number keeps ringing me but I dont pick up. They also send texts telling me to ring British Gas about my account. Thing is, I dont have any account with BG!!! Seems like a scam to me.British GasBG10 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with British Gas but when I rang British Gas myself, they said they knew nothing about that number. They had my name and address though which is a bit unsettling.British Gas10 yearsSomeone rang up claiming to be from BG, asking for a person and saying their bill's overdue and if I could help pay it. Seems off to me, I doubt BG would handle it like that. Feels a bit dodgy if you ask me.British Gas10 yearsGot a call from some bloke who couldn’t really get his words out, asking for my partner (we both share the account) and then me. Pretty concerning since they seemed to have access to our British Gas info - they knew our details and that we’d fallen behind on payments (due to being away). I initially marked it as unknown, but now I’m thinking someone might actually be tricked into paying up, so yeah, this call felt quite risky to me.British Gas10 yearsThey knew the account numbers by name which was a bit dodgy. Seemed fishy to me. I ended the call as soon as I asked why they were calling - we’d actually paid our bill 3 days earlier, so no reason for this. Looks like someone’s got hold of BG’s account data - there's a serious leak somewhere!10 yearsI had a call from a bloke who was really hard to understand, asking first for my partner (we're both named on the account) and then for me. It was a bit unsettling since they seemed to have info from our British Gas account - they knew we hadn’t paid the bill yet because we were away on holiday. I marked it as unknown at first, but on second thought, I reckon someone might easily get talked into making a payment to them. So yeah, I'd say this was a pretty dodgy call.British Gas10 yearsAs soon as I picked up, the moment the automated voice kicked in, the caller hung up on me.10 yearsI got in touch with British Gas and they told me the call didn’t come from their side. Sounds like a scammer to me and defo pretty risky.British Gas10 yearsThis could either be British Gas or some scammer pretending to be them. I told British Gas to stop calling me, and they assured me they took my number off their list. Still, I keep getting calls from 01142 307450 claiming to be British Gas. I'm not sure if British Gas forgot to remove me or if it’s just a fake. Whichever it is, I never respond to questions from cold callers anyway.British Gas10 yearsReceived a phone call claiming to be from British Gas, insisting they needed to pass through some security checks. Then, just like that, the line went dead. Seemed rather dodgy to me, especially since it wasn’t the typical number I recognise! Honestly felt like I was speaking to a scammer. My advice? Never share any personal information over the phone. Just tell them you'll get in touch later and ring the number on your latest bill instead!British Gas10 yearsIt appears to be British Gas ringing me up... although I'm suspecting it's more of a sales pitch than anything else. To be honest, it doesn't strike me as a particularly impressive one!British Gas10 yearsI didnt pick up as i didnt know the number. It keeps ringing though. After seeing everyones comments, the only thing that stands out is ive just switched from British Gas. Anyone else got calls like this after moving away from British Gas?British Gas10 yearsRings a couple of times a day, even on weekends. I’ve never picked up, you’d think they’d take the hint by now.10 yearsLooks to me like it’s British Gas. Funny thing is, I don’t even hold an account with them, nor do I intend to!British Gas11 yearsGot a call earlier today from someone saying they were from British Gas. The bloke on the line had an Indian accent, while before it was an Indian lady when I picked up. Didn't share any details and ended the call. Rang British Gas myself afterwards and the number wasn’t theirs.British Gas11 yearsGot a call from a woman saying she's from British Gas, so I rang British Gas myself and found out it wasn't their number at all.British Gas11 yearsthey called but didnt say anything or leave a message.11 yearsThey said they were from British Gas but it was obviously a scam. I got in touch with British Gas and they told me that number isn't theirs at all.British Gas11 yearsGot a call last evening, they knew my name but wouldn’t verify anything when I asked. Then this woman with an Indian accent said she was calling from British Gas. When I asked what she was selling, she just hung up right away. Pretty sure it’s nothing to do with British Gas at all.British Gas11 yearsi reckon these calls are just tryin to scam you outta cash, even tho i haven't picked up for any of them. they left this weird msg on my voicemail sayin: "we hung up cause it was an answerin machine, but if someone's there press any key now." never heard owt like that before. total scam if you ask me. i think they got my mobile too, but when they ring it’s always hidden number. obviously, i don’t pick up. this number is labelled "harassing," but honestly, these lot could be proper dangerous - specially to vulnerable folks claimin to be from British Gas.British Gas11 yearsThey keep calling me every Friday evening and all Saturday for the past three weeks. I told them I work at a bar and those are my hours, so they should ring during the week. I'm sure it's a scam, cos they couldn't even say how much I supposedly owe or when I last paid! Who actually calls at 8.30 on a Friday night?11 yearsJust got a call from British Gas trying to get money for a bill I already paid a couple months back!! What a joke!British Gas11 yearsI received a call from them inquiring about my postcode. When I pointed out that they already had that information, they abruptly ended the conversation and hung up on me without addressing any further concerns.12 yearsSaid they were from British Gas, trying to get me to pay a bill that I’ve already settled completely. 227British Gas12 yearsI’ve been inundated with calls, often three or four times daily! I’ve requested on five separate occasions for them to send me a proper invoice since I haven’t seen one yet, but still, nothing has arrived, and the incessant calls keep coming. Their approach has been rather aggressive, to say the least.12 yearsI decided to pop the number 0114 238 7450 into a Google search, and right at the top, I found this intriguing link: “Did we reach out to you? - British Gas.” Naturally, I clicked on it and entered the number in the designated field. It appears to be from them.
