I've gone ahead and blocked this number numerous times, yet they seem to persist by calling me from different digits. I've made it clear on multiple occasions that I'm not interested, but the calls just keep coming. It’s absolutely infuriating!

They call me daily, often during the late hours, which is rather annoying. I made it clear about six weeks back that I have no interest, yet they persist with these calls. Quite infuriating! I've had enough and decided to block the number. 😡😡

I find it quite amusing that the same glowing review pops up on numerous platforms like this one, ha!

I’m receiving calls from u-switch constantly, despite clearly communicating that I’m not interested. They ring me daily, which is quite frustrating. I'm quite clued up about my energy options and don’t require anyone else's input on which provider suits me best. I've had enough and saved their number as "zzz" to block them entirely.

This is definitely a scam, so best to avoid responding.

I had a chat with a lady, though her name slips my mind. Usually, I steer clear of unsolicited calls, but I’m rather pleased I picked up this time as they managed to save me more than £200 on my electricity bill! Admittedly, I’m not overly keen on engaging with cold callers in the future, but I’ve saved this number and wouldn’t mind receiving a similar energy offer each year.

Hello! I received a call from this number not long ago. The gentleman on the other end was exceptionally professional and assisted me in lowering my bills significantly. I had no idea I was shelling out an extra £400! Big thumbs up for the service, everyone!

I had a chat with a lady whose name has slipped my mind. Typically, I steer clear of unsolicited calls, but this one turned out to be a pleasant surprise, as they managed to help me cut my electricity bill by more than £200! While I'm not keen on making a habit of conversing with cold callers, I've saved this number and wouldn’t mind hearing from them again about energy deals in future years.

A chap of Asian descent called me, introducing himself as Elliot, claiming to represent a firm that collaborates with U-switch regarding energy services. He insisted that I was a customer of Empower, which I quite clearly am not. Despite my disinterest, he kept on pushing, so I eventually had to hang up. Honestly, can we do something about these pesky nuisance calls once and for all? It's quite infuriating!

I got a voicemail from this number this evening, 29th November, around twenty minutes to eight. When I played the message, it was just awful - something rude along the lines of "f*** FACE". Honestly, what a lovely surprise! I had actually blocked this number several months back, fully expecting them to leave me alone, but it appears they’re resorting to even more aggressive tactics now. It's quite disturbing, really!

Picked up the phone to what sounded like a busy call centre buzzing away in the background. There was no actual conversation, just a lot of noise, so I decided to end the call.

I got a call from this number claiming to represent uSwitch for British Gas. I decided to cut the conversation short when they began probing for personal details like names and such. Quite dodgy, if you ask me!

Received a rather unexpected cold call. Ended up with no one on the line when I answered. Is it just me, or is this more of that automated dialling nonsense?

Could you kindly refrain from calling? It’s rather unappreciated, to be honest. Cheers!
