3 yearsGot loads of calls with no one speaking on the other end. Really annoying!3 yearsI just had a chat with James and managed to knock £4,000 off my British Gas Renewal bill. While we were still talking, he emailed me the confirmation and even gave me his personal number if I have any questions. Definitely my new favourite contact!JamesBritish Gas5 yearsHad a call from a guy named James who said he was a consultant. Really friendly and seemed genuine. I’m already tied into a deal with British Gas, but he mentioned his prices were lower, so I might try him out in the future. He didn’t ask for any details just to give a quote, which was nice. He said he works as a broker and made it clear who he was from the start.JamesBritish Gas5 yearsI had a chat with a chap named James. He worked wonders in slashing the renewal quote from British Gas and managed to secure us a deal that their own team couldn't match. What’s even more brilliant is that we now have his direct contact number, so we can reach out to him whenever we need assistance. As a charity, he even helped us reclaim VAT from as far back as four years that British Gas had levied on us. We're absolutely thrilled with his service and are already spreading the word to other charities and non-profit groups to take advantage of what he offers.JamesBritish GasVAT5 yearsAt first, they called saying they were from British Gas, which seemed a bit dodgy. Every time I ended the call, they’d ring me again straightaway. It was quite annoying, honestly.British Gas6 yearsIt’s astounding that in the midst of a global health crisis, blokes like this continue to ring up, hounding me for details about some electricity provider. I told him quite curtly to take my number off his list and hung up, but lo and behold, he just kept ringing back repeatedly! These incessant cold callers have got to come to a halt immediately. I always thought it was against the law to make unsolicited calls without prior approval.6 yearsApparently Total Gas keeps ringing me around 3 to 4 times every week. I'm fed up and thinking of reporting them to the ICO.Total GasICO6 yearsHonestly, this place is a nightmare, getting about 3 or 4 calls every week from them. I’m seriously thinking of reporting it to the ICO because it’s just ridiculous. Avoid at all costs!ICO8 yearsI recently had a chat with a chap who helped me sort out my renewal with British Gas. He managed to slash the renewal price quite a bit, and even British Gas themselves couldn’t come close to matching his offer. Absolutely would recommend!British Gas8 yearsThis outfit claims to represent British Gas, but I can assure you, they’re not the real McCoy.British GasMcCoy8 yearsThey claim to be British Gas, but they definitely aren't. Don't be fooled by what they say.British Gas8 yearsReceived a call from someone purporting to be from British Gas regarding business accounts. After following up with British Gas directly, they informed me that the number in question is not associated with them at all. Quite suspicious, isn’t it?British Gas8 yearsGot a voicemail from British Gas sayin my account needs review. Pretty annoying.British Gas8 yearsI had a run-in with some blokes claiming to be from British Gas, and let me tell you, they were fibbing through their teeth. When I challenged one of them, he didn’t take it well at all! So, I decided to ring British Gas directly, and guess what? They assured me they hadn’t reached out to me at all. What a cheek!British Gas8 yearsI received a call from a chap claiming to be James Price, saying he represents British Gas and was offering me some kind of retention deal on prices. I've got to say, this seems rather dodgy, as I've checked, and British Gas doesn’t operate in that manner. Definitely a scam.James PriceBritish Gas9 yearsA woman reached out to me about my energy billing. She was exceptionally detailed and very professional, managing to secure a better deal on my current account. Honestly, I can’t fault the experience at all - it was completely straightforward and stress-free. I’ll definitely be turning to her for future assistance. Much appreciated!9 yearsI received a call earlier from this number, claiming to be from a gentleman named James. He insisted he was representing British Gas, but when I pressed him for clarity on where he was actually calling from, he faltered. He provided me with incorrect details regarding my account. When I pointed out that the information seemed off and suggested he verify my proper account details, he replied rather dismissively with, 'we don't exist in a flawless world; mistakes happen among my colleagues.' I instructed him to revisit my account details and ring me once he had the correct information. In response to my query, he accused me of being impolite and promptly ended the call. When I attempted to ring the number back, it simply cut out. It’s quite evident that British Gas wouldn't conduct themselves in such a manner.JamesBritish Gas9 yearsI was discussing a contract for my gas supply business. Quite a pleasant fellow, I must say!9 yearsLast week, I received a call from a number I didn’t recognise. They rang me again and ended up saving me a whopping £405 a year on my British Gas gas bill. Definitely seemed like a gamble worth taking!9 yearsI received a call from someone claiming to represent British Gas about my contract renewal. However, after reaching out to British Gas independently, it has become clear that the caller is not affiliated with them in any way. It’s worth noting that British Gas will never initiate contact about renewing your contract; it’s your responsibility to respond to their written communications. If you don’t get in touch, they’ll automatically move you onto a higher tariff. So, be wary of unsolicited calls!British GasSubmit Your Own Report (0116 298 3212)
