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 yearsHad a chat with a bloke named James. He managed to slash the renewal price from British Gas way lower than what you'd get going straight to the supplier. Even better, he's given us his direct number and is always ready to help out. Since we're a charity, he also reclaimed VAT from the last four years that British Gas wrongly billed us. We're now suggesting his services to loads of other charities and non-profits we know.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 yearsI can't believe that even during a worldwide pandemic, these daft people still ring up asking for details about some bloody electricity company. I told the bloke to take my number off his list and ended the call, but he carried on ringing nonstop. These cold callers really need to quit it immediately. I was under the impression cold calls without permission were supposed to be against the law.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 got in touch with a bloke who helped sort out my British Gas renewal. He dropped the renewal price quite a bit, and honestly, even British Gas couldn't match the deal he gave me. Definitely worth it, would suggest giving him a go.British Gas8 yearsThey keep saying they’re from British Gas, but trust me, they’re not.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 yearsSomeone pretending to be from British Gas rang me earlier, but I knew it was fake. When I challenged them, they didn’t take it well. I ended up ringing British Gas directly to check, and they told me they hadn’t tried to contact me at all.British Gas9 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 yearsI got a call from a lady about my energy bill. She was really professional and detailed, managed to find me a good saving on my current plan. No fuss at all, super simple to deal with. I’ll definitely be sticking with her from now on. Cheers!9 yearsThis number rang me and the caller said his name was James, claiming to be from British Gas. I kept asking him to verify where exactly he was calling from. He gave me some account info but none of it matched my details. When I asked him to double-check things on his end, he said something like ‘we don’t live in a perfect world, mistakes happen’. I told him to call me back when he actually had the right info. After that, he said I was being rude and just ended the call. Tried ringing back the same number and it just cut off. That’s definitely not how British Gas operates.JamesBritish Gas9 yearsI was discussing a contract for my gas supply business. Quite a pleasant fellow, I must say!9 yearsLast week, I got a call from this firm, the number was unfamiliar to me. They rang back again and managed to cut £405 off my yearly British Gas gas bill. Definitely gave it a shot and was glad I did!10 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were with British Gas about my contract renewal. But after ringing British Gas myself, I found out it wasn’t actually them. Plus, British Gas doesn’t ever ring you to remind about renewals - they expect you to get back to them by mail. If you don’t, they just keep you on the pricier tariff until you reach out. So be wary of anyone claiming otherwise!British GasSubmit Your Own Report (0116 298 3212)
