1 yearFor months now, this number keeps ringing our business nonstop, saying they're from British Gas Lite. They just won't take no for an answer and are super pushy. When I tell them they're probably a scam, they flat out deny it. I also mention that British Gas Lite never actually calls customers on the phone, as a way to save money, but they still won't back off. Feels like they're not allowed to hang up, because the call goes on and on. Proper annoying.British Gas Lite1 yearThis person said they were from British Gas Lite and asked for my meter reference number to check the reading. I told them they already have it and if they’re just calling to read the meter then they can hang up.British Gas Lite1 yearannoying spam calls, cant really tell what the scam is about tho. i just end up hanging up straight away.1 yearThis number has been ringing our office non-stop, supposedly from British Gas, but it’s definitely not them. Whenever we tell the caller to stop, right after we get another call from someone claiming to be their supervisor, insisting the first person is legit and has genuine reasons to call for British Gas. However, they never provide an account number or meter details they talk about. We reached out to British Gas directly with all the info and they confirmed it’s a scam.British Gas1 yearGot a call claiming to be from British Gas, asking for my email so they could send me a 6-digit code.
