5 yearsGot a call from a bloke called Ron saying he’s with SSE, telling me about some new cheaper gas rates. He gave me this number, 08000270071, to ring if I wanted to switch to the cheaper deal. Seems a bit too good to be true, but thought I’d share.RonSSE5 yearsKept ringing me claiming to be with EDF. They said I had to update my tariff well before it ended, like 240 days in advance, or else my fixed deal would be cancelled and prices shot up right away. Proper annoying and really unpleasant tactics.EDF5 yearsI got a call off someone called Michelle who said she was with Utility Savers, telling me my renewal window was about to shut.MichelleUtility Savers5 yearsGot calls all day from someone named James or Michael, saying they were from different energy providers. Kept pushing me to switch to outrageously expensive electricity deals, saying I had just 30 minutes to decide. I had to block the number like 8 or 9 times in one day. Honestly, this feels like proper harassment to me!JamesMichael5 yearsGot a call from an energy firm and the bloke was really unpleasant.5 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Scottish Power, sounded like a total scam.Scottish Power5 yearsThey called saying they were from Scottish Power about some "renewal" but no way was it real! Total scam!Scottish Power5 yearsI've had a few calls lately from folks claiming to be with Haven Power, saying they're the ones supplying our energy and that it's time to renew. It sounds dodgy to me, definitely a scam. They've kept ringing over the past week.Haven Power5 yearsGot a call from someone claiming they were with Opus energy, but it felt a bit dodgy, like a scam. Definitely not legit.Opus Energy6 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be British Gas, harrassing me and saying I only had two hours left to renew my contract. Proper pressure tactics!British Gas6 yearsAwful situation - they kept ringing non stop and just ignored everything we tried to say. Really aggressive and annoying, they even ended up blocking our work phone, which stressed out the whole team loads!!!6 yearsI’ve been getting nonstop calls from Utility Savers and some guys named Jason and Paul, who say they’re from SSE, 0345 052 0000 - but I reckon it’s actually EON or something like that. Both of them use the same pushy sales pitch. When they ask if I’m okay with them proceeding, I say no way. I want to check that they’re legit before making any decisions. Told my workmates to just tell them to shove off, I’m well fed up with it. I’ll keep an eye on the prices after Monday but there's no chance I’m dealing with either of those lot.Utility SaversJasonPaulSSEEON7 yearsSaid they were from British Gas... what more is there to add?British Gas7 yearsI got a call from these lot pretending to be British Gas, telling me my gas contract was ending and that they'd cut me off! They're really aggressive and definitely not from British Gas at all, just some brokers trying to cash in by signing you up to new deals. Honestly, you’ll get a nicer price if you just deal straight with British Gas yourself. Watch out!British Gas7 yearsThey were pretty pushy with their sales tactics, but I did manage to get a good cheap deal in the end. Sam helped me out loads, checking prices from a few different providers and then sorting me the best offer. I switched over because my old supplier wanted too much. Overall, I’m fairly pleased with how it’s gone so far.Sam8 yearsGot a couple calls from Utility Savers, was a bit iffy at first. But I ended up with some fairly decent rates that weren’t too shabby. Overall, I’m pretty happy with the deal I got. Not a bad experience at all, I’d say.Utility Savers8 yearsI wish there was an option to mark them as untrustworthy. These chaps, Utilitly Savers - John and Sam, said they were linked to British Gas and had rates way lower than anyone else’s. Funny thing was, I started getting loads more calls from others with much pricier deals. I ringed my actual supplier and they told me I still have plenty of time left on my contract, unlike the false urgency they tried to put on me for the 'one day left'. After I firmly told them I was not changing providers, the calls luckily stopped, though I had to be quite blunt with them.JohnSamBritish Gas8 yearsHad almost the same trouble as the person who posted on 28/0/2018. I actually wrote a proper long explanation of everything that went down, but it was way too much for this site to handle. BG keep shifting the blame onto the broker (I reckon they’re based overseas, maybe India). Still, I’m not letting it drop - I’m reaching out to BG again, plus Ofgem, my local MP, and even some investigative journos at Watchdog and national papers. I’m retired and fancy a bit of a challenge, so I’m sticking with it!BGIndiaOfgemWatchdog8 yearsThey keep ringing up, asking for the serial numbers on our meters and details about properties that might not even belong to the business or the owners. Really annoying, pushy, and just a massive waste of time. They claim to be some sort of utility saving company or something.8 yearsWe keep getting calls asking for meter serial numbers and info about properties, some of which we never even owned. They’re so pushy and rude, taking up loads of our time. They say they're “utility savers” or something like that. Proper annoying.8 yearsgot calls nonstop from some guy called sam claiming he was with utility savers and working for british gas. was so pushy and kept ringing, really frustrating. when i got in touch with british gas, they said they had no idea who sam was and don’t use any ‘consultants’ like that. proper dodgy and nearly got me fooled. tried to complain to the ombudsman but turns out they’re not even registered, so no luck there. really annoyed about the whole thing.SamUtility SaversBritish Gas8 yearsSame story with me, all those other posts are right, they claim to be British Gas but it’s a load of rubbish. I got two different quotes from them in less than an hour which was a bit odd. Feels like they’re just fishing for my bank info to nick some dosh. Pretty sure they’re ringing from abroad. If they ring you, just end the call straight away!British GasUK8 yearsGot a call saying they were from British Gas, telling me my contract was ending soon - which it definitely isn’t! They went on with all sorts of nonsense over the phone. I rang British Gas directly and they said they’d heard of the company but had nothing to do with them and that these calls shouldn't be happening. Called the guy back on 01163180704 and told him exactly what British Gas had said. Told him to stop pestering people who’ve got better things to do than listen to that drivel. He just hung up on me. Bit odd, right?British GasSam9 yearsLike many others have said, it's really frustrating having them call me like four times every single day. I told them nicely to stop bothering me, but I wouldn’t be shocked if they ring back again before the hour’s up.9 yearsI run a pretty busy garage and these lot are driving me nuts. They start off calling once, pretending to be from British Gas, then keep coming back every couple of hours but with different company names each time. It’s so frustrating and honestly, they make me feel really pissed off and down whenever the phone rings. They just won’t quit and it’s been going on for months now. Feels like there’s no way to shake them off, and I’m seriously thinking about changing my number, which I’ve had for over a decade, just to get some peace.British Gas9 yearsCalled me loads of times and was really unpleasant. Honestly, best to steer clear if you can!9 yearsKeep getting calls from some outfit called Utility Savers. They phoned me twice within a couple of hours, but when I mentioned it, they said I must be mistaken. They kept repeating back stuff I had already told them the first time, just trying to get me to change my energy provider. The first time they said they were from British Gas, the second time they said they were working for British Gas. Whether they're legit energy brokers or not, I don’t feel right about how they handled it - just left me feeling a bit suspicious.Utility SaversBritish Gas9 yearsThey claim to be Dual Energy, which happens to be my current electricity provider, but they’re definitely not. If you don’t pick up, they’ll ring you like 6 times back to back. I decided not to answer!Dual Energy9 yearsI got a call from a utility comparison firm recently. Be careful, they ask for info and then switch your provider without telling you at all. Don’t share anything with them!Submit Your Own Report (0116 318 0704)
