They just keep switching numbers, it's all dodgy stuff. Every time I answer, it's a different one from the lot. Definitely some kind of scam going on here.

Got a call from a lady saying she was with the "Energy Department." When I asked which company she represented, all she did was keep saying the same thing over and over. Honestly, how daft can they be?

Got a call from a man claiming he was from National Grid. He was trying to set up an appointment to change our meter and threatened to cut off the electricity if we didn’t agree. I told him to stop messing around and that it’s rubbish. Then he just ended the call.

Got a call from some newbie scammer trying to sell me a £15 TV channel package. Total rubbish!

They ring my shop about energy stuff like 3 or 4 times every day. The call always kicks off with the same "how are you?" chat. I ended up hanging up.

Got calls from 01173185178 loads of times, a proper annoying bloke on the line. Said he was from the National Grid about some meter swap and dodgy readings but I’m sure he wasn’t even in the UK. After a while I just hung up. Then he kept ringing me back like 20+ times. Total nightmare.

Just got a call from a blocked number about my energy bill, sounded like someone from Bristol. Anyone else getting these?

I got a call at my job, and when we said no thanks, they got really rude. They also tried to switch our meters without permission. Proper annoying!

They’re really sneaky about how they try to get clients, definitely steer clear!

Got a call from someone saying they were with National Grid and wanted to set up a time to come and swap our meters. They seemed to already have a fair bit of info about us even before I gave anything away. They emailed me to confirm the appointment but they spelt my name wrong and the email was full of spelling errors and odd grammar. Definitely felt off, so I doubt it was really National Grid.

Got a call from some dodgy "utility company" trying to cut my electric bill down to £35 a month. Honestly, what planet is he living on? He wanted me to send a snap of my meter and my last bill on WhatsApp. I told him I'd prefer to use email instead, and he gave me a Hotmail address - sooooo convincing, right?! Made me laugh!

This number rang me up about some TV channel stuff, but I ended the call pretty quick, maybe 15 seconds or so. With all these scams online nowadays, it’s tough to believe any random caller.

He started off by saying my name, not really surprising since our company details are easily found online. Then he told me who he was - speaking with a thick accent, claiming to be from the "Overcharging Department". Who in their right mind would announce themselves like that? Oh wait, obviously scammy lowlifes. I had a bit of fun mocking him, and I reckon he found it funny too. Hung up and put him on the block list straight away.

My work phone rang twice back to back but I didn't pick up. We don't deal with anyone in Bristol so it felt fishy. They also didn’t leave any voicemail which made me think it was probably a scam.

Got a ring from some place in India, didn't bother, figured it was just another scam trying to catch me out. Hung up straight away.

Got a call from someone saying they were British Gas. They told me my tariff was going down and then started asking for loads of info that they really should have had already. It felt fishy, so I just ended the call.
