5 yearsGot a call from 01189783532 claiming to be from British Gas. It sounded dodgy to me. The bloke had an Indian accent and I barely caught what he was saying.

When I said I wasn’t interested, they just hung up straight away.British Gas6 yearssomeone rang saying they were from scottish power, which is supposedly our energy supplier. problem is, we haven’t had scottish power for over 4 years since they’re rubbish. the caller couldn’t even say the company name right, so it was obvious they weren’t legit.Scottish Power6 yearsi called them out for pretending to be opus energy and they got really rude about it, which was pretty annoying.Opus Energy6 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were from Opus and that they were providing me with energy.

We all know what that’s about.6 yearsThey rang my nan about her gas deal like 5 times, proper hassling her.6 yearsSomeone called saying they were from Total Gas and Power, but Peter’s accent was so unusual, I doubt that was his real name. They couldn’t answer anything about my contract and just ended the call when I asked too many questions. Pretty shady if you ask me.Total GasPeter6 yearsSo I got a call from this bloke and he started asking all sorts of dodgy stuff, like my personal phone number and even my Facebook info. Proper creepy behaviour!Facebook6 yearsscam alert - someone claimed to be from EDF trying to renew my business contract. I got wary when they used my middle name which I never share, but I guess they grabbed it from Companies House since it’s on the record. They started rattling off terms and conditions about stuff we hadn’t even talked about yet. I told them I’d call EDF myself when I was ready, and they just hung up. They were pretty pushy, kept calling nonstop until I finally answered. I’ve blocked the number now.EDFCompanies House6 yearsThis guy kept ringing me up asking for my private number, I just hung up on him. But he wasn’t having any of it and called me back loads of times.
