2 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Aussie accent, she was pressing me to find out who owns the house. Felt a bit off, like she was fishing for info. Definitely seems a bit dodgy to me.Australia2 yearsLoads of calls coming through from some bloke named Chris, says he's an energy advisor from around here. He keeps interrupting and then passes you on to someone else to book a meeting. I've asked them to quit calling, but in under an hour, they rang me three times from numbers starting 0121 285 followed by different digits at the end. Told the guy to cut the harassment but he just ignores it. I've blocked all the numbers so far, though I’m pretty sure it won’t stop the calls.Chris2 yearsGot a call outta nowhere from a Birmingham number, no idea who it was!Birmingham2 yearsTotally a scam, watch out!2 yearsLoads of calls keep coming from numbers starting 0121 285, but the last four digits change each time. They’re always about energy savings, but even when I say I’m not interested in a nice way, they won’t stop talking till I hang up. Now I just block any 0121 285 calls straight away and cut the call off.2 yearsSo I blocked a number ending in 5183 after checking this website yesterday, and today I got a call from a very similar number ending 5174 - definitely the same scammers. I reckon it’s Scottish Power leaking my info after I switched my energy supplier. I’ve got a whole bunch of over 30 numbers like these that all have similar bad reviews on here. I’ve already put in a complaint to the Energy Ombudsman about it!Scottish PowerEnergy Ombudsman2 yearsGot a call from the same number just now, I never pick up calls from unknowns. I let it ring out and block straightaway. There should be stricter laws and harsher penalties for these annoying scam calls that just waste our time. Such rude people.2 years0121 28505174 and 0121 285 5309 are just a few of the loads of numbers they ring from! They claim they're your energy supplier for your area, but when I ask them what my postcode is, they just hang up on me! It's actually quite funny - surely lying like that is against the law?! They even say they've been told I'm the homeowner?? This lot need to be stopped and not allowed to cold call anyone anymore!!!2 yearsMy phone provider told me it was a scam, so I just went ahead and blocked the number.2 yearsI've picked up this call a few times now and it's always some guy called Chris, claiming to be an energy advisor for my postcode. But whenever I ask him which exact area he's talking about, he just dodges the question and keeps pushing his sales pitch. If I press him more, he just ends the call abruptly.Chris2 yearsThey say they are from the energy company and want you to apply for loft insulation grants. They keep switching their phone numbers, so you only pick up after blocking the previous one.2 yearsNobody answered. Don’t have this number saved anywhere.2 yearsGot scammed by some energy firm, so I’ve blocked that number plus a couple others that kept ringing with the same dodgy calls.2 yearsThis number has rung me three times now and I never get an answer when I pick up. I’d say just block it.2 yearsThis number keeps ringing me non-stop and I never pick up. Really frustrating.2 yearsThis bloke rang me claiming to be an energy advisor. There was loads of noise in the background, sounded like it came from a call centre or summink.2 yearsCalled mobile but got cut off, didn’t leave a message. Looked them up here. Blocked now.2 yearsGot a call from some energy scammer in the North West area, be careful everyone!North West2 years+44 121 285 5174 Beware, this is an energy rip-off call.2 yearsGot a call from some cold calling firm today, bit annoying tbh.2 yearsGot a call from some cold calling telemarketing firm.2 yearsI picked up my work phone and it gave me a warning that it was likely spam. I stayed quiet for a bit, then a bloke called Chris said he was an energy advisor for my area. I told him it was a work line and asked him not to call back. Definitely felt like a spam call.Chris2 yearsGot a call on my home phone, but I ignored it.2 yearsBlocked them straight away.2 yearsAnother telemarketer call, best to just ignore it.2 yearsThis 01212855174 number has called me a few times this week but I didn’t pick up as I didn’t know who it was.2 yearsPicked up the call but no one said anything.2 yearsGot a call from some energy firm, they were doing one of those cold calls trying to sell something.2 yearstotal scam, watch out!2 yearsPicked up 'cause it didn’t say it was spam and I used to live in Birmingham so didn’t think much of it. Some bloke was talking about energy and said it showed I was the owner of the house, then asked if that was right. I told him to mind his own business and hung up straight away!Birmingham2 yearsFrom what I heard on the first messages, they claim you can save energy. Total scam trying to gather your personal info.2 yearsdidnt pick up cos didnt reconise the number, they rang back the next day tho so i looked it up here gonna block it after seeing all these reviews2 yearsGot calls from some dodgy energy company, they kept ringing different numbers I have. I’m pretty much fluent in loads of languages, so I just switch it up every time I answer to waste their time and cash. Today I went with Cantonese, made them go quiet!Rogue2 yearsReceived calls from 121 285 5174 on 20/05/2024 and 121 285 5169 on 21/05/2024, didn’t pick up either time. No voicemail or anything. Looked them up here and found out it’s an energy company scam. The numbers are almost the same, so I think they’re connected. Going to block both now.2 yearsSomeone from the local energy company just called me.2 yearsThe caller was really polite and mentioned he was with an energy firm, but the moment I told him I was with a housing association, he just quickly said thanks for my time and ended the call.2 yearsI got a call from some bloke claiming he was responsible for my area’s energy supply. When I asked him to tell me which postcode he meant, he just ended the call straight away. Definitely sounded dodgy to me!2 yearsI didnt get the chance to pick up, but after looking through these comments, I’m for sure blocking the number now.2 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be my local energy advisor, but turns out he was ringing from Birmingham, like 200 miles away! Wish he was actually nearby, would have been nice to meet him face to face 😡Birmingham2 yearsGot another one of those dodgy scam calls today.2 yearsGot another ring from some energy consultant… straight to block.2 yearsGot another one of those dodgy sales calls again.2 yearsSo, just got a call from some "Chris," claiming to be my local energy advisor, but turns out he's actually calling from miles away, possibly even abroad. Was pushing some loft insulation scheme that felt like a total scam. Watch out, could be risky!Chris2 yearsBlocked this number 0121 85 5174, looks like a scam!2 yearsKept ringing but no one picked up, so I ended up blocking the number.2 yearsI got a call from this number but when I picked up, no one was there. I looked it up on this site and decided to block it. Cheers to whoever runs this, really helpful service! :)2 yearsI got a call from 01212855174 yesterday, but when I tried to ring back today, nobody picked up since I didn’t recognise the number.2 yearsSounds to me like this is some kind of AI just fishing for info. When you hit 2 to chat with a real person, it just loops you back to the same AI, not a real agent. Feels dodgy, like they’re trying to scam people by collecting data to sell on to other scammers. The AI claims it's an energy advice service. But if you search the number online, you’d expect plenty of legit results with a proper address and all that, right? Nope, nothing like that shows up. I’d say steer clear, don’t give out any info, and just hang up straight away.2 yearsGot a call from some life insurance firm, sounded like a scam. The bloke on the phone was Indian and wouldn’t back down even after I told him I’d recently signed up for a policy and wasn’t interested in switching. Then he insisted on talking to my husband, like I was clueless or something. I just ended the call right there.2 yearsThis number has rung me a few times now. Every time I block it since it’s marked risky, yet it somehow manages to get through again. Proper annoying!2 yearsSome dodgy energy company ringing me up, total scam!2 yearsHad a call from someone named Chris claiming to be from local energy services, but I just cut the call straight away.Chris2 yearsToday I got a call but didn’t pick up. I looked up the number on who-called-me.co.uk and now I’ve blocked them. Cheers for the heads up!UK2 yearsHe claimed to be from the local energy company. I tried asking which company exactly he was with but he just kept going on about insulation. I had to stop him and ask once more where he was calling from, and then he just hung up. Pretty sure it was a scam.2 yearsGot a call from this Indian bloke claiming he wasn’t actually selling anything, just trying to explain why some life insurance policies are rubbish. When I told him I didn’t want any life insurance because I already sorted my funeral plans, he just dived straight off the call. Strange one, really.2 yearsI just picked up enough to say it was a company call then told them I never deal with business stuff on my phone. Didn’t get involved beyond that.2 yearsReceived a rather intrusive call from a chap pushing home energy services. Definitely a cold call.2 yearsI called the number back and it came up as some kind of energy advice service. They offered me a choice to either stop getting their calls or to talk to someone directly.Submit Your Own Report (0121 285 5174)
