Phone number ☎️ 01218244924 👆 is reported as a persistent scam caller impersonating British Gas, often targeting boiler service or warranty details. Numerous reports highlight suspicious behaviour, such as silence at the start, refusal to disclose costs, and immediate hang-ups when challenged or an answerphone activates. Callers frequently request bank or sort code details under false pretences. The calls are typically from foreign-accented individuals and have been identified as part of the well-known boiler scam.

Someone phoned me claiming to be with British Gas, offering a special on an annual boiler check. I asked them how much it was going to cost, but they refused to give me a price. As soon as I told them I was already a British Gas customer, they just hung up on me.

I got a phone call on 11th September 2023 from someone saying they were from British Gas, offering a supposedly improved deal on my boiler servicing. They mentioned my name and asked me to confirm it, which I refused to do. Next, they claimed the boiler was at my home and wanted to know if that was correct. I told them I wasn’t interested and ended the call straight away. I didn’t trust the bloke for a second. No idea what might have come next if I’d kept talking, but it felt quite suspicious to me.

Got a call from someone saying they were from British Gas about a kitchen device supposedly in our home. When I asked for more info, they said they couldn't tell me the brand or type due to "customer security reasons." Kept pushing for my direct debit info, which I don’t even have set up. Totally felt like a scam!

Got a call from a guy with a strong Indian accent claiming to be from British Gas. He was insisting my boiler cover was about to renew and kept pushing for my bank’s short code. I played along for a bit, then told him there’s no way I’d hand over that info and asked if he’s ever tried conning his own family. He got all flustered and hung up straight away.

I missed answering the call, bit of a shame really, since I don’t have any gas service. Would’ve been a right waste of the caller’s time!

Be warned - got a call from someone claiming to be British Gas sayin’ my boiler cover was cancelled and they wanted to sell me a “better” one. They asked for my sort code and bank details, which I refused to give. I rang British Gas myself and they said everything was fine with my policy. Plus, they confirmed they never randomly call customers and their phone numbers always start with 0333. Seems like a dodgy scam to me!

Totally a scam. Some bloke claimed he was calling from Manchester using the number 01 202 707408, but as soon as he ended the call, I found out the call actually came from the number listed here. He wanted my bank sort-code to "verify" my details for a boiler care policy with British Gas... he kept saying he wouldn’t ask for any personal info. When I kept asking him to give me his bank sort-code and the bank he was with so I could double-check, he just disconnected straight away. Honestly, no shock there.

Got a call from someone claiming to be with British Gas, asking about our boiler. They mentioned we supposedly had a service plan with them, which we don’t at all. Then they went on to say they partner with several companies that actually handle those contracts, rattling off a few names trying to hit on the one we deal with. Felt really sketchy to me, like a dodgy sales pitch or scam.
