01246488919 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01246488919 👆 is reported as linked to scam activity involving fake debt claims primarily relating to water and energy companies. Victims have received letters and calls demanding payments for alleged arrears on accounts or properties they never owned or from utility providers they do not recognise. The company uses real utility logos and attempts to gain personal details through misleading messages and calls. Spelling errors, incorrect names, and suspicious demands for postcode segments are common red flags. Callers often use local area codes to appear credible but are remote. Users strongly advise against responding or calling back due to potential charges or fraud risk. Authorities and real companies should be contacted for verification if approached. Overall, vigilance and not engaging with this number is recommended.

Avoid this lot at all costs. I received a dodgy text claiming Southern Water had sent me a letter and asked me to click on a link to view it. They wanted my surname (even though they tried to spell my first name, which they got wrong) and the latter part of my postcode. Luckily, I thought to check reviews here before entering anything. I have no clue where they managed to get my info from, as I’m pretty careful about who I share it with. The only places I can think of might be Sky or itv.com, as I’ve only given details to them for competitions, apart from the usual utility providers.

Got a call claiming I owed money for electricity, but I never even had an account with that company and everything is paid up anyway. Definitely a scam trying to trick me.

Received a letter with this number on it and it turns out they’re pretending to be a debt collection agency for an energy firm. Definitely a scam.

We got a letter addressed to Eve or something close, but we weren’t even living at that address at the time. Don’t trust these scammers at all! They might try to hack into your bank accounts!

I just received a letter from this number, 01246 488919, claiming I owe £287.68 for water bills. It had a legit company logo too, found it on a UK search. Bit strange since I always pay via direct debit. Watch out, this could be a water bill scam!

You can get in touch with them through the following means: Shoot them an email at [email protected] or Drop a letter to: PO Box 678, Staveley, S43 9DF. I recently received a letter tagged with the number 01246 488919, demanding a payment of £550.86 for outstanding energy debts. However, I've got a final bill from my gas and electricity provider indicating that "this is your last bill, and you’re currently in credit. We’ll transfer X amount to your bank by 07/10/2022". The timeline they're referencing for these alleged charges is entirely off, so I've decided to disregard their correspondence and will be reaching out to my former energy provider to sort this situation out.

I was the one who rang them and gave all the right details but they wouldn’t discuss anything unless I confirmed the address from the letter. When I tried to say that’s not where I live, they just tried to shut me down. Proper scam, and so disrespectful!

Got a letter about some debt that supposedly comes from a legit company but I've never owed them a penny. The phone number on there actually charges you if you ring back, so my advice is don’t even bother calling!

I'm a bit iffy about this whole thing. I looked up uksearch online and came across the number 01246488924. When I rang them about a letter I got, and mentioned that the number on the letter, 01246 488919, was flagged as dodgy, the person I spoke to just went quiet! Feels like I should probably investigate a bit further before trusting anything.

Got a letter from UK Search at 01246 488919 claiming I owe Scottish Power nearly £6k lol. The thing is, the energy bills are never even under my name. Ha, scammers really think they can fool me? Not today! Just threw the letter in the bin and moved on, don’t stress about it!

Got a letter from a UK search company about a property I fixed up and sold ages ago, claiming I owe a water bill. I always settle my bills, so this seemed fishy. I threw the letter straight in the bin. Some details on it didn’t add up at all. Watch out, folks - looks like a scam. I’m pretty careful with my documents, so I know when something’s off. Stay safe!

Got a letter through the mail about owing money to some energy company called Octopus. Never come across them before, and the letter wasn’t even addressed to the usual bill payer in the house. Pretty weird situation.

I got a call from a number with the same area code as mine, which tricks you into thinking it’s someone local or familiar. Turns out, they were from a place a good couple of hundred miles away. They claimed it was about some funeral pre-planning stuff. I quickly ended the call. What shocked me was how the government seems to be allowing these unwanted calls now - this was the third one like it today alone, and before that, we’d only had like three in the last four months. Quite annoying!
