Reports on phone number 01253978747
6 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were British Gas, trying to talk about a gas contract renewal for our old office location - but we moved over six years ago! If they really worked for British Gas, they’d know we still use their service at the new place, and the old office isn’t even a thing anymore. The guy said he’d remove us from their list, but then either him or someone else rang up not long after and repeated the whole spiel.British Gas6 yearsGot a call from a lady claiming to be with Opus Energy wanting to sort out my contract renewal. Told them to call me later, but surprise surprise, they never did.Opus Energy7 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be with Opus Energy, but I told them right away they weren’t who they said they were - definitely not them!Opus Energy7 yearsGot a call from 'Opus' Energy looking for the owner of a business that hasn't been here for 16 years and used to have this number. When I told them it wasn’t us, they just cut me off - pretty rude if you ask me!Opus ' Energy7 yearsThis number has been ringing me a lot lately. The first time I finally picked up, there was just silence on the other end. The next time it called, I didn’t even pick up because I never answer calls from numbers I don’t recognise. Then, only a couple of minutes later, it rang once more.7 yearsGot a phone call earlier today from someone who sounded Indian. They said they could help me find a job and even asked about how much I’m earning right now. I’ve got a call blocking system set up through my phone company to deal with these, but it didn’t do anything. Who are these people anyway, and why is it so hard to stop them from ringing me?7 yearsReceived a call today from them, claiming my contract was up for renewal, yet I was well aware it had already been sorted. The chap on the line confessed he was from a different company, so I decided to end the call right there. Not moments later, my phone rang again from the same number-this time, it was an irate lady threatening to terminate my supply. I told her to take a hike! These incessant calls plague me at the office all day, without fail. It’s about time someone put a stop to all this nonsense! xxx7 yearsIt was just one of those junk calls! I answered and all I could hear was a bunch of background noise like a call centre. I’m definitely putting them on the block list.8 yearsI've just had a rather dodgy call from someone claiming to represent an energy company. They insisted we weren't signed up with any supplier and urged me to register right away, all while mentioning we were supposedly on an inflated rate - something I'm already aware of, by the way. So, I mentioned I would reach out to our actual provider and gave her their name. At that point, she abruptly disconnected. But wouldn't you know it, just a couple of minutes later, she rang back from a withheld number, pretending to be from our supplier! It’s incredible how brazen some of these scammers are!8 yearsAbsolutely horrible experience. They claimed it was some kind of second-tier meter company we supposedly signed up with, which was why we were getting loads of calls from utilities. Thing is, we haven’t had any calls from utility firms at all! The caller was really aggressive and kept ringing back five times even after I told them to remove us from their list. When I asked to talk to the manager, the guy said he was the manager and still carried on. We’ve blocked their number now.8 yearsGot a phone call from a bloke who said there was an electric meter showing up on their system for me. He even knew my first name and that I was calling from a business. I told him I wasn’t sure why he was calling since I was aware of the meter already. He was pretty rude, telling me not to waste time and just get on with it. Then he asked who handles the bill payments, and after I answered, it wasn’t what he expected because he just hung up. Tried calling the number back afterwards but it was out of service.8 yearsAbsolutely disrespectful!8 yearsIt's Bes Utilities calling - do yourself a favour and ignore this number! They're nothing but a bunch of con artists attempting to peddle electricity plans. Steer clear of them! I highly recommend checking out the reviews before engaging with these folks!8 yearsHung up after only a couple seconds.Submit Your Own Report (01253 978747)
