It seems we're being bombarded by calls from this number, claiming they can help us save on gas and electric bills (which is particularly amusing, considering I don’t even have gas!). In our view, these individuals are nothing but con artists who refuse to take ‘no’ for an answer. We've even warned them that we might report their number or their company if they keep this up.

Received a call from this number today. The caller had a Northern accent and mentioned someone called Mr Patel or something along those lines. Oddly enough, they didn’t bother to introduce their company at all. Quite peculiar, really.

I just had a call from this number, and when I answered, the individuals on the line claimed to be from WHSmith. They went on to say that the call quality was poor and requested to ring me back shortly. That was just moments ago - about ten seconds, in fact. Something feels a bit off about this situation. Why on earth would WHSmith be attempting to get in touch with me? They haven't called back, and they seemed to know my name too. Very peculiar, if you ask me!

I keep receiving calls from this number on my landline, but they never leave a message. Has anyone got a clue about who it might be?

I've recently been inundated with some dodgy cold callers, and what’s alarming is that they knew my wife’s name! They claimed that all I had to do was consent to a few terms, and they’d handle the switch of our supplier. It’s baffling, as I’ve never had any prior dealings with this company. Take heed, friends-this is definitely a scam.

I wouldn't place any faith in this company, as they're nothing but con artists! They will relentlessly bombard you with calls until you lose your cool. Keep your wits about you, especially regarding the numbers 01254 697244 and 0845 543 6679.

Steer clear of these individuals at all costs! They’ll spin tales to extract information from you and then try to ensnare you in some sketchy agreements. Best to give them a wide berth, just as you would with the plague!

We just received a call on our business line from someone claiming to be sorting out a rebate cheque for us. Mind you, we're in serviced office space and don’t deal directly with energy providers. It immediately struck me as a phishing attempt for our account details. Purely scammers, if you ask me!

We recently received a call from this number, and the individuals on the other end claimed to be from EON electricity. Has anyone encountered this before? Could it possibly be a scam?

I just received a call from this number. We answered, and the individuals on the other end claimed to be from WHSmith. Interestingly, they asked when they might call us again, saying the line was poor and they couldn’t quite catch what we were saying. I could’ve sworn that call ended just moments ago. Something doesn’t feel right. Why on earth would WHSmith be reaching out to me? They certainly aren’t the last in a long list of callers, and it’s peculiar how they knew my name.
