01263263008 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01263263008 👆 is reported as a persistent and aggressive scam operation targeting both residential and business users with cold calls claiming to be from various UK energy suppliers. Callers frequently change names and companies, including well-known providers, and request sensitive information such as meter numbers or invoice details under the guise of resolving billing or technical issues. They often know partial business details but fail to confirm accounts properly and become hostile or disconnect abruptly when challenged. Multiple reports highlight refusal to respect opt-outs, high call frequency, and unprofessional conduct. It is strongly advised not to share any personal or account information during such calls and to independently verify any concerns directly with your official energy supplier using contact details from official documentation.

Got a call from 01263200836, appeared to be from Cromer. The person said something about the Energy Department, but it sounded dodgy to me. So I chose to ignore it since I don’t answer calls from numbers I don’t know.

Even after telling them to remove my number from their database, they wouldn’t stop ringing. Got a little annoyed and told them, "I swear, if I find out where you nabbed my number from!" They just hung up right away after that.

Someone rang me up claiming to be from Eon Next, but they soon became evasive when I didn’t divulge any further details. In the end, they just dropped the call!

I had a rather odd encounter with someone claiming to be from SSE, requesting my meter number. It struck me as quite suspicious. Has anyone else had a similar experience?

Someone rang me claiming to be Umer from Scottish Power. He said there’d been some glitch over the weekend and he needed to check if the bill was going to the right company. He asked me to grab the last invoice and verify the meter number. While he was on the line, I quickly searched the number online and saw loads of others warning about it. When I told him what I’d found, he kept saying ‘no no no, that’s not right’ - so I just ended the call!

Absolute con artist! They were masquerading as British Gas, saying there had been a mistake and wanting to verify certain information.

Somebody keeps ringing up, giving different names like "Steve", "Mark" or "Richard," claiming to be from "Eon" with some nonsense about a fault between their meter and billing system. I knew it was dodgy, so I played along for a bit, telling them straight up it was a scam. Eventually got so fed up, they started shouting swear words and hurling abuse, which just made me laugh even more!

I got loads of calls from someone saying they were meter readers for both my suppliers. I told them I wasn't gonna talk on the phone about it and ended the call, but they just kept ringing non stop, like every minute or so. Proper annoying!

Fraudulent phone call - definitely not legit!

Got a call from someone who said they were with SSE and mentioned an issue with our last bill and meter reading. They used our company’s mailing address, but that’s not where the meter actually is, plus the account number they quoted didn’t add up. They kept insisting I find a past invoice to check some info with them.

Just got a call about my meter supply, sounded like a total scam to me. They tried to get my details but I quickly hung up. Watch out, people!

Got a call from a bloke calling himself Richard, said he was ringing on behalf of SSE. He actually knew our business name, which was unusual for these kinds of calls! He wanted to discuss meter readings, so I told him to hold on a moment. I quickly looked up the number online and saw it was flagged as a scam, so I said I’d have to end the call. Was pretty funny hearing him go “no no no no!” right as I hung up!

I keep receiving calls from someone claiming to be from Opus Energy. They’re insisting there’s a technical glitch on their part and that they require my ID Number. They’ve got my name and business address down; however, they’re now asking for my meter ID to supposedly make sure I receive the right invoice next month. The thing is, I've already received my invoice without any problems! This feels like a complete scam, and no matter how many times I tell them I'm not interested, they just won’t take ‘no’ for an answer! The chap introduces himself as John, but I doubt that's his real name...

Got a call while I was at work, some person said they were from Scottish Power and wanted me to grab my recent bill because apparently, there’s an issue with reading the meter. Thing is, they didn’t seem to know anything about our account or even the business itself, just the address. I quickly searched their number on Google during the call and ended up telling her the number is apparently flagged as a scam. Right after that, she just hung up on me!

This number keeps ringing our office line, saying they're from the electricity company. Weirdly, every time it's a different supplier they mention! A woman with an Indian accent tells us there's a fault with our electric meter and we're owed some money back. They do get our business name right but have an outdated address. Absolute scam and just a massive headache.

Just had a rather dodgy call from someone claiming to be from "Eon," and let me tell you, they were quite pushy! They insisted we would be disconnected unless we gave them some details. Naturally, we refused to budge, and before we knew it, the chap resorted to some choice language. We swiftly hung up the phone! Total scam alert!

I got a call from someone who said they were with EON asking for our meter reading and said we could get a refund. They didn’t want to or couldn’t send any verification by email though. Felt a bit off if you ask me.

We’re being pestered daily regarding some invoice that’s supposedly on the horizon, yet they simply refuse to provide any account details or clarify why it's needed in the first place. One moment it’s an impending bill; the next, it’s one we’ve received previously? The woman on the other end is quite abrasive, constantly insisting on speaking to the individual in charge of our accounts. Honestly, if it were British Gas trying to reach us, I reckon they’d opt for a letter instead and offer a much more courteous level of service! This caller has rang us twice a day for the last fortnight-it’s proving nearly impossible to shake her off!

I keep getting calls from someone claiming to be from Smartest Energy, insisting they need my meter readings. They've called me roughly 15 times now-talk about persistent! It feels like they won't accept a refusal. It's getting a bit tiresome!

Received a call claiming to be from British Gas, mentioning there was a discrepancy between our meter readings and their records. They inquired about our meter number, but we opted not to provide it since they didn't offer any sort of extra security or two-factor authentication.

Someone rang me saying they were from our new electricity supplier and mentioned there was a problem with our meter number, claiming it was wrong. We get calls like this quite often, and it’s clearly a con. They seem to have loads of your info already, like your address and MPAN number. I think their aim is to trick you into giving them your meter number so they can put your account through some dodgy changes. Never hand out personal details when you get these calls. If you’re unsure, just ring up your actual energy company yourself to check if anything needs fixing.

Got a phone call at work from someone pretending to be with British Gas Lite. Pretty sure it was a scam.
