Phone number ☎️ 01388300894 👆 is reported as a scam operation impersonating well-known UK energy suppliers like Octopus Energy, British Gas, and SSE. Callers typically claim there is a mix-up or technical issue with billing or supply details, requesting sensitive information such as meter or invoice numbers. These calls are often aggressive, unable or unwilling to provide official correspondence via email, and use outdated or incorrect data to appear credible. Many recipients have recognised this as fraud, advising others to avoid sharing information, report the number to the ICO, and block any such calls to protect against identity theft or financial loss. The consensus is to remain cautious as these calls are not genuine utility inquiries.

Claimed to be from Octopus Energy with regards to a mix up with our supply address which is incorrect as we have a smart meter and the last bill was correct with all the relevant data; couldn't email the request over and kept talking over me. Reported to the ICO as a spam caller.

Got a call this morning from someone saying they were from our electricity company. They said there was some kind of technical problem and we’d be wrongly billed for another business next door unless we confirmed our details with them. Honestly, we’re well aware these are dodgy calls so I asked him to email the request instead - unsurprisingly, he couldn’t. Ended up keeping him chatting on the phone for ages just to pass the time!

This caller said they were from British Gas, but it was pretty clear they weren’t, because they gave me really old and incorrect details. Definitely a scam or something fishy going on.

Got a call from someone claiming to be with SSE, asking for my meter and supply number. I told them I couldn’t get an invoice right now, and they said they’d ring back in about an hour or so.

Got a call from someone called Caroline pretending to be from Octopus Energy, saying there was a problem with their records and asking for my bill details. She's just a scammer and a complete liar. Hope she finds a proper job instead of trying to con folks like this. Total energy scam. Just block the number.

Got a call from someone claiming to be British Gas, saying there’d been a mix-up with the meters nearby and they wanted to check my billing was right. I tried to keep chatting for ages just to waste their time, then they eventually gave up and hung up. Made my day!

Got a call pretending to be from Octopus Energy, said there’s some problem with their system and wanted my meter number from the bill. Total rubbish. Definitely report stuff like this to ico.org.
