I got a missed call from someone called "Mike" at Energy Prices Direct using the number 0141 737 6486. They left a voicemail asking me to ring back on that same number. Interestingly, this number also shows up on the site for Future Utility Consultants, and according to Companies House, both are run by the same company.

So this Energy Prices Direct Ltd, yeah? Looks like the directors listed on Companies House are Puneet Sabharwal, Attia Siknder and Usman Sikner. They have Glasgow addresses, but that doesn’t necessarily mean the call centre or even the directors live there. Seems dodgy. The company’s been around since 2009, but I reckon it’s just a front set up to use a virtual number from some overseas call centre.

Got a voicemail on our home phone today from some bloke with a thick Indian accent telling us to ring back 01416285966 and ask for "Ash... something". The message claimed it was related to my role as a Trustee in our organisation but didn’t say who actually called or why. The message itself came through from 01234923077. I’m just going to block both those numbers now.

Got a call today from someone named Clay, sounded like he had a bit of an accent, from the number 0141 628 5966. He was asking about a charity I used to be secretary for, a few years back. Said he was calling from Energy Direct or something like that.

Got a few calls from someone called Chloe on 0121 823 1175, which I later found out has been flagged as a scam number. She claimed to be with Future Utility Consultants and kept calling quite a few times. Apparently, they supposedly help charities get VAT refunds and cut down utility bills. The company name sounded more American to me though. I told her I’d call back later and she gave me that same number. After looking it up, it was clear it was a scam. She was very polite and seemed professional but her accent was a bit hard to catch.

Got a weird call today from a woman with an Indian accent, said her name was Chloe. She was asking specifically for the manager of our city farm, by name, about some sort of discount linked to a charity. She claimed to represent a firm called EPD. Felt a bit fishy to me.

I got a voicemail from 0141 5303573 asking me to call back about an energy account linked to the village hall, which I’m officially listed as the main contact for on the charity register. They never said which village hall or what company they were calling from though. I've been getting loads of calls like this on and off for a few years now, and I seriously think it’s all a bit dodgy.

Got a voicemail asking me to ring back this number. Didn’t seem right since the area code was unfamiliar. Checked it out and turns out it’s from Glasgow - I’ve got no mates or business there. Your site helped me figure out it was dodgy. Definitely not calling them back. Cheers for that.

This number keeps calling nonstop, asking for the treasurer of the village hall - which I used to be, but I’m not anymore. They say they can help charities save a lot on their energy bills, but it’s just a pain and they never stop ringing. I’ve been getting these calls on and off for about three years now. I’m guessing they pick the details up from the Charity Commission’s public info. The voice is always a woman with an Indian accent. In the end, I’ve just blocked the number.

Got a call from 01416285966 and the person was trying to guess my energy provider, but oddly, they had some info on my address and a group I'm connected with. She said she was contacting me for my supplier but never actually said which one. Since my energy is managed online, I knew it wasn’t them calling. Felt like she was just trying to get info out of me, but I wasn’t about to spill anything. Watch out for this one!

Got a call but as soon as my answerphone picked up, they just hung up straight away. Then, about half a minute later, the same number, 01905-700693, called again and did the exact same thing - clicked off when the answerphone started. Feels like a spam call to me, but they’re defo wrong if they think I’m gonna get caught out by it!

I got a call about the village hall charity and asked why she was ringing from India. She seemed a bit thrown off, like she didn't expect me to know, then said they have an office there or something. Pretty clear it was a scam from that 0141 number. I told her to stop wasting my time and hung up.

Got a call claiming to be from Glasgow, but it was obvious they weren’t. They said the charity I handle finances for was overpaying on utilities and offered to sort it out. Thing is, we don’t even have an office! They were persistent and rang me twice. Felt like a total scam to me, probably would’ve asked for payments to switch us to a “better” deal. They mentioned some firm called EDP, but it all sounded fishy. Watch out folks, definitely dodgy!

I’ve gotten quite a few calls about energy bills for the village hall where I’m the treasurer. They keep mentioning the names of our trustees, which I guess they found on the charity commission’s site. They claim my home number was given to them by the trustees, but I know that’s not true - they must have just grabbed it from the same website! Also, I’ve had some emails too, probably from the same people.

Scam alert - Got a phone call about a charity I supposedly am treasurer of, which is totally wrong. They insisted they’d been in touch with me for years, but that’s not true either. When I asked if they were a UK firm, they said they were from Energy Trust in Glasgow. I also brought up the Telephone Preference Service and asked why they hadn’t run my number through it first. They just said they were volunteers and weren’t aware of it. Looks dodgy to me!

I got a call asking for our charity’s treasurer, and the person left their name and number but didn’t say what company they were with. Earlier this year, a similar firm emailed us. They might be legit - they claim to help switch utility providers to lower bills and earn a cut from them - but all they really do is grab contacts from the Charity Commission database and keep pestering you to switch. I’d say just block these numbers and stick with a proper utility switching service instead!

This isn’t the first time I’ve received calls from them, seems like they’re fishing through lists of charities linked to community centres or something. I told them I’m on the TPS and their number’s officially blocked, so I’d be reporting them. Guess they’ve got no real work or it’s all they do all day. Me? Nah, I’ve got better stuff to do than pick up for these nuisance calls non-stop.

When they left messages, they gave 0208 144 3802 as a callback number. They never actually told me who they were or what company they were with. Bit annoying really, always wanted a call back but no real details.

They keep ringin’ up asking for the Treasurer about saving on energy bills. About a year ago I finally picked up just to get them to stop harassing me. I told them we weren’t interested and they went quiet for a while. Now they’re back again, really stubborn with their calls. So irritating!
