01434290397 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01434290397 👆 is reported as a persistent scam using a cloned number with callers claiming to be from British Gas, often speaking with a strong Indian accent. Scammers typically ask about boiler services or home cover contracts that recipients do not have, sometimes demanding bank details. They may become aggressive or hang up when challenged or confronted. Many users have noted background voices suggesting a call centre environment, and the calls frequently violate TPS regulations. It is advised to remain silent, listen for suspicious background noise, and hang up if the caller persists or requests personal information. Blocking the number may offer limited protection, as scams often use multiple spoofed numbers. Vigilance is strongly recommended to avoid falling victim.

BG do not use geographical numbers when calling out.

Got called from a number that said it's BG, but the person had an Indian accent, which sounded off. BG usually don’t use local numbers for calls like that. Ended up blocking the number - though honestly, it feels like it doesn’t do much!

I called asking to speak with the man of the house, and when they said there wasn’t one, they just started swearing and slammed the phone down on me.

Received a call from this cloned number (01434290397) today (30/06/2025) at 16:43. The caller had a heavy Indian accent, and I could hear several similar voices in the background; the caller said he was from British Gas and was calling about my Home Cover (which I don't have). I called him out and told him he was not from BG and that he was, in fact, a scammer at a call centre in India. He tried to deny this and stick to his script, but I just kept repeating he was a scammer in an Indian call centre; he ended the call after I repeated this three times. Advice for unknown numbers: Accept the call but do not speak; if it is a call centre or robot call, it will disconnect. If you receive a response, listen carefully to see if you can hear any background noise and if the caller has a heavy Indian accent, they are very probably scammers. If they are talking about a service or organisation you do not have an account with, they are scammers. If they persist and you start to get confused, put the phone down/end the call.

Got a call today (30/06/2025) at 16:43 from what looked like a legit number (01434290397) but it was obvious a clone. The guy had a strong Indian accent and I could hear other voices chatting away in the background. He claimed to be ringing from British Gas about my Home Cover, which I don't even have. I called him out straight away, saying he was a scammer working from an India-based call centre. He tried to stick to his story but I kept telling him he was faking it. After I kept repeating this a few times, he finally hung up.

So I got a call from some bloke wanting to talk to the woman of the house. When I asked what it was about, he claimed he was from British Gas and there was something wrong with our boiler. I told him we don’t have British Gas or even a boiler, and then he just hung up on me!

At 14:05 on 30/06/2025, I got a phone call from this number. The person said they were calling about my British Gas maintenance contract, which I don’t even have. They then asked for my bank details, starting with the sort code, so I just gave him 12-34-56. When he asked which bank it belonged to, I said it could be any bank. After I told him that, he got all annoyed and I told him it was 'cause I knew he was trying to scam me. He got quite angry and hung up but actually did admit he was a scammer before he did.

Got a ring from this number, a woman named Sophie said she was checking on my British Gas boiler and home insurance. I told her straight up I knew she was just some scammer probably calling from India, told her to jog on, and slammed the phone down. Then I quickly went into my phone settings and blocked the number straight away.

I got a call from a woman with an Asian accent who said her name was Sophie and that she worked for British Gas. She was trying to get me to take out a Gas Boiler Service contract. Even though I was listening and trying to engage with her, she suddenly cut the call off. Since I’m on the TPS list, this has to be an illegal call. I think it was probably a scam aimed at fishing for personal info, so I’d say be super careful with calls like this.
