01453333018 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01453333018 👆 is reported as a persistent scam number impersonating UK energy suppliers such as British Gas, EDF, Octopus Energy, Scottish Power, EON, and others. Callers often claim billing errors, meter reading issues, or system problems, pressuring recipients for personal, account, or contract information. Multiple reports highlight aggressive follow-ups, spoofed numbers, and refusal to accept non-cooperation. Both residential and business users experience repeated calls, sometimes multiple times in a day. Genuine energy companies do not typically request sensitive information via unsolicited calls. Users are strongly advised not to share any details, verify directly with their actual providers, and to block the number to avoid harassment. This number is widely recognised as linked to fraudulent activities and should be treated with caution.

I got a few calls from this number within half an hour, asking all sorts about our electricity and power setup. They sounded nice enough but something felt a bit off, like they weren't being totally honest.

Got a phone call at work on 4th Sept 2024 supposedly from British Gas light asking for our meter reading. We use a smart meter that sends readings automatically or we do it through their website. Be careful and don’t share any details with them!

I keep getting calls from the same number claiming to be from EDF Energy about some bill issue. We always pay by direct debit and I've never had an energy company ring up like this before. They’re really persistent, I’ve picked up and hung up a few times but they just call back immediately. Be careful and don’t share any personal details!

I received a call from someone claiming to be with The Electric City Reading Company. Mid-way through his spiel, he corrected himself and said he was actually with Smartest Energy, our current electricity provider. Then the familiar routine began-something about a mistake with the meter reading and our postcode, plus he requested I verify our customer number, the usual irritating rigmarole. To be honest, I've lost count of how many times I've answered similar calls in the past few months. I just can’t fathom what they’re after. I finally told him not to bother calling again, but I suppose this won’t be the last time!

Got a call from some bloke pretending to be from EDF, soundin all dodgy. He said something like, "We've got your account number but it doesn’t match your address, can you confirm where you live?" Yeah right, I know it’s a scam - my bills are spot on with my address. Gave him nothing. Tried ringing the number back straight away, but it said the number's no longer working. How are these fraudsters even faking numbers that don’t exist anymore? Proper confusing!

BEWARE SCAM - I won’t say how I worked it out as they probably scout websites like this to perfect their tricks. If it’s legit, they’ll contact you directly through your gas provider’s secure messaging system. Under no circumstances should you share any reference numbers!

About 12 days back I left a comment about this, but now I’m getting fed up and have started labelling these calls as risky! The person on the line talks like they know what they’re saying, which makes me nervous... I’m really losing patience with the nonstop ringing, just got another call today at 1:10pm and they refuse to accept a ‘no’.

Somebody claiming to be from EDF called me up saying the address they have linked to our meter number is wrong for billing. Thing is, I’ve been getting my bills on time, no issues at all, for the past 6 months. Feels like a complete con to me.

Our company has got roughly 10 calls from this bloke using this number, saying he was from British Gas. At first he just wanted meter readings, but then he started pushing for details about our invoices and company account. After he kept ringing nonstop over 10 times and got more and more rude when we told him to leave us alone, we had no choice but to block the number. What a nightmare!

We run a company and got a call on 9th Aug 2024 asking for the person who handles the EDF account about some incorrect meter readings. We told them that person wasn’t available. Then today, 14th Aug 2024, they called back and asked the same question again, only to be told they were still out. They promised to ring us back… yeah right, can’t wait for that!

Got a dodgy call from someone saying they were with Eon, telling me my last bill was wrong. They wanted loads of info like my supply meter and other stuff to "fix" it. Yeah right, like I’m gonna share that! Then all of a sudden, they switched up and said they were with EDF instead. Total scam, avoided them straight away.

Got a call from someone who said they were with EON, telling me my bills had been mixed up with someone else's and I was being charged too much. I hung up, but then he rang back and got quite rude when I said I wasn't interested and didn’t think the call was genuine. Definitely not a real EON call, just a scam trying to get personal info. Don’t give them anything!

Got a call off someone named Jack who said he was with Smartest Energy. He reckoned we were being overcharged by loads of money, but he couldn’t even confirm our account number properly. A lot of what he said was just wrong. He also mentioned other homes in our area had problems, so I told him to reach out to them instead, not us.

Someone rang me saying they were from Crown’s gas meter reading team. They mentioned that six folks nearby had got incorrect bills and wanted to check the meter number on our statement. I told them I didn’t have that info on me and that I would ring Crown gas myself to speak with their meter reading department, then I ended the call. This isn’t the first occasion they’ve tried this excuse...

I just received a rather dubious call from someone purporting to be from British Gas. They had my address right and proceeded to ask me to verify an invoice number. As they droned on, I swiftly checked the number online and confronted them, mentioning that the number they'd dialled me on was a scam. When I pointed this out, the chap quickly retorted, “Ma’am, I’m calling from a switchboard.” I couldn't help but fire back, noting that just three days prior, I had spoken to someone from Octopus Energy, and four days before that it was SSE. All of it was right there on Google! He promptly hung up - I couldn't help but chuckle!

I've had a rather bothersome experience with a caller purporting to be from British Gas. When I asked for the name of the representative who handles our energy contract, they couldn't provide a proper answer and, curiously, didn’t have an email address to share either. After I hung up, they promptly rang back not once, but twice! It’s pretty clear this is a dodgy operation.

I received a phone call from this number, purporting to be from Pozitive Energy, our energy supplier. The caller claimed that we had submitted a meter reading a couple of days ago but that the last letter of our postcode was incorrect. He insisted that we should halt our direct debit and disregard the forthcoming bill due to this supposed error. He then pressed me to fetch an old bill for verification purposes. When I explained that I couldn't access the bills as they are with our landlord, he became quite pushy and hinted that I was being deceitful, which I most certainly was not. Upon informing him that we were renters and that the bills are sent to our landlord, he fell silent and abruptly terminated the call after a brief pause. It’s clear this is a scam!

Received a call from someone purporting to be from British Gas. They had my name, address, and even some details about my meter, which felt a tad alarming. This individual was quite insistent on obtaining more information about my contract with them, including my customer ID and other sensitive details. Just as I was about to hang up, he rang me again. This time, a colleague got the call and noted down his number for me to call back. However, upon investigation, this number turned out to be completely unrelated to British Gas. The persistence was rather unsettling, I must say.
