Reports on phone number 01482246945
7 yearsI received a message from this number that was utterly baffling, even after we played it back ten times between the two of us. All we could pick out was the phone number, which I decided to ring. What ensued was complete silence, followed by some sort of music, and then more disjointed chatter. I attempted to press button one, but it just led to more of that confounding music. In the end, I threw my hands up in defeat.7 yearsGot a robo call from this number saying I needed to ring back to set up a smart meter installation. They said they were from National Grid, but National Grid doesn’t handle smart meters at all. Sounds like a dodgy scam trying to get into your home.National Grid7 yearsThis definitely isn’t National Grid. I rang their official freephone and they said they don’t deal with Smart Meters at all. This number is just for booking engineers to install the Smart Meters, that’s all. Sounds like energy firms have just handed it off to some regular call centre! Plus, I called three times in a row and each time they hung up on me within a minute. No way I’m calling them again.National Grid8 yearsThe main point of putting in smart meters is so they can charge you different rates depending on when you use electricity. Feels like they’re spying on us! I got a call from someone saying they were from my energy provider wanting to put one in, but I already told the company I’m not interested.8 yearsSupposedly calling for my energy provider, trying to give a free smart meter. Told em “no thanks” and ended the call. Blocked the number, but I’m sure they’ve got loads more to try again with.8 yearsThis number belongs to Hull, so don’t ring back. If you’re a BT customer, it’ll end up costing you loads.Hull8 years01482 246945 never actually rings through to my phone, it just hits voicemail straight away (how’s that even possible?) and leaves a message asking me to ring them back to arrange a smart meter appointment. This has happened loads of times now, probably about a dozen. The funny thing is, it's government-backed cold calling, and honestly it feels like harassment. I’m really grateful for sites like this - without them, I might feel pushed into something I really don’t want or need.8 yearsGot a call from National Grid Smart, said they were ringing for my energy company to arrange a smart meter install.National Grid Smart8 yearsThey call me every single day and always on a voice call.8 yearsPhone Guardian stopped the call which is good. After reading the comments, I feel relieved. I'd stay clear of smart meters for now, since they tend to stop working properly if you switch providers.8 yearsThe call never got past BT's call blocking, but judging from the other comments, it's clear this has nothing to do with your energy company since mine never even had my landline number.BT8 yearsManaged to score myself a complimentary smart meter!8 yearsJust got £5 credit for changing my old pay-as-you-go meter, nice little bonus!8 yearsHad a missed call. From what I’ve read, seems it’s about a smart meter. Never asked for one with my provider so dunno how they got my number to keep bugging me?!8 yearsGot a cold call about a smart meter. Told them I’m not interested and asked them not to ring again. They just keep calling anyway even tho I’ve said no before.8 yearsAt last, ive been trying to get a smart meter for so long :-)8 yearsGot a call from National Grid for my gas and electric company about installing a smart meter. The guy was proper helpful, and the meter is brilliant. Now I can actually keep track of how much my kids are burning through my money!National Grid8 yearsGot a super noisy, jumbled message about smart meters. Didn’t ask for this call and I’m on the TPS list, so shouldn’t be gettin calls like these. Really annoying.8 yearsAbsolutely one of those smart meter calls. I’ve said I’m not interested and don’t need one, but they keep saying the UK Government wants everyone to have one by 2020. Truth is, it’s not actually compulsory to have one fitted. So if you get one of these calls, just mess about a bit with their automatic questions, it’s well funny. I once said my address was 4 Brick Lane, Wazzock, D12 ZZZ (No care either). These cold callers deserve a bit of cheek thrown back at them!UK8 yearsHad to report this number once more. Just hang up and say it’s about a smart meter. If I needed one, I’d sort it myself. Tell ’em to jog on.8 yearsThis number 01482 246945 belongs to National Grid. They keep calling and texting me about smart meters, but honestly their approach feels quite aggressive. I even got a message from them at about 10am saying my power was off and they'd try to fix it by 3pm, and that I should get in touch. Thing is, my electricity was never disconnected that day and I didn’t bother calling them. I never shared my number with them and really don’t want to hear from them anymore, but they just keep pushing and won’t respect me saying no.National8 yearsThose smart meters dont actually bring down your yeary energy bills, its a bit pointless really.8 yearsGot a call around 7.45pm from a bloke claiming he was with national grid. i told him my energy company has already tried to arrange a smart meter install but i’m not interested. they’re not forced on us anyway. then this afternoon about 1.30pm a lady rang and left a voicemail asking me to call back, which there’s no way i will be doing.National Grid8 yearsnational grid keeps ringing about some smart meter, even though ive told them no thanks. did some digging and turns out there’s no law forcing you to get one. energy firms just got targets to hit, that’s why they’re so persistent.National Grid8 yearsGot a call from National Grid about a smart meter, they asked me to ring them back after I left a message on their answerphone. I’ve already told my supplier I’m not interested, but I’m still getting emails trying to book an appointment to install one. Proper annoying!8 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be from National Grid about a smart meter too. Even tho I’m on the TPS, it hasn’t stopped these calls at all.8 yearsGot a voicemail from 01482 246945 saying they were from National Grid about fitting a smart meter and to ring back. But after checking National Grid’s website, it says they don’t handle domestic customers, and you need to contact your energy supplier instead. Seems a bit dodgy, could it be a scam?!National Grid8 yearsthis number is from the national grid, something to do with smart meters. bit shocked as i got a new meter put in like 18 months ago, but it wasnt one of those smart ones. i made it clear to my supplier i didnt want a smart meter at all. if you dont answer, they usually ring again.8 yearsjust had a call from national grid about their smart meters, anyone else had this? seem a bit pushy about installing them smartabout or something. not sure if legit or a scam?National GridSubmit Your Own Report (01482 246945)
