They had loads of my details like birthday and address but got my name totally wrong, so clearly they don’t have all my info.

I’ve told them loads of times to quit calling me and to remove me from their list, but they just don’t stop. Even after I blocked their number, my phone still rings every few hours from different numbers. Honestly, it’s so annoying, feels like they’re trying to get through no matter what.

I got a call supposedly from someone at Scottish Power, EDF, or British Gas - can't even remember which exactly. The person had quite a foreign accent, maybe Middle Eastern, even though they said they were calling from Scotland. It really gave me the impression it was a scam, since the voice definitely wasn’t British.

Over the last couple of days, this number has tried reaching me thrice. Today, they left a voicemail, but it was just silence with some crackling noise - no real message. I’m steering clear and won’t pick up next time since all the reviews say it’s a scam.

Got a call from someone pretending to be from Scottish Power and British Gas, which seemed dodgy right away. They asked for my age, which I found odd. I refused to give it and asked why they even needed to know that. They replied it was to check if I’m the one in charge of the gas and electric bills. I told them no, and said surely they could just ask that directly instead of fishing for age. As soon as I said I wasn’t responsible, the line started acting glitchy, but I’m 100% sure I wasn’t breaking up. Seems like they couldn’t trick me since I’m not the account holder. 😂

Over the past week, this number has phoned me repeatedly but I’ve ignored it every time it popped up on my phone. My phone even labels it as a ‘spam’ caller. I’m with Scottish Power and use their app, so if they needed to reach me, I’m confident they’d do it through the app or email. I’ve decided to block this number now to stop the hassle.

The call seemed to come from a centre in Manila, as I heard them speaking Tagalog in the background. The caller claimed to be from Scottish Power, but I told him I’d get my quote straight from Scottish Power myself. I warned him it would be a privacy violation to give out any personal info since I couldn’t verify where he was actually calling from. For anyone thinking of switching provider, best to ring up Scottish Power directly or check out their official site... or just use uswitch instead.

I don’t get how Scottish Power can be giving out personal info to dodgy callers once you end your contract. There’s no way these scammy people should have your details! Just block them and make sure you report it to the ICO.

Got a call from someone trying to persuade us to switch back to Scottish Power, even though we left them last year. The caller claimed they could offer a bargain deal plus £100 off our bills. They asked when our contract ended and mentioned if it was within 49 days, there’d be no exit fee. I told him he should know the date since he had the info, and he said it was 29th Feb. I looked up our details during the call and their date was completely wrong by a couple of months!

This number has been calling me about 7 or 8 times in the past few days, but thankfully my phone’s blocking them without me having to pick up. I actually cancelled my Scottish Power account a week ago, so it's a bit frustrating if it’s them still trying to get in touch. When I was a customer, I made sure they only contacted me by email, so they really shouldn’t be ringing or sharing my number around.

Didn’t push too hard, just seemed like he was trying to make a good connection.

Got a call from someone claiming to be with Scottish Power. She said she wanted to chat about closing our account but needed to check our details first. I told her the account was already closed so there was nothing to talk about, and I didn’t give her any info. Then she said she had to end the call.

I received a rather peculiar phone call today. The lady on the other end inquired if I had applied for a loan that required repayment to the government. She mentioned that she couldn't assist with switching my gas or electricity supply due to my prepayment smart meters. Interestingly enough, she had a Scottish accent and seemed to lose patience quite quickly. As soon as we hit a snag regarding the energy efficiency loan, she abruptly hung up on me. Quite the experience, I must say!

Absolutely spot on - this reeks of a scam, pretending to represent Scottish Power. Having switched to Octopus myself, I'm now inundated with calls like these. It's a doddle to block the numbers, but it's quite troubling that Scottish Power appears to have leaked some of my personal information. What more can you anticipate from a company that's been rated a dismal '15 out of 16' for customer service by Which? Plus, it's concerning knowing they're fully owned by a foreign energy giant, Iberdrola.

Got two calls from this number on Friday but they never left a voicemail. I’ve also had calls from “them” showing up as South Shields on a different phone. Honestly, OfCom really needs to crack down on these caller ID scams. These firms shouldn’t be allowed to use numbers from loads of different places. I’m relieved I’m no longer with SP.

Received a call purporting to be from Scottish Power. I’ve recently made the switch to Octopus and the caller insisted they needed to inform me about what to anticipate moving forward. To be honest, the changes have already taken place! What baffled me was their insistence on me providing personal details to confirm my identity, yet they wouldn’t offer any verification of their own. I find this approach highly unprofessional - regardless of whether the call was legitimate or not. Just a word of advice: never engage with unknown callers unless they can prove who they are upfront.
