Just got a phone call from some bloke trying to flog me electricity. When I asked which company he was with, he said he worked for several suppliers. Told him we don’t even have electric here, we just use candles, and he actually called me a liar! I laughed it off and told him nice sales pitch before hanging up. Honestly, why bother with this sort of thing? They’re just rubbish.

These pests are unbelievable. The UK authorities and cops have full knowledge of who these people are, where they operate, and what they’re up to, but still no action. A couple of well-placed firebombs would fix the problem quick. Don’t start whining about it - they’re breaking the law with their unwanted calls, targeting vulnerable folks and scaring them into handing over cash right in their own houses. Proper low-life scum.

Tried to offload some electric stuff but got really pushy and started swearing at me.

I've been getting loads of calls about my energy deal and British Gas. The guy on the phone sounded Indian and I could barely understand him. He was quite pushy and turned really aggressive. Best thing to do is just end the call.

There’s this Indian woman who keeps ringing me up every single day, asking for the manager. Even after I’ve said we’re not bothered, she just doesn’t give up! It’s honestly quite annoying.

Got a call where the guy said our name straight away, then kept saying hello hello and asked who he was actually calling. Seemed pretty shady to me! I just ended the call - obvious scam if you ask me.

Been getting calls repeatedly from a woman with an Indian accent claiming to be from some sort of 'Energy' business. She keeps asking to talk to the manager and keeps insisting on getting a mobile number to send over our energy bills. It’s been happening quite a few times now.

I got a few calls from this bloke who said he was from the department of energy, asking for the person in charge at the business. After the first call, he rang back about four more times and just kept getting more and more pushy. Honestly, he was a right nasty bloke.

Our work phone has been getting calls from these lot several times now. Every time I made it clear I didn’t want any more calls and asked them to take us off their calling list. I wasn’t quite sure of the company’s name they mentioned, but it seemed to be something to do with energy. I’ve reported them to the CTPS. If anyone else is getting these bothersome calls on their business line, it’s worth reporting them too, or if it’s your personal number, then get in touch with the TPS.

I had to listen a few times before I could make out what the lady was trying to say. She said she was calling from the UK Energy Department regarding our electricty and gas services.

They were trying to collect voice recordings to break into bank accounts, I guess. Seems like some kinda scam to me.

Called me two times within a couple minutes but just ended the call both times without saying a word. I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number now.

Best not to bother picking up when they ring. They keep harassing about energy stuff even though we've told them loads of times that we're in serviced offices. I guess they just don’t get it, probably cuz they’re all based in India or something.

For about two weeks now, I've been getting repeated phone calls from someone claiming to be from British Gas. Normally, it's a man with an Indian accent asking for the manager, but today a woman called, also with an Indian accent. They keep saying they want to talk about our British Gas account, but we don’t actually have one. It's really frustrating.

We keep getting calls to our dental surgery, about five times daily from an Indian gentleman. He insists on speaking to the practice manager and tries to get hold of staff mobile numbers. Whenever we say we’re not interested, he quickly becomes quite rude and pushy.

I got a call from this guy with an Indian accent who was speaking super quick, something about the energy company or centre. It was hard to keep up with what he was saying!

Been getting loads of calls non-stop about my gas and electric. They rang me loads in just a few minutes. I asked if it was about the gas or electric, but the guy just said he didn’t know. Then he started asking for my job title and other info. Honestly, just block and ignore these calls.

This caller was really unclear and hard to follow! They kept wanting to talk to my boss but never explained what the call was about. Didn’t even know the name of my company, which was odd. Rang me up four separate times. I had to ask them to say it again twice, but on the third time I gave up and they just ended the call.

Typical call from an Indian call centre. Once you figure out who it is, just put them on mute for a bit and then tell them to hang up. Best to just ignore and not to get involved 'cause they keep pestering if you do.

Got a call from someone saying they're from 'the energy department', but when I asked which company, they just mentioned OPEC energy. Definitely sounded like an Indian call centre to me.
