01615201354 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01615201354 👆 is reported as a persistent and aggressive scam call often involving an individual claiming to represent well-known energy suppliers such as British Gas, SSE, EDF, E.ON, and others. Callers typically allege errors with meter readings, postcodes, or billing details, pressuring for confirmation of personal and account information. Many reports indicate the callers use detailed data to appear legitimate but refuse to provide verifiable contact details and react rudely when questioned. The calls may come from varying numbers, often with Indian-accented voices, and attempts to extract meter or supply numbers are common. Recipients are strongly advised not to engage, provide any information, or call back, but instead report the number to official fraud prevention agencies. Blocking the number alone is usually ineffective due to spoofing techniques used.
Reports on phone number 01615201354
4 yearsGot a call saying they wanted to talk to our accounts team. They mentioned an issue with our gas bill but only revealed the company after I pressed. Said they were from British Gas and that the direct debit coming up would be higher than usual because the postcode they had was incorrect. They wanted me to verify our correct postcode. Bit suspicious if you ask me.British Gas4 yearsGot a call saying they were from Western Power about a problem with my smart meter. They then started telling me my bill was wrong and I'd have to pay more. Total scam, don’t believe a word they say and just end the call straight away!Western Power4 yearsI got a call from this number too, and it was definitely a scam. They asked me to verify some MPAN details - something to do with switching my energy provider, they said. I spoke to a woman with an Indian accent. The problem is, you only find out it’s dodgy after you’ve already answered the call and then look the number up using 1471 or something. Very sneaky.4 yearsI got a call from a bloke claiming to be with SSE, the gas company. He somehow had our meter numbers since we’re a business and insisted there’s a mistake on one of our bills. He was really pushy and kept asking for details, but when I told him he must have all that info on his screen already, he just kept going on trying to get more from us. We ended up hanging up, then called SSE ourselves to check and they said they never contact customers like that. Be careful out there, these scammers are everywhere. If you get a call like that, best just to hang up straight away.4 yearsHad a call from EON claiming they’d overcharged us and wanted us to verify some info. They came across as really aggressive and quite rude. We asked them to send an email instead but they just ended the call after that.EON4 yearsGot a call from a woman claiming she was with Drax energy, said she needed to confirm my mpan and even used my company’s name. I called Drax afterwards and searched the number online, turns out it’s not their number at all. Then she rang back from 07964101859 and asked for my phone numbers again, but when I questioned her, she just hung up. Do not share anything with them!Drax EnergyDrax4 yearsDidn’t bother to leave a message, which is rather irritating.4 yearsSomeone rang saying they were from British Gas, but they kept asking for loads of details they should already have. Bit fishy if you ask me.British Gas4 yearsSomeone called saying they were from EDF trying to get my info - definitely a scam, so I didn’t share anything.EDF4 yearsI had a rather dodgy call from a woman claiming to be from my energy provider. She was probing about the postcode of my business and mentioned there were some hiccups affecting everyone in my area. She wanted me to verify certain details, but I wasn’t having any of it. It looks like others are experiencing similar calls as well, with scammers impersonating various suppliers. Quite concerning, isn’t it?4 yearsI’m at my wits’ end with this persistent caller! An Indian gentleman claims to be representing British Gas, but I’m convinced it’s a scam. He simply refuses to accept my refusals and keeps trying to engage with me. I wholeheartedly advise against any conversation with him. He has this annoying habit of ringing me repeatedly! The number is 0161-520-1354, but I can't seem to ring them back either. Do yourself a favour and steer clear!British Gas4 yearsJust got a call from someone claiming to be British Gas, but pretty sure it was a scam. Be careful, they’re trying to trick you!British Gas4 yearsI had a rather dodgy call earlier, purportedly from British Gas. The moment I requested a telephone number to ring them back, he just cut off the line. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!British Gas4 yearsGot a call from someone claiming there'd been a big data breach and they needed my details. Seemed fishy, definitely some kind of scam. I flagged it up to Scottish Power anyway.Scottish Power4 yearsGot a call from 01615201354 claiming they were calling from British Gas. They gave an address that British Gas doesn’t actually cover and tried to convince me that my energy supplier is just a trading name of British Gas. Asked for a meter reading, but said their system was down so couldn’t check anything. When I said I’d only provide info once everything was confirmed and told him to call back later, he just told me to **** off and hung up on me. Definitely a scam, no doubt about it.British Gas4 yearsReceived a call from an individual purporting to represent British Gas, referencing information from my billing statement. Seems dodgy, I suspect it's a scam.British Gas4 yearsClaimed to represent British Gas Lite, but they're nothing but con artists!British Gas Lite4 yearsGot a call from this Indian bloke who seemed to know quite a bit about my account but missed some bits. He mentioned some recent meter reading, but it was for the wrong postcode. I decided to ring EDF myself after others said the same, just to be sure. Turns out, everything on my account seemed fine. Feels like a complete scam to me.4 yearsGot a call from a bloke who said his name was Zain and he was from Corona Energy. He had an Indian accent and kept going on about some issue with our bill and postcode. Proper pushy and quite rude, actually. I told him to contact our broker instead, and he didn’t take that well at all. I’m pretty sure it was a total scam.ZainCorona Energy4 yearsGot a call from a woman claiming to be from an energy firm, who actually knew our address and said there was an issue with the meter reading. When I questioned her, she got really rude. Sounds like a total scam to me.4 yearsGot a call from a guy with an Indian accent claiming to be from E.On Next about some problem with my meter reading and postcode. I wasn’t really paying attention and ended up giving him a bit of info. Now I’m wondering what he could use that for? Looks like it’s a scam though, seen loads of warnings about this kind of thing. Seriously, don’t share your details with anyone like that!4 yearsReceived a rather dubious call from a woman claiming to be affiliated with EDF, regarding some supposed complications with our postcode. She insisted that there was an outstanding account linked to our address that had never been properly closed, suggesting we could potentially be liable for energy charges going back two years! It felt like she was fishing for as much information as she could about our meter and current contract, but she already had an alarming amount of details. It was really quite unsettling how insistent and aggressive she was with her questioning. I’ve since taken the precaution of blocking the number!EDF4 yearsReceived a phone call claiming there was a gas leak, and they insisted on getting my information to access my account for verification.4 yearsGot a call from a bloke saying he was with Octopus Energy, said there was a problem with the postcode on my meter readings. Sounded a bit dodgy to me.Octopus Energy4 yearsThey’ve just rung me pretending to be from British Gas, and I’ve also had calls from 0151 and 0191 numbers in the past quarter of an hour. Quite the coincidence, isn’t it?British Gas4 yearsI’ve just received a rather puzzling call from a chap named Jake, who spoke with an Indian accent, using the number 0161 520 1354. Apparently, he’s with Total Energy. He claimed there had been some sort of glitch in their system and requested that I sift through all my invoices to verify my meter readings. I’m starting to wonder if this is some kind of scam. Does anyone have any insight into what their game might be? I did ask him directly if he was pulling a fast one, and he denied it vehemently, insisting he was no such thing. Quite the suspicious encounter, if you ask me!JakeTotal Energy4 yearsGot a call from 0161 510 1354, some bloke called Warren Dias who said he was with British Gas. He mentioned something about BG number 2022 and was asking me about my gas and electricity deals. Seemed a bit fishy to me.Warren DiasBritish Gas4 yearsGot a call from a woman saying she was with Scottish Power, but she sounded like she was from India or somewhere similar. A bit suspicious if you ask me.Scottish Power4 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Indian accent claiming she worked for Scot Power. She asked to speak to whoever handles the bills. When I pressed her for details, she mentioned there’d been a wrong meter reading because of a postcode error. Said she’d ring back later to get more info since I didn’t have it to hand. Reading other comments, it’s obvious now it’s a scam.Scot Power5 yearsI received a dodgy phone call that appeared to be from Smartest Energy. The caller, with an Indian accent, inquired about my meter number, which left me rather suspicious-surely they should possess that detail already? The woman on the line claimed there was some kind of issue with their system, but the entire conversation felt quite fishy. Just a word of caution regarding this number: steer clear, don’t get involved, and simply disconnect.Smartest Energy5 yearsHad two calls from someone claiming to be from "SSE". The first one said they received a meter reading from my "smart meter" but said it was wrong. Funny thing is, I don't even have a smart meter! Then the second call said my postcode was apparently incorrect. I told them honestly I couldn't be bothered with it. Both times, as soon as I said something, they just cut me off. If you try calling the number back, it’s not a real one. Total scam, don’t waste your time.5 yearsYesterday, I got loads of calls saying my supply number was wrong. They gave me a supply number that didn’t even line up with mine. I kept telling them it was wrong, but they didn’t listen. One bloke even passed me onto his manager but that didn’t make a difference. I tried to explain we’d need to get something sent in by post or email before moving forward. Then this morning, I got another call about the same thing. In the end, the guy just hung up on me. Proper frustrating!5 yearsGot calls from someone saying they’re with NPOWER, first from 02045201929 and now 01615201354. They don’t give up easily at all.5 yearsSome bloke said he was from SSE, but he got proper nasty when i mentioned i could hear other people shouting in the background. He kept going on about our meter number being wrong, and when i asked questions, he just told me i was clueless. Then he even threatened me with a bad death or summat. Real charm.SSE5 yearsI’m quite puzzled as to why this number hasn’t been blacklisted yet. An Indian chap has rung me up twice already, first saying he was from Eon and then, on the second occasion, pretending to be from British Gas. Quite the nuisance, I must say!Eon5 yearsI've been inundated with calls from this woman claiming to be from India. It’s incredibly frustrating! A chap rang me out of the blue, prattling on about energy contracts, and ever since, my phone hasn't stopped ringing - sometimes up to four times a day! Just a heads up, they're clearly fishing for information and trying to get hold of your meter readings. They’re pretending to represent British Gas, so best be on your guard!IndiaBritish Gas5 yearsGot a call from some bloke named Dave, said he was from "sse". He was banging on about our firm’s postcode not being right when they took the meter reading, said it might cause us to get cut off. He seemed more worried about the director blaming his lot if I didn’t hand over our supply number. After seeing the other comments about British Gas and EDF, this screams scam to me. Don’t hand over any details, definitely dodgy.DaveSSEBritish GasEDF5 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with SSE, said there was a big technical problem and they needed some info from us. It’s felt dodgy though, they’ve rung loads of times and kept asking for way too much personal stuff. I’ve ended up blocking the number now.5 yearsGot a few calls from someone saying they’re from SSE, telling me there’s some big technical problem and they need my info. Sounds dodgy to me, like a scam or something. They kept ringing and asking loads of personal stuff. I've just blocked the number now.SSE5 yearsBeware! I've had a run-in with a dodgy Indian scammer (claimed to be SSE) attempting to fish for my meter supply details. Whatever you do, don’t share any information about your supply with these blokes! They’re up to no good. Stay safe!5 yearsI received a rather perplexing call from an Indian gentleman who was quite difficult to comprehend. He claimed to be representing Drax Energy and was fishing for details that, if his inquiry were legitimate, they should already possess. He sought information about the contract conclusion date and other usage specifics, among other things. It seems there is an avalanche of scam calls originating from the 0161 code-truly frustrating!Drax Energy5 yearsSomeone called saying they were from EDF Energy, but I’m not convinced it was legit.EDF Energy5 yearsI received a phone call from a chap claiming to be affiliated with EDF, which is my current energy supplier. He mentioned my meter number and insisted that I should verify it, as they apparently had it recorded inaccurately, which might lead to distorted charges on my bill. I told him I would look into it myself and contact my account manager for clarification. Oddly enough, he hung up rather quickly after that. Just a word of caution-stay vigilant!EDF5 yearsAn Indian woman rang our office about issues with meters and some supposed inaccuracies in readings. I quickly realised it was a scam call when she mentioned the wrong energy supplier. Her accent was quite thick, and we've been inundated with similar fraudulent calls regarding 'energy meters' and 'bills that have been wrongly inflated'. This isn’t the first dodgy number we've encountered. Stay vigilant out there!5 yearsIt seems as though someone is masquerading as Green Energy today, attempting to obtain our supply number so they can sneaky-lock us into a contract without our consent. Quite the dodgy move!Green Energy5 yearsI received a rather dubious phone call from a woman purporting to be from EDF Energy. She was probing me for information regarding our electricity meter, insisting that there were discrepancies with our invoices. The urgency in her voice suggested that failure to cooperate might lead to our electricity being cut off. It felt quite suspicious, so I ended the conversation quite abruptly. Just a heads up to everyone to stay vigilant against these scam artists!EDF Energy5 yearsI received a call from a woman who said she was representing British Gas. When I probed her a bit about her affiliation with the company, she started to lose her composure. I decided it was best to end the conversation and disconnect.British Gas5 yearsI keep getting these relentless calls from Scottish Power, supposedly wanting a meter reading. They harassed me multiple times, and when I finally requested some form of verification, surprise, surprise, I never heard another word from them. Disgraceful, really!Scottish Power5 yearsI've had a right nuisance of a caller, purporting to be from British Gas. They keep mentioning some supposed technical difficulties and are after heaps of personal details. Can you believe they've tried ringing three times, each time using different lines in our finance team? Thankfully, I did my due diligence and looked up the number before sharing anything. Told him to jog on! 😊British Gas5 yearsI got a call from someone with an Indian accent saying they were calling from British Gas. They wanted to talk to whoever handles our business gas and electricity. While still on the call, I searched the number online and couldn’t find any connection to British Gas, so I just blocked them.British Gas5 yearsI received a rather dodgy phone call from someone purporting to be from British Gas, and honestly, it raised my suspicions right away. The chap on the other end, who spoke with a heavy accent, was incredibly slow and struggled with his English. He claimed there was some kind of mix-up where "the meter reader had mistakenly recorded an incorrect reading, which somehow ended up on our bill!" He started probing about our meter with some rather odd questions. It felt like absolute nonsense to me; definitely a scam!British Gas5 yearsReceived a phone call from this number, with the caller purporting to be from Scottish Power, alleging there were problems with the meter. They couldn’t provide me with any details regarding my account, which seemed rather suspicious.Scottish Power5 yearsReceived a call purporting to be from Kinex. They insisted I provide my meter number due to some supposed glitch on their side. I told them they were talking rubbish, and before I could say another word, they promptly hung up on me.Kinex5 yearsI received a rather peculiar call from a woman who stated she was representing Smartest Energy, which happens to be our electricity provider. However, she proceeded to ask some rather strange questions regarding our meter, questions that seemed rather unnecessary if she were indeed legitimate. She mentioned there were some 'issues' on their side, but frankly, it all felt rather fishy. I decided to cut the conversation short. Just a word of caution: anyone can easily look up your electricity supplier online and pose as them, so it’s wise to exercise caution, as they’re probably not who they claim to be.Submit Your Own Report (0161 520 1354)
