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 yearsGot a call from a woman claiming to represent my energy company. She kept asking about my business's postcode, saying there were problems affecting everyone in that area. She wanted me to verify some details but I didn’t give anything away. Looks like plenty of others have had something similar, but with people pretending to be from different energy providers.4 yearsThis bloke keeps ringing me up, says he’s from British Gas or something but I reckon it’s a right scam. He won’t stop pestering and doesn’t listen when I tell him to bugger off. He keeps calling from 0161-520-1354 but I can’t ring him back. Best just ignore the calls and don’t get dragged into any chat with him.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 yearsGot a call from a man with an Indian accent who said he was from British Gas, referencing some info from our bill. Definitely a scam.British Gas4 yearsClaimed to be from British Gas Lite but turned out they were just fraudsters.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 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Indian accent saying she was from our energy supplier EDF. She said there was a problem with the postcode on our account and that the old account linked to our address hadn’t been closed properly, and apparently we might owe for two years worth of energy. She kept probing for details about our meter and tariff, even though she seemed to know quite a lot already - no clue where she got that from. She was pretty insistent and kept phoning asking the same questions. Had to block the number eventually!EDF4 yearsGot a phone call from someone saying there was a gas leak and they needed my info to access the system and have a look. Seemed a bit dodgy to me.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 yearsIn the past quarter of an hour I've had calls from a 0191 and 0151, both pretending to be British Gas. Bit suspicious if you ask me.British Gas4 yearsGot a call from a bloke called Jake, sounded Indian, on 0161 520 1354. He said he was from Total Energy and claimed there was some kind of system glitch. He asked me to double-check all my bills and meter readings. Feels a bit fishy to me - anyone else had this? What’s the scam here, does anyone know what they’re after? I told him he should already have all that info and asked straight if he was a scammer. He quickly denied it, said “Not at all, ma’am.” Still, not too sure I trust it.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 yearsHow come this number hasn’t been blocked yet? I’ve had a couple of calls from an Indian bloke - first he said he was from Eon, then later he claimed to be with British Gas. Proper annoying!Eon5 yearsHad this woman from India ringing me non stop, talking about switching my energy deal or something. It started with just one call from some bloke, now they’re phoning me up like four times every single day! Watch out, they’re probably just after your meter readings. They keep saying they’re calling from British Gas but I’m not convinced at all. Total pain.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 yearsWatch out, had a caller from India claiming to be SSE trying to grab meter supply details from me. Really dodgy. Never share your supply info with anyone over the phone like that!5 yearsGot a call from this Indian gentleman, really struggled to catch what he was saying. Claimed to be from Drax energy and wanted details about my contract and usage. If he was legit, surely they’d have that info already? Loads of scammy calls popping up with 0161 numbers lately!Drax Energy5 yearsSomeone called saying they were from EDF Energy, but I’m not convinced it was legit.EDF Energy5 yearsGot a call from a bloke saying he was with EDF, which is actually my provider. He claimed there was a mistake with my meter number and that I might end up paying wrong amounts. I told him I'd double-check it myself and call my account rep directly. He didn't wait around and just hung up. Watch out for these types!EDF5 yearsGot a call at work from a woman with a thick Indian accent talking about meter readings being wrong. She mentioned an energy supplier that we don’t even use, so it was clear it was a scam. We’ve been getting loads of these scam calls about energy meters and bills that supposedly have mistakes. This isn’t the first dodgy number that’s contacted us. Watch out, people, these scams are getting pretty common.5 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Gree Energy, asking for our supply number to push us into an agreement we never agreed to. Proper dodgy behaviour, if you ask me.Green Energy5 yearsGot a call from a woman saying she worked for EDF Energy, asking loads of questions about our meter. She said there was a problem with the bills we’d received and warned if I didn’t answer her she’d cut off our power. The call finished pretty quickly after that. Watch out for these kinds of scams, they’re sneaky!EDF Energy5 yearsA woman with an Indian accent called saying she was from British Gas. When I asked her to confirm which company she represented, she got all confused and started fumbling over her words. I just ended the call right there.British Gas5 yearsGot calls from Scottish Power claiming they needed my meter reading, kept bugging me loads. Eventually asked them to prove they were legit, and surprise, no reply at all.Scottish Power5 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be British Gas, saying there’s a problem with our account and asking loads of personal details. This bloke has actually phoned us three times, ringing different numbers in our finance team each time. Lucky I looked up the number first and told him to do one!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 yearsGot a call from some bloke saying he was from British Gas. His English was really poor and he spoke super slowly. He told me their meter reader had apparently taken the wrong reading and stuck it on our bill or something like that. Then he started asking weird questions about our meter. Felt dodgy, definitely a scam call if you ask me.British Gas5 yearsThis number rang me saying they were from Scottish Power, telling me there was a problem with my meter. When I asked for my account details, they couldn’t provide any. Getting a bit suspicious about it all.Scottish Power5 yearsSome bloke said he was from Kinex and wanted my meter number, said there was some problem with their system. I told him he was talking rubbish and then he just cut me off.Kinex5 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Indian accent saying she was from Smartest Energy, which is actually our electricity provider. She started asking weird stuff about the meter readings that she should already have from her system if she was legit. Claimed they were facing some 'problems' on their side. I just hung up. Just a heads up, anyone can easily check online who your supplier is and pretend to be them, so watch out because it’s probably a scam.Submit Your Own Report (0161 520 1354)
