CALLED BY A SCAM. The person said she was from GoCompare and was looking into my energy bills to find a better price (the same number called me about 3 weeks ago claiming to be from Bills Direct, which I think was fake). They attempt to connect you to "a different energy supplier" (but it’s actually the same place) and try to get your bank info. WARNING - don’t fall for it!

The bloke called himself Chris and it turned out he was the energy advisor for my region. Asked me how old I was, but there’s no way I was telling him that. They claimed to be offering a free loft check for damp and mould. So obviously, I said NO.

This number showed up on my phone flagged as a potential scam so I didn’t pick up. Looked it up here and yep, it’s definitely a scam.

Got a call about switching energy providers. They claim they can give you your energy usage for the past year, who supplies you, monthly costs and all that. They said they work for a company called Bills Direct but I reckon that name isn’t real. Definitely sounded dodgy.

Got a call earlier today but they hung up straight away so I didn’t pick up. Since it was a local number and I’m waiting on calls from a few places, I wasn’t too suspicious. They called again after 6pm which should’ve set alarm bells ringing but I didn't notice the time. They said they were from Bill Compare with some "good news" and even used my name, which annoyed me loads because I hate it when companies pass my info around without asking! Blocked them straight away.

Total sales scam, he definitely wasn’t any David. Lied straight away.. almost fooled me since he had all my family info.

Some folks called claiming to be from an energy comparison group. They had my name, my old address (even though I moved 2 years back), my previous energy company, and even the serial numbers on my gas and electric meters. How on earth did they get all that info? I never gave them any of my new details.

No idea how they even got hold of my number and name. Told them I wasn’t interested and just hung up.

This is definitely a energy ripoff.

Someone called saying they were from Octopus Energy and offered me a 6% discount on my bill.

Somebody rang claiming they could sort out the best energy rates nearby. I told them I wasn't bothered, but they kept going on. I said again I wasn’t interested and would have to end the conversation. A few days earlier I’d missed a call from 0161 7140630, probably the same lot.

Just got another one trying to fish for your info.

Just got a call from GoCompare about checking out energy deals. Told them I'd already sorted it and couldn't chat as I was busy, but then the caller called me a liar and said I was being difficult before hanging up on me. Proper nasty person, honestly! Stay clear!

Really creepy, they knew my name and phone number. When I asked where they found it, they just refused to tell me and kept calling. I ended up just hanging up.

I was checking out different electric providers to find a better rate. As soon as they started asking for my address, I just stopped responding and didn’t give them any info.

Hi manchest, can you share the address so we can sort out a dodgy deal for you?

Got a call about some energy assessment, seemed a bit dodgy to me. I just went ahead and blocked the number.
