20 daysThe 0161 850 7566 number really belongs to EDF for their business. But beware, scammers can fake this number using "spoofing" tricks to make it look like it's them calling when it's not EDF at all. Just be careful. Never give out your passwords, bank info, or agree to anything based just on the number you see. If you feel something’s off, hang up and ring EDF directly using the contact info on their website or your bill. Keep in mind, the number showing on your phone can be faked, so don’t trust it completely to know who’s calling.EDF3 monthsThis number keeps calling me, saying they're from EDF. Even after I told them we ain't interested, they keep hassling us. They keep going on about how our contract's expired and that we have to sign up again. Proper annoying!EDF9 monthsSame story as lots of others here. Got a bloke on the phone claiming he’s with Eon Next, trying to trick me into renewing my energy deal. Told him a bunch of times I’m not interested but he just wouldn’t stop calling. On the last call, he actually said he’d received complaints saying I was the one hanging up! What a joke.Eon Next9 monthsSteer clear of this one! Keeps ringing me claiming to be from Eon and uses loads of different numbers, this one included. Proper nasty and insulting every time.9 monthsThis guy keeps ringing me up loads of times every day, saying he's from EDF about my contract renewal. I've told him over and over he’s not actually from EDF, but he just won’t stop! Proper rude bloke with a thick accent. It’s really annoying!EDF11 monthsThey were really aggressive and rude, insisting I renew right away because apparently the renewal period is exactly one year, no more. They also threatened to cancel my contract straight away if I didn’t agree. SCAM ALERT - stay well clear of these people!1 yearThis number kept calling me over and over, like 15 times in just thirty minutes! I told whoever it was that I wasn't interested but they got really nasty with me. Had no choice but to block it in the end!1 yearGot a call saying they were from EDF, but when I said no thanks, they started swearing and warned they’d cut off our supply if we didn’t listen. They even called back just to keep being rude. If that really was EDF, they’ve got a terrible way of dealing with customers over the phone.EDF1 yearHad a smart meter fitting scheduled with EDF but the appointment got cancelled at the last minute. Really frustrating to keep rearranging and hearing nothing clear about when they’ll reschedule. Not what I expected from them!EDF1 yearGot a call from EDF saying my contract needs renewing, but the caller was really pushy and kept hassling me even after I explained I couldn’t talk and would speak to my EDF rep instead. I had to hang up a few times cause he just kept calling back. I’ve reported these annoying calls to EDF now, as it’s getting a bit much.EDF1 yearWatch out! Got a call from someone claiming to be my energy supplier but turns out they were just a dodgy energy broker trying to scam me. Don’t trust these calls!1 yearThis isn’t EDF at all, it’s just a dodgy energy broker trying to scam you. Don’t fall for it. Any good reviews you see about them are probably fake. Just hang up straight away and make sure to block their number!1 yearGot calls from someone pretending to be EDF. Even though the number looked legit, EDF themselves told me it wasn’t their call. Don’t share any details with them, they probably have some of your info already but don’t fall for it. The person on the other end got rude and pushy, which definitely isn’t how EDF behave. They rang me around 20 times yesterday and nearly 7 times just this morning.EDF1 yearGot a call from someone called Ash at EDF Energy trying to chat about my energy deal with EON, even though my contract doesn’t end for a whole year. I told him to stop and blocked the number.AshEDF EnergyEON1 yearReally cheeky call.1 yearHad a call from Jerry at EDF and honestly, he was really helpful! Sorting out my energy stuff always felt overwhelming before, but he made it so simple. If you need help, I’d definitely say give him a shout!JerryEDF1 yearI got through to an agent called David, and honestly, he was brilliant. Super patient and got what I needed right away.
