Total scam alert!

Definitely NOT British Gas. From what I can tell it’s a real number belonging to some sort of energy deal broker, so it’s not exactly a scam. If you google the number, just ignore the usual phone checker sites and try to find actual reviews. That said, I’m not sure if the company is 100% legit or trustworthy. The deleted green-rated reviews mentioned here make me think you should be careful dealing with them.

Really glad I got through to this company right when I needed to. I was just about to renew with British Gas, but ended up switching to Smartest instead for a better deal. Big thanks!

Keeps calling non stop, even after I told em to chill. Proper irritating!

Had another caller claiming they could cut my business energy bills. Honestly, my tip for anyone dealing with these brokers is to have a close look at the fine print. The offer might seem great initially but then out of nowhere, the price jumps up because hidden in some tiny clause is something that lets them charge you more if their expenses go up. Best to deal straight with the supplier to avoid all that hassle.

I'm not so sure about those so-called 'green' posts, they seem a bit dodgy to me. If you deal with these people, you might just end up in a 'buyer beware' situation rather than something the Crown Prosecution Service would call a clear cut fraud. But really, it's their call to make.

I got a call from someone who said their name was Mel, but honestly they sounded like a bloke. They were pushing some electricity deal that was meant to be fixed price but sounded dodgy to me. On top of that, they had a mate ring me up pretending to be from the company I already use, giving me crazy high prices so theirs looked better in comparison. Wouldn’t trust this lot for a second, proper shady.
