01706595263 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01706595263 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance associated with energy-related scams targeting both residential and commercial contacts. Callers claim to represent utility or meter registration authorities, often citing emergencies or urgent rate changes, attempting to extract personal or business information and promote supplier switches. The callers display knowledge of recipients' details but have no legitimate affiliation. Victims report repeated calls from varied numbers, frequent hang-ups, and aggressive pressure tactics. Many advise against engagement, recommend blocking the number immediately, and caution that no genuine utility body conducts unsolicited verifications in this manner. Users emphasise vigilance and verify through official channels to avoid falling victim to these well-coordinated fraudulent schemes.
Reports on phone number 01706595263
4 yearsI received an unwelcome call from someone claiming to be from a ratings firm, asking which utility provider we were registered with at our address. Not entirely sure if it was a legitimate inquiry or some sort of scam. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!4 yearsNo doubt at all, it's totally a scam!4 yearsI kept getting a busy tone when I attempted to return the call to this number.4 yearsIt seems I've come across a rather dodgy energy meter scheme.4 yearsTotal scam, this caller was spouting lies about my electricity supply. Just ended the call and blocked the number straight away.4 yearsGot loads of calls today from so-called energy company reps, all saying it’s about some commercial property swap. I reckon I’ve had about 20 different numbers ring me, all pushing for my info right away and promising to sort emergency rates on my business place. Total scam if you ask me.4 yearsEnergy Fraud - Steer Clear!4 yearsI got calls from someone claiming to be the electric company, and they rang me like 5 times in just ten minutes. Really annoying!4 yearsThey always ring but never bother to leave a message. It's so annoying.4 yearsGot a call from someone trying to scam me!4 yearsif I get any calls about gas, electricity or other utilities i just say they should contact my head office. That seems to shut them up every time.4 yearsA chap rang me up claiming he was from the utilities office, inquiring about the amount I fork out for my electricity each month. Strange, isn’t it?5 yearsOur store keeps getting calls from these people saying we reported being charged too much, but we’ve never heard of them before.5 yearsI got a call from 01706 595263 and they sounded totally legit! They had my name, the address of the business and even knew we’d just moved into that place. They asked me to send pictures of the gas and electric meters, saying it was because we were on some emergency tariff. Luckily, it was only after checking with our landlord that I figured out it was a scam.5 yearsI've had about ten calls already today, all from different numbers but all from the same area. I blocked the earlier ones, but this latest one rang for the electric company. I just ignored it and didn't answer, so they ended the call.5 yearsKept ringing but every time they answered, it was just silence and then they hung up.5 yearsI haven't the faintest idea where they sourced their information from. It's rather peculiar, to be honest. They asserted they were representing the meter registration authority, yet when I pressed them about my energy supplier, they were completely stumped. Quite baffling if you ask me!5 yearsThe call went straight to voicemail and I could hear some noises in the background but nobody said anything. I don't recognise the number, and since they have no reason to be calling me, I’m guessing it’s either a scam or one of those call centres just going through lists.5 yearsi submitted a form about some rates and early next day my phone blew up with calls. loads of them claimed they had info on a supposed new business lease at my place, which is false, and there’s trouble with the electric connection or something. the calls came from all sorts of area codes. this is like the third ring today alone.5 yearsI’m curious about the owner of this phone number as I've been getting calls related to my electricity and gas meter. Any insights would be greatly appreciated!5 yearsReceived a call on our business line from someone claiming to represent the so-called 'national meter registration authority'. Quite frankly, this organisation appears to be a figment of their imagination. I informed them that we weren’t keen on changing our energy provider and promptly ended the conversation. To my surprise, they rang again straight away. I've subsequently blocked their number. It seems they're targeting small enterprises in a rather unscrupulous manner, attempting to lure them into switching suppliers under false pretenses. Best to steer clear of these charlatans!5 yearsI’ve received a staggering 11 calls within just 24 hours! It’s downright baffling that they even rang some of my colleagues-I've no idea how they got their numbers! Time to hit that block button repeatedly!5 yearsReceived a call from someone purporting to represent the utilities department, attempting to persuade me to transition to their so-called “more economical” temporary rates. They were incredibly insistent and quite rude too. When I mentioned needing to discuss it with someone else first, they abruptly ended the call before I could even finish my sentence. Best to steer clear of these folks!Submit Your Own Report (01706 595263)
