11 monthsGot a call from someone claiming to be from the energy company. They first said they worked for British Gas, kept repeating it over and over. Then suddenly, mid-conversation, they switched to saying they were from EDF Energy, acting like they never mentioned British Gas at all. Kept asking for info about my electricity meter. Felt dodgy, definitely some sort of scam.British GasEDF EnergyKept11 monthsGot a call from someone named Mohammed claiming to be with British Gas. He told me our meter wasn’t working right and that we were being charged the highest rate. Felt a bit dodgy, especially since it was a Saturday morning call and we actually don’t have British Gas for our billing. Something about it didn’t sit well with me.MohammedBritish Gas12 monthsWatch out for those cheeky scammers, they have no shame and are really rude!1 yearI got a call from someone with a foreign accent, claiming to be from an energy company.
