01823337593 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01823337593 👆 is reported as a scam originating from an overseas call centre, frequently impersonating the renewals department of major energy suppliers such as British Gas. Call recipients, often businesses, report persistent calls from individuals with strong accents using pressure tactics to obtain personal, contract, and banking details. Multiple calls in quick succession are common, with callers refusing to accept that the company is not the current supplier. The number is unrelated to the legitimate business it supposedly represents and is associated with fraud. Victims advise ignoring or blocking the number and cautioning others not to share any information. Telecommunications providers are aware but have yet to fully resolve the issue. Vigilance and refusal to engage with these calls are strongly recommended.

hi there, this is actually my phone number and somehow an overseas call centre has hijacked it. people get calls from the uk showing this number, but it's definitely a scam. 01823 337 593 is our shop in taunton, somerset, a sandwich place. bt are trying to sort it out, but no solution yet. even tho this has nothing to do with us or our business, i’m really sorry this is causing trouble for everyone. we’ve had loads of calls from folks saying we rang them, so i get how frustrating this is. ben @ loafers

Got a call from 01823-337593, someone asking to speak to the business owner. I asked what it was about, and he mentioned something about electricity. When I asked if we’d signed up with them, he said no. So I told him we don’t accept calls like that, and he just ended the call.

Got a call from someone claiming to be from British Gas renewals. I told the bloke we’re not customers with them, but he kept saying otherwise. I ended the call by asking him not to ring again.

Had a call from someone named John, sounded like he had quite a thick Indian accent and said he was from British Gas. Told him straight away not to ring again, had to get a bit louder for him to actually hear me.

This is like the fifth or maybe sixth time in just a couple days Ive had a call from the ‘renewals team’ supposedly from my ‘current energy provider.’ Most times they say British Gas, but sometimes they switch it up with other big energy companies. When they ask for info, I just dont let them stick around long enough to figure out what they want. They kind of hint they’ll keep ringing until they get the details they’re after. Proper annoying!

He called me about four times straight, speaking with a pretty thick Indian accent. Kept asking to speak to the manager. Honestly, sounded like he was calling from a busy market or something.

Heard from someone with an Indian accent claiming to be from the "renewals department" - honestly, the smartest thing you can do is just disconnect!

Some guy with an Indian accent rang up sayin he was from British Gas’ “renewals department”. When I mentioned we don’t get gas from them, he switched to sayin it was about electricity instead. I kept telling him they weren’t our electricity supplier but he kept insisting otherwise. After a few rounds of me saying no, he just stopped the call. Proper waste of my time.

some bloke with a really thick indian accent called me up and asked if i was the manager. when i asked what it was about, he said he was from british gas wanting to renew our gas deal. i told him we dont even have gas or use them as a supplier, and he just ended the call.

I got a call from a lady who claimed it was the renewal period and she had some questions about our contract. She insisted she worked for British Gas’s renewal team. Since we’re already sorting out a disagreement with British Gas, I asked her for a reference number. Suddenly, a bloke took over the call and he clearly had no clue about what we’d been discussing with British Gas. I just hung up. Watch out, we’ve fallen victim to a scam like this before and we’re still trying to fix it.

Got a call from someone with a really thick Indian accent claiming they supply my electricity. He was a bit all over the place, couldn’t decide if he was trying to renew or cancel my contract. Sounded quite polite though, so maybe it’s his first time trying to scam folks.

Got a call from someone saying they were with the “renewal team at British Gas,” which they said handles my electricity. The guy had a heavy Indian accent and I had to ask him to say it again a couple of times. When I pointed out that British Gas doesn't actually provide my electricity, he tried to get me to tell him who does, saying he needed to update his records. I told him that was private and if he was legit, he’d already have that info. After that, he just said “Alright, have a good day!” and hung up. Pretty polite, if it was a scam.
