Phone number ☎️ 01865589156 👆 is reported as a persistent source of scam calls impersonating major UK energy providers such as British Gas, E.ON, EDF, Scottish Power, and others. Callers often claim issues with meter readings, billing errors, or account discrepancies, attempting to extract sensitive information like account details, meter numbers, contract end dates, and even bank details under the guise of resolving problems or issuing refunds. Many victims note the calls likely originate from overseas call centres, with poor or aggressive responses when challenged. Genuine energy companies do not make such unsolicited requests for personal or financial information by phone. Users are strongly advised not to share any details and to block the number, as these calls are almost certainly fraudulent attempts to gain access to private account information.

3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from our energy provider. Took them quite a while to actually say which company it was when I asked. They said there was some confusion with another property’s supply and they needed to check our MPAN number as they couldn’t enter the meter reading right. Seemed like an Indian call centre to me.3 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were from my current energy company, saying there was a problem with my meter readings that had to be fixed before they sent out the next bill. The bloke sounded a bit lost and didn’t know who exactly he should be talking to or if he’d already spoken to anyone on my end. I reckon it was just another spam call because as soon as I said I couldn’t give him the name of anyone he needed to speak with, he ended the call straight away.3 yearsSo I got a call from a woman claiming to be from Engie, asking to talk to someone in Accounts. Since we've been having trouble with our meter readings recently, I wasn’t too alarmed at first, thinking it was a follow-up from customer service. She mentioned there was a problem with the postcode on our account and asked me to check an invoice and verify our account and meter numbers. When I asked why she needed that info if she already had it, she just ended the call. Pretty sure it was a scam.Engie3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be with Octopus Energy, said there was a mistake with my meter readings and that I was due a refund. They asked for my bank details and even wanted the serial numbers on my meters. Sounded really dodgy, like they were trying to switch my energy supply without permission. Total scam, don’t hand over any info to them!Octopus Energy3 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from Corona Energy, looking for the accounts team. It sounded a bit dodgy, probably just a call centre, so I didn’t really trust it.Corona Energy3 yearsJust like others said, got a call from someone pretending to be British Gas and Eon all at once. They kept insisting I pay £2,000 or they’d switch off my meter remotely. I told the lady on the phone, who sounded like she was probably in India using some voip thing, that it was clearly a scam. She didn’t take it well and told me to f**k off.British GasE. ONIndia3 yearsJust like others said, someone called saying they worked for British Gas and EON all at once, threatening to cut the meter off if I didn't pay £2000 straight away. I was talking to a woman, probably from India using some voip system. I told her it was clearly a scam, and she told me to f*** off. Couldn't have been any more obvious!British GasEonIndia3 yearsGot a call earlier from someone saying they were with SSE, saying something was wrong with our meter number. When I asked a few questions, the first person handed me over to their “manager” who started asking about when my contract finished and stuff. They couldn’t tell me my account number either, so I said I’d hang up but they kept talking over me trying to get info. Eventually I just cut off and blocked the number. Total scam for sure.SSE3 yearsGot a call from someone who sounded like they were in a call centre overseas, claiming we owed money on an energy bill. Thing is, we rent the place and the landlord sorts that out, not us. I checked out the number and loads of people said it’s a scam. When I mentioned that to her, she just told me to f**k off. Real classy, that one.3 yearsThey claimed to be British Gas and insisted on getting my bank info to sort out a refund.British Gas3 yearsSome bloke claiming to be from Eon called me, couldn't verify my account number but said he’d provide the supply number instead. I told him that info is easy for anyone to find, and then he just cut me off! Total scammers!!!Eon3 yearsSaid they were from my energy company.4 yearsGot a ring from 01865 589156 - the person said they were calling from Eon, making sure they had the right info since they took over npower. They said they were double checking our bills to see if we’d been overcharged due to a wrong postcode. I ended up spending nearly an hour on the phone giving them details of all our contracts and bills. Felt off when they called back today, so I looked up the number and saw others had left similar warnings.Eon4 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be British Gas, telling me we’d been overcharged because a meter reader apparently put in the wrong postcode from a different company. They asked me to double-check the postcode on my bill, which was right, then said they’d fix it by not charging us for gas in February - even tho we have the actual February bill! While I was still on the call, I googled the number and found out it’s a scam. British Gas never rings you about stuff like this; they’d simply adjust any mistake on the following bill. I blocked the number straight away.British Gas4 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from British Gas, asking me to sort out payment for old bills. I handle the accounts here and we always pay through direct debit, so I didn’t give them any info. Watch out, it seemed dodgy.British Gas4 yearsThese scammers are relentless, when will someone finally put an end to these bloody nuisances?4 yearsSomeone rang me pretending to be from British Gas asking to speak to the accounts dept. Since I handle that area, I was suspicious straight away because British Gas has told me they wouldn’t call us directly. They kept going on about an issue with the last meter reading and the postcode not matching up. I just told them I knew they weren’t really from BG and I wasn’t going to give out any info. Then I politely ended the call. Definitely a con artist trying it on.British Gas4 yearsJust got a call from someone claiming they can move us to a different gas and electric deal if we give them some info. Not sure if it’s legit but sounded a bit off to me.4 yearsSomeone phoned me saying they were from BT about a refund for a wrong bill. They mentioned bits from my latest invoice but most of the info they gave was incorrect. Even though BT can see everything on their system, they kept insisting I give them more details about the bill. I told them just to send me an email with the info but the caller kept ringing back instead. Nearly certain it’s a scam, best to steer clear.BT4 yearsI just got a call from some woman with an Indian accent saying she was from Scottish Power. She knew quite a bit about my business account and told me I was being charged for my neighbour’s electricity. It’s a total rip-off. Watch out, they’re after your contract end date to pass on to others.Scottish Power4 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be from my electricity provider, but then they asked me who supplies my gas. When I asked why they needed to know, they just ended the call. The number they called from won’t even ring when I try to call back. Really dodgy behaviour.4 yearsThis number called me about some mistake with another person's meter reading. They actually knew my supply number, which was odd. They asked about my contract's finish date and yearly consumption, then suddenly wanted my gas meter readings. I found it fishy since I use a different gas provider, so I told them I'd hang up. I phoned my electricity company afterwards, and they said they never made such a call to me! They never asked for any details from me, which is probably why I didn’t catch on sooner.4 yearsA person called, wanted to talk to the accounts dept, then just hung up straight away.4 yearsThis number just rang our office claiming to be from E-on, saying we were being charged for someone else's electric. At first, I believed it, but then I got suspicious when the caller started asking for passwords.4 yearsJust got a call from someone claiming to be Kavin at EDF, asking loads of questions about my energy account. It sounded pretty legit since we’ve only just switched to EDF. Nearly fell for it but then he kept repeating the same stuff, which made me suspicious.KavinEDF4 yearsGot a call at work from someone claimin we were coverin another person’s electricity bill, which was totally confusing.4 yearsGot a dodgy call asking for my electric meter readings earlier, sounded like a total scam to me. Made me suspicious straight away, so I just hung up and didn’t give any details. Better to be safe than sorry with these sorts of calls!4 yearsMy mum is a bit hard of hearing and asked the guy to slow his speech when I called about her Scottish Power account. He got really annoyed and just hung up on her. I had a feeling it might have been a scam call anyway.Scottish Power4 yearsThis number just rang me claiming to be British Gas, but as soon as they asked for loads of info about my electricity account, I got really wary. Can anyone help me figure out if it’s legit?British Gas4 yearsSomeone rang me saying they were with EDF.EDFSubmit Your Own Report (01865 589156)
