01905570960 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01905570960 👆 is reported as a persistent scam operation where callers impersonate various UK energy suppliers such as British Gas, EDF, E.ON, Octopus, and SSE. The scammers often use strong Indian accents and provide some accurate customer details to sound credible, but their aim is to extract sensitive information like meter details, account numbers, or email addresses. They frequently claim there are billing or meter reading errors linked to incorrect postcodes, attempting to confuse and pressure recipients. Calls are marked by aggressive or rude behaviour when questioned and involve requests to confirm invoice or meter data. Recipients are strongly advised not to engage, avoid sharing personal or account details, and report or block the numbers immediately to protect themselves.

Someone called saying they were from British Gas Lite, but had a really thick Indian accent. When I started asking why they were calling, they got pretty pushy! They phoned again the next day from another number, but I can’t remember it now. I told them exactly what I thought about their approach and guess what, they just cut me off! Bit cheeky if you ask me :)

Got a call from someone saying they were from Octopus, our energy company, asking about meter readings. The caller had a really strong Indian accent, which seemed odd to me. I told them Octopus call centres are based in the UK, so they must be a scam. After that, they just said alright and hung up. I only found out about this because I double-checked with Octopus before and added a password to our account for security in case of calls like this!

I told him to send me an email explaining it - but of course he said they don’t have my email (which they definitely do!) and anyway their email is “down” today.

+44 1905 570960 just rang me, claimed to be Scottish Power and mentioned a company name I recognised from back when I had that number about 7 years ago. When I asked what they wanted and why, they immediately dropped the call. The voice sounded like it was from an Asian call centre. What’s worrying is, how on earth did they get such accurate info - my name, number, and address all matched up? Has Scottish Power been hacked or sold customer details to some dodgy call centre in India?

DON'T FALL FOR IT! Got a call from a bloke with an Asian accent saying he was from Pozitive Energy. He claimed they missed reading our meter last month and that our bill was overdue. Luckily, I manage the utilities for our firm and I know our meter is read every half hour because our consumption is pretty high! They’re just after your details and want you to agree to switch to them as your provider. Stay alert!

Got a call from someone saying they were with Octopus Energy, sounded like they had a thick Indian accent. They kept going on about two meters registered to the same place and mentioned sending an email with a serial number. They did know some of my details like the supplier and address, so I let the call go on for a bit since we just had a smart meter installed recently. While still on the call, I looked up the number and found this site calling it a scam, so I hung up straight away. Hopefully others will spot it and hang up too.

They keep ringing me like 3 or 4 times a week, each time saying they’re from a different firm like British Gas, Eon, SSE, and one other I can't recall. This has been happening for ages with different people calling. They say there's a problem with the billing from our meter but that’s not right at all because we’ve had no trouble with bills and our current supplier says they don’t know anything about it.

Got a phone call from an Indian call centre pretending they were from the electricity section of our energy company. Told them they were lying and ended the call. You can always tell them apart - when you pick up there’s silence for a moment, then you hear the busy noise of a call centre, and then usually an Indian accent asking how you are. How am I? I’d be better off if I didn’t have to put up with annoying scam calls like this. My go-to move is simple: don’t get drawn in, just hang up straight away.

They keep ringing up asking for our account and meter details. They’re really persistent and nearly come across as legit. But they don’t actually know anything about our account.

A bloke with an Asian accent rang up saying he was from EON-Next, talking about our business contract. I had to tell him we switched from EON back in March 2023, which seemed to throw him off a bit. I didn’t say who we're with now - probably a good call. Feels like they just pick whatever energy firm they reckon you’re with, hoping to catch you out. Sometimes it works, other times not.

This bloke "Jason" rings up pretending he's from British Gas, asking loads of personal stuff. Heard he's been busted for scamming before but still keeps phoning. When you catch him out, he ends the chat by saying "shut up mother fucker", really nasty bloke.

Got a call from some con artists talking nonsense about my electric meter. As soon as I ended the call, they rang right back to carry on their ridiculous chat. If they put half the effort they use bugging folks into doing a proper job, they’d be swimming in cash!

Got a call asking to talk to the account owner, apparently from someone who spoke to me yesterday - but I haven’t talked to anyone about any account. Then the caller claimed to be from EDF. I just ended the call. He phoned again, so I told him off (using slightly stronger words). Later, I looked up the number on Google and found this thread.

Some bloke with an Indian accent said he was from BG, so I just ended the call and blocked the number. You can usually tell because there’s a weird pause before they start talking when you answer. Total scam, no doubt about it.

A guy with a strong accent rang me up pretending to be from my energy supplier. He said my meter number was connected to the wrong address and asked me to look at my bill. When I told him it wasn’t a good time, he got a bit insistent and kept saying it was crucial I followed his instructions. When I asked which company he actually worked for, he just said "all the suppliers".

Got a call on our work line from 01905570960, bloke said he was from EON. Did the typical sales patter then just dropped the call. He kept buzzing non stop and when we finally picked up again the guy shouted "SHUT UP MOTHERF*****" and slammed the phone down. Lovely chap.

To help stop scams and dodgy calls, everyone should report any suspicious calls. Just text the number and call info to 7726. When loads of people do this, it sets off a warning for that number across all the phone networks. Don’t bother reporting genuine business calls though. Scam texts can also be sent straight to 7726. For scam emails or screenshots of dodgy texts with weird links or attachments, send them to '[email protected]'. If you think someone’s got hold of your bank info, tell your bank straight away and report it to the police on 03001232040.

Got a call from someone saying he's 'Steve' at EON Next, number 01905 570960, claiming my gas contract needs renewing. I told him that EON usually sends letters, not cold calls, and he kept talking over me insisting he was "definitely" from EON. I just ended the call. The companies who supply these phone numbers really should be held accountable when scammers are using them, it’s about time.

So today we got called again, like the fifth time now, and they said they were from BG. But when I asked if they really were British Gas, the guy just said their system shows they are or something. Sounds like a proper scam script to me. Luckily, we checked the number the very first time and saw it was actually WAVECREST - definitely some dodgy scam going on.

Got a call from someone saying they were with British Gas and wanted my supply ref. Seriously, don’t give out any info to these people! They seemed totally clueless when I questioned them. After I pushed back a bit, they just ended the call. Like others have said, this definitely feels like one of those billing scams. It’s so frustrating that BT or whoever’s in charge can’t just block all these scam calls once and for all.

Someone called me saying they were from UGP regarding a meter reading, but the postcode they gave was wrong, which made me worry I'd end up with the wrong bill. They seemed to know some stuff about the meter number and the right address already. They wanted to send me a link by email and asked for my email address, but when I refused since they already had it, they just hung up. Up to that moment, the call felt pretty convincing because they knew some accurate details.

Got a call from 01905 570960 today asking for "the account holder" regarding our business gas with British Gas. The caller didn’t have a specific name to talk to but mentioned some details that seemed legit. The funny thing is, he just had the wrong supplier completely!

We got a call about some issue with our meter readings, and they wanted our account info as well. Felt dodgy to us, so we told them we’d ring our supplier ourselves. After checking out all the comments here, it’s obvious it’s a scam, so we ain’t falling for it!

Got a call from a guy with an Indian accent calling himself Richard, claiming SSE had overcharged us for our business gas. Thing is, we’re not even customers of SSE. Plus, we only have electricity here, no gas at all. Also, the address he was talking about is where we lived over two years ago - we moved ages ago! I told him he was talking rubbish and ended the call. But he’s called back five times in just one hour and was quite cheeky about it.

Got a call from 01905 570960, the guy claimed to be from EDF. Actually, he rang yesterday from another number which I blocked straight away. Today he wanted to talk to our accounts payable about an EDF account. I told him no one was in, and then he said there’s been odd gas usage on our account and wanted me to pull up the invoice so he could fix some info. Problem is, we only get electricity, no gas. I told him I already checked with EDF after his earlier call and all’s well. Blocked the number once more.

So this bloke rang me a few times this week, told me his name was Scott Gibson - which is a bit hard to swallow coming from an Indian accent! Got three calls from him, and honestly, it felt like harassment. Cheers for the heads-up about this dodgy caller, I’ve gone ahead and blocked him now.

Got a call from someone saying they were from Eon-Next. They knew loads of things right, like the names of the directors and when my contract ends, which made me think it might be legit at first. But then they started pushing hard, and when I mentioned I wasn’t interested in talking about my contract, they got quite rude, saying I’d automatically be renewed with a 20% increase. They even had the nerve to accuse me of wasting their time! Told them firmly to stop with the nonsense and quit trying to scam folks. I’ve blocked the number now. Watch out for these types!
