In the past four days, I’ve been getting calls from this number about six times, but they never say anything or leave a voicemail. I’ve just gone ahead and blocked it now.

Got a message from OVO about installing a smart meter, but then they sent me another email from an official OVO account to follow up. Bit strange, not sure if it’s legit or not.

Got a call from Ovo Energy about updating my gas and electric meters to smart ones. It was a bit odd because the number was from up north and I didn’t know it, but turns out that’s where their smart meter department is based. I called back and sorted an appointment for the following week. Pretty sure it’s all legit!

Got a call from OVO Energy asking if they could come and fit a meter at my house. Bit surprise as I wasn’t expecting it, but they were pretty polite about it. Didn’t really have time to chat, so just told them to leave a note or something if they’re coming. Anyone else had this happen?

Got a call on my phone from 01914294417. There was a lot of noise like an office in the background, so I figured it was a call centre. A guy speaking with an Indian accent said he was from OVO Energy and was pushing me to get a smart meter installed. I told him I wasn’t interested and explained my reasons, which seemed to make him quit after a bit. My phone showed the number as coming from South Shields, England.

Got a missed call from this number and checked the comments - looks like it’s a WiFi scam, not anything to do with ovoid energy. Definitely don’t ring back if you get a call from it! Read what others have said to be sure.

The phone rang a few times and then went dead - looks like they’re hoping folks will ring them back and get charged loads per minute? (Just a hunch!) Anyway, I’ve added this number to my block list without a second thought. Your app is super handy, cheers for that ❤️👵🏻🇬🇧

I had a call from someone claiming to be from OVO Energy about putting in a smart meter. They mentioned my name straight away and said I qualified for one if I wanted it. They didn't ask for any personal details or act like the typical scam calls I get. Still, I’d keep an eye out just to be safe.

I wasn’t around when this number rang on my backup mobile that I’ve been using like a home phone since I ditched my BT landline and broadband. I’ve only shared the number with a few people, so they probably got it from the SIM card seller, ASDA. I’ll post an update if they call again.

Some random number rang me earlier and the person never said who they were. Honestly, no clue who it might be.

I’m gonna watch out for more calls from that number now.
