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 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 received a call from someone claiming to represent OVO Energy regarding the installation of a smart meter. He addressed me by name and mentioned that I qualify for one if I'm keen on getting it set up. The chap seemed genuine and didn’t probe for any personal details, which is a bit unusual in these sorts of calls. Still, I’d recommend exercising caution, just to be on the safe side!

Today, I got a call from a number I didn't recognise, and naturally, I let it ring. I've no acquaintances in South Shields, so why would I pick up? This is actually the second time they've attempted to contact me-had a missed call from them two days prior. Rest assured, I shan't be answering these calls ever!

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.
