Had a bunch of missed calls from this number, looked it up and it said Octopus Energy.

Not long after I’d spoken nicely to someone from Scottish Gas, I got another call from this same number. It was clearly a call centre on the other end, and I wasn’t too happy this time. I told them pretty firmly to stop calling me and to remove me from their calling list!
