Reports on phone number 01918162955
4 yearsIt seems like I've received calls from a supposed outfit named SO Energy. They’re ringing up to ask about my existing energy plan, claiming they can provide a superior deal. However, I suspect this is a scam; these folks really seem clueless when it comes to anything energy-related.SO Energy4 yearsGot a random text from 07860041286 asking me to finish my quote, but I have no idea who they are.5 yearsGot a cold caller at me door today, trying to get me to call for an energy saving quote. Didn’t bother ringing the number they gave, and the lady just walked away. Seems dodgy to me, probably a scam.5 yearsGot a call from someone about my gas and electric, said I should ring a particular number but I haven’t bothered doing it.5 yearsHad a young woman from Ireland knock on my door yesterday, claiming she wanted to help me sort out my energy provider. She asked for some personal info so she could send a text to my phone. Then she took my phone and started calling the energy company herself with me there. Not sure if it’s some kind of scam but I’m worried since she’s got my details now. Anyone know what I should do?Ireland5 yearsJust to add on from my earlier post about the door-to-door cold caller, try googling [f]i#]60secchallenge[###. If you scroll down about halfway through, you'll spot a list of firms (partners and sponsors) that you'll be agreeing to share your personal details with. If you’re not keen on getting a bunch of spam emails and texts, steer well clear of calling 01918162955.Google5 yearsHad a guy knock on my door chatting about energy providers and the price hikes you see all over the news these days. He asked for my mobile and then texted me telling me to call some 0191 number to ‘finalise your quote’. I’m fine doing my own digging and satisfied with who I’ve got now, so there’s no way I’m ringing that number.5 yearsMy elderly dad, who’s 88, got hassled by a cold caller trying to push him into switching over to edb energy. They were quite insistent, wanting him to phone a number to make the change.EDB Energy5 yearsI received a message after a couple of individuals knocked on my door, claiming to represent an energy firm that could secure me a fixed rate on my energy bills, supposedly to help dodge the soaring energy prices. They seemed rather put out when I expressed a desire to do a bit more research before making any commitments, as they were pressing for a quick decision. Since I couldn't ascertain their authenticity, I declined their offer and ended the chat right there.5 yearsI had a visitor at my doorstep today-Rebecca from Supply Switch. She mentioned that I should ring a particular number after receiving a text message to discuss pricing for switching providers. Unfortunately, I accidentally disconnected the call and haven’t heard from them since. While I’m keen on getting a quote, it’s not a major issue if they don’t return my call.RebeccaSupply Switch5 yearsIt's truly baffling how these chaps keep ringing you up after some door-to-door salesperson has rambled on about slashing your gas and electric bills. Honestly, when you politely decline their offer to assess your situation, they just can’t take a hint! It feels like they just won't let it drop, harping on endlessly as if your 'not interested' isn’t good enough for them.5 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from an energy firm, asking for my address and bank info. Felt really dodgy, so I didn’t give anything. Sounds like a total scam to me! Keep your details safe, folks.5 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from my energy supplier, they were asking for my bank info and address. Seemed a bit dodgy to me, so I didn’t give anything out. Definitely felt like a scam, be careful!5 yearsSo I got a call from this Geordie bloke while a young Irish woman was there with me. They were pushing hard for me to think about changing over. They said I'd get an email with all the info within an hour, but nothing turned up. When I tried ringing them back later, it just went straight to voicemail. Feels like a complete scam to me.IrelandGeordie5 yearsSwitched over to ESB recently for my gas and electric, and it’s been a proper saving of about fifty quid every month. If you reckon your bills are a bit steep, it’s defo worth thinking about making the change.ESB5 yearsNo need to stress, it’s just a company that supplies gas and electricity.5 yearsBe careful, they try to rush you into switching your provider and ask for your bank info for a direct debit. Definitely watch out for that.5 yearsI had an intriguing encounter the other day - a chap named Finlay popped round claiming to be from the Edinburgh office of an energy company. He was quite the smooth talker, saying he was checking on local energy services due to a flurry of complaints from the folks nearby. I quickly realised it was just a ruse to try and get me to agree to a quote. Quite the cheeky tactic, if you ask me!FinlayEdinburgh5 yearsI had a rather unwelcome visit from a chap named Ryan regarding energy issues in our neighbourhood. When he suggested dropping by, I politely declined. Is there a mobile number available for me to opt out of these unsolicited calls?Ryan5 yearsReceived a call from someone trying to peddle energy services.Submit Your Own Report (0191 816 2955)
