02045869463 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 02045869463 👆 is reported as a persistent and aggressive scam operation targeting UK consumers and businesses with cold calls falsely claiming to be from well-known energy suppliers. Callers seek meter readings or attempt to arrange meter replacements, often using pressure tactics or threats, and sometimes request sensitive financial details under the guise of refunds. Despite appearing as UK numbers, the calls originate from overseas, frequently India, employing number spoofing to circumvent the Telephone Preference Service (TPS). Victims are advised not to share any information, to hang up immediately, and to block and report such calls. While TPS registration can reduce legitimate cold calls, it is ineffective against these spoofed calls, highlighting a need for regulatory and telecom industry action to prevent such fraud.

11 monthsBeware of dodgy energy brokers trying to get your bank info. Stay sharp and don’t give them any details. Just end the call and block the number straight away.11 monthsSCAM ALERT. They were askin for electric meter readings from meters I’ve never heard of! Then started saying they gotta be swapped out cause they’re not workin right.1 yearSomeone rang saying they were from Octopus asking for a meter reading. When I asked if it was a scam, they just hung up on me... so pretty sure it was dodgy.Octopus Energy1 yearThey’ve called me loads of times, super annoying and quite rude too. At one point, they even turned off my business answerphone from afar! Non-stop ringing that lasted ages... honestly, these folks have no manners at all - you'd think they’d understand that no proper business behaves like this!1 yearGot a call a few days ago from this number, very insistent and kept asking for a meter reading. Says they’re from Invernessshire, Scotland.Inverness - shireScotland1 yearSome folks suggest reporting these Indian scam calllers for breaking TPS regulations, but honestly, that’s pointless! Sure, signing up for TPS can block legit UK sales calls, but these scammers call from India and just fake their numbers to look local. Our law enforcement can’t do shit about them. The only real solution would be if phone companies changed their systems to block overseas VOIP calls from faking UK numbers. Until then, this kind of scam will keep happening.IndiaTPSUKLondon1 yearGot a call today from someone saying they were my energy supplier wanting a meter reading. They couldn’t give me any verification though, so I think it’s just a scam.1 yearJust got a call from this number, some bloke claiming he's from SSE. He said one of our meters is showing a really high reading and that it needs changing. Then he wanted to set up a time for an engineer to come round.SSE1 yearGot a call from someone asking for my meter readings. They said they were from my energy company but wouldn’t say which one. Pretty sure it’s a scam.1 yearGot a call from someone saying they were Scottish Power and wanted my meter readings. I told them my bills are always accurate and questioned why I should give out that info, saying Scottish Power usually doesn’t call for readings. After that, they just ended the call.Scottish Power1 yearThey rang saying they were from British Gas, wanted a meter reading. Surely they weren’t legit British Gas though, felt a bit off to me.British Gas1 yearThey called me saying my meter was faulty and needed swapping so they could somehow get control of my electric account. Sounded dodgy to me. If you’re not sure about calls like this, best to hang up and ring your own supplier straight away. Never hand over your details to strangers!1 yearBeware of scammers and avoid engaging with them. Make sure your phone number is registered with the Telephone Preference Service (TPS) at https://www.tpsonline.org.uk to cut down on unwanted cold calls. Once you're on the TPS, it’s illegal for companies to call you without permission, so you can also report any annoying scammers who still try. Signing up and reporting nuisance calls through the TPS is really straightforward and helps protect you from these illegal calls.Telephone Preference ServiceTPSuk1 yearTelephone scammers pretending to sell curry mixes.1 yearAbsolute scam artists, I tell ya. They call up saying they need to check your meter readings since supposedly your meter's acting up. The moment you tell them to buzz off, they suddenly get the message. Total waste of time.1 yearWatch out for scammers and avoid chatting with them. You can register your number with the TPS (Telephone Preference Service) at https://www.tpsonline.org.uk to cut down on unwanted sales calls. Once your number's on the TPS list, these dodgy cold calls become illegal. If you still get calls after registering, make sure you report them to the TPS. Signing up is straightforward, and it really helps in tackling these annoying scammers.Telephone Preference ServiceTPS1 yearGot a call saying my meter wasn’t right and they had to swap it out. They said I was owed money by my supplier but then asked for my bank info to give me the refund. Seemed a bit dodgy to me.1 yearMeters department for meter readings. SCAM SCAM SCAM1 yearGot a spam call and the auto-block kicked in. Dunno how much good it really does though.1 yearThese scammers usually call through VOIP systems based overseas, mostly from India, and fake UK phone numbers to trick people. Signing up for the TPS is a decent idea but won’t stop these fraudsters at all; reporting their numbers to TPS doesn’t make any difference. The root problem is that BT still lets number spoofing happen, so these scams - especially ones pretending to be your bank - will keep happening. I’ve raised this with my MP, and it seems OFCOM might be working on blocking foreign calls that look like they come from the UK. Fingers crossed they sort it out soon!IndiaUKTelephone Preference ServiceTPSBTOFCOM1 yearWatch out for scammers, dont answer their calls. You can put your number on the Telephone Preference Service (TPS) by going to https://www.tpsonline.org.uk. That way you will get way less dodgy sales calls and if you do get any you can easily report them through the TPS website. Its against the law for telemarketers to ring you if your number is on the TPS list. Signing up is really simple and helps stop these nuisance calls. Definitely worth doing to keep your phone quiet from scammers.Telephone Preference ServiceTPS1 yearSeeing it was an 020 number, I expected some pushy sales person. When I picked up with a short "hello," a voice with a South Asian accent replied, "Good afternoon sir, how's your day going?" I told her I was fine until she rang. She said sorry, then got quite quiet, and right when she began her sales chat, I cut her off with a farewell and hung up. No clue what the call was about, but I flagged it as suspicious because these calls usually are!Submit Your Own Report (020 4586 9463)
