Reports on phone number 02046286736
3 monthsGot a call from someone saying they were with E.ON, my electric company supposedly. Bit of a laugh cos they clearly weren’t. I told them I’m actually employed by E.ON and that didn’t go down well - ended with him just dropping the call.E. ON4 monthsSome bloke rang me sayin he could help with gettin my money back from some crypto losses. I told him I never lost a penny. Then he goes on about me speaking to my solicitor. After that, he just disconnected. Total scam, no doubt about it.4 monthsI got a call last evening (22-04-2026) from someone saying they were here to update the smart meter. I asked which firm they worked for, and surprisingly, he named the correct one. Then I told him I’d already switched providers. He got quite annoyed, saying my contract runs until 2027 and threatened to report me and the company I moved to. I just chuckled, told him off, and blocked the number straight away.4 monthsGot a call from someone saying they'd be arriving on X date to swap out the electric meter. They kept going on about having the right to do it without needing anyone's permission but didn’t say which company at first. After pressing, he finally admitted he was from UK Power Networks, which isn’t our provider anyway. I just let him ramble for a bit then ended the call. Totally felt like a scam - very pushy on the phone. This is the second time they've called in two days. Definitely don’t answer or block this number.UK Power Networks4 monthsThey said they were from British Gas but I think I missed the bit about switching our tariff. I didn't hand over any bank info since I'm not the one authorised to do that. Told them I'd check the number and report it.British Gas5 monthsSome guy called saying he needed to come fix our meter, but when I asked who our energy supplier was, he had no idea. I just shut up and let him keep rambling for a bit before I eventually ended the call after he was still jabbering away a minute later.5 monthsI rang back this number after missing the call. The man claimed he was coming to replace our meter on a certain day. When I asked who he was, he said "British Gas" straight away. Then he started naming people he said owned the company and gave some company details. When I pointed out that some of the names he mentioned weren’t actually owners, he got really annoyed. Suddenly he shouted that I was the scammer and just ended the call!British Gas5 monthsSome bloke rang me claiming to be from the energy company, but his accent was so thick I couldn’t make out where he was from. When I asked him, he said he needed to swap out our meter and switch us to a new tariff. I just said thanks for the info and that I’d inform our energy broker, then ended the call. Definitely trying to scam people, no doubt. He called back 12 minutes later, and then once more about half an hour after that. Pretty annoying!5 monthsGot a call from someone saying they need to replace my meter, but it sounded fishy - definitely a scam!5 monthsGot a call from British Gas saying they need to swap my smart meter. I told them it’s already been changed, but they insisted it’s faulty and not transmitting data. Then the guy tried to book me in for a new install, asked for my phone number and even requested pictures of the meter. No way I’m sending those!British Gas6 monthsGot a call from someone pretending to be from the electric company, saying they needed to replace our meter. They gave me a date and time, asking if that worked for us. Honestly, best to just ignore these calls.6 monthsGot a call from someone saying they were British Gas, trying to set up a time to swap out my gas meter. They spoke with quite a noticeable Indian accent, though.British6 monthsGot a call supposedly from British Gas about arranging a gas meter switch, but the person speaking had a really thick Indian accent. It’s obvious they just look up businesses online, ring the main number, then ask to speak with the manager. Total scam.British Gas6 monthsSomeone just showed up sayin they needed to swap out the electric meter we got put in last year, saying it’s faulty. I rang Eon, our supplier, and they told me they hadn’t sent anyone for a replacement. Seems like it’s a total scam to me.Eon7 monthsWatch out - these calls come from India. When I said I was some big manager at Eon, they went on about how Eon pays them £500 per account they help with. Their attitude was really awful. Best to ignore them, unless you fancy a laugh or something. Eon knows exactly who you are and rings you back from various numbers.IndiaEon8 monthsThey called saying they needed to install a new meter and then asked me for my bank details.8 monthsWatch out, these are total con artists. Best to steer clear completely!8 monthsStay well clear of this number, total scam! The bloke kept swearing at me the whole time on the call. Really dodgy behaviour.9 monthsGot a call from someone with a really heavy Indian accent about changing my electric meter. They couldn’t even say my basic name right. I honestly have no clue what the scam might be if I actually went along with it.9 monthsGot a call from someone claiming to be BG, saying they were our supplier - which they definitely aren't. I mentioned my number's on the do not call list so what they're doing is illegal, but he argued they weren’t breaking any rules since supposedly they’re our supplier. Told him straight up he was just a scammer and should be embarrassed. Guess he didn’t like that much! Total scam, stay clear!BG9 monthsGot a call claiming to be from our energy company about swapping out a 'faulty' smart meter. Total scam, mates. Don’t fall for it! Avoid these dodgy callers.9 monthsThis number keeps ringing me non stop, saying they're from British Gas Lite. But when I asked them to prove it by giving me my full account number, they just couldn't. They only gave me the first three letters, “BGL”, which I reckon would be the same for all customers anyway. They kept going on about how they could save me some cash, but I told them I wasn't convinced they were legit and that I'd call British Gas Lite myself. Then they just hung up on me! What’s the point of these calls? Seems fishy to me.British Gas Lite9 monthsGot a call from someone claiming to be with British Gas Lite. They knew my address and said there’d been a change in their policy that could get our charity a better energy deal, mentioning something about a Micro tariff. They tried to put me through to their manager, but I told them I was about to join a meeting and couldn’t chat. I said I’d just check my official account online to verify instead. They kept pushing to speak with their manager and I had to say no again. Just so you know, as far as I’m aware, British Gas Lite doesn’t even have a call centre!British Gas Lite9 monthsThere’s some info out there already on the internet, along with a few bits about a charity’s electricity provider, that these scammers seem to be using to try and con people.10 monthsGot multiple calls from someone claiming to be with British Gas. I knew straight away it was dodgy and told him as much, but he just wouldn’t stop ringing. I told him to cease calling, but he kept going. Even though I was sure it was a fraud, I asked for his name and a number I could ring back. He refused, saying I couldn’t call him back if he was really from BG. I said, "that’s not how it works," and ended the chat. Later, he called again and actually gave a fake name and number for me to ring. As if I’d fall for that! He called once more today... now he’s absolutely blocked!British GasBG10 monthsThis number called me four times in just a few hours, first saying they were our supplier, then switching to the accountants. They kept asking to speak with the manager. After I hung up, they phoned back a couple of times and got quite rude. Definitely dodgy behaviour.10 monthsGot a call from someone with an Asian accent saying they were from British Gas. They wanted to switch us to some micro tariff deal but refused to send anything in writing before I agreed. Didn’t end up going anywhere because of that.British Gas11 monthsGot a call from someone speaking with a strong Indian accent asking who runs the non-profit group here, but this place is actually a Church of England church.Church of England11 monthsAbsolute scammers! So annoying! 🤬11 monthsThe person calling sounded Asian and was really nasty when I refused to give him info about my electric meter. He actually called me stupid and said I was talking rubbish. When I told him that no proper professional would speak like that, he just hung up on me. Pretty sure it’s a scam.11 monthsGot a call from someone saying they were from EDF saying our electric meter was broken and they’d be coming round on the 22nd to fix it. They said the power would be switched off during the repair. Total nonsense though, since we don’t even use EDF. They were pretty persistent trying to make me believe it.EDF12 monthsGot a call from a bloke with a strong Indian accent saying he was from British Gas. I cut him off right away since I’ve had those dodgy calls before, just never from that particular number. He rang again later and left a voicemail, which I just deleted straight away. I’ve now blocked the number. Checked with British Gas too, and they said they never called me.British Gas12 monthsSo this bloke called me saying he was from the electricity company. I asked if it was Eon and he confirmed it. He spoke with a strong Indian accent and then tried to put me through to his manager. I ended the call straight away, but he kept ringing back like 5 times before I finally blocked the number. Just a heads up to everyone!Eon12 monthsSupposedly claiming to be from the main number of British Gas. Best to just block the call and not talk to them.British GasBest1 yearThey said they were from BT and needed to come round to fit a new meter, but it didn’t seem legit at all.BTSubmit Your Own Report (020 4628 6736)
