Phone number ☎️ 02046286741 👆 is reported as a persistent scam number targeting businesses, often claiming to be from British Gas, E.ON, or other energy suppliers. Callers usually push to arrange meter replacements or tariff changes, despite recipients already having recent authentic installations or contracts.

1 monthGot a call from some stranger asking for my details, so I just cut them off and ended the call.1 monthThis bloke rang me up saying he was from my electric provider, but when I asked him which company exactly, he said British Gas. Trouble is, they aren’t our supplier at all, so I was dead certain it was a scam. As soon as I called him out on it, he just hung up on me.British Gas1 monthI had blocked this number ages ago, but they left a voicemail message claiming they were visiting to replace a broken meter. We’d just had proper meters fitted not long ago, and no one from their office mentioned anything about swapping it out. Honestly, they must take us for mugs.1 monthI got a call from someone named Ryan who said he was calling on behalf of E.ON about a broken smart meter they wanted to swap out at our business on 2nd July. When I asked for the meter number, he gave me one that didn’t match the one on my bill. I told him I’d have to verify with my boss and ring back. He already seemed to have our company name, address, and the owners’ names though. Before I rang E.ON myself to confirm if there was an issue, I decided to look up the number on this site. Turns out, it wasn’t legit at all!RyanE. ON2 monthsGot a call from someone claiming to be Ryan at British Gas, gave me my meter number, name and address which was kinda suspicious. When I told him I thought it was a scam, he transferred me to a "manager" who just repeated the same story about changing the meter for British Gas. I just ended the call right there.RyanBritish Gas4 monthsTell them you’ve just renewed your contract for another 5 years and prefer not to go into any details, then simply end the call.4 monthsGot a call earlier pretending to be from British Gas, definitely a scam.British Gas5 monthsGot a call from someone saying they were from British Gas, talking about fitting new meters and wanting to fix a date. When they asked for details about our meter though, it felt a bit dodgy. I decided to check the number and found warnings that it was a scam. No idea why they wanted our meter info, but I didn’t give it to them.British Gas5 monthsGot a call from someone who first claimed to be with Octopus Energy, then switched to saying they were from British Gas. They said they wanted to change our tariff. I told them we handle all that stuff through the app and that we’d get in touch with Octopus ourselves. They just hung up after that.Octopus EnergyBritish GasOctopus6 monthsGot a call from someone wanting to swap out my electric meter. Felt a bit off, so I didn’t bother. Seems like a dodgy thing to get caught up in. Guess it's best to be careful with these calls.7 monthsI got a call earlier from someone with a really thick accent, saying they needed to talk about my account with some electricity provider, though I couldn’t catch the exact name. When I told them I don’t actually have an account, the person suddenly switched and said they wanted to set one up for me! 😂 Then, when I pointed out that they’d just said I had an account, they hung up straight away. Honestly, they didn’t seem very professional at all! 😂😂8 monthsJust got another call from them, same as last time, claiming they're TotalGP. They tried to verify all my info so they could begin billing me as a Micro-Business, offering me a 7.5% discount on my bills!8 monthsGot a call from someone claiming to be from British Gas, wanting to switch our tariff and asking for the person in charge. When I asked what company he was with, he said the main provider, British Gas. I told him we don’t use British Gas here in Northern Ireland, as they don’t work here, then ended the call. They tried ringing back a couple more times after but I just ignored it.British GasNorthern Ireland8 monthsThe caller said they were from my electricity company but I could barely catch what they were saying. I ended up hanging up straight away.8 monthsThey’re part of a scam where they use loads of different numbers pretending to be British Gas. Even if you block one, they just ring you back from a number that's almost the same. Proper annoying!British Gas8 monthsIt took forever before the guy with an Indian accent actually said something. He said he was ringing about our "gas and energy account," but when I mentioned we’d made it clear to our provider how they should reach us (though I didn’t bother saying that bit), he just guessed British Gas. I told him outright that British Gas isn’t our supplier and that I wasn’t interested in chatting, then I ended the call because it was obvious he was just going to keep jibber-jabbering.British Gas8 monthsSomeone rang claiming to be from Meter Services. I told them our charity only rents the office and we don’t handle any energy bills or meters. They kept pushing, saying they had a great deal that would help us all. I ended the call there. A few hours later, the same number called again and seemed like the same person, so I just hung up straight away.Meter Services8 monthsSomeone rang me up saying they had a new SIM card to replace mine because apparently my internet and data connection was rubbish. Honestly, I have noticed my reception has been pretty poor recently, so maybe there’s some truth to it. Not sure what to think really.8 monthsYou can usually tell straight away it’s a call centre by that faint buzzing in the background, then a short pause before they launch in with a “Hi, how are you today?” Best to just drop the call right there!9 monthsGot a call from a guy claiming to be with British Gas, sounded very Indian and his accent was thick. He kept going on about switching us to some new charity tariff. They rang me about five times in just a quarter of an hour!British Gas9 monthsGot a call from an Indian guy claiming to be from some fraud investigation team, said he needed to talk to finance about utilities. Seemed a bit dodgy to me.9 monthsGot a call from someone saying they were with N Power, sounded like they had an Indian accent. Before this, they've also pretended to be from British Gas.NBritish Gas9 monthsGot a call from someone with a heavy Indian accent who barely spoke English, trying to get us to agree to some kind of authorisation so they could charge us whatever they fancied for our electricity. Not falling for that one.10 monthsGot the same call about swapping my electricity meter, said it was from Eon’s new scheme.Eon10 monthsThey were acting like they were from British Gas but then said they were from the electricity provider instead.British Gas10 monthsGot a call from an Indian bloke saying he was with Meter Replacement at OFGEM, but then changed it to National Grid, saying I needed an urgent meter swap coz mine was showing wrong readings! Then he started asking loads of personal and business details that they should already have, so I got suspicious and ended the call. Rang up Octopus, my energy supplier, and they said they hadn’t asked for any meter replacement at all. Definitely felt like a scam to me.Meter ReplacementOFGEMNational GridOctopus11 monthsHad the same scam calls repeatedly - they're pushing to "switch our meter" (Dental Practice). Honestly, these lot should just find a proper job. Absolute muppets!!11 monthsHe said he was calling to book an electric meter change, but the moment I told him to send the request by post, he just ended the call.12 monthsWe've been getting nonstop calls from a bloke with a strong accent claiming to be from British Gas, saying they've gotta come fit a smart meter at our dental office (we already have one). Then he said we've paid too much, like £370, and asked for our bank info to give us a refund.British Gas12 monthsDefinitely sounded like a call centre. The guy was trying to set up a dental appointment for his daughter but kept saying her DOB was 1920. I asked him a few times to check and he got really annoyed, demanding why I kept asking since that would make his daughter ancient. Ended up just hanging up on him.12 monthsWe got a call on this number at our company, claiming they were from EON energy and said they HAD to swap our meter right away but didn’t say why or anything! The bloke insisted on setting up a time with us. They knew our postcode and business name, but couldn’t get our actual names right. The guy spoke with a thick foreign accent and was really forceful and a bit aggressive too.EONSubmit Your Own Report (020 4628 6741)
