6 yearsToday I've been getting calls from someone overseas who says they're with the "Energy Compliance Ministry" or something like that. They keep ringing, real pushy! Honestly, it’s kinda funny how obvious the scam is but they just don’t give up.Ministry of Energy Compliance6 yearsHey everyone! Just to let you know, we actually own this number. Unfortunately, the problem has started again. Randomly at 9.22am today, we began receiving calls from people claiming we’d called them first. So far today, there’s been 98 calls! It’s really awful for our business and makes it hard for our customers to reach us. Please, please block this number if you get calls from it. Thanks! x6 yearsSomebody rang me saying they're from the electricity compliance team or something like that. Sounded a bit dodgy to me.6 yearsTerrible experience. Got a sales call and when I told the caller my number is on the ex-directory list and they shouldn’t be ringing me, he was really impolite and just hung up. Then he rang back twice more and angrily told me off for speaking to him like that! I wasn’t rude at all, I simply asked him to take me off their list. Even though I blocked the number after the very first call, they still managed to get through. Would definitely steer clear of these people.6 yearsHey everyone, just a quick update from us, the actual owners of this number! The number of calls we’re getting has died down somewhat now. Someone advised me to contact trading standards, which I did, but unfortunately there’s not a lot they can do since the calls aren’t coming directly from our phone. It seems like scammers are only spoofing our number to hide their real ones. One woman got in touch saying she might have been scammed through one of her employees. I really hope she sorted things out with her bank and service provider, so no harm was done.6 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from Western Power, the energy provider, offering a deal supposedly 40% less than what I pay now. Totally fishy! There's no way it was actually from them, and the number showing up was definitely faked. Watch out for these fraudsters - don’t fall for it!Western PowerSteer6 yearsGot a call off this number earlier, the bloke claimed to be from Western Power saying we’re overpaying 40% on our energy bills. Total nonsense if you ask me, seemed like a proper scam and the guy wouldn’t take no for an answer. I’ve let Western Power know about it now.Western Power6 yearsGot a couple of calls from someone asking if I owned a hotel. When I asked who they wanted, the guy started shouting at me after I said I’d report them to the cops. Didn’t stop there, they rang me again!6 yearsGot two calls from someone asking if I owned a hotel. When I asked for the person's name they wanted to talk to, the caller suddenly started shouting after I mentioned I had reported him to the police. Then he rang again!6 yearsWithin just a couple of minutes, several folks from their team rang me up around five times. Every single time, I told them to stop calling, but they just kept on ringing. The voices sounded totally frantic and it was really frustrating and quite upsetting.6 yearsI really feel bad for whoever actually owns this number, it’s awful that BT hasn’t done anything to fix the situation.BT6 yearsDon't pick up, it's just a con. They've faked a real company's number to hide their scam!6 yearsA guy called Zashir Ali rang me saying my gas and electric bills were way higher than they should be. He wanted me to log into my energy provider account and let him have a look. I told him to just email me the info instead. All I got was a message on WhatsApp, no proper email like I asked for.Zashir AliWhatsApp6 yearsDidn't answer cause I didn’t know the number.6 yearsSomebody rang me pretending to be from an electricity company, saying I was paying too much on my bill. They wanted details about who supplies my power and gas. When I said no, they got really rude and I ended the call. They phoned back, asking why I'd cut off, then started insulting me and threatening to damage my business and share my number with others to keep bothering me. Total nightmare.6 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from the complaints team for my gas and electric. They wanted to talk about my bill being way too expensive.6 yearsI put the phone down but they called again like 3 times after.6 yearsMK Electrical London does really use this number, but it looks like scammers are copying it to trick folks. The company knows about it and they're worried their phone number is being abused for scams.MK ElectricalLondon6 yearsGot a call today from someone saying they were with the National Grid, telling me my electric bills were way over the usual. Seemed a bit dodgy to me.National Grid6 yearsTotal con! Watch out, it’s definitely a scam.6 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from Western Power, but it seemed fishy, probably a scam.Western PowerSubmit Your Own Report (020 7385 5016)
