02080978206 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 02080978206 👆 is reported as callers pretending to be from British Gas or Scottish Power, claiming issues with a faulty meter and offering refunds. They are quite convincing at first, requesting personal details like name and date of birth. Beware, as they then persistently push for bank information, refusing to take no for an answer and often repeatedly calling despite politeness or complaints. They may promise refunds but say these can’t be credited to accounts and will be sent directly to bank accounts instead, which raises suspicions. Many find the calls intrusive and difficult to stop, suggesting blocking is often the only way to end the contact.

Got a call from someone saying they were from the Meter Services team, telling me our meter was scheduled for replacement and that the electricity would be off for about 40 minutes. When I asked who had arranged the replacement, he mentioned NPower. Thing is, NPower has never been our energy provider. He then said sorry, claimed he had the wrong details, and asked me to wait while he checked again. Since we had our meter checked less than a year ago and definitely don’t use NPower, I called him out as a scammer and ended the call. The number they rang from was 02080978206.

This bloke was really cheeky, going on about changing my meter and saying he was from some main meter reading firm. Proper rude too. I told him off and hung up, but then he had the nerve to ring me back again! Didn’t pick up the second time though.

Totally a scam call. Got a ring at work from this number pretending to be our electric company, saying they were coming to swap out our meter. I said I had to check with our maintenance crew first to make sure someone’d be there, and asked for a contact number or email to follow up. They just cut off on me.

Someone called saying they were from Octopus Energy about changing our broken meter. They wouldn’t share any password, and they said they don’t speak to anyone who can’t provide one. Seems dodgy to me, so I reckon it’s a scam.

Got a call saying they were from British Gas about swapping out my meter since it was supposedly faulty. They mentioned I'd get a refund for the last three months, but said it couldn't go onto my account and would have to be paid directly into my bank. Of course, I didn't provide any banking info or personal details. Felt a bit suspicious to me.

A group pretending to represent Scottish Power keeps ringing me. At first, they ask loads of personal info, like your name and DOB, to ‘verify’ you, then they push for bank info. They are super stubborn and won’t stop phoning no matter how rude or nice you get. Best bet? Just block the number if you can. They sound pretty legit, which had me fooled at first. I told them my name, birthday and phone number without thinking much. It only got sketchy when they wanted my bank details that I realised something was off.
