Phone number ☎️ 02081331551 👆 is reported as a scam number frequently used by callers impersonating the National Grid or energy companies to arrange fake meter replacements, often smart meters. The callers typically ask for personal information, utility bills, photos of meters, or request appointments, using poorly written emails from suspicious addresses. Repeated reports mention the callers having foreign accents, displaying poor English, and providing incorrect company details. The number and associated emails do not match official National Grid contacts, and callbacks often result in hang-ups or further suspicious requests. Users are warned to avoid engagement, verify directly with their energy suppliers, and not share personal or utility information. This number is strongly linked to phishing and fraudulent attempts targeting both residential and business premises.

11 monthsHonestly, this is probably the cleverest scam I’ve come across - it looks totally legit! But when you click around, most of the links, especially the app ones, just don’t work. Turns out the phone number is a fake as well. Definitely steer well clear of this one!1 yearI got a call from this number claiming to be McAfee Anti-Virus. They said my subscription had automatically renewed for like £185 for two years. The weird thing is, I’ve never even bought anything from McAfee for antivirus before. Definitely sounds like a phishing scam to me.McAfee1 yearSomeone rang me saying they were from National Grid, saying our electric meter was faulty and needed replacing. Their English was really bad and they seemed confused when I asked how they knew there was a problem. I looked up the official National Grid contact and it definitely wasn’t the number that called me.National Grid1 yearThey called me saying they need to swap my electric meter and asked for a pic of it. The email they sent was full of poor English. Tried ringin EDF but their offices were closed, so couldn’t confirm anything.EDF1 yearGot a call from someone saying they're from National Grid, saying they needed to install a smart meter. They even sent a letter with a specific date for the appointment. Then they asked me to send them copies of my utility bills through WhatsApp! Seems a bit dodgy to me.National GridWhatsApp1 yearGot a call from someone I didn’t know saying the power at our place was gonna cut out. I tried calling the number they gave back to get more info, but they just ended the call on me.2 yearsThey've rung us several times about installing a smart meter, even though we literally just got one done. Seems totally dodgy to me. Definitely a scam, no doubt about it.2 yearsI've had a call from a man claiming to be from National Grid. He said I need to change my meters to smart meters. One of my meters is from National Grid; it is only two years old and there is nothing wrong with it. In the end, I agreed to have them changed because I thought he was genuine, but when I looked at the number on the email he sent me for contact, which is 02081331551, I googled it and found that it says it's a scam. I sent him a message stating he is not from National Grid because I also googled their number, and it is certainly not them. I've already arranged for them to change the meters, but now that I've found out it's a scam, I've told him that I don't want them done. I'm going to ring National Grid, the real one, and see what they say.National GridNationsl Grid2 yearsMy husband was phoned on his mobile number from the 'National Grid' regarding changing the meter at one of our premises which had reached the end of its life! Eventually, my husband asked for an email to verify what they were saying, which he duly received within half an hour. What triggered alarm bells for me was that my husband's name is not on any of our utility bills, for our house or for any of our business premises, nor is his email address!National Grid2 yearsI had the pleasure of speaking to Addi on extension number 8012 of the main line and requested the contact number and name of the director once I mentioned that I wasn't dealing with utilities.Addi2 yearsThe same happened to us today.2 yearsI had a call from my company to tell me that someone from National Grid had phoned and said they were coming to change the meter, leaving a phone number, so I called them back. He seemed to be trying to keep me on the phone, asking all kinds of things, then taking ages to give me a reference number. I had provided him with the name and address of my business, but then he was probing me for my name, which I didn’t give, and I put the phone down. I am wondering if they are trying to access your phone while on the call or if they want your voice to attempt some other scam with it.2 yearsA foreign-sounding gentleman said we needed our meters changing and was from the National Grid. He said our readings were very high. I explained they were not, as I had a smart meter. He continued to insist it needed changing. He also sent an email requesting a meter reading and a copy of the last invoice. I refused all requests and cut him off. He called my team again, but as they had been briefed, they ended the call. It was clearly not the National Grid; both the number and email were incorrect. He probably wanted information to facilitate some sort of scam.National2 yearsThis number rang me a couple of times, saying something about swapping our meter. At first, they claimed I was with British Gas, but then quickly tried to name the right energy supplier. Something felt off straight away. I told them to send me an email. Later, they rang back checking if I'd received it - the email came from an @outlook address. I questioned why a proper energy company would be using a free email service like that. They then kept insisting on a photo of our meter and tried to schedule a visit. Seemed dodgy to me.British Gas2 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from National Grid, but it felt like a total scam. They kept insisting they’d be coming on a specific day, but I said I’d check with National Grid myself once I had my schedule sorted. They didn’t take that well and kept telling me to ring them back. Definitely not convinced it was legit.National Grid2 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from National Grid wanting to switch out my electric meter. Sounded dodgy to me, probably a scam coming from abroad, even though they said they were operating out of London.National GridLondon2 yearsGot a call from two guys with thick Indian accents claiming to be from National Grid, trying to set up a new meter. They asked for all sorts of info like email and phone numbers. Later on, I got an email from a really sketchy looking address - [email protected]. They wanted me to send over a recent bill and the current meter readings. Silly me gave them my mobile number but I’m ignoring any emails they send now.National Grid2 yearsDefinatly a scam, don’t trust it!2 yearsGot a call from a lady saying she was with National Grid, mentioning an appointment to swap out our gas and electric meters. She said her name was Anna and gave a number, 02081331551, plus an ID number, 8016. We’d just recently had our meters changed by National Grid and our electricity company, so something about it didn’t feel right even though she provided those so-called legit details.National GridAnna2 yearsWe've had calls from this number at our workplace a few times, with someone trying to set up a time to swap out the electric meter. They asked us to ring them back, but when we did, the line just got cut. It's definitely a scam because neither the person nor the extension they gave us are real. Don't trust it!2 yearsGot a call at work from this number claiming to be National Grid, saying they needed to swap out our electric and gas meters on some specific day. They rattled off some random department code and asked us to ring them back. Thing is, we don't even have a gas meter here... pretty fishy if you ask me.National Grid2 yearsA bloke called "Ryan" rang up pretending to be with the National Grid, talking about fitting a new meter. He sounded a bit rude and in a rush, but was throwing around what sounded like official info. Felt a bit dodgy to me.RyanNational Grid2 yearsGot a call from this number saying they were from the National Grid and needed to swap out our electric meter. Being suspicious, I said no. The guy then claimed he already had an appointment booked. I asked him which electricity supplier he was with, and he gave me the wrong name. Not falling for it, I definitely won’t be calling back to sort any appointment out.National Grid2 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with the electricity provider and needed to fit a new meter as ours was apparently faulty!2 yearsRyan got a call from Lalu, who was acting like he was with National Grid. Honestly, I reckon Ryan’s got bigger worries, like sorting out his work visa, rather than stressing about other folks’ meters.LaluRyanNationalGridSubmit Your Own Report (020 8133 1551)
