6 yearsGot a voicemail from someone claiming to be HMRC’s fraud department, warning me I’d get arrested if I didn’t call back. Sounds totally dodgy and definitely not legit!HMRC7 yearsGot a few missed calls from this number within a very short time, about four in total, but no messages were left. So I just ended up blocking it.7 yearsGot a call from an Asian chap again, and as soon as I mentioned TPS, he started swearing a load. I just ended the call straight away. Then he kept calling back about four times, cursing as soon as I picked up each time. I’ve now blocked the number through BT’s Call Protect.TPSBT8 yearsI've been getting calls from this person with an Indian accent who just wouldn't accept that "he's never home." It's so annoying. Twice I got a message that the number was unreachable, then this time it was him. Pretty sure he's trying to scam people.8 yearsHad a bloke ring me up with an Indian accent, said he was from National Grid complaints team. He was going on about us not paying for the right amount of electricity or something like that. Tried to convince me he was legit by saying he knew exactly what our last bill showed for usage! They won’t quit ringing either, so I’ve had to block loads of numbers they use. They keep calling from different places, sometimes it shows up as international, other times from a 0053 number, and now even this 0208 one! Proper annoying.National Grid8 yearsThis bloke has been pestering me for two weeks straight now. Just spent another hour listening to his crazy nonsense. He's proper unwell. Can anyone put a stop to this?8 yearsHow bout we all chip in and get someone to give Tahoor Ali a scare by slashing his [email protected]? That'd teach him a lesson for sure!Tahoor Ali8 yearsUnpleasant chap from India, to say the least. He insisted on having a word with the shop owner. Even after I made it clear that we weren’t keen on his incessant ringing, he just kept phoning back repeatedly. I haven’t the foggiest idea what his business was!India8 yearsI've been getting calls from this bloke from Asia non-stop for over an hour, and he's just so rude on the phone. If he's trying to sell gas and electric, he's doing a terrible job. Honestly, he's a complete nightmare and frankly, a threat to everyone. Whoever's got him working there should definitely fire him. I reckon he's probably worse to women with the stuff he says.8 yearsGot a few calls from some bloke claiming to be from E.ON, wanting to talk about my electric meter. Thing is, I’m not even with E.ON! Told him straight to buzz off. Seems like loads of people from India are trying these dodgy tricks to con folks. Proper annoying!E. ON8 yearsI had this bloke from Asia blowing up my phone for almost an hour straight. Right from the get-go, I told him not to call again, but he just wouldn’t stop, ringing me back the second I ended the call. He was really pushy and rude about it. I kept telling him I’m busy with my own work and can’t be bothered, but he just kept coming back for more. Then, to top it all off, he started making creepy comments. Properly disgusting bloke.8 yearsThis idiot keeps ringing me, I’ve told him I’m not interested and to stop calling but he just won’t quit. It got on my nerves so I mentioned I’d report him to the TPS, and he just dared me to do it. I bet he’s paying to use some number from an Asian country or somewhere, so the TPS won’t be able to help about these calls.TPSAsia8 yearsThey mentioned something about replacing my electric meter, but I have my doubts about it actually happening.8 yearsThey keep calling me non stop and I have no clue why at all.8 yearsSome annoying bloke keeps ringing up, even tho I told him I’m not interested and to stop calling. It got to the point where I was proper fed up, so I said I’d report him to the TPS. He just laughed and said ‘go ahead’. I reckon he’s bought the number from somewhere overseas, maybe Asia, so the TPS won’t be able to do a thing about it. Such a pain!Telephone Preference ServiceTPS8 yearsSome bloke rang up saying he was from an energy firm, real polite with it. Thing is, it felt a bit dodgy since we've never heard from them previously, and he kept fishing for loads of personal details.8 yearsEvery time the call comes in, it's that same bloke. This afternoon when he finally got through to me, he said, "You're the one I talked to earlier," but honestly, our voices aren’t that alike. Then he just cut off. I was kinda hoping to mess about with him a bit, see how long he’d keep going before blowing a fuse. Shame I didn’t even get to say have a miserable New Year to him!8 yearsGot a call from a guy with an Asian accent pretending he’s from an energy firm. Kept asking to speak to the manager but then just started shouting loads of rude stuff. Total waste of time, honestly.8 yearsI get calls almost every week, like 2 to 4 times, always near 5 in the evening. The person on the line claims to be from different energy firms each time and says we're paying too much. But they never explain how they figured that out. Sounds like those typical Indian scam calls to me.India8 yearsSo this guy rang up the place I’m working at and asked to speak to the owner. When I inquired which company he needed, he just responded with a rude swear word. Then, about 40 minutes later, he phoned again asking for green tea. Honestly, what a horrible bloke!8 yearsSome bloke rang up saying there was an issue with my meter and asked for my energy bill info. I told him straight up he was a d### scammer and hung up!8 yearsI got a call from some bloke who spoke funny and was proper rude, going on about energy or something but I couldn't make out a word. I told him I was busy and not interested, then ended the call. But this guy kept ringing me like six more times in a row! Honestly, he was really disrespectful. I'd avoid picking up if you see this number pop up.8 yearsI pretended to be a child of five years old. The lady started talking about grown-up stuff like American Pie and 50 Shades, which is really not what you say to a kid that age. Then, another woman from India tried chatting with me about energy and then began asking for my phone number, WhatsApp, Instagram, and even asked if I (supposedly 5) was having sex. Definitely avoid these people, they're clearly trying to groom children.WhatsAppInstagram8 yearsFor a change, I've been getting daily calls from some Indian folks spouting rubbish about energy stuff. They’re hard to understand and quite impolite most of the time. Feels like they’re just wasting my time with pointless "work." I’m pretty sure it’s a scam.India8 yearsSomeone rang saying they were from National Grid and mentioned I could claim compensation for electricity losses.8 yearsGot two calls earlier today from this number, asked me who my electricity provider is. I found them really cheeky and rude!8 yearsThis bloke called asking who I got my business electric from. I just said “the electric company” and he sounded proper annoyed by that. Then he asked if I used British Gas, so I went, “Isn’t most gas Russian nowadays?” and he just gave up. Honestly, if you fancy a laugh, mess about with these lot, giving them daft replies. If they don’t start swearing, they usually just end the call. Proper good fun, that is.British GasRussia8 yearsGot a call from some bloke who sounded like his words were coming through some dodgy robot translator. Pretty amusing! The usual nonsense about an energy company wanting to help me cut costs. They sure don’t give up easily, bless ’em. Honestly, don’t even bother picking up - it’s just a total waste of your time and nerves.8 yearsI got a call at my job, but it was the manager’s partner who picked up the phone. Without even saying who they were or which firm they represented, they started giving her some kind of warning for no reason at all. Really odd behaviour.8 yearsEarlier today, at precisely 11:11 AM, I received a rather disturbing phone call from this number. It began quite amicably with a cheerful “Good morning,” but quickly took a nasty turn with foul language flying at me. After some choice expletives aimed my way, I just couldn’t take it anymore and hung up. The caller tried to ring back, but I chose to ignore it. I've since blocked the number as a precaution. Just a friendly warning to everyone - stay vigilant!8 yearsI had a call from someone saying they worked for a utility firm, but it felt fishy when they started asking for my personal info. Seriously, don't share any details with these lot. Just end the call straight away and make sure to report it to ACTION FRAUD.8 yearsThese people keep ringing nonstop, and their English isn’t very good either. They say they’re calling from utility companies, but they have no clue who they’re meant to be. The final straw was when they started asking me for personal info. Don’t give them any details - just end the call and make sure you report them to ACTION FRAUD.8 yearsGot a call from a guy with a heavy Asian accent and his English was quite hard to understand. He claimed to be calling from National Grid about a faulty meter with some 'loose capacity' issue. He threatened to disconnect my electricity if I didn't agree to a replacement next week. When I asked for his full name, contact number, and supervisor’s details, he started asking weird personal stuff and bragged about being a 'clever lad.' Not really clever, though! The phone number he gave me doesn’t exist, and the address was some random spot in London. Ended up just hanging up on him.London8 yearsTotal con artists. Got calls from supposedly various energy firms, but it’s always the same nonsense from these rude, clueless folks from Asia. Never hand over any details! I looked up the phone numbers and looks like they come from India. That’s all you need to know, just avoid them completely!India8 yearsSome people pretending to be from Opus Energy, but its all lies. I already told Opus Energy about it, so be careful.Opus Energy8 yearsGot a call from what sounded like a busy call centre, loads of background noise. The people on the phone barely spoke any English and said they were checking gas meters, but seemed dodgy to me. Definitely felt like a scam.8 yearsSomeone rang me saying they were from EON, wanted my password but couldn’t provide one themselves! They got quite rude and started shouting, so I just hung up. Then a ‘manager’ called back asking to verify my bank info - yeah right, like I’m giving that out. I ended the call pretty quickly then as well!EON8 yearsI got a call from what sounded like a busy call centre, saying they were from EDF. They said my smart meter wasn’t working and that they needed a meter reading. They asked for details about our account, which surely they should already have. Then they even wanted our bank info to set up a direct debit. No way I was giving that out!EDF8 yearsGot a call at my job today from some randoms asking for the owner. When I replied to say how I could help, the rude bloke just told me to shut up! Seriously, just end the call and don’t bother with them. No way I was sticking around for that.8 yearsGot a call from some noisy call centre abroad, almost couldn’t make out what they were saying. They kept saying I could save money on my gas and electric bills if I switched to them. Sounds dodgy to me. Didn’t even say their name or which firm they were from when I asked. They’ve rung me over 8 times now.8 yearsGot a call earlier from someone claiming to be from an electricity supplier trying to sell me a deal.8 yearsThey rang me but I just ignored it.8 yearsThey rang me up and asked if I was Mr Adam, which I said yes to, then they just ended the call straight away.Adam8 yearsIgnore any calls from Asa, they just start with abuse as soon as you pick up.8 yearsGot a fresh number, i reckon she had to get a new one after we blocked her old ones. Sums it up, probably ringing from BT or some other big provider.Submit Your Own Report (020 8144 7166)
