6 yearsThey called just one time then hung up. Didn’t even get to pick up the phone.6 yearsGot a call from some bloke claiming to be Lord Simon Paterson Funtleroy the Third, said he was ringing for British Gas. He grilled me with like a dozen security questions then just ended the call. Kinda wondering now if I should’ve just ignored it.Simon Paterson FuntleroyBritish Gas8 yearsCant stand British Gas at all. Honestly, the reviews speak for themselves, they’re really awful to deal with.British Gas8 yearsKeeps ringing but no voicemail left, call just drops as soon as I pick up. Proper annoying!8 yearsWithout a doubt, these are scammers. Best thing to do is either block the number or set it to auto reject on your phone.8 yearsI never bother leaving a voicemail.9 yearsA woman with a heavy Indian accent rang, claiming she was from British Gas and wanted to speak to me (she actually knew my name). I asked what it was about and she said it was to do with my utility bills. I didn’t say anything after that and she just ended the call.British Gas9 yearsSomebody tried telling me they were BG and asked for my details, saying they needed to confirm it was me they were after. Thing is, BG always get in touch through the post, and their office number doesn’t start with 020. That’s how I figured out the people who rang me were just scammers.BG9 yearsDefinitely not British Gas! Pure scammers trying to get your card info. Every time I ask for a reference number or some details so I can ring British Gas myself, they just cut me off straight away. This has happened loads of times now. I even got in touch with my phone company but they said they can’t block the number for everyone on their network. So if your phone has the option, best to put that number straight on auto block.British Gas9 yearsI've had this number ring me a bunch of times recently, but they never leave any voicemail. If it really was important, surely they'd leave a message? And if they're claiming to be British Gas, it's not proper for them to call like this - it just opens up customers to scammers, something BG should know well enough. They really ought to be sending letters to people’s homes, explaining why they're reaching out. That way, customers can ring the official number or reply properly. What’s odd is they never leave a callback number from the official BG contact details, like the number on your bill or their website. Honestly, they really shouldn't be phoning at all in this manner! I’m planning to get in touch with British Gas directly to check if this is their number. If it turns out it’s not, I’ll let them know about this website and stress how important it is to warn customers by post about these scammers pretending to be BG on the phone. I’ll update once I know more.British GasBG9 yearsCalled me a few times, saying they're from British Gas but wouldn’t give me the property account info they were ringing about. Totally unprofessional. Tried to quiz me with security questions even though they’d just cold called me. Absolutely daft! Ended up hanging up on me twice.British Gas9 yearsThey said they were from British Gas. I kept asking what it was regarding but they seemed a bit suspicious with the info they kept asking for. I didn't give them anything. Really annoying how they keep calling me daily. All my bills are up to date anyway.British Gas9 yearsGot two calls from this number over the past week. The person on the line claimed to be from British Gas but wanted to speak to someone who doesn't live here. When I said that person isn’t at this address, they just ended the call immediately!!British Gas9 yearsGot an automated call that just ends the call right away when it hits my voicemail - definitely blocked!9 yearsI rang British Gas and the person I spoke to looked up the number but said they didn’t recognise it.British Gas9 yearsI got a call from this number claiming they were with British Gas, had my name and asked for my postcode. They said I was behind on payments and that I’d be charged extra if I didn’t pay immediately over the phone. Thing is, my bill isn’t even due yet, so I just told them I’d take care of it online and then ended the call.British Gas9 yearsIt just keeps ringing and then they suddenly cut off, defo sounds like one of those call centre calls.10 yearsKept ringing but no one spoke. I’ve gone ahead and blocked them!10 yearsGot a ring from this number yesterday, but all I heard was silence. Then this morning, same thing - silence right up till I said ‘hello’. The bloke asked for me by name, then just hung up. If it’s actually British Gas, why won’t they bother talking to me? And seriously, why the heck are they using a London number to call from an Indian call centre? Makes no sense at all!LondonIndia10 yearsSomeone rang up asking for my mum. I asked them who it was and they said British Gas, but then the call just ended. This has happened more than once now.British Gas10 yearsThey say they're from British Gas but it's just a scam. Never share any info with them. Make sure you report these calls to the proper nuisance phone authorities.British GasSteer10 yearsThey aren’t really British Gas, they’re just trying to scam you. Don’t share any info with them, and make sure you report the call as nuisance.British Gas10 yearsThis number has been ringing me every morning and afternoon for the last three days, but for some reason, I keep missing the calls. Not sure how that keeps happening.10 yearsThat’s British Gas for you. They’ve got this handy thing on their site where you can pop in the phone number to see if it’s them ringing. The caller usually doesn’t mind hanging on a bit while you check.British Gas11 yearsSeems like there's a rather dodgy lot pretending to be British Gas, but really they're just after your sensitive info! I've checked with British Gas myself since I'm a customer, and they've confirmed that under no circumstances do they reach out to clients using local area codes such as 0208. So keep your wits about you and don’t fall for their tricks!British Gas11 yearsYeah, it looks like it's British Gas. I rang the number myself. I reckon they might be trying to get you to submit your meter reading. Not too sure though, coz I didn’t pick up the call.British Gas11 yearsdodgy individual pretending to be from British Gas, be careful!RudeBritish Gas11 yearsThey claimed to be British Gas, is that right?British Gas11 yearsday after day i get calls from this number, and the bloke says he's with british gas. he always rings me around 6 in the evening or even later.British Gas11 yearscalls a mobile phone12 yearsI keep getting these annoying sales calls all the time, it's proper harassment.12 yearsFor the last three months, I've been getting calls from this number multiple times a day. It's so irritating. They keep asking for a Julie Allen. Every time, I explain it's not her number, get an apology, but then they ring back again after just a few hours.Julie Allen13 yearsGot a call from British Gas earlier, they were just checking in about the appointment scheduled for this morning.British GasSubmit Your Own Report (020 8328 2949)
