Phone number ☎️ 02086386477 👆 is reported as a persistent scam involving aggressive calls from individuals falsely claiming to represent Companies House, British Gas, or other energy suppliers. Callers frequently demand meter readings, business details, or bank information, using intimidation or pressure tactics. They often exhibit rude behaviour, make repeated calls despite refusals, and change numbers regularly. Numerous reports indicate calls originate from overseas call centres with Indian accents posing as UK companies. Targets include newly registered businesses and existing customers, with calls sometimes verified as fraudulent through mismatched company information. Recipients are strongly advised not to disclose any personal or financial details, to block the numbers, and to report the incidents to their legitimate providers or authorities. Vigilance and caution are essential to avoid falling victim to these scams.

2 yearsGot a call today from someone saying they were ringing from Companies House. I wasn’t too sure about it as something felt off. Turns out it was just a scammer pretending to be official! Watch out for these dodgy calls, they’re sneaky. Don’t believe everything people say on the phone!Companies House2 yearsReceived multiple calls, around six I think, from someone claiming to be from Companies House. They were pretty pushy but didn’t get any details from me. Felt like a scam to me.Companies House2 yearsKept getting calls from someone saying they were from HMGOV, even after I told them to stop. Didn’t take no for an answer, so I had to block the number.HMGOV2 yearsGot a call on my cell where the bloke claimed to be from Eon next, which is actually my energy provider. When I called him out, he suddenly switched up his story, saying he was just an energy consultant. I wasn’t having any of it and told him not to accuse me of hearing things wrong when I’m certain what he said at the start. Ended with me telling him to get lost.Eon2 yearsI had these dodgy scammers ring me up five separate times, really rude and threatening every single call.2 yearsKept ringing me up insisting that my gas and electric account had to be registered with their company or something.2 yearsThe numbers scammers use keep switching all the time.2 yearsGot a call at work from someone claiming to represent a legal firm, insisted on speaking to the owner. They rang me like 3 times in a row, getting more annoyed each time I didn't comply. Then, funny enough, the same number rang a 4th time but this time they were pretending to be from British Gas 😂. Funny to see someone so green at scamming, honestly!British Gas2 yearsSomeone called claiming to be from Positive Energy, saying they needed to update our account details and oddly, they even knew our address. We soon figured it was a scam because we’re actually with another provider. They were pretty impolite and kept pressing us for info.Positive Energy2 yearsI just got a call from someone claiming to be from Companies House Registration Team - total scam! Be careful, folks.Companies House Registration Team2 yearsThey claimed to be calling from companies house or something like that.2 yearsWithin just an hour, our company got three calls from different numbers: first from 03447 701234, then 020 7175 9584, and finally 020 8638 6477. Each time, it was a woman with an accent that suggested she was working for an Indian call centre. She claimed to be from some mysterious "registration department" - whatever that’s meant to be - but quickly said she was with British Gas and had an "offer" to discuss. We've made it clear we're not interested and politely told them to jog on. Going to see if they bother ringing a fourth time now...British Gas2 yearsDefinitely a scam, don’t fall for it.2 yearsThey never mentioned any company or asked for a specific person, just kept insisting on getting my manager's mobile number so they could apparently record a call before sending over some documents. The way they spoke was really pushy and annoying. After I ended the call, they rang me back not once, but three times!2 yearsThis company is a scam, already told my supplier about it. They keep asking for meter readings but when I asked for an account number, they said they’re not billing and don’t have access. It’s happened before too. Honestly, you should add a password on your accounts, your supplier would agree with that for sure.2 yearsThey wouldnt stop ringing me, kept at it nonstop!2 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be British Gas asking for a meter read, kept pushing me for it so I just blocked the number.British Gas2 yearsYeah, definitely a scam. Every time they ring me, I just end up cussing out their family.2 yearsGot a call saying it was from British Gas - total scam, don't believe a word!British Gas2 yearsThis guy kept ringing the company I work for, three times in total. Each time he asked for our business ID, which I wasn’t about to give. I told him straight up he was sounding dodgy and that we dont hand out that kinda info. He still kept calling back. By the third call, I told him to knock it off. Eventually, I had to block his number from our phones so it wouldn’t bother us anymore.2 yearsGot repeated calls from someone saying they were with an energy firm. Really annoying and felt like harassment. Make sure not to give them any of your info!!!Got2 yearsGot a call from them and they were swearing all over the place.2 yearsSo we set up a new business at an address we already had and somehow our company phone number ended up in their hands. They first rang saying they were from Ruby Energy, which is funny because that’s who we already get our power from. After a couple of persistent calls and us not buying it, they switched tack and said they were from British Gas. That was the last straw - straight to BLOCK!Ruby EnergyBritish Gas2 yearsGot a call on 26/10/24 from someone saying they were from Switch Business Gas and Power. They asked for my meter reading but then suddenly said they were with British Gas instead. They were really pushy and quite rude.Switch Business GasPowerBritish Gas2 yearsGot a call from someone real quick and brusque asking for meter readings for gas and electric. Problem is, we don’t have any gas here at all. She then said she was just updating my info or something like that. After that, she kept telling me my contract was up, which is rubbish. I didn’t give her any details, felt a bit dodgy to me.2 yearsGot loads of calls from them, first thing they wanted was a meter reading - but we’ve got one of those smart meters so what’s the point? They didn’t even say who they were when I asked, just kept quiet. As soon as I hung up, they rang back again. Finally had to block the number to stop it.2 yearsI got two calls from someone saying they were from Companies House, asking to speak to the business owner. The initial caller was quite rude and their English wasn’t great. Then a second person, who said her name was Amy, insisted that the company "Elite Food House Ltd." would be closed down unless they got a return call. The funny thing is, that company was actually dissolved way back on 23 March 2021.Companies HouseAmyElite Food House Ltd2 yearsThis bloke said he was calling from British Gas and threatened to send someone over to disconnect our supply if I didn’t speak with him. After I hung up, he had the nerve to call again. Really pushy and definitely not legit, just a scam!British Gas2 yearsGot a call from this number saying they were from our energy company, wanted to check some info. They were really rough and pushy, so we just hung up. Then they phoned back like six times or more. They said they were with EDF, but it didn’t feel right at all.EDF2 yearsThey were insisting on getting my meter reading, kept pushing for it.2 yearsThe lady who picked up the phone is getting nonstop calls from them, and when she tells them to stop, they just cheerfully say there’s nothing they can do. It’s really annoying how they keep bothering her like that.2 yearsIn just ten minutes, I got five calls, all pretending to be various firms like British Gas, Octopus, HMRC and even Companies House. Whenever I asked for the caller’s name and staff ID, I told them I’d ring the official company back to check before continuing the chat. As soon as I said that, they all ended the call straight away.British GasOctopusHMRCCompanies House2 yearsThey’ve phoned me over a dozen times today and just won’t accept no for an answer. The bloke on the other end was pretty rude, even threatening to cut off our business electricity if we didn’t cough up £3000 right away. Proper aggressive behaviour from that company.2 yearsGot a call about the meter reading and they said if I didn’t do it today, my supply would get cut off. Total scam, watch out!2 yearsIn about a month and a half, my business will be sold to new owners. Somehow, this info has ended up on some list because I've started getting constant calls from this number and a few others, all asking for the incoming owners by name - even though they haven’t moved in yet! I’ve been getting calls every 15 minutes or so all day and into the night, which is really disrupting me trying to keep things running here.2 yearsGot a call about giving meter readings but they never said which company they were with. We explained that we do it online nowadays but they just kept pushing for the details. We ended up hanging up and then the phone just kept ringing like six times in a row!2 yearsHonestly, this number should just be blocked already.2 yearsA bloke kept ringing non-stop, over 20 times in a row, pestering the lady at work with really inappropriate stuff. Proper annoying!2 yearsGot a call claiming to be from Octopus Energy, but it was a total scam.

Everyone should watch out for this.2 yearsLoads of calls claiming to be from the 'energy company' have kept coming through, always asking for our meter readings and numbers.

The person on the phone spoke with a foreign accent and said they were from British Gas, wanting to verify my meter readings.British Gas3 yearsI received a pre-recorded message that impersonated a tax inspector from HM Revenue and Customs, instructing me to press 1 to “evade legal troubles”. Quite disconcerting, to say the least!HM Revenue and Customs3 yearsSomebody rang me, said they were Nancy from British gas, had a strong Indian accent and asked for my meter reading. Since I’ve got a smart meter, I just made up a few reasons to get rid of her and told her my boss would get in touch the next day.
