8 yearsI received a phone call supposedly from British Gas-what a joke! The caller, who identified herself as Jane, first inquired if I was Mrs (my wife). Then she asked whether we were still using British Gas or Southern Electric. I told her 'No.' Then she wanted to know if we had E.on or another provider. I replied, 'No, but why on earth do you want to know that?' When I repeated myself, she abruptly hung up. Clearly, their little script must not include a response for that! So much for British Gas!British GasJaneSouthern Electric8 yearsthis week ive had a couple of odd calls from the same number one was about a BT contract ive never signed up for the other time i answered and there was just silence, couldnt hear a word from the other side!! after reading some other comments here it seems like this number should defo be reported to Action Fraud. they are the uk police backed service that helps catch and investigate scammers.Action FraudUK8 yearsGot a call saying it was about a PPI thing.8 yearsMy health isn’t great right now and it’s really getting me upset.8 yearsI just got a call from that number and all I got was silence on the other end. Very weird!8 yearsSo I got a call yesterday from a woman who sounded Indian, but her English was really hard to understand. Then she rang again today and just stayed quiet the whole time. No way I’m picking up again, blocked her straight away.8 yearsYesterday, I got called again and when I didn’t say anything, they just ended the call. No one actually talks to me at all, it's like they just hang up straight away.8 yearsI just got a call from this number, and they left a robotic message claiming to be from some fraud department, telling me to press 1 to talk about it. Did anyone else get something like this?8 yearsJust staying quiet worked for me to shake off that scammer, lol :-)8 yearsGot a call from some bloke with what sounded like an Indian or Asian accent asking if my daughter-in-law was there. When I said she wasn’t, he claimed he was ringing from Marks & Spencer and wanted my “Good Name” or something daft like that. I just told him to shove off and made sure he knows not to bother calling again. Number’s blocked now.MarksSpencer8 yearsGot a call from an unknown number, answered thinking it might be important, but as soon as I said hello, they just ended the call. Waited for them to start talking but they never did.8 yearsGot a call from an Asian guy wanting to send me a doc about PPI. Seemed a bit fishy, maybe some new scam to hack into my computer? Not sure, but I didn’t trust it.8 yearsI called back and told them they were spamming me, and then they just hung up. Really aggressive and threatening behaviour from them.8 yearsGot a ring from this number, sounded like some PPI scam. They kept pushing to get me to say yes, which I never said. I kept replying with "how can I help you?" and saying okay to questions instead. After a bit, I hung up on them. They tried phoning back, and I cut them off again. Definitely seemed dodgy, plus the person had a foreign accent. Seemed like a total scam to me.8 yearsI got two calls today that really upset me because they kept asking for my husband, who passed away over a decade ago. Then the caller switched to looking for Mrs ##### and when I said I wasn’t in the mood to chat, they got quite rude and pushy. Quite upsetting overall.8 yearsToday at around 9:40am, I got a ring from this number. A man with an Indian accent claimed he was calling from Marks and Spencer and asked for my name, postcode, and if I was over 51 years old. After I answered, he just ended the call. I’ve contacted M&S about this and they said they've had loads of similar reports. Obviously, it’s one of those dodgy PPI scams going around now.Marks and SpencerM & S8 yearsGot a call from someone claiming they were with British Gas, but had a really thick Asian accent and was quite hard to follow. Then they said they worked for some firm called Energy Saver, which was confusing since they started off saying they were from British Gas. They asked me if British Gas was my energy provider, which felt odd given their earlier claim. When I pointed that out, they just cut me off. I ended up calling British Gas myself and let them know about the call. Definitely seems like a scam to me.British GasEnergy Saver8 yearsGot a call from someone with an asian accent claiming to be British Gas. They already had my first name and postcode, asked if I was over 51, then just hung up. Felt a bit odd.British Gas8 yearsI got a call from a bloke claiming he was from Tesco. He asked if my postcode was correct and whether I was over 51, then just suddenly hung up. It was a pretty weird call.Tesco8 yearsGot a call from a man with an Indian accent who wanted to speak to my husband by name. He claimed he was ringing from ‘The Electric Department’. When I questioned the reason for his call and confirmed if I was Mrs ###, he said he worked for Scottish Power. I told him we aren't customers of Scottish Power, then he switched to say he was with British Gas instead. As soon as I asked what info he needed, he just ended the call.The Electricity BureauScottish PowerBritish Gas8 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Asian accent claiming she was ringing from M&S. She asked me to verify my name, postcode and if I was over 55, so I told her - now regret giving those details. After that, she just said thanks and ended the call. The number was 02476455656.M & S8 yearsGot a call from this number, some bloke with an Indian accent saying his name was Stuart and he was ringing on behalf of Tesco. He wanted me to confirm who I was, but I told him I'd get in touch with Tesco myself and then he just ended the call. Tesco said they’ve never heard of him, so don’t give them any info!StuartTesco8 yearsI got a call around 11:20pm from a woman with an Asian accent who asked if she was talking to me. I said yes and she wanted to check my postcode, which I gave her. Then she just said thanks and goodbye, and hung up. I called the number back straightaway but it didn’t recognise it. The number started with 02476, which I know is a Coventry area code. I told my phone provider about it but they said there’s nothing they can do.Coventry8 yearsIs anyone able to verify if this number genuinely belongs to British Gas? Sounds a bit dodgy to me!British Gas8 yearsGot a call again within two days, first it was about PPI now they're saying they're from British Gas and even mentioned my postcode and address.PPIBritish Gas8 yearsGot a call from a bloke asking for some "miss". He kept repeating it like three times, no idea who he meant. I stayed silent and he just ended the call. Sounded like a guy, no strong accent I could notice. Most likely just another scam!8 yearsAt first there was silence, then this bloke with an Indian sort of accent started talking about some claims hotline for banks. He asked if I'd made a claim against a bank before. I told him straight up I don’t deal with banks and that I reckon banks are proper awful, almost like they’re connected to the Devil or summat. He hung up right after. Definite SCAM. P.S. I’m not actually against banks or anything.8 yearsGot a call with no one speaking on the other end. Proper creepy.8 yearsGot yet another one of those silent calls today. They keep ringing me at almost the same time each day, but from different numbers every time. I’ve never picked up to answer anything and I’m not about to start. It’s a pity these telemarketers don’t get that I’m not interested at all.8 yearsHe claimed he'd be sending me papers about PPI, but as soon as I mentioned never having any PPI, he just hung up on me.PPI8 yearsTwice today, this number has rung me but I couldn’t pick up. Weirdly, BT 1472 won’t let me block it because it says it’s a VIP contact. When I try to call back, it just says the number isn’t valid or can’t be found. Really annoying!8 yearsGot a call from someone with an Indian accent talking about PPI, then suddenly they just went silent.8 yearsI got a call on my work phone from someone claiming to be Tesco, trying to confirm details for one of my co-workers.Tesco8 yearsSomebody rang me claiming to be from British Gas. Total scam, watch out!British Gas8 yearsThe line was really poor, so I ended up hanging up. I had a feeling it might be some spam call, maybe from overseas.8 yearsGot another silent call in less than 3 hours. If this is meant to be some sort of scam, they’re really rubbish at pulling it off!!8 yearsI just received a call from this number, but it hung up about 15 seconds after I picked up. When I tried to call back, BT's message came on saying the number isn't recognised. I reckon it might be some overseas call centre messing with the caller ID using a telecom switch to disguise their identity.BT8 yearsGot a ring from 02476455656 around 1.48 pm today. Missed it initially so tried calling back straight away, but just got busy tone. Honestly, when will these scammers learn? The government really needs to step up and put a stop to all these annoying calls. I'm not interested in whatever they're trying to push, thanks!8 yearsGot a call from someone with an overseas accent talking about British Gas. After a pause, they went quiet, which seemed pretty dodgy. Told them we’re on the TPS list and then I just ended the call. Definitely felt like a scam!British GasTPS8 yearsGot a call from a guy with an Indian accent. There was a lot of static, sounded like it was coming from far away. He somehow already knew my name, address, and postcode, said he wanted to send me something in the post and needed to confirm my details. I just blocked the number straight away.8 yearsSomebody rang me asking for a person who supposedly had this number more than a decade ago. I explained that the individual actually passed away about 10 years back, and then they just ended the call.8 yearsFor the past couple of days I've had a bunch of calls on my work phone, but whenever i answer, it's just dead silence on the other end. Reading these reviews makes me think i'll just block them next time!8 yearsGot a call from a bloke with an Indian accent, said he was sending me some paperwork and asked for my address. When I said I wasn’t interested in receiving anything, he just told me to f. off. Not sure what that was about.8 yearsKept ringing me up non stop, sounded like they had an overseas accent. Blocked the number now.8 yearsGot a call from someone with an accent from the subcontinent, but they dodged every question I threw at them about their identity. Not really up for explaining who they were.8 yearsI picked up and they just ended the call right away.8 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Indian accent, saying she was from BT about some paperwork they’d post to me for signing and returning. It sounded like one of those dodgy scams, so when she asked for my info, I just ended the call after a couple of questions.BT8 yearsGot a ring from someone called John claiming to be from M&S, sounded like he had a strong Indian accent. He kept going on about needing to check my name, postcode, and whether I was older than 55. I asked why he needed all that info but he just kept saying it was for confirmation, no proper explanation. I told him I wasn’t going to share anything unless he explained the reason. In the end, he just gave up and ended the call.JohnM & S8 yearsThere was a bloke with a heavy Indian/Pakistani accent who said he’d post me something regarding PPI. He started asking for my name and address, which he already seemed to have. I asked him who he was a couple of times before I just ended the call.8 yearsEvery time I pick up the call, there's just silence on the other end. Quite peculiar, isn't it?8 yearsGot a call from some Indian bloke claiming to be from M&S. Don’t give them any info, they’re just after your data. This was all before GDPR kicked in, so watch out!M & S8 yearsGot a call from someone with an Indian accent saying they were from an electric company, but they never mentioned which one.8 yearsI got a call from someone about PPI, but I could hardly catch what she was saying because of her thick accent. She oddly already had all my details - my full name, my address, postcode, even my age. I told her I wasn’t interested, but she kept going on anyway. Quite annoying!8 yearsCaller sounded Indian, ended the call abruptly.8 yearsHe called, said my name and wanted to check my postcode. When I asked what for, he just ended the call. Strange!8 yearsGot a call from some guy claiming to be from Marks & Spencer asking for my name and postcode. Told him he’d got the wrong number - felt a bit dodgy if I’m honest. Ended the call pretty quickly.MarksSpencer8 yearsGot a call from someone speaking with an Indian accent, saying they were from Lloyds TSB. They asked me for my postcode but then just cut the call.Lloyds TSB8 yearsThe moment I picked up, the caller just disconnected. I've gone ahead and blocked that number now.8 yearsThis number called me four times today. Three of them were completely silent, and the last call they just asked for my name and then ended the call. Strange behaviour.8 yearsI told him to add me to their forgotten list and erase my details from their records. He argued back, flat out refusing. I even mentioned data protection laws and the GDPR, but he still wouldn’t budge. So, I decided to just block the number.8 yearsSome bloke with an Indian accent said he was from Nationwide. I told him I never talk about my bank details on the phone. Then he asked if I could speak English properly - couldn’t find a nice way to respond to that. Honestly, he should find a proper job.Nationwide8 yearsThis bloke called Shaun rang me up, said he was with Halifax Bank. Had a strong Indian accent and somehow already knew my name. Then he asked me to confirm my postcode - proper dodgy if you ask me.ShaunHalifax8 yearsJust got a call from 02476455656, some bloke with an Indian accent pretending to be from my bank. He said his name was Sean and claimed he had money to give me. Honestly, total scam. Another foreigner trying to con people here in the UK. They should just all be sent back to wherever they came from. What a joke!Sean8 yearsI got a call from a bloke with a thick Indian accent claiming he was ringing from Marks & Spencer. He rattled off my postcode to check if it was me, but I just didn’t bother replying. After hanging up, I looked up the number. Honestly, these calls are such a time waster and I’m really sick of it.Marks & Spencer8 yearsGot a call about some PPI thing, sounded all dodgy. When I finally got a word in, told them I’ve never taken out a loan ever. Before I could say much else, they just cut off.
