1 yearAt least a couple times a day, this number rings the pub where I work, looking for the owner to chat about our energy supplier. It’s getting a bit much now.1 yearGot a call from someone pretending to be British Gas, telling me my tariff would increase at midnight unless I gave them my bank info and agreed to switch to a cheaper plan (surprise, surprise). I just ended the call. Then, the same number sent me a text saying I’d missed their call and to ring 901, press * then option 5 twice. Yeah, no chance I did that - felt like a scam to grab my details or worse. Safe to say, I blocked the number straight away.British Gas1 yearGot the typical rubbish intro, crappy English, then they just cut off... something about energy or whatever!1 yearThey said they were from octopus energy and even mentioned my address, but when i asked them to prove who they were by telling me the name on the account, they just ended the call. Sounds like it could be a pretty sneaky scam, so watch out.Octopus Energy1 yearGot a call from someone claiming to be British Gas but when I asked for their account number, they couldn’t give me one. Definitely a scam.British Gas1 yearI got a call claiming to be from Octopus Energy, saying prices were going up. I asked them to send the details in the post, but they seemed clueless about what the post or the Royal Mail even are! Felt really dodgy.Octopus EnergyRoyal Mail1 yearThis was a scam for sure. The guy was pushy, asking for the owner's details. Heard the same voice calling from various numbers, really annoying.1 yearI got a call from someone saying they were with British Gas Ltd, same as my actual provider. They started going on about price hikes just like the other person mentioned here, but I’m locked into a 3 year deal with them so it didn’t add up. Definitely a scam trying to trick people.British Gas1 yearI got a call saying my electricity rates were increasing. When I mentioned I was locked into a three year deal, he claimed it didn’t matter since the government allowed it. I thought that was absolute nonsense and just ended the call. Total scammer!1 yearI got a call from a call centre pretending to be about my energy bill - total scam, be careful!1 yearGot a call saying they were from Scottish Power, but it didn’t feel right at all. Sounded dodgy to me, like a scam trying to get info or something. Watch out, don’t trust those numbers straight away!Scottish Power1 yearGot a call claiming to be from Octopus Energy, but it was definitely a scam. Watch out, they’re pretending to be the real company to trick people!Octopus Energy1 yearGot a call from someone pretending to be from the electricity company, they were asking loads of questions about my business, sounded like a total scam.1 yearGot a call from someone claiming to be Scottish Power, saying prices are going way up from tomorrow even though my tariff's fixed (they didn't mention the price exactly).
