Don't bother picking up if it’s this number. I’ve got a landline and they never bother to leave a voicemail, so it can’t really be that urgent.

They called me a few times but never left a voicemail, so I figured it must not be urgent. I usually just ignore calls from unknown numbers anyway.

Phone firms really should get some proper tech in place to block scammers faking real phone numbers. We just let the voicemail pick up calls these days - this one hung up after about six rings. Glad there’s sites like this that back up my doubts. Plus, like many others, I sent in my meter readings a fortnight ago before prices went up, so no use sending them again now!!

I’ve been wary of this number for a while, so I just don’t answer. They never leave a voicemail or anything. Pretty sure I’ve blocked it before as well.

This looks like a BG number but scammers might be faking it. It’s safer to check your account online. Honestly, having your account managed fully online makes things way easier and less stressful.

This number called me yesterday. It was some automated voice claiming to be British Gas and told me to press 1. If they really wanted me to read my meters, I don’t see why they’d not just say that straight away. Asking to press a button, which I’ve heard scammers use to get you onto an expensive line, seemed dodgy so I just ended the call.

03332029781 called me a few times before asking for meter readings. I usually submit mine online, but I checked this time and it actually was a legit British Gas number. Still, with all the scams going around now, you just can't be too careful.

The number actually belongs to British Gas, from what I've seen. I usually don't pick up, worried it might be spoofed. But I called back and got an automated message telling me a different number to dial for my meter readings. I did as instructed and had no trouble. They never asked me for any sensitive info like bank details or passwords.

This is actually a British Gas number, as far as I can tell. I usually don’t pick up just in case it’s been faked. But when I called back, there was an automated voice giving me a different number to call to submit my meter readings. I rang that number and it all went smoothly - they didn’t ask for any bank info or passwords or anything dodgy.

Missed the call and tried 1471 to find out who it was. Jotted down the number but it didn’t ring any bells, so I looked it up here. Seems like the reviews aren’t good and it might be linked to a scam, possibly involving British Gas (not confirmed though). Decided not to ring back. Cheers to who-called.co.uk for the useful info! Really helped me out.

Got a call from this number earlier today. It was an automated message saying it was from British Gas and told me to press any button. I figured it was a scam and just ended the call. Surely, if it was really British Gas, they wouldn’t leave such a vague message. I worry that an older person might follow the instructions and get caught out, which is exactly what these fraudsters want. It’s awful. This number needs checking and should be blocked if it’s not actually British Gas.

As far as I know, it’s legit. It’s an automated call from British Gas reminding you to submit your meter readings. They’ve been using this same number for years and usually leave a message on your landline ansaphone if you’ve got one.
