7 yearsGot a call from 03457174299 claiming to be law advisors for EON, telling me my electricity deal needed renewing. Seriously, what’s the regulator doing to stop these scams?EON7 yearsGot a call from someone saying they're with British Gas, telling me my electricity deal is nearly up. I've had loads of calls like that from numbers claiming they work for EON too, trying to suss out who my supplier is. Best not to give them any info.British GasEon7 yearsGot calls from someone pretending to be Eon, and they're so annoying, ringing me like 3 times within just a few minutes. They keep blowing up my phone all day long, really pushy!E. ON7 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Asian accent claiming she was from EON, telling me my contract was about to run out. I told her we don’t have a contract with EON and she just ended the call. Definitely a scam.EON7 yearsI got a call from someone who sounded Asian, said he was with EON and had Ofcom's go ahead to set me up with a smart meter. He kept insisting I needed a bill sorted. I told him straight up he was trying to scam me and then he hung up. We don’t even have EON, it's a different company on our account, plus we already have a smart meter installed!EONOfcom7 yearsThis bloke said he was from the EON renewals team, totally made up! He even threatened to take me to court lol. I just told him I couldn't wait for that and then he quickly ended the call :PEON7 yearsGot a call from some bloke claiming he was with British Gas, then he asked if I was the boss of the place I work at. Was pretty weird tbh!British Gas7 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from an energy supplier we don’t use, saying our electricity would be disconnected! The woman on the line suddenly handed the phone over to a man who started rattling off terms and conditions. Before that, she said in a really threatening voice, “Please co-operate.” Who on earth talks like that if they’re legit? After we hung up, they called straight back and when we didn’t answer, they left the phone ringing forever. Definitely a scam if I’ve ever seen one!7 yearsGot a call from someone claiming they were with Eon, but it was clear that wasn’t true.Eon7 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from Eon about our electricity usage and bill. When I asked when we last settled the account, they couldn’t give me an answer. I told them we’re not actually Eon customers, and they tried to find out who our provider is. I said that a genuine company wouldn’t be asking stuff like that. So, I ended the call nicely and blocked the number straight away.Eon7 yearsThey've rung me three times in as many days. The first time, I spent ages convincing them they weren’t being dishonest. On the second call, after chatting for about five minutes, I put them on hold pretending to pass them to my manager - they waited on the line for another five minutes! The third time, the bloke’s English was so messy I couldn’t make out a word, so I just replied with nonsense mumbling. Quite amusing really.7 yearsThis week I got four calls from a guy claiming to be Eon, but I’m not even with Eon! He’s an Asian bloke and honestly, he’s so irritating it’s driving me mad. Wish he’d just stop calling!Eon7 yearsGot a call from a guy who said he was with EON, trying to switch our electricity deal. He kept pushing for my email and address, real pushy about it. I told the chap we don’t even use EON, but he kept asking for security details like mad. Definitely a scam, wouldn’t trust it.EON7 years03457174299 Got a call from someone with a really hard-to-understand Indian accent saying our EDF contract was about to end. Thing is, we don’t even deal with EDF at all. When I asked them to name our company, they just didn’t have a clue. All they kept doing was insisting we were with EDF, over and over. Then they tried to find out who supplies us, but I kept quiet. Honestly, what kind of rubbish scam is this? Surely, if this number is legit, it should be shut down because it doesn’t even show up when I try calling back.EDF7 yearsGot a call from a guy with an Asian accent claiming he was from eon, but I don’t think he actually was. He was going on about installing smart meters and when I told him I wasn’t interested, he said they’re mandatory. Then he called me stupid and just cut the call. Proper rude!E. ON7 yearsI got a call saying they were from British Gas, telling me our contract was ending soon. I told them we actually use Eon. Then the same number rang back, this time pretending to be Eon and said the same thing about our contract ending. I replied we weren't with Eon but Scottish Power. Then that same number called again claiming to be Scottish Power. I've asked them over and over to stop ringing me but they just keep going. They’re really pushy, aggressive and obviously trying to scam. I’m surprised Ofcom isn’t stepping in to put an end to this constant harassment.British GasEonScottish PowerOfcom7 yearsI got a call from someone named Kamal saying he was from EON, and I had to tell him to buzz off like four times before he gave up... but guess what? He still called back! 😂 When I asked for their website, he didn’t have one! Then I pushed for their address and all he could say was Manchester. So I asked again and he said something like Unit 0, North Street, but couldn’t give me a postcode or anything. Honestly, just a complete waste of my time and super irritating.KamalEONManchesterNorth St.7 yearsSo this bloke calls saying our British Gas electricity deal is ending soon - well, that’s three fibs all in one go! I called him out right away, said he was making it up. Then he claims they’ve got my name on their system, but apparently I’m 'Sarah' - total rubbish! He tried to cover it up saying it must be some kind of mix-up. Yeah right, like I’m daft enough to fall for that!British GasSarah7 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be our electric company, tryna sell us a deal. Pretty sneaky if you ask me.7 yearsGot a call from some guy sounding Asian, hard to understand and super pushy trying to sell me stuff. He was fibbing about who I already get my service from. Pretty sure it was a scam, just fishing for info. I blocked the number straight away but they keep popping up with different fake numbers. OFCOM really needs to crack down on these scammers!OFCOM7 yearsGot called by a bloke speaking with an Asian accent, third time now from this number. I've told him to stop but they keep ringing.7 yearsThis number, 03457174299, has been ringing me loads today, like five times just today itself, and it's been doing the same on other days too. I told them to stop ringing me, yet they kept on calling back immediately. The bloke on the other end started shouting, saying he was from my energy supplier and my contract had ended. Honestly, it was all just rubbish and complete lies.7 yearsSeriously, don’t ever pick up calls from those joker numbers!!!7 yearsJust got a call supposedly about our E-on contract, but as we don’t use E-on they hung up straight away - seemed like a total phishing attempt.E7 yearsJust like others have pointed out, these lot keep ringing non stop, claiming they must fit a smart meter. They pretend to be from various companies and ask for details. Proper annoying how they keep at it.7 yearsGot a call from this number on both my phone and my home line, but they didn’t leave any voicemail or anything. Feeling a bit anxious, hoping it’s not linked to my boy’s stuff!7 yearsThey keep ringing our office nonstop, claiming to be from either E-on or npower, depending on which supplier they assume we've got. Their excuse is that they need to 'verify our supply', then they launch into reading out their contract terms. Honestly, best thing is to not agree to a thing, just hang up straight away and block the number. They're really stubborn and tend to call from different numbers when they don't get through.Submit Your Own Report (0345 717 4299)
