Phone number ☎️ 08000728625 👆 is reported as a number frequently used by scammers impersonating British Gas or other energy suppliers. Callers often persistently pressure recipients to disclose contract details, renew agreements prematurely, or risk disconnection threats. Many describe the calls as originating from individuals with strong accents and employing aggressive sales tactics. Though the number appears genuine, it is commonly spoofed, making it important not to trust caller ID alone. Recipients advise never to share personal or account information and to independently verify any claims with their energy provider.

Users are urged to remain vigilant, avoid engagement, and report suspicious activity to protect against these persistent scams.

5 monthsThey kept asking if I was the house owner, but I didn’t reply. Eventually, I told them to stop calling me.5 monthsJo got a call from a woman claiming to be from an energy and insulation firm. She ended up telling a few of their offices that she had no clue who they were after they asked. She also mentioned she didn't know how they managed to get a blocked number. Asked them nicely to take her number off their list and not ring again.Jo5 monthsGot a call claiming to be from British Gas, but definitely a scam. Don’t trust it!British Gas5 monthsSCAM Got a call saying they were British Gas Lite, trying to warn me about some sudden rise in prices. Definitely felt dodgy.SCAMBritish Gas Lite7 monthsGot a call from someone claiming to be Eon wanting to schedule a meter reading. Turns out, they’re just fishing for when my contract finishes. I refused to share any details and they just ended the call. This keeps happening with loads of different numbers, none of which belong to Eon. They're unbelievably annoying, carrying on like this even after I told them I know they’re not Eon!Eon7 monthsgot a call from a guy with an indian accent who said he was from british gas about our electric bill. it all felt a bit dodgy. he mentioned something about me having an independent energy broker, but i didn’t want to chat and ended the call. he kept calling back twice more and i just cut them off each time. these scam calls are so annoying!!9 monthsGot a call from someone claiming to be British Gas lite about the price cap changes. Thing is, I've got a third party handling my energy, and I'm locked into a FIXED contract for ages. Totally a scam, don’t fall for it. Stay alert, folks!British Gas10 monthsTotal rip-off!10 monthsGot a call at work from some scammer. I didn’t even stick around to find out what kind of nonsense they were selling.12 monthsGot a call from someone pretending to be British Gas, said my electric was gonna be cut off if I didn’t pay up. Proper scare tactics, sounded dodgy to me.British Gas1 yearGot a call today, supposedly from my energy provider, but I'm pretty sure it's a scam.1 yearI was chatting with some dodgy Indian caller when I suddenly felt the urge to let one go. Tried to be courteous, so I just farted right down the phone to him.India1 yearThey called claiming to be from British Gas, pushing us to renew the contract. Felt pretty dodgy to me.British Gas1 yearGot a call from a number linked to Voxbone SA, but they were acting like it was British Gas. Then, they rang again using some tech that faked the caller ID to make it look like British Gas. Dodgy behaviour if you ask me!British GasVoxbone SA1 yearIf you get a call from 0800 072 8625, it’s definitely British Gas on the other end.British Gas2 yearsGot a call claiming there was suspicious activity on my bank card from some security team. They had a recorded message telling me to press 2 to chat with someone. When I did, a guy with a strong Indian accent answered but struggled with English, making it hard to understand him. After a bit of going back and forth with no progress, he just hung up on me. Sounds like a classic scam to me.2 yearsSomeone called me saying my loft insulation was dodgy and might cause lung cancer. Bit worrying, to be honest.3 yearsI had to call the British Gas support line earlier, and it was quite the experience! They were actually pretty helpful, although took me a bit to get through. Hopefully sorted now.British Gas3 yearsJust to add, the number 08000728625 is definitely a legit British Gas contact. But they won’t ring you out of the blue as they usually only call back if you’ve reached out first. So if this number shows up on your phone and you haven’t called them, it’s probably been faked - like a masked caller ID trick. Chances are someone else, maybe from abroad like India, is behind it and it’s dodgy. Best thing to do? Hang up straight away.British GasIndia3 yearsReceived an unwanted call, but there was no one on the other end. Totally frustrating!3 yearsI received a rather dubious phone call from someone claiming to be from "British Gas," insisting that I needed to agree to a new contract over the phone by half past two this afternoon, despite the fact that I still have a good six months remaining on my existing fixed tariff. Clearly, this is nothing more than a scam!British Gas4 yearsHad loads of calls from British Gas Lite, folks like Richard Hamilton, Peter Mallard, and James Cooper keep ringing me non-stop. They phone so often, sometimes several times within an hour, it’s proper relentless. When you do pick up, they just keep going and going, it’s exhausting. Even get calls from some company called Utility Savers, sounds like the same scam. Honestly, it’s so frustrating it almost makes me want to cry.British Gas LitePeter MallardJames CooperRichard Hamilton4 yearsThis bloke with an Indian accent claiming he's from British Gas keeps ringing me, saying I gotta renew my electricity contract, but it's not even up for another year. I ended the call straight away, but he just won't stop calling back.British Gas4 yearsGot a call from some bloke with an Indian accent from 08000 728625 claiming to be with British Gas, wanting to chat about our electricity deal. I said we’re locked in until Nov 2024, then told him he was a scammer and cut him off. He phoned back, threatening to keep the line busy until I spoke to him, so I told him exactly what I thought and dropped the call again. This is the fifth time he’s called this morning and it’s not even 10am yet. Proper pain!British Gas4 yearsGot a call from 08000 728625, some bloke claiming to be with British Gas wanting to chat about our electricity deal. I told him we’re locked in until November 2024 and called him a scammer, then he cut me off. Shortly after, he rang back threatening to keep us tied up on the phone until we listened. I told him exactly what I thought and hung up once more. So far, he’s phoned me five times just this morning before 10am!British Gas4 yearsReceived a rather dodgy call from someone posing as British Gas, insisting I either sign up for a contract or my energy supply would be terminated. Quite relentless in their approach, I must say. I've gone ahead and reported this to the Telephone Preference Service, as it's clearly some sort of scam. Be wary, everyone!British GasTelephone Preference Service4 yearsSomebody called up saying their name was Richard Hamilton from the Scottish Power business dept or something. Total load of rubbish if you ask me!Scottish PowerRichard Hamilton4 yearsGot calls from 08000 728625 claiming to be British Gas - honestly, the pressure was insane. They kept threatening that they'd cut off my supply if I didn’t sign up that very day and warned about price hikes if I didn’t agree. Every time I told them no, the calls came back like every two minutes! Proper annoying and really pushy, definitely not a nice way to treat someone.British Gas4 yearsThey said they’d stop my supply but they’re not British Gas, it’s some company called Brookers. Proper dodgy!British Gas4 yearsHonestly, I’m fed up with these calls. I probably get about 30 or 40 every day, always from a new number. I block them all, but it doesn’t help. I’m on the TPS list as well, but that seems to be totally useless.TPS5 yearsI got calls from a number that looked like it was from the British Gas Priority Services Register, but I can tell you, it definitely wasn’t British Gas on the other end. So don’t just blindly trust the number showing up as they’re just scammers trying to trick you.British Gas5 yearsSteer clear of this number 0800 072 8625! They kept ringing me non stop, probably over thirty times straight just because I didn’t wanna respond to their questions. They claim to be connected to Eon, but honestly they’re just scammers or some dodgy brokers. The guy I talked to was really rude, shouted loads and even cursed at me. Proper awful experience!EON5 yearsGot a call from some bloke claiming he was Kevin from British Gas, said there was a mistake with my bill and they needed to send a guy round to read the meter. I said alright but when he asked to confirm the meter number I told him I'd ring British Gas myself. He said there'd be a 30 to 40 minute wait. So I went online and started a chat with British Gas, and they said they had no record of any meter reads or calls from anyone. Sounds like another dodgy scam call, this kind of thing happens to me almost every week!KevinBritish Gas5 yearsThey claimed to be from British Gas, but honestly, I could barely make out what they were saying.BritishGas5 yearsGot a call from a man saying he was from British Gas, telling me they needed my meter number or my electricity would be disconnected due to some technical problem. When I said I'd call back myself to double-check, he got all rude and started asking for my name and job role, threatening I’d be to blame if the power went off. I just said thanks and hung up. Later, I called British Gas using the number on my bill, and they said it definitely wasn’t them, plus they wouldn’t ask for info like that over the phone, only through the post.British Gas6 yearsReceived a dodgy call from someone claiming to be from British Gas. They mentioned in a letter that if I wanted a large print, braille, or audio version, I should ring them up at 080007228625 at no charge. Sounds a bit fishy, doesn't it?British GasSubmit Your Own Report (0800 072 8625)
