08001978087 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 08001978087 👆 is reported as an automated follow-up survey call from British Gas, typically received shortly after contacting their customer service. Many users find it irritating due to silent calls, dropped calls, or no voicemail messages left. Some report multiple calls causing harassment concerns, particularly vulnerable individuals. While it's designed to collect feedback on recent interactions, there is confusion and suspicion of fraud, especially as some have received calls despite no recent contact or having opted out. Call blocking is a common response among users weary of unsolicited or persistent calls. Opting out during the initial British Gas call should prevent further contact. Overall, this number is linked to British Gas feedback requests but is often considered intrusive or unwelcome.

Got a robo call from British Gas wanting feedback (basically just fishing for free advice). Hit 1 and gave them a bit of my opinion - fingers crossed they actually listen this time.

I'm disabled and find it really hard to use the phone, so getting three silent calls from this number is really upsetting. Not happy at all!

Cheers for the earlier replies. I had just been sorting something with British Gas about an hour before, then this number called me. Didn’t pick up, but it’s probably just another sales call from them. Anyway, I’ll just block it now. If I were to complain to British Gas, I’d likely end up swearing a lot, so I’ll hold back on that!

This number kept ringing me three separate times and left three messages too. I had no clue who it was until I checked this website. Turns out I had called British Gas just yesterday, so it all adds up now. Honestly, they shouldn’t be bothering customers like that.

Like a lot of others have mentioned, I spoke to British Gas earlier and roughly an hour later got a ring from this number. I assumed it was them, and from the comments here, it seems I'm right. It’s so frustrating how British Gas keeps pestering people. Honestly, I can’t be bothered switching energy providers, but I might have to just to avoid this hassle.

I just got a recorded call saying if I press 1 it’s to leave feedback about a recent call. Thing is, I never rang British Gas since we’re with Haven, so it seems dodgy to me. Feels like some kind of scam to me.

Had a weird call claiming to be from British Gas, even though I’m actually with them. Honestly, don’t pick up or reply, especially if you’re already a customer since they’ve got all your info. Steer clear of British Gas as your energy provider if you can, it’s been nothing but hassle for me!

I called British Gas because I kept getting angry letters about bills from people who used to live here. They told me everything was paid up to date. Right after that, this number rang me and honestly, calling BG seems to bring up some sort of hassle, if you believe this site! Anyway, I’ve just blocked the number now.

I recently got in touch with British Gas because I'd been getting about seven annoying calls. They told me it wasn’t them and advised me not to pick up if the phone rings again. I hung up, and just a few minutes later, I got another call appearing as British Gas. I didn’t answer but decided to look it up here first. Honestly, this is starting to feel like harassment. I don’t think anyone should have to deal with this kind of thing. The caller is an Asian bloke who sounds really sharp and quite rude.

We recently ended our contract with British Gas and submitted the final meter reading, thinking everything was sorted. But then, this number 08001978087 called me, and the call was cut off instantly without even a ring. Good thing I looked the number up before calling back, or who knows what that would’ve turned into.

I noticed a missed call from this number with a voicemail notification on my phone, but when I checked, there was no actual message left. I reckon the person called, but hung up as soon as it went to voicemail. This happened shortly after I’d called B Gas on a separate 0800 number about moving the electricity account for a rental property to a new tenant. Sounds like what a few others here have mentioned too.

Received a call from this number, picked up but there was silence on the other end. Later on, they called again, but I just chose to ignore it. I had previously contacted British Gas and was eventually passed over to Sainsbury’s Energy, so not sure if it's connected.

Just after I'd finished a call with British Gas about my gas bill, this number rang me. I didn't pick up though, and they gave up as soon as my answerphone kicked in. No voicemail or anything, which isn't a shock. I’ve got an ex-directory phone and I’m on the TPS, so not sure what’s going on here.

I got a call from British Gas which was one of those feedback calls. They mentioned that if you haven’t chosen to opt-out when you talked to them before, they might ring you back. The call came from an automated system that also asked if I wanted to opt-out of getting any more of these calls. Just a heads up if you ever get one yourself!

Got a call from British Gas saying they switched me over to Sainsburys Energy back in August. They said my bill was emailed, but I never got it! I rang them just before Christmas asking for a paper copy. Finally got the bill through the post this morning. This phone number has kept ringing me nonstop since mid December, even though I only picked up today.

Got a call on our unlisted home number, no idea how they managed that. They were pushing us to pay a gas and electric bill right there on the phone. They seemed to have a fair bit of info about us but messed up the figure for the last bill. They started threatening legal steps over a bill that was just three days late. I called British Gas myself and they told me they hadn't made any such call and wouldn't even do that kind of call within a fortnight anyway.

This seemed to be a follow-up call after you reached out to them previously. It's merely a survey aiming to gauge your thoughts on how they handled your conversation!

I got a call not long after speaking with British Gas. When I used their automated service, it mentioned they might call back briefly to ask about my experience. I missed the call and they didn’t leave any voicemail. The odd thing is, I’m ex-directory, I called them with call barring activated, never shared my number with them, and I’m also registered with the TPS. So how on earth did they manage to get hold of my number?

This number belongs to a survey line from British Gas, calling to check how happy you are with their service, especially after I changed my billing details. When you ring it back, it gives you a different number to call if you want to stop getting these survey calls. What I do is save these numbers in my phone under a name, so I can easily decide if I want to pick up or just let it ring out.

Just had a chat with British Gas around 40 minutes ago. Their automated system inquires if you’d mind them reaching out post-call to gauge your thoughts on their customer service. If you hit 'No', you can rest easy knowing they won't pester you afterwards.
