This number 01231763994 keeps calling me but I don’t pick up. The caller ID says it’s from Cyprus or something, not sure. Seems a bit suspicious so I’d avoid answering.

Got a call from British Gas about renewing Homecare I ended more than 2 years ago. Even though my number’s on the TPS, they keep ringing. I’m thinking of reporting this to the ICO.

Got another call from British Gas, bloody harassment as usual. I don’t even pick up often but my answerphone is always packed with messages. After dropping a fortune on a new boiler this year, all they do is keep bothering me. Bet they’re just tryna push some extra warranty or whatever. Honestly, just leave me be.

British Gas is at it again! I've told them straight up to quit calling me but they just ignore it. They promised me they'd stop but nothing's changed. Honestly, such a terrible company.

Absolutely, British Gas! I recently had my boiler inspected, and they insisted that I required a new one installed. What a load of nonsense! My local heating engineer said otherwise. The only way to put an end to these incessant calls is to reach out to the Information Commissioner's Office, or ICO for short. They've got an easy-to-navigate online form for complaints. They possess the authority to investigate, impose fines, and even issue enforcement notices. Trust me, they do hand out fines! If you don’t take action, British Gas will keep pestering you for eternity, and perhaps even beyond that! I’ve been down this road before.

I've just had a call from British Gas, which I found a bit amusing, as I've recently terminated my boiler insurance with them after nearly a decade. It seems to be one of those Mr. Singh chaps they employ. They really do start to get jittery when they think you're about to voice a complaint! In all honesty, I've managed to snag a significantly better deal from a local heating specialist. I reckon I need to block this number right away, otherwise, I’ll be inundated with daily interruptions.

I’ve just had a call from British Gas, which is rather interesting as I’ve recently terminated my boiler cover after nearly a decade. It seems to be those Mr. Singh lads featured on the Asia map giving me a ring. I've switched to a far more advantageous arrangement with my local heating engineer, so I really don't want to be contacted by them anymore. It’s a constant nuisance, and I reckon it’s best to put a stop to it now before it turns into an endless saga of phone calls!

I usually keep my old answerphone switched on nonstop. Most callers just drop the line when it kicks in, apart from some robot-style calls. Odd to find out it was British Gas Homecare, since I actually rang them earlier today to sort a renewal. What’s going on with them?

I've received calls from this number on two occasions now, and shockingly, one came shortly after I informed them that the resident of the household unfortunately passed away. If you're using a Panasonic phone, there's a handy feature that allows you to block numbers you prefer not to engage with; it simply alerts the caller without bothering you.

They texted me saying they urgently need to talk about my agreement, then rang the next day. When I phoned them to ask what it was regarding, they said they weren’t really sure but it was probably about my service being due. Urgent? I don’t think so!

British Gas have been hasslin me for weeks now even after I told them to stop callin as I'm at work and don’t want to renew the homecare. It’s bordering on harassment and Clare Miles, their MD, should sort it out. Wonder how she'd feel if I kept calling her all day at work! Here are some of the calls I’ve had: 1/2/16 - 15:59, 10/2/16 - 11:33, 12/2/16 - 14:47, 29/2/16 - 10:27, 29/2/16 - 19:41, 2/3/16 - 10:40, 3/3/16 - 11:40.
