08003685452 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 08003685452 👆 is reported as linked to persistent scam activity involving false claims of debt from a defunct energy company, Extra Energy. Callers and texters use official-looking letters and multiple numbers, often with foreign accents, to intimidate recipients into providing bank details or making payments. Despite referencing genuine administrators, no credible proof of debt or account details is given, and many report aggressive or rude conduct. Older people and those unfamiliar with the situation are particularly vulnerable. Official takeovers by Scottish Power mean outstanding debts should not exist, yet fraudulent calls and texts continue, sometimes using data from previous customers. Recipients are advised not to respond or share personal information and consider changing numbers if harassed. Verification via official channels and caution is strongly recommended.

Seems like a clever way to make cash by buying customer details from Extra Energy! If you’ve handed over any cash to this fake company, get in touch with your bank and try to get your money back. Automated scams like these are really becoming a massive problem.

Got two texts from them over a couple of months saying I owed cash, but I was suspicious since Scottish Power took over my account after the company went under. So I just ignored the calls. They even sent a letter to my home. So heads up!!!! Luckily I found this forum, coz older folks might easily get tricked, especially when a letter turns up - makes it seem legit to anyone who doesn’t know better.

These people are just crooks who got your number with no other details! It’s much safer not to share your bank info over the phone. I mean, if you’re gonna give it away, might as well do it face-to-face with a stranger, at least you see who you’re dealing with - a bit of a consolation, right? Plus, they claim to be some recovery agency, but all they’ve got is your phone number, nothing else. It’s just pathetic!

I've been receiving calls about owing £32. When I rang back, the person sounded like they were abroad. I requested a paper bill so I can sort it out, but I'm confused as to why they're contacting me now, especially since my account was transferred to Scottish Power. All my bills with them should be cleared. They claim the charge is for the period from 14th to 24th November, roughly ten days. This is from Extra Energy. I've already had two written reminders plus loads of calls and texts.

Just received a text saying they’d emailed me about a final bill from Extra Energy. Didn’t get any email so I rang them up and they sent me a link to a bill. But it was for £1200! I told them I’d better check things out cos it seemed dodgy - I pay by direct debit every month and shouldn’t owe anything. Either it’s a scam or their admin is seriously messed up.

My account was switched over half a year ago, and I've asked loads of times for meter readings and the specific period this random bill covers. But I get nowhere - just some statement that's impossible to understand. Now they want me to cough up £643 without showing any proof I actually owe it. Plus, they're really rude and quite threatening!

Just got the third message from this number. To be safe, I rang it from work. If you call outside business hours or press any options, it goes straight to Scottish Power. But you shouldn’t select any options because that gets you through to the administrators for Extra Energy, who, like many have mentioned, are chasing payments from ages ago for Extra Energy. They might still be contacting the wrong people or not have the right info, and they’ve definitely managed this terribly. Still, it seems to be genuine now.

Got a text saying it’s from Extra Energy, but I’ve never had a bill from them and last time I checked I was actually a bit in credit! I’m not replying, just sent them an email to ask what's going on. Don’t see why anyone would pay anything without actually getting a proper bill first?

I’ve got a couple of letters saying I owe money for a house I haven’t lived in for over two years. None of the bills were in my name, they were all in my ex’s name. I’ve talked to him and he says he sorted the last bill, but I’m still the one getting these horrible letters. I’ve tried calling the number but they just cut me off before I can talk to anyone. Can someone please tell me this is just a scam and there’s nothing to stress about? 😭😭

Just got my second follow-up from Extra Energy, full of threats and all that. I was pretty convinced it's a scam from the start, mainly because I've never signed up with them (bit obvious, really) and also they never mentioned how much I supposedly owe. Surely if they’re claiming you owe cash, they have to say the exact amount, right? Anyway, all their letters are headed straight for the bin and I’ll be blocking their number too.

I got a second reminder from Extra Energy demanding some unknown sum and threatening debt recovery, so I rang 0800 368 6552 to find out what I supposedly owe. I was careful about what info I shared and questioned the charge. I asked to speak to a supervisor (with an Irish accent) who said they’d email me to confirm my account is paused and they won’t be pursuing the debt further. I’m pretty sure I don’t owe anything, so I’m hoping this will just die down. If this isn’t a scam, it seems like the PwC administrators hired rubbish agencies with wrong info chasing lots of fake debts.

I managed to clear up the issue with the supposed 'debt' by dropping them an email at: [email protected][###], attaching the papers I still had that proved I didn’t owe anything. I also gave them a ring on 08009534774. The folks who picked up were based in the UK and actually listened, trying to sort things out. Hope it helps!

Got a letter on 13 March from Extra Energy, looked a bit dodgy with weird colours on the BACs code and stuff. Then this morning I got a call from someone claiming to be Extra Energy, saying I owed money. When I asked where they were calling from, they said South Africa! I told them I moved away 4 years ago and don't owe anything. She just said have a nice day and hung up. Definitely seems like a scam, hope no one falls for it. Checked the FreePhone number here and it confirmed what I thought. Cheers for that!

I got a letter dated 14th March as well. I rent out my place and had some dodgy tenants before, so I assumed it was about them not paying their bills. I finally managed to get through because I didn’t want the new tenants to get into any trouble. But when the person couldn’t find the dates or amounts and then asked for my name, I said surely you already have it since you sent the letter. She said she’d phone me back, but after reading this, I won’t be picking up any calls or stressing about my current tenants. It’s been such a headache, I was worried sick all weekend.

I got the same letter with the same date and it's really worrying. Seems like someone has shared info from that company CO Extra Energy that’s no longer operating. We left that house over 2 years back and cleared our bill, actually they owed us money which we got back. Definitely feels like a con.

Got a letter from Extra Energy asking for payment for a service I never had at a place I moved out of 5 years back. Rang this number and was stuck on hold for half an hour. The call centre was in India. The woman who finally picked up wasn’t much help at all. In the end, she gave me an email to get in touch with since she said there were no managers or proper customer service available. She seemed pretty lost, just like me. I’ve never been a customer of theirs or Scottish Power. I’ll just send any more letters back to sender if they keep coming.

This definitely seems like a con, and judging by the victims, quite a few are students - looks like they’ve targeted younger folks. My lad’s never had any utility accounts like electricity or gas, since he still lives with us. So it’s strange why he’d be linked to Extra Energy. What’s really concerning is that they knew we’d shifted from our old place and found us at our new home.

I got a letter dated 14th March and rang the number on it (wish I had checked this site first!). After waiting on hold for a bit, I spoke to someone who didn’t bother to give his name or any usual call centre details. All he wanted was the account number from the letter and some sort of "security info". I got pretty suspicious then, so I told him again I don’t have any account with extraenergy and there’s no security info to give. He just said “ignore the letter” and hung up on me. Feels like a total scam, and now I’m worried they’ve got my phone number too.

Got a letter today dated 14th March claiming I owe money, but I’m certain I don’t! It was addressed to my partner even though the account was in my name, relating to a tenancy from three years back. I took final meter readings and settled the bill, so it left me puzzled why we got this. I rang the number on the letter and got cut off three times before someone finally picked up. They insisted I owe £1300 from 1st September to 30th September - in the same month! Plus, the account number they gave doesn’t match my original one at all. Still sorting this out.

Got a letter through the door today claiming I owe cash to Extra Energy, but I’m sure I don’t! I’ve always kept up with my payments, and since Scottish Power took over, I pay them.

Just got a letter today dated 14th March, supposedly from Extra Energy, saying I owe money for an electricity bill from an old place from like 3 years back. Like others have said, the account number doesn’t match mine and we paid everything off when we left. The letter has Extra Energy’s logo and looks genuine, but seems fishy since I heard the company went into administration. I rang the number but got disconnected shortly after a hold message. Bit worried now as I reckon they’ve got my number and will keep ringing. Something feels off about this whole thing!

We used to be customers but switched providers before Extra Energy folded. Now they’re trying to get money out of us without giving any written evidence, saying their online system isn’t working yet.
