I received an automated phone call today, supposedly from Anglian Water. Surprisingly, they called my work's direct line and were asking for someone I don't know at all. The call abruptly ended after that. It's puzzling because this number is not associated with a residential address, so I have no idea how they acquired it.

Legitimate employees of Anglian Water are familiar with this service and will patiently await your confirmation of their identity. Please don't hesitate to double-check; there is no need to feel embarrassed.

Over the past two weeks, Anglican Water has consistently flooded me with text messages and phone calls, despite my clear explanation via email that I am not their customer and do not reside in their vicinity. As a Northumbrian Water customer, this relentless contact from Anglican Water is becoming increasingly frustrating. Today, I experienced further irritation with their calls originating from this particular number. It's high time this situation is resolved.

Someone from Anglia Water supposedly called me but it’s definitely not their number (I confirmed with Anglia Water and they say I don’t owe anything). They’ve rang me loads of times and left voicemails asking for my bank info to settle a bill I don’t have. Since my number is unlisted, I reckon they got my details illegally. If they ring after 25th May again, they’ll be breaching GDPR for sure.

After receiving multiple calls from this number today, I decided to contact the helpline at W. Unfortunately, their assistance was quite unhelpful. As a result, I took the proactive step of registering my phone with TPS in order to prevent any future marketing calls. I remain hopeful that this initiative will be successful.

Be cautious, as this might be a scam. You should notify Ofcom about this nuisance call, especially if you are registered with the Telephone Preference Service (TPS). It is important to report these attempts, as they are in violation of the regulations.

The contact number provided belongs to a debt collection service for Anglian Water. However, it has been found to be invalid, and therefore it is essential for Anglian Water to take necessary measures in order to prevent this kind of activity.

Why do Anglian Water have a pointless robot answering calls? I have a message for Anglian Water: Please show some respect and treat people like humans. It's time to get rid of these ineffective automated calls. They are more annoying than a bothersome fly.

Around a week ago, I made a payment to Anglian Water; however, they have continued to contact me with automated calls which are incredibly irritating. The automated system prompts you to provide your banking details for payment confirmation. If you attempt to speak with a customer adviser by inducing an error, the system simply directs you back to the automated service. Whoever came up with this method should be strongly reprimanded. It has left me extremely frustrated and I am determined to avoid any future dealings with Anglian Water due to this unacceptable practice.

I keep receiving calls from a number with an automated voice claiming to be Anglian Water, asking for Mr. Smith (although that is not my name). The voice instructs me to press 1 if I am indeed "Mr. Smith", or press 2 if I am not. Despite hanging up multiple times, I finally pressed 2. However, they then requested that I ask "Mr. Smith" to call 0800524762!
