0800622838 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 0800622838 👆 is reported as a freephone contact for Scottish and Southern Energy (SSE) that connects to their customer service centre in Cape Town, South Africa. Despite SSE's acquisition by OVO, the number remains active with staff often described as poorly trained and working remotely. It is frequently used for billing disputes, including pursuing refunds, as it grants access to customer account details unlike emergency lines, which are less helpful. Some customers express frustration over poor service and claim the number is used for harassment, including unsolicited calls. While valuable for pressing complaints, callers should remain patient and composed, as the process can be taxing. Alternative numbers, such as business sales or emergency contacts, can be used if blocked.

I just got a call from someone saying they were from SSE about my electricity and gas.

This phone number belongs to Scottish and Southern Energy, though it’s rather misleading as it’s a freephone line that actually connects to their offices in Cape Town, South Africa, rather than anywhere in Scotland. Even with the supposed takeover by OVO, as of around October 2022, they still seem to be operating out of South Africa, where both their customer support and finance teams are located. I've encountered call handlers who appear to be inadequately trained and lack proper information; many of them are based at home, which makes it no surprise that both the number and SSE customers themselves are being used to pester others.

If you find yourself in a bit of a pickle with SSE, particularly if they're playing hardball over a refund for your credit, then this number is an absolute gem. It’s designed for those who might be feeling more vulnerable, but the crucial part is, the folks on the other end can tap into customer records and initiate refunds. Sure, you can try ringing their emergency lines, but I wouldn’t bank on that yielding much; they often lack access to the information you really need. The key here is to hit them where it counts - their pockets! Those emergency lines are just desperate for people not to tie them up. Frankly, SSE has shown themselves to be a bunch of disingenuous, cunning characters. You can't really wage a proper phone battle if you’re limited to an 0345 number, which is why this contact is like gold dust. Worried they might cut you off? If that happens, your best bet is to switch to the 0800 sales line or try another emergency contact. Make sure to have a speakerphone handy for those lengthy chats. Keep your cool - if you let frustration take over, you’ll just tire yourself out. A bit of a tipple might just be the ticket to keeping your spirits up!

I’ve been inundated with calls from Southern Electric on this number all morning long! My phone, 02392 795951, hasn’t had a moment’s peace since around 7am. It’s been non-stop ringing, and I’m starting to wonder what on earth is going on!
