08081446661 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 08081446661 👆 is reported as a company offering unsolicited "free" electrical safety inspections, primarily targeting elderly individuals through cold calls. While some have encountered courteous electricians and reliable service over many years, numerous comments warn of aggressive sales tactics and questionable practices involving high-pressure quotes for unnecessary work. Several accounts describe misleading behaviour, such as presenting false evidence of faults, fostering fear about home safety, and unverified identities, leading to suspicions of scams aimed at vulnerable customers. The company’s legitimacy is disputed, with concerns raised about potential insurance issues if recommended repairs are declined. Authorities have reportedly been notified about these practices. New visitors should exercise caution, verify credentials independently, and seek alternative trusted electrical professionals for safety checks.
Reports on phone number 08081446661
9 monthsI got a call from an electrician who wanted to do an electrical check. He was really nice and mentioned he’d been with the company for more than 20 years. He was local too, and the check went smoothly - everything was sorted fine. Definitely would recommend him!10 monthsI've called on their services quite a bit over the past two decades, always found them to be genuinely pleasant people to interact with.11 monthsI’ve just had an electrical inspection carried out by these guys, and I’ve been using their services for over 20 years now. Always had a good experience - friendly folks and their rates are reasonable too.1 yearSeems like a legit company, the electrician was quite friendly too.2 yearsI reckon these electrical firms are just after pensioners’ money with unnecessary jobs. They pop in, do a rushed, half-hearted check, then hand over a quote for stuff that probably doesn’t even need fixing. Feels like they might be scoping out the place for a break-in rather than fixing any real issues.4 yearsSome bloke called Peter Brook rang my father-in-law, who’s quite trusting, pretending to be an electrician. After chatting for a bit and sounding pretty believable, my father-in-law actually let him come round! He said there was some work that cost about £xxxx and warned of serious trouble if it wasn’t done. Honestly, we really should watch out more for the people we care about! 😠Peter Brook4 yearsSomeone popped up at my mum’s, gave her a quote and claimed a picture was of her fuse box. Turns out the photo wasn’t even of the right thing. Bit sus if you ask me.4 yearsI got a call from Electrical Safety Company Limited, they ring up elderly folks saying it’s time for their inspection. Then they hit them with a massive bill for supposedly doing repairs later on. Sounds really dodgy to me. I’ve already told Trading Standards about it. They might be a legit firm on paper, but what they’re doing ain’t right at all.Electrical Safety Company Limited4 yearsA dodgy person showed up at our house claiming to be from an electrical company, and they even had some paperwork that looked legit. But my daughter got suspicious, called the police after noticing a few things that didn’t add up, and it turned out to be a scam.8 yearsI received a rather unexpected cold call earlier today from someone named Eileen representing a company called Electrical Safety-though try as I might, I couldn't uncover any information about them. She was offering a complimentary, no-strings-attached inspection of my fusebox and a couple of sockets. Shortly after, I got another call from 01603 397930, likely to set up an appointment, but I decided against answering after seeing this discussion!EileenElectrical Safety8 yearsGot a call from electrical safety about checking if the installation was safe.8 yearsMy folks, who are quite advanced in age, have just experienced a similar issue. It appears that this company has a knack for preying on older individuals. I intend to conduct a thorough investigation to determine if any repairs are required. Consequently, I’m steering clear of this firm, as their habit of cold calling seniors raises serious red flags and gives off a rather dodgy vibe.8 yearsI would categorise this as a quasi-scam! It’s merely tradespeople marketing for business. My elderly parents, both in their eighties, were nearly duped by their pitch of a complimentary electrical safety check, which would likely have uncovered 'issues' that would entail hefty repairs. From what I can tell, these individuals are not endorsed by any utility provider, despite their suggestions otherwise, and seem to be targeting those who might be more susceptible to their tactics, convincing them they require costly electrical work. Don’t fall for it!9 yearsMy mother received a rather curious phone call today, claiming that a representative was in the vicinity. They rang her a mere twenty minutes prior to showing up and proceeded to have a look at her fusebox. Following their so-called inspection, they mentioned they'd send her a report detailing their findings. I've advised her to steer clear of any future communications from this outfit and to ignore any report that might arrive. Surprisingly, my mum seemed quite taken in by the whole thing, believing it to be entirely above board, despite my suspicions that it's nothing more than a con.9 yearsI received a phone call earlier today from that number, and the chap on the line introduced himself as David. He mentioned a complimentary electricity check, which struck me as rather intriguing. He appeared quite sincere, though one can never be too sure when speaking over the phone. Shortly after that, a young lady rang me to arrange an appointment; it seems they just happen to be in my neck of the woods tomorrow. Unfortunately, I had to politely decline as I've got other commitments. Now I'm left wondering what steps to take next. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Cheers, Mary M.DavidMary M10 yearsI received an unsolicited phone call offering a complimentary electrical safety assessment, which would cover the fusebox and a couple of sockets. If you consent to this inspection, they promise to ring you back from the number 01603397938. However, I found that when I tried to reach out, there was only an automated response, and no actual person picked up. Once you agree to the inspection, they inform you that any necessary repairs will incur charges, and failing to complete these repairs could result in your insurance being rendered void. They claim that the electrician is a former employee of the regional electricity service. For any emergencies after 6 in the evening in East Anglia, you're told to contact 07825794045, though I'm unsure of a separate contact number for other areas in the country.East Anglia10 yearsBeware of fraudulent cold callers targeting older folks with phony offers for 'complimentary' electrical inspections.Submit Your Own Report (0808 144 6661)
