Reports on phone number 08081648282
3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from Bulb saying I was due a refund for my energy bill. Sounded dodgy to me, like one of those scams trying to get your bank details. Definitely not falling for that one!Bulb3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from Bulb, trying to pull a dodgy energy scam on me. Definitely a fake!Bulb3 yearsAvoid making any payments to this number; it’s undoubtedly a scam. You can still access your Bulb account if necessary. For any further questions or clarity, don't hesitate to reach out to your new energy provider, Octopus Energy, who has taken over Bulb.BulbOctopus Energy3 yearsI've been getting all these charges on my account, and the phone number they keep providing seems to be linked to some sort of energy scam.3 yearsIt’s clearly a scam! I’ve never been a customer of "Bulb," yet they are demanding £350 from me. I plan to report this to the police bright and early tomorrow.Bulb3 yearsI stumbled upon a firm I've never come across previously: Bulb Energy. I'm getting some dodgy vibes here-could it be a scam?Bulb Energy3 yearsGot two letters today meant for someone who doesn’t live here, saying they owe £2,000 for energy bills at a different place. They say it’s from Bulb, but the contact number they gave definitely isn’t one of theirs. Seems fishy to me.Bulb3 yearsGot a letter about debt collection sent to my place but for someone I don't know. It said to get in touch quick to stop legal stuff happening. The email they included wasn't from Bulb either, so I'm sure it's dodgy. Chucked it straight in the bin.Bulb3 yearsGot two letters just now saying they’d take me to court… using the wrong name and address. They had QR codes too, but they didn’t actually work. They claim this number is Bulb’s freephone, but it absolutely isn’t.Bulb3 yearsThis was definitely a scam, nothing to do with Bulb.Bulb3 yearsI got a letter saying it was from Bulb, but it was addressed to someone who’s never lived at my flat. There were loads of dodgy things about the letter. It had a phone number on it, so I called Bulb just to check, and they told me straight away it was a scam.Bulb3 yearsI got a letter claiming to be from Bulb but it was sent to a person who’s never lived here. Loads of stuff about it didn’t seem right. They included a phone number for contact, but when I called Bulb directly, they said it was a scam.Bulb3 yearsGot 2 letters from Blub, definitely a scam if you ask me.Blub3 yearsNever believe random cold calls or mails that come out of nowhere. Its best to always log into your online account and get in touch with customer service through the number that's listed there. These days, scammers are faking real business phone numbers, which causes a lot of trouble for both companies and their clients.3 yearsI’m with Bulb and got a strange letter that was meant for someone else who apparently lived at my address before but never did. The letter said I owed money for energy usage and threatened legal action. What made me wary was that I got two identical letters on the same day, which seemed odd. After spotting the negative reviews about the phone number here, I reported it as a scam through my Bulb online account. But it ended up being a genuine mistake caused by a mix-up inside Bulb - now it’s all been cleared up! So that phone number seems legit after all.Bulb3 yearsTotally dodgy! Got a letter about some bulb payments, but it’s definitely not from their debt collectors. The stamp on the envelope saying it’s legit? Just scammers trying to fool folks once more... be careful!3 yearsThis seems like one of those dodgy energy scams. I'm not sure how they ended up with my mum's address, but she used to be with Bulb, so maybe there's been a leak somewhere. The letter they sent had an address that’s not Bulb’s real office, plus the phone number was 0300 something, which felt off. It’s really easy to get fooled by it, so best not to ring them at all.Bulb3 yearsI got this number from Bulb’s debt collection team after emailing their customer support about my account, which I’ve been sorting out for some time. When I rang, the person on the other end checked my account and reviewed my past emails with Bulb. They never requested my bank information or asked me to transfer any funds. Also, during the call, I received an email from an official Bulb address to confirm things. So, I can assure you this isn’t a dodgy number.Bulb4 yearsGot a text from 08081648282 saying it was Bulb, then an email after, both just using my first name, saying I owed them money as I’d supposedly left Bulb. I haven’t even left Bulb and my account’s actually got a credit balance (which is rare for me!). How on earth did they manage to get my name, mobile, and email? ** Avoid ringing the number from the text or email, it’s dodgy. **Bulb4 yearsThis number seems to belong to Bulb for debt collection purposes.Bulb4 yearsHad a missed call pop up on my iPhone from what looked like the official Bulb number (0303 303 0635). They left a voicemail urging me to ring 0808 1648282 about some discount on my energy bills. It’s a bit dodgy how they spoof the number, making you believe it’s really Bulb. Fortunately, the message was full of errors, got my name and stuff wrong, so it was pretty clear it was a scam.Bulb4 yearsI keep receiving incessant nuisance calls from this number. It’s becoming quite bothersome!4 yearsI got an email purportedly from Bulb energy, asking me to settle my bills and directing me to ring this number. Seems like a scam to me!Bulb4 yearsJust got an email supposedly from Bulb Payments saying my direct debit didn't go through, which is rubbish because I know it did. The message had a link to update my payment info, and the phone number they gave was the same as the one mentioned here. But when I looked up Bulb's real customer service number on their site, it starts with 0303, so this is totally a scam for sure.Bulb4 yearsDidn’t get a call, but received an email saying I owed money on my energy bill. The email asked me to ring this number to sort it out - pretty clear it’s a scam.4 yearsI got a bunch of texts saying they were from Bulb, telling me I hadn’t paid my last bill since I supposedly left. They wanted me to ring a certain number. Total scam - I’m still with Bulb, they had the wrong name, and my account shows nothing owed. I actually work in financial crime myself! So I didn’t bother calling. Stay clear of this number, don’t pick up the phone for it.Bulb4 yearsThey've tried to trick me on 3 different occasions. Twice it happened back in 2021 - once via a letter and once over the phone. The most recent was on 25th May 2022, again by letter. They told me to ring 08081648282 to settle a supposed outstanding bill, but I’d already paid it weeks earlier. Total scam! Don’t freak out if you get random calls or letters about bills, just get in touch with your actual supplier instead. Never share your details with anyone suspicious.4 yearsI've received a notification from Bulb Energy claiming that I have an outstanding balance with them, but to be honest, I'm certain I don't owe anything.Bulb Energy4 yearsSo this guy called Ability Devraj from Bulb rang me up. He only called me Ann, didn’t ask for my surname or anything, so I just hung up. Later, I got an email from him - don’t ask me how he even got my address! I was sure it was dodgy. The number he told me to ring back on was +448081648282. Totally a scam if you ask me.DevrajBulbAnn4 yearsThese lot said they were from Bulb Energy, but as far as I know, Bulb went bust a while ago. They kept saying I owed them money, which is strange considering I've got prepayment meters set up here, so I can't see how that adds up.Bulb Energy4 yearsI got a letter saying I owed money for an energy bill and to ring this number, but I don’t actually live there. Pretty confusing!5 yearsI've been getting a couple of emails and a text from Bulb saying I owe them money from 2020, which is odd because I've had two different energy providers since then. Seems dodgy to me - maybe it's a scam or someone's hacked Bulb since they do have my details. Why wait so long to chase me for money? I'm definitely going to reach out to their fraud team or even the cops about this!Bulb5 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be from Bulb, saying I owed them £350 from December 18th. Thing is, my last bill showed I had a credit, so nothing was owed at all. They also asked for my personal info, but I didn’t give anything away. Feels like a total scam, so watch yourselves!Bulb5 yearsBeware! Got a call pretending to be from Bulb Energy asking for payments - total scam!Bulb Energy5 yearsi’ve had a few emails from ‘bulb’ that had this number listed. when i sent the email on to bulb’s fraud department, the scammer actually replied back to me directly. not sure how they managed to intercept my message to bulb but watch out for this!Bulb5 yearsI've been getting messages threatening me because of unpaid bills. It's really stressing me out.5 yearsthose scamming tossers should stop messing about and find some real work instead5 yearsGot an email that looked proper from Bulb, asking me to verify my bank info by clicking a link. But when I tried ringing their 'help' numbers, they weren't anything like the real Bulb contact details. Felt pretty dodgy to me.BulbBulb Energy5 yearsI got a call from someone saying I owe money to “bulb” and told me to pay at bulb[###)/repayment. But when I tried looking for that page on bulb’s actual website, I couldn’t find anything like it. Feels a bit dodgy to me.5 yearsGot a letter the other day claiming to be from "Bulb" but it felt super dodgy. They wanted my bank details and everything, which seemed totally off for a legit company. Looks like one of those sneaky scams trying to trick people. Watch out if you get anything similar!Bulb5 yearsWatch out for Bulb Energy scams! If you get a letter with a phone number, don't ring it. Instead, get in touch with Bulb directly via their official website.Bulb EnergyBulb6 yearsReceived a call from this number, sounded so legit about some light bulb invoice scam, almost got me fooled!6 yearsgot a weird letter from bulb energy and it had a phone number they wanted me to call, felt like a total scam to me.Bulb EnergySubmit Your Own Report (0808 164 8282)
