Reports on phone number 60252
2 yearsThe text looked legit (like I was logging into my British Gas account, and the same appointment times were shown, so I thought it was safe to book) but then the reply said it was a premium rate number - bit frustrating that British Gas would make you use one of those instead of a free line.British Gas2 yearsGot a text supposedly from British Gas saying it was time for a boiler service and to book an appointment. I checked with British Gas on Twitter and they said it’s not the right time for a service and they’ve not tried to get in touch. They told me to ignore it, mark it as spam or a scam with my phone company, and just delete the message.British GasTwitter2 yearsGot a text saying it was from BG. Their Twitter looks like it might be legit, but after reading the stuff here, I wouldn't bother replying. Think they probably have some engineer nearby who had a last minute cancellation or spare appointments and they just wanna fill the gaps, even if your service isn't actually due yet.BG2 yearsTotal scam, stay clear!2 yearsGot a call saying my service was due. Just checked my British Gas account and tried to book the yearly service but it’s not showing as due for another 3 months. Definitely feels like a scam to me.British Gas2 yearsGot a text like this just now. Looked it up here and there’s no chance I’m hitting reply.2 yearsI got in touch with BG myself and can say for sure this was a phishing scam.BG2 yearsGot a text from 60252 saying it was British Gas saying our boiler needs servicing. Had a closer look and it's definitely a scam!British Gas2 yearsTotally a scam! British Gas would never come up on your phone as 60252!!! It always shows as BG Energy or something similar. Really dodgy, just trying to trick you into giving your info!British GasBG Energy2 yearsGot loads of messages claiming to be from British Gas about booking appointments, but they deny it's from them. I always reply straight away with different dates, thinking maybe they're checking if someone's home at those times. Feels pretty dodgy if you ask me. Why don’t the cops or anyone else track these scammers down and put a stop to it?British Gas2 yearsLooks pretty legit to me, cos when I logged into my British Gas account directly (not through the link in the message) it showed my service appointment as booked. Plus, checking back, they've messaged me from this same number before to set up yearly maintenance. Still, I got a bit iffy when my phone warned me that replying might cost me - kinda makes me think this isn't the best method BG should use to contact their customers!British Gas2 yearsTotal scam call. It’s a premium number so best not to answer.2 yearsGot a call about a British Gas service.. I looked at my contract, wont be needed till summer.. told the caller (some overseas call centre, didnt really care) then just blocked and deleted the number.British Gas3 yearsLooks like a dodgy British Gas service appointment message, especially with the web link starting with b.http and Covid mentioned in the URL. Feels a bit sus to me. Better to just check your actual BG account for any service updates.British GasCovid3 yearsGot a text from British Gas offering times for the annual boiler check, either morning or afternoon. I picked morning. On the day, a legit British Gas engineer showed up in the morning like I asked. I also got confirmation emails from them after I’d replied to the text as usual.British Gas3 yearsI’ve sent a report to British Gas so they can look into it.British Gas3 yearsGot a call claiming to be from British Gas about a boiler inspection. It was a premium number, so don’t waste your time, definitely a con.British Gas3 yearsSaid it was from BritishGas about an annual check. I checked the app and turns out my service ain't due yet. They would've hit me with a high charge if I replied to their text.British Gas3 yearsI told them ‘No’ in my reply and then got another date from them. Before replying back, I thought I’d double-check if my boiler really needed a service by going online because I’d seen some bad reviews here. I logged into my British Gas account and chatted with the bot, which confirmed my boiler’s annual service wasn’t due yet. I even found the paperwork from the last time it was done, and that was January 2023.British Gas3 yearsNot a scam at all, it was actually British Gas contacting me after they fixed my boiler. I didnt get charged for the message, so all legit and above board.British Gas3 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from British Gas, total scam.British Gas3 yearsHad a similar problem - got what seemed like a real British Gas TEXT, and the links all went to britishgas.co.uk site but the info didn’t work properly. I replied with a preferred time, then instantly got a message saying no slots were free. Tried again when they suggested a different date, same thing happened, no appointments available. Went to British Gas chat on their actual website and they told me it’s a scam number, probably costing an extortionate premium rate.British GasBritishgas. co. uk3 yearsThey said my British Gas boiler check up is coming up soon and mentioned a technician is nearby right now.3 yearsGot a message sayin it was British Gas. I’m from Banbury, up in North Oxfordshire. Came through around 4pm on the 8th of September.British GasBanburyNorth Oxfordshire3 yearsSomeone pretending to be from British Gas calling me.British Gas3 yearsTotal scam. My phone flagged it as a premium number, so I didn’t answer. Checked the BG app and my bill isn’t even close to due. Blocked the number and have reported it to EE now.BGEE3 yearsScam call pretending to be from British Gas, trying to get you to schedule a boiler check.British Gas3 yearsThey claimed to be from British Gas Boiler Service but it was actually a scam. I usually don’t fall for strange calls but somehow got tricked this time, which is super frustrating. Wish I had looked them up here before answering. Anyway, I’ve blocked the number and reported it now.British Gas3 yearsGot a text saying British Gas annual service needs doing, but I said I wasn’t ready to pick a date yet. I tried calling them back but the number just isn’t in service. Also, the reference number they gave me doesn’t seem to line up with what’s on the British Gas site. I sent a reply saying “pm” but it wasn’t accepted or understood. Quite frustrating!British Gas3 yearsGot this automated text from 60252 about booking a boiler service for BG. Bit strange since I just had mine done in March...3 yearsLegit BG here, but be careful - looks like scammers might be using this number to spoof calls. Best to double check using your online account before replying.3 yearsI got a call from 60252, said it was British Gas about some service. I replied to their texts a couple of times to lock in a date, but then I had to say I wasn’t free. Only later did I figure out it was just a scam.British Gas3 yearsI just got a text from 60252 saying they could do a boiler service in the next few days. I looked at my online account and there’s no record of anything like that booked. Seems like a dodgy message to me.3 yearsSo I got a message saying my gas boiler needed servicing, supposedly from British Gas. But I'd just had mine done about half a year ago, so I got in touch with my usual gas engineer. He told me right away it was a scam, which I kinda figured since the message didn’t have any proper contact info or anything.British Gas3 yearsThey said they were from British Gas, but I rang BG myself and they confirmed it wasn’t them. I ended up reporting the number to 7726 since it looked like a scam.British Gas3 yearsJust got a call from some spammy service.3 yearsI got a text claiming to be from British Gas, but when I rang them up, they had no clue about it. Spoke to a proper person who confirmed it wasn’t them at all.British Gas3 yearsGot a message saying it was British Gas about a boiler check-up, but it popped up on my work mobile, which I’ve never handed to any company. Also, I don’t even have a British Gas contract. Pretty sure it’s some sort of dodgy scam.British Gas3 yearsGot a text saying my boiler service from British Gas was coming up, with a suggested day and time for tomorrow. I had a look on the British Gas site and it turns out I do have a service due. So, I went ahead and booked it online. It seemed a bit dodgy at first since the link took me to some sort of British Gas COVID-19 page, but after checking around, it looks genuine after all.British Gas3 yearsGot a text saying my boiler needed a service and asked if I wanted to book an appointment. I hit yes but then got a message saying I’d be charged if I went ahead, so I didn’t confirm it. I checked my account and the service isn’t actually due for another 3 months. I rang British Gas and they reckon it’s a scam. I’ve sent them the text to have a look and now I’m just waiting for what to do next. If this really is a scam, Ofcom should step in and block it.British GasOfcom3 yearsGot called by British Gas about a boiler check, they gave me a few dates around early April 2023. I'm in the Bristol area if that helps anyone else waiting on their appointment.British GasBristol3 yearsGot a call from British Gas about arranging my yearly boiler check. Bit sooner than I was expecting, though mine was done 3 months late the last time. At first, my account showed it wasn't due yet but after a couple of hours it got updated.British Gas3 yearsGot a text from British Gas asking me to text back a premium number to arrange a service. I later double-checked on their official website and all my appointments were exactly as the messages said. Seems legit this time, no scam here.British Gas3 yearsGot a call from 60252 saying they were British Gas about a boiler check. I didn’t answer right away but ended up calling back twice cos there were “no slots” at the time I picked! After that I looked up our account online and there was no boiler service needed at all. Normally I don't fall for these dodgy calls, so I’m a bit annoyed with myself. I've sent all the info to Ofcom’s scam line now. Should’ve looked it up here before replying.BritishOfcom3 yearsI got a dodgy text claiming it was from British Gas about a boiler check. Pretty sure it was a scam.British Gas3 yearsGot a message about my boiler needing a service, but when I checked on the British Gas site, it said it's not due for ages. Seems like a bit of a scam to me.British Gas3 yearsI had a chat with Cosmo on the British Gas site, and they said the text was legit. They couldn’t tell me exactly how much it costs to reply, just that there is a fee. Doesn’t seem like a scam to me, but I’d rather just ignore the message and stick to the website instead.CosmoBritish Gas3 yearsThey said they were from British Gas and it seemed pretty legit at first, but no actual service showed up. I checked with British Gas and they said it really was them, and also told BT about it since they provide my phone line. Some folks reckon it might be trying to get you to pay for fancy texts if you reply, but so far I haven’t spotted any extra fees on my phone bill.British GasBT3 yearsGot a text from British Gas saying when they booked my boiler service, and they asked if I wanted to change to a different time or date. It was a proper, genuine message.British Gas3 yearsGot a text about my boiler needing a service, but it just smells like a scam to me. Wouldn't trust it at all.3 yearsGot a message from a premium rate number obviously trying to scam me by baiting any sort of reply. Wouldn’t engage, seemed dodgy as hell.3 yearsGot a call claiming to be from British Gas about my boiler needing servicing. I looked it up and mine isn't due for another three months.

I replied to arrange it and everything seems sorted now, the British Gas app even shows it’s confirmed.British Gas3 yearsGot a message supposedly from British Gas about a service appointment. It seemed a bit off, like one of those scam texts. They wanted me to click a link to confirm or change the date. I didn’t bother and just called British Gas directly to check, and of course, they said it wasn’t from them. Watch out for these fake texts pretending to be from well-known companies!British Gas4 yearsGot this text saying my appointment for tomorrow’s off. It asks to reply NO to some premium number if that’s wrong. Pretty sure it’s a total rip-off.4 yearsGot a call saying they were from British Gas and my boiler needs a service done. That’s not true at all, I’m not due for one for another half year!British Gas4 yearsGot a text saying it was British Gas about my yearly service.

Definitely felt dodgy, looks like a scam to me.British Gas4 yearsTotally a scam, just a waste of time!4 yearsSaid they were British Gas but my phone popped up a warning saying replying would cost extra. Definitely seems dodgy to me. British Gas always rings you and they’d never ask you to pay a premium fee just to reply to a text. Still, it sounds pretty legit at first.British Gas4 yearsI doubt it's really British Gas. They say they've got a boiler fix appointment for tomorrow but you have to pay to reply to the text. When I checked the official British Gas site, there were no appointments free. I’ve heard that texting back to that number can cost anywhere from £1 to £5 on your phone bill.British Gas4 yearsGot a message saying it was from British Gas about a boiler service needing to be booked. They gave a date and asked me to reply. I rang British Gas directly and they told me my boiler service isn’t due until October. I sent the message to phishing@centrica so they can look into it.
