Expert Opinion
Never answer calls that claim to be Yorkshire Water unless you verify the source. Imposters often ask you to press 1 or 2 to repeat a bogus message, hoping you’ll disclose personal details or make a payment. Let the call go to voicemail, then cross‑check any alleged outage on the official Yorkshire Water website or by calling the known customer service number. Verify the caller’s identity, block the number on your device, and report the incident to the Information Commissioner’s Office or Action Fraud. Staying cautious stops scammers from exploiting genuine water‑service concerns.

They claimed to be Yorkshire Water warning of low or no water – which matches the drop in pressure I’ve noticed. Not sure why they wanted me to press 1 to repeat or 2 otherwise, so I hung up just in case it was dodgy, mate.

Fraudster.
They pretended to be Yorkshire Water, apologising for my 'lost' water even though my tap and tank are fine. The caller asked me to press 1 to repeat or 2 to end, then the line dropped – definitely a scam, mate.
Received a notice from Yorkshire Water about a service cut‑off.
Got a call from Yorkshire Water apologising for the water cut‑off and giving an update on the works, cheers.
