Last Tuesday, dozens of residents flagged calls from +443332029470 that claimed to be from British Gas, often mentioning smart‑meter upgrades or account details. The callers usually know your name and address, yet provide no verification and many remain silent or background‑noisy. Treat any unsolicited request for personal info or payment as suspicious. Hang up, then call British Gas on the number listed on your bill or their official website to confirm. Use your phone’s block feature and report the number to the communications regulator. Consider registering with a call‑screening service to reduce future spam exposure and keep a record of any suspicious interactions.
Very annoying, they have called me couple of time from this number - didnt bother to answer or call back
The call immediately went to a tone after connecting
After reading all the commments, i recieved a call that rang twice and was silent when i ansered, which is odd since i've been waiting for British gas to fix my smart meter problem and i called them eariler from my landline, not my mobile, pretty strange coincidense, i'm not botherning to ring back

Genuine communication is occuring from this number regarding Home Care Services from British Gas, independantely.
I got a text prompting me to choose a time for a smart‑meter install, followed by a missed call from 0333 202 9470. I’ve already told British Gas I don’t want a smart meter; this agent either works for them or has accessed their customer data.
The firm seems to be a fraud, luring victims with a free smart‑meter installation before demanding verification. They assumed I was a British Gas customer even though I never use their service. It feels like a long‑term data‑gathering scheme: after confirming my postcode they mistakenly quoted the code for my workplace 140 miles away, despite only having my email address. I’m puzzled why this call centre remains operational; they appear intent on harvesting personal details over time. I was especially vulnerable after recently moving and still sorting inherited utilities, and the promise of a ‘free smart meter, no charge’ made me lower my guard. Stay vigilant.
My landline rang today and the line was hung up on straight away; likely a scam, so I’ve blocked the number.
This number is associated with British Gas, confirming a missed payment for home services cover.

A lady contacted me claiming to be from British Gas, but I didnt beleive her.
Upon verifying, I confirmed that this number belonged to British Gas, who were calling me regarding my account, so I have chosen not to block it and wanted to share this information with others
Caution is advised by users
Scam suspected here
They pretended to be British Gas promoting a smart meter, despite my earlier refusal. Evidently a scam or unwanted telemarketing outreach.
