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.
A lady contacted me regarding setting up a date for British Gas to install a new smart meter, but she didnt send me a email as promissed, I beleive it was a scam.
The call turned out to be genuine British Gas; I booked an appointment when the number rang, then double‑checked with the company and they confirmed it was legit.
This number has called three times now.
Upon answering, I could hear the background noise of a busy office, but nobody spoke, prompting me to hang up and block the number immediately.

Warning sign detected
They presented themselves as British Gas, but the connection was full of hiss and static, making it almost impossible to hear. I caught a fragment about potential bill savings, but the remainder was unintelligible. Since all my personal calls are crystal clear, I suspect the call was routed from abroad, causing the poor audio.
They claim to be from British Gas, the line quality is very poor, alot of hissing and static, they said they could save me money on my bills but I couldnt hear the rest, I suspect this call is originating from outside the UK

A ring at 09:14 on Tuesday 16 May 2023 named me and launched a lengthy pitch about British Gas Homecare. When I finally interjected, I declined interest. About half an hour later, a call from 01183150367 delivered a recorded request for a feedback rating. I have lodged a separate complaint.
A person purporting to be from British Gas asked if I was satisfied with a recent boiler service, correctly naming the date. They attempted to set an appointment with a heating adviser, which I refused, and they promptly hung up.
