Expert Opinion
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.
