Ever wondered why your phone keeps ringing with the same unfamiliar +44 33 44 39 74 4? The pattern in the reports points to a persistent telemarketing effort, most often linked to Octopus Energy trying to pitch cheaper tariffs. These calls tend to repeat several times a day and rarely leave a clear message, which is classic for aggressive sales scripts. To protect yourself, block the number on your handset and add it to the national TPS list. If the caller claims to be from your current supplier, request a callback on the official customer line and verify their identity before sharing any account details. Reporting persistent harassment to Ofcom can also help curb the nuisance.
They told me to press one to cancel an overseas card payment, but I ignored it and blocked the number, cheers.
The caller instructed me to press one to cancel an international card payment. I ignored the instruction and blocked the number instead.
An unknown number called but didn't leave a message. I'll monitor if they call again and update accordingly.
Octopus energy is calling - a sales call aimed at reducing energy expenses
I recieved two missed calls, and shortly after, they called again, claiming to be Octopus, offering a cheaper energy tarrif, however, I am stil in contract, the advicer ended the call, 03334439744
I didn't recognise the number so I let it go to voicemail. Judging by the reviews, glad I didn't answer – now it's blocked, cheers.
Living in Highcliffe, frequent calls from this number have been received, despite requests to remove the number, causing significant annoyance.
The number, unknown at the time, was not answered, and upon reviewing the comments, it has now been blocked
energy company maybe
They said they could reduce my energy bills. I told them I wasn't interested. It's annoying when they know my name. Now, I'm blocking all 0333 numbers. I have more blocked numbers than contacts. At least on my home phone, they have to identify themselves before I answer.
An unidentified number called, but I didn’t answer. After reading this thread, I decided to block it. It might be linked to the daily calls I’ve been getting with garbled messages about utility bills, which are becoming a real annoyance.
Repeated calls, up to three times daily, have led to the number being blocked
A cold caller from an energy company addressed me with inappropriate terms like 'darling' and 'lovey.' I explained GDPR and warned them of the consequences if they didn’t remove my number from their system.
This number might be spoofed; when I attempted to return the call, it indicated it wasn't recognized!! Does anyone know who it belongs to?
I attempted to answer, but the ringing ceased abruptly, which was frustrating and pointless.
Octopus energy company is calling
This number is supposely from Octopus energy
I didnt answer the call from 03334439744, they rang three times in succesion.
It is imperative that phone companies take action against these scammers, meanwhile, users must take steps to block them
A person claimed to be from Octopus energy, and asked me if I wanted to switch to a cheaper plan, but when I told him I live with my parents, he ended the call, quite abruptley
Seems suspicious.
the number 0333 443 9744 is suspicious
This number is a nuisance
Refuses to accept rejection
Extremely irritating.
Blocked this number after reading all the prevous comments about it
After a quiet period, calls have resumed—getting at least three daily.
Yet another cold caller seeking personal details, which goes against GDPR and should be deemed illegal in the UK.
Having read these reviews, I blocked this number immediately after missing a call from it
