Expert Opinion
Like an unwanted doorbell that won’t quit, the calls from +64800552663 keep showing up in many inboxes, often promoting a switch to a new electricity provider such as Blackbox Power or Pulse Energy. These are typical telemarketing attempts, sometimes persistent and polite, but they can become intrusive. If you’re not interested, ask the caller to remove your number from their list and confirm the request in writing if possible. Consider adding the number to your phone’s block list, or use your carrier’s call‑blocking service. Keep an eye on any suspicious voicemails, and never share personal or payment details unless you’ve independently verified the company’s legitimacy.

Even after emailing the power company to say I'm not signing up, they still ring me twice a day, lol.

Clearly a nuisance call.
The call tries to persuade me to change my electricity provider.
My wife enrolled in BlackBox to receive free product samples, but they later used our number for other marketing; when I called back, I reached Pulse Energy, which seemed to be passing the call to Power. I left a friendly voicemail, but we’re not interested.
I missed a call from 0800552663, didn’t check voicemail, then called back. Pulse Energy answered and I asked them to remove me from their list since I’m not switching power firms. They were courteous. thanks.
A telemarketing pitch from Black Box Power tried to enroll me, though they're not the cheapest option—better to compare rates.
Been receiving follow‑ups for three to four months urging a switch of electricity providers. Not fraudulent, just very persistent—likely commission‑based.
I submitted a callback request on Pulse Energy's site, and this number was used for the return call.
I didn't answer, but they left a note promising a callback later—pretty friendly, you know.

The Lightbox Power line, apparently tied to Spark/Telecom, delivered a friendly message.
Seems fine. Not a debt collector, just trying to convince me to join a different electricity provider. They left a friendly voicemail and weren’t aggressive.

I didn't answer a call, then returned it. The voicemail claimed I called outside business hours (8 am‑8 pm, Mon‑Fri) despite dialing at 10:45 am on a Tuesday.
Since I've been scammed multiple times, I just ignore their repeated calls and skip voicemail, FYI.
Everything's fine, all good, cheers
