This number and atleast 35 different mobile numbers call me every single day claiming to be British Gas and then immediately start asking questions about my bank. No idea how they got my number or how to stop them from contacting me. My advice would be don't answer any calls from numbers you don't recognise. If it's important they will leave a message.

I had requested information from a comparison site for electricity costs and British Gas came up. I thought I'd call them direct but before I did this "they" the scammer called me and quoted interesting rates that were plausible! I never pass on information over the phone if people call me and said I would compare his quote with others.Subsequently he has tried to call at least 10 times over a period of 2 months so I have blocked him.Easy to fall for these scammers so always be aware and never give out personal information.

No idea what this call was about. Caller ID showed nothing useful and I had no clue who it could be.

reported 01482 293 795 as Harassing
Rings nearly every day, they don’t leave a message so I know it’s no one I need to speak to

Keeps calling every 2 hours for 2 days. Came here to look up the number to find I'm not the only person being harassed. Blocked.

British Gas but I ended the call quick. New my first name yet I have never been a British Gas customer

reported 01482 293 795 as Harassing
Persistently calling me 5 times over the last three days. Today I answered, as I thought it may be an important one. The person said she is from some company (that I've never heard of) and wanted to give me some advice on imaging??? I said I don't need it, but she continued talking and said that she could call back at another time. I had to repeatedly say that I don't need any imaging advice to stop her from talking. P.S.: I work in a scientific laboratory so I thought the call was from some equipment supplier company. But after reading all comments mentioning British gas... clearly it is a scammer.

Called me but didn't answer, automatically tell it was a dodgy call

Telephoned several times. Said he was British Gas. Clearly not. Ignored my informing him that I was not interested and asked for information. I ended the call.

Keep calling at least twice daily, never leave a message and I don't answer.

reported 01482 293 795 as Harassing
Keeps calling me every 5 hours. Haven't answered a call because I didn't know who it was, but I'd recommend not answering because of the existing comments saying its a person asking about banking. It might be a scam caller, so I'd watch out for it.

Called me yesterday and when I hung up they called straight back again. Then they called again later in the day and even though I didn't speak to them they kept speaking. They have phoned again today and when I asked why they were calling me the man said, ah come on there's no need to be like that - this does NOT sound like it is British Gas - I would suggest DON'T ENGAGE with them
