Called up claiming to be from Positive Energy, asking for the listed director on companies house. I explained he isn't in the business on the daily and that explained that I could discuss the energy contracts. Called me a son-of-a-bi*ch and said I had no idea what he could do, like shut off the electricity supply lol
