Call centre background, phoned landline, no real conversation. Definitely suspicious.

Caller with foreign accent claimed to be from British Gas about boiler service contract, but the boiler works fine and I know it’s not them. Definitely a scam.

Caller pretended to be British Gas offering boiler charge reductions. 100% scam, they push hard and hope you’ll believe it.

This is a Scam

Same person called me from another number 7 times yesterday from a different 0161 number to today’s 0191 number, He has rang me twice already this morning, purporting to be from my gas supplier regarding my boiler maintenance, when I refused to give him my bank details for verification, when I continually refused he said my direct debit would be cancelled and I would be fined £300 🤣 I hung up again, he’s aggressively pushy and persistent, beware he’s also very plausible to a degree but I’m a very suspicious lady when callers to me ask me for my bank details. No thank you!!! Good luck to everyone else and stay safe don’t be scammed by this person.

Answered and the man on the line made a weird noise then hung up. Definitely call centre nonsense.

Call came from what looked like a Sunderland number but was clearly spoofed by an overseas call centre. Tricked me into answering once, now blocked.

Silent call, no message left.

Indian or Pakistani girl.... either a mistake or she didn't know she connected.... loud call centre background noise.
