Landlord reported British Gas with the number 01132989000 as Debt collection company
I am a landlord who owns a property in scotland, the gas and ele are supplied by scottish gas, when a tenant leaves the account it is changed back to myself, as the property is empty i never bother to pay the gas or elec as it does not amount to much by the time i get a new tenant in, if this time period is beyond a couple of months i start getting calls from the above number (Leeds) and from 0141 298 9000 (Glasgow Number)it is British Gas and I don't give any information over the phone to verify who i am, instead I call back later using the number supplied on the bill and clear my outstanding charges and/or debt then the calls stop. This is not the first time it has happened and now I take this as a normal course.
If you owe BG money they are going to phone you and yes you will get the silent calls, agressive sales people and dubious security questions, just tell them you cannot help and call BG on the correct number. Remember never give your information over the phone to anybody ever. -

Charlie reported unknown with the number +441132989000 as Harassment calls
This is not a British Gas number. I do not owe them any money. Still receive calls from this number wanting me to take electricity with British Gas. This time when I said I was not interested, the caller told me to ..... off!

Pariah reported FAKE British Gas with the number 01132989000 as Harassment calls
Had a call from this number, and a couple from a similar number. Claim to be British Gas, saying there's been a change in the way I top up and they want to check that the supply is ok etc. I called BG from a number on the BG website, they checked and told me that these numbers are NOT BRITISH GAS. Recommended I add them to my block list, I suggest you do the same.

Annoyed reported Fake British Gas with the number +441132989000 as Harassment calls
Had numerous calls from this and a similar number (01132989890) claiming to be from British Gas - chasing payment for someone else's outstanding Invoices. We've told them several times that they have the wrong number, but they keep calling.
I have been in contact with British Gas (both Home and Business)customer services and they confirmed this is NOT a British Gas number.merlin replied 9/28/16, 12:51 PMIt is a psuedo number british gas debt department use purely so it does not show up as unknown number -

Amanda reported number 01132989000 as Apparently british gas
Asked for my postcode in broken english then told me I was over 1/4 worth of debt and that I need to clear this immediately over the phone. I am not in debt therefore this is a lie and scam as he offered to set up a direct debit for me straight away! Add to reject list in your phone!!

haj reported BG with the number +441132989000 as Survey

He said that they want to install new meters that don't need a visit to read!! he asked me for my post code...which i didnt give an hung up. If it is BG i will await a letter through the post, not a phone call form someone who cannot speak english.

carer reported british gas with the number +441132989000 as Harassment calls
i care for a disabled person who cannot speak.....at first it was an 0141 number calling him twice a day, every day....i googled the number and it said it was british gas...when they called yesterday, i answered it. It was a foreigner saying he was british gas, and because client can't speak, i was to give the second part of post code for security....i refused saying i was thinking of clients security not to give it.....he then gave me an 0800 number to call and demanded i give his colleague a call before 8pm...i checked british gas website and the number he gave me wasn't on it....so i called british gas, who told me there was no record of any phone calls being made to the client....now today,this 01132989000 has called twice and i've not answered them....my disabled client has had 1 fall so far answering 1 of these calls, i explained this to BG, so if he has a bad fall, and hurts himself, will BG eventually get these scammers stopped if they have a law suit on their hands for compensation
Louis replied 3/4/15, 2:16 PMDon't just mention legal action; do something about it. Escalate the matter as far as necessary.
There is the official BG complaints process and you have legal rights because of harassment. It is now becoming easier to prosecute companies for unsolicited nuisance calls.
The fact that your client is disabled and has had an injury puts you in a stronger position. Push for compensation and don't take a pitiful offer.
Good luck and I hope that you win. I am disabled too and I am about to follow my on advice. -

rob reported number 01132989000 as unknown
Definately not BG. Just another group of losers who are paid to try and extract money from you under false pretences. Like many others now using automated messages asking you to hang up or press a key, well my guess is if you press the key, here come more calls from them and others. Caller display is an advantage, you get to see who it is before you pick up. For now they and those like them are just a pain in the butt, if we ever get a goverment with teeth they may do something about it. Wont hold my breath the last 10 years of complaining has got us nowhere.
Louis replied 3/4/15, 2:19 PMI never press a key in response to an automated call; I fear that this will result in me being charged a fortune on my phone bill. -
Your Probably Already Have It reported unknown with the number 01132989000 as Harassment calls
Just had the call from this number claiming that i need to pay otherwise i will have a pay late charge. Knew a lot and asked me to confirm end of post code. Sounded like he was from pakistan and in a call centre. Then something clicked and I thought I'll pay it online told him I'd do that and he was trying to keep me on the phone to give my details. Told him I dont trust him and he said well you'll see when you have a late payment. Rang it back and it was a dead line. Doesnt seem right to me.
Scan beware -
marcia reported the female said she was from British Gas but didn' with the number +441132989000 as Harassment calls
I think they are just phoning random number and hoping they get BG customers, obviously a scam. The woman spoke in broken English and couldn't say my full name, just part. BG do not work like this no matter what some people may think.

ranger99 reported unknown with the number 01132989000 as Harassment calls
Been ringing everyday at the same time, my guess is that's it BG since I am late on a bill, my advice to others is that you never confirm any details about yourself to anyone who calls you, even is they claim to know everything any whey.
STW replied 8/20/14, 8:23 PMBritish Gas's number who called you: A call back, energy or Utility related enquiry -
Perturbed reported Supposedly British Gas with the number 01132989000 as Harassment calls
I am confused by this.
I recently received a call from this number about an annual service booking; the woman at the other end knew my name but wanted me to confirm my address and postcode, which I did.
I agreed to a suggested date and time, and she tells me that I will be getting a call on the day to confirm.
I then receive a text to confirm the appointment, and directions to the BG website to cancel or amend.
Logging onto the website, I can see that there is indeed an appointment booked in my name.
However:
* Googling this number, I can only find references to it being an obvious scam.
* The British Gas "look up a number" facility cannot find it
* I rang their customer services to ask about this number and was told it was not a British Gas number.
So, I have now cancelled the appointment and changed my password on the British Gas website.
Not sure if there is anything else I should do. -
Craig reported number +441132989000 as unknown
Got a missed call from this number this morning. I called back but it said that it's an incorrect number. I do owe British Gas money, but they called me last week on a different number. I would not trust this number, and never give them any of my details or confirm any details with them.

Investigator Soosie reported number 01132989000 as British Gas (supposedly)
Been receiving calls from this number every day, sometimes twice or 3 times, for the past couple of weeks. I always let the ansafone get it and the same thing happens every time ....... a recorded message starts by saying "you were called today by British Gas to discuss installing ......." then the message cuts off.
As I am a British Gas customer, I thought I'd best check if it is them calling so I checked on http://www.britishgas.co.uk/help-and-advice/contactus-personal-details/did-we-call-you.html which is the British Gas website whereby you can put a phone number in to see if they did actually call you and it says 'number not recognised' ..... in other words "NO, it is NOT British Gas calling!".
Obviously yet another scam, so next time they ring I WILL be answering, just so I can tell them what to do with themselves!!!! -
andy reported unknown with the number 01132989000 as Telemarketer
British Gas.
calling me for months. First from Manchester. Got apology. then it starts again. DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM BRITISH GAS. If this is how they market, what must their service be like????!!!!. I don't have an account, never had one DON'T want one.
Maybe I could be murdered for writing this. British gas stinks. -
phil reported unknown with the number 01132989000 as Cost trap
received a call from this number yesterday, claiming to be British Gas about our community centres unpaid gas bill of over £400.
Even in the last really bad winter with minus 15 degrees, our gas bill wasnt that high, so alarm bell started ringing immediately. He asked about payment, and as soon as i said cheque, he said he could setup a direct debit to save us time etc, but we wont do that, exactly for this reason. He said he would send me an email copy of the unpaid bill - which BG have NEVER EVER done - and guess what, nothings arrived.
I checked and guess what its a SCAM!!!
The guy had an indian accent, but it was a Leeds(01132)number, but the most telling thing is, if you ring the number, its disconnected. -
Investigator rupert reported unknown with the number +441132989000 as Cost trap

hmmmm reported number +441132989000 as supposedly British Gas?
Went on to British gas website http://www.britishgas.co.uk/help-and-advice/contactus-personal-details/did-we-call-you.html They don't know this number. The guy had a really aggressive tone and repeatedly pushed for my card details. Also his "security" check was to ask me to say the end of my post code. All in all it felt really unprofessional and a lot like a fraudulent call, and if this IS British Gas then this is some pretty shameful behaviour!
