Like others have commented, they say its Business Energy, asking me about my energy tariff, then asking if I'm paying less than 18p/kWh. I told them to write it in an email, then they rang back to check I'd got the email, then rang back a day or so later. When I respectfully said I was going to remain with my current supplier, he started to ask me why. I (a little less respectfully) pointed out that they had cold called me, I had listened to them, I had read the info they sent and decided to remain with my current supplier, and I didn't feel the need to justify my decision. They hung up on me!

Calls about 1-2 times a week, saying from Business energy on behalf of my energy supplier. She can do me good rates of 18.02p per kw and 30.30p per day standing charge, All I have to do is speak to the manager at the objection department. We have told then to go away, put the phone down on then, left them on hold for ages, but they still call. Mainly a femail with an accent called Anna James, but sometimes has been a man.

Looking for a safer home phone?

Traditional landlines were never designed to stop scam callers. New digital landline services use advanced tools such as:

  • Automatic scam number blocking

  • Call recording for safety
  • Trusted person monitoring

Phonely's digital landline was built specifically to protect vulnerable people from nuisance and scam calls. See how Phonely protects your home phone or compare the best digital landline UK.
