This is national grid. It is the same number that called me in the past when my bill was overdue. That wasn't a scam; my bill really was overdue. But I still didn't pay it by phone, I simply paid it electronically the way I pay all my bills, once I had the money to do so.
Currently, they are calling to schedule replacing my meter free of charge. This is because Mass state law requires the replacement every 7 years, even if the meter is fully functional. I converted from oil to gas seven years ago. Scam? No, not in my case.
But I'm glad so many others are suspicious in general. That is a healthy skepticism. For me, it checks out in this case.
Just received a call from this number. I picked up and said hello numerous times, nobody said anything but they didn't hang up. I'm a NY resident not MA and my area code is 718 not 781.
Received a voice mail on my googlevoice #. No specific msg, looks like an automated msg. I dont have any account with National Grid, not sure why they called me though!
National Grid calls EVERY day, sometimes more than once. When I set up an appt for them to come to change our meter (the reason for the call) they NEVER showed and I had waited at home ALL day. Now they just continue to call and call. I would like this to stop... PLEASE block this number from calling if possible. Thank you!
I live in Chicago and i get calls from them all the time about changing my gas meter. It started a few years ago when i still lived with my mother and now i rent...they have no reason to call me and i have no clue why they would have my cell number.
