Text From British Gas

Hey

Just had a text from British Gas, confirming the arrangement for an engineer to come round later this week and i should ring an 0800 number if it's no longer convenient. No such arrangement was made.

Being on this site has made me suspicious and cynical about such things :), but i guess as it's an 0800 number it should be fine :)

Any thoughts?

    Sometimes BG comms get a bit out of sync, have you had an email or telephone call regarding this.
    Just give them a call.
    That gum you like is coming back in style.

    Someone probably gave them a wrong mobile number.

    If you didn't arrange for a BG engineer to call, they probably won't be calling at your door.
