Caller: Origin

I'm assuming it's Origin calling as (like others posting here) I'm switching to another retailer - after years of being with Origin, they couldn't be bothered in proactively offering me a better deal when my contract ended, yet were happy to slug me with hundreds of dollars in additional billing without so much as an apology - it's only now that I have decided to switch that they come grovelling - they had their chance and blew it....

I left Origin three years ago. I hate electricity providers and I advise people to change their providers periodically. This keeps them on their toes.

Caller: Origin Energy

Fielded 2 calls approx 1-2 months apart from Origin Energy after I changed providers for a better deal. Clear tactic was trying to keep me on the phone as long as possible to change back to them. After 1st caller insulted me by implying I was an idiot was not wanting to save more money, I gave him a verbal spray and hung up. 2nd call received the same response from me today. If Origin truly cared about keeping its customers it would be proactive offering cheaper rates, instead of waiting for them to change providers. I will NEVER again use or recommend Orgin Energy to anyone and will get family members to follow suit. Origin if you really record calls for training purposes maybe you should listen to them sometime to find out not what to do.

Constant calls since changing gas & electricity provider (Origin Energy).

‭(02) 8514 2140‬ called almost the same time every morning and today I decided to pick up the call and they bloody hung up on me!! That’s it!! Blocked the number for good!!

Called and left no message have blocked this number now thanks to other commenters, cheers👍

No idea who (02) 8514 2140 is, NO message left, whether its a scam or Origin Energy, no idea......I don't answer unknown numbers, they have to leave a message then I'll call them back if warranted.

Going by the comments here, it must be Origin as I've recently switched from them.

called me daily - no message received. Today I answered - to tell them to go away - and they hung up.

I've switched from Origin to AGL. So could be Origin. They're persistent.

Called and no one talked. Once I said hello it hung up.

Blocked this number on advice from other respondents. Thanks

Could be origin as i recently switched. Did not answer but checked my message bank and it was a long beep.....

Caller: Origin Energy

Woman asked for Robert. Said he switched gas to another company. Told her no Robert.
Asked her where she was calling from - Melbourne!!?? Phoned Origin and informed them.
As a customer of Origin I was informed there was no record of these calls (5).Origin did not
know this number.

Missed call. BLOCKED.

I didn't recognise the number so I didn't answer the call. No message was left on my phone. I have not complaint to add just a note to say I have had this number call me also.

Caller: Origin Energy

I switched to another company and since then (February) I am called 1-4 times a day by Origin. I recently asked them to stop, and also accused them of holding up the transfer to the new company. They claimed they would never do that, but conveniently I was transferred to the new company the following day. Dodgy as hell.

Caller: Said they were origin

asked for me by name to identify I refused to give my name so they abused me and hung up.

I'm getting daily calls from (02) 8514 2140 . The first time I answered by picking up the phone but not saying Hello, the line was silent on the caller side for about 10sec then it disconnected. So I thought it is a computer call, (of you say Hello then the computer hands the call to a person), after that I read 2140 do not bother to answer, but it is annoying that my phone keeps on reminding me I missed a call until I open it to silent it.

I read Origin above, and could have been them, in my case, as I was with them and just moved to a different energy company. So: could be legit.
