Called me and began asking me to confirm my name and address after mentioning Affinity Water. There is no legitimate reason for anyone to disturb someone and ask such questions. I would very much doubt whether this call is from Affinity water but if it is they should change their practises as it is not acceptable. I would treat such calls from this number as a potential scam or fraud.

I don't think this is a scam - it's part of the Save Our Streams initiative from Affinity Water offering water saving advice and home visits or virtual visits to help identify any leaks or issues with your water supply. The phone number is published on their website https://www.affinitywater.co.uk/saveourstreams/homevisits

27/6/23 Received a call from an African lady claiming she was from Affinity water, She said Affinity Water were sending around engineers to do a carbon footprint measurement or something. Asked me to confirm my address for security purposes due to GDPR. I didn't give as I was suspicious. I called the 0808 175 0440 number from a different line and they answered as some affiliate of 'Affinity Water'. Definitely not Affinity Water. Avoid or hang up.

The lady named Mary, called me on wrong sir name, which I guess she found from my email address, but it wasn't my sir name, I heard her and before she asked me, I asked her to confirm my door number and postcode, by asking that she got frustrated, I could feel it in her change of tone, finally hung up.... They are scam.
