this number 800-743-500 is a legitimated PG&E number  !! however  !! scammers are now using it to commit scams ...the way it works these  low life scammers will use the 800-743-500 and use it on their caller id ..and when they call you folks will think that is PG&E  they will tell you that your bill is past due and that you need to pay $500.00 or they will cut off your power this is obviously the scammers ....the U.S.A government needs to do  something about these problem ...since now anyone can put any phone number on their caller id ..and commit fraud !!

this is interesting reading.  the CID was "toll free caller".  No message.
But I do have a PGE appt for a pilot light tomorrow?  Was it a real call?  Or just a lucky spammer.

I received a call from this number at 12.27. The caller ID said Pacific Gas % Electric Co.When I answered a woman started speaking Spanish, I kept saying Hello Hello and she finally cut me off. Just another scam trying
to target Hispanic people. Be aware.

Got a call from this # 800-743-5000 to my office. He introduced as Travis Johnson from PG&E, he was asking for manager or owner who handle the bill, he has our correct address. At first I thought he was talking about power pole repair within business premises, I asked him to leave message for manager, he said "as I said my name is James Turner, from PG&E, phone number 888-503-4441" need to take care of the issue "about late payment to prevent power shut off today since a technician is on the way". I like urmmmmm NO WAY. Do you forget your name? then I said I was busy and hung up. Waste my time. Obviously it is a spoof #.

I received this call following a PG&E workman responded (promptly) to my call about smelling gas fumes in my home.  He came and investigated/corrected the problem.  The call wanted response to a short survey about the visit.   I also believe this is the number that is shown when I get requested updates on power outages in my area.

I don't know if you noticed or not, but people have ALREADY stated this number belongs to PG&E for 10 years now..........AND if you searched this number in a web search it SHOWS as "Frequently asked questions about new 1-800-743-5000 hours - PG&E" in the TOP of the search results. So anyone wanting to figure out who their caller might be would have that knowledge long before reading your post.

So I have to wonder why you think posting a vague legitimate report of your call will somehow reassure everyone .... ...something??? Its not a review site...so thats not it....., its not a competition of what type of callers call the most....so thats not it........ and its surely not going to make a difference in HOW legitimate YOUR call was to reassure people they won't get a scammer asking them to pay or get service shut off.....¯\_(ツ)_/¯

A legitimate number does not validate the caller is legitimate.
A legitimate call for someone, does not validate a caller will be legitimate for everyone else.
Never trust a caller to be who they claim, always call from an official number to verify if they did.

Google phone number spoofing.

Calling me at 9:57pm pst, no message left

It was PG&E. I don't answer 800 calls but they left a longish voicemail letting me know about upcoming needs to check meters, etc. and reminding that all workers have ID. Seems totally legit. Asked me for nothing and gave a number to call if I wanted more info.

Have received 3 calls the past 2 days from this number and many more over the past few years, if they are truly PG&E why don't they ever leave a message.

Still calling, no message

I just received a call from this number stating they are from PG&E and that are going to cut my electric service.  They want me to drive to the PG&E head office to settle.

did not leave a message. Must have been unimportant since they didn't leave a message

No message

Scammers pretending to be PG&E. I told the sucker to yea go a head cut my line.😁

Asked fo the home owner.

Caller id = Toll Free Call.  No message left, but I blocked this number eons ago.  This is a fake spoof (especially if it is a PG&E number) because I got another Toll Free Call today where people reported that that number as being from Microsoft (855-540-9444).  Is it coincidental that I would get two Toll Free Calls in one day?  NOPE!!!  Related called from the same scam dude.

I've been receiving calls from this number for a few days now.  I have most 8xx numbers blocked.  Could be PG&E since they sometimes call to let me know they will have some tree-trimmers that may need to access my property.  They'll show up whether I answer the phone or not and I always let them access what they need and, usually, go watch them work.
