There has been an increase in reported instances where fraudsters have 'spoofed' our website which includes listing an illegitimate phone number for our call centre in attempt to gain customers' personal information. A reminder that we don't collect credit card or bank account information over the phone and we don't accept payment by cash gift cards or Bitcoin. If you're unsure of the legitimacy of a website or communication that appears to be from BC Hydro, please call us at 1 800 BC HYDRO (1 800 224 9376).
