01142999779 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01142999779 👆 is reported as a nuisance cold caller, often using a familiar name and personal details to feign past contact about home improvements like guttering, doors or windows from several years ago. Many find the caller aggressive, rude, and intimidating, with persistent questioning and inappropriate remarks when challenged. Some suspect it to be a scam, as the quotes push discounts but insist on face-to-face visits. However, a few comments mention genuinely satisfactory services related to windows and damp proofing from associated companies. Overall, the approach is intrusive and off-putting, so it’s advisable to avoid engagement, block the number, and not share personal information.
Reports on phone number 01142999779
5 yearsAbout four years back, I got a quote for guttering from someone called ‘Dave the joiner’. When I mentioned I wasn’t sure what it was about, he was really quite abrupt with me.Dave the Joiner5 yearsThis guy called himself Dave, said he was a joiner and that I'd supposedly asked him to give a quote for new gutters like four years ago or something. When I asked what company he was from, he mentioned something like DP Preston? He knew my first name and even my house number, which was a bit odd. Then he kept going on like "You don’t remember, do you? You must’ve slept since then," over and over. I kept telling him I had no idea about the company he kept naming, but he just wouldn’t drop it.DaveDPPreston5 yearsThe caller didn’t give their name but referred to me by my last name and first initial. Then they said, "I know you’re there mate, sounds like I can hear your breathing." I’m a woman and found it really creepy. So yeah, I just ended the call immediately!5 yearsGot a call from some dodgy cold caller who claimed to know me from when I was doing odd jobs at my flat. He somehow had my new number - no clue where he got it from. Best thing I did was just let him go on and on, keeping the chat going to waste his time.5 yearsGot a call from some bloke named Dave Smith who claimed he did some work for us about four years back. He knew our names and a few details which caught me off guard since we did get some work done around then, but how he found out I have no clue. He was pushing some huge discounts on home improvements, wanted to pop in the next day to give a quote. Seemed dodgy to me, probably a scam. No threats or anything, just a bit suspicious.Dave Smith6 yearsSo this bloke called Dave, some joiner with a rather large nose, apparently did some guttering work about four years back. He also gave me a quote for fitting doors and windows. Honestly, he was pretty rude and kept bothering me with insults. Best thing is to just block him and ignore, saves you loads of hassle.Dave6 yearsA man rang me up, saying he was a joiner named David and that I’d contacted him about a new front door about four years back. I told him I didn’t recall any of that and definitely didn’t need a door right now. Then he said something odd about me having “slept since then,” so I wouldn’t remember the conversation. He also made a few remarks that felt a bit off, though not scary. He asked if I’d already gone ahead with the door replacement, but I had to tell him I never actually spoke to him before and wasn’t in the market for a door.David6 yearsOn 21/10/20 I got a call from 01142999779 out of nowhere. The bloke tried saying we’d chatted before about guttering, which wasn’t true at all. When I told him he was wrong, he started calling me a liar. The guy got pretty rude and pushy, so I just hung up. Honestly, he came across as a bit thick and just annoyed himself more. Definitely avoid answering if that number pops up.6 yearsHad someone do damp proof coating on my walls and windows, and honestly, it was top notch. Really pleased with the work, would definitely give them a solid 10 out of 10! Highly recommend if you’re thinking about it.6 yearsThey mentioned stuff about grants for things like insulating walls and already knew my name.6 yearsReally good service from this quote comparison site. They took good care of me throughout.6 yearsHad some damp proofing done on my walls and windows, gotta say it was top notch. Proper job, would definitely rate it 10 outta 10!6 yearsBasically, this site is just a middleman that sends your info over to a well-known firm to get you some quotes.6 yearsIt was pretty strange how he knew our names, and mentioned the new door we just put in, plus the local pub - really rude too!6 yearsAbsolutely disrespectful and really quite rude.6 yearsThis bloke called me outta the blue, going on about how I'd had my gutters fixed. I told him nope, never done it. Then he started asking if I even knew what guttering was, like I was daft or something. When I said yes, he kept pushing, saying I must’ve had it done 7 years back. Proper rude attitude, it got on my nerves so I told him I wasn't stupid. Next thing, he just banged the phone down. Totally disrespectful.Submit Your Own Report (0114 299 9779)
