Phone number ☎️ 01162982501 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance primarily linked to unsolicited energy-related sales calls. Callers often use automated messages or abruptly hang up when answered, with no clear company identification or follow-up messages. Recipients frequently express frustration at the inability to stop these calls despite registering with official do-not-call lists and using call-blocking services. The numbers tend to target both mobiles and landlines unsolicitedly, sometimes citing home energy improvements or savings as a pretext.

2 yearsGot a spam call, but as soon as I picked up, there was just silence on the other end.2 yearsI'm sick to death of these constant calls. Surely BT can do something to block them! Honestly, I'm thinking it's about time I ditched my landline altogether.BT2 yearsTotal energy scam, just block it. Don’t waste your time with those calls.2 yearsGot a call from some dodgy phone with a robot voice, but the guy kept saying he's not a robot and was clearly reading from a script. Pretty sure it's some energy company scam, just hung up straight away.2 yearsOn the 5th April 2024, I got a call from 01162982501 saying I could cut my bills by 20% if I got new loft insulation installed. They said someone would call back to arrange a time for the fitting. I just said “No thanks” politely and hung up. Haven't had any follow-up calls since then.2 yearsAlways the same thing - the call just ends as soon as it hits the answerphone. I'm honestly thinking about switching off my BT landline because these calls come non-stop every day and nobody seems to do anything about it. The TPS doesn’t seem to make a difference at all.The Telephone Preference Service2 yearsI'm registered with TRS, so I really wasn’t expecting to get calls from businesses like this.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsThey just started laughing and didn’t say a word.2 yearsHonestly, this needs to be stopped ASAP.2 yearsNo chance on showing up on my mates or family’s caller ID - straight to BLOCKED.2 yearsMy BT callminder stopped the call from coming through, and since there was no message left, I’m guessing it was probably something dodgy.BT2 yearsDidn’t pick up because number was unknown. Honestly, these call centres need to be closed down for good.2 yearsThis number called me early at about 8:10am, but they’re not someone I have on my friends or family contact list. I’ve never come across this STD code before and since they left no message on my voicemail, I just blocked the number. Reading the other comments, I’m starting to think this might be a dodgy or risky call.2 yearsSo annoyed! Got a call at 8:02 this morning, ignored it and now I've blocked the number. Seriously, where on earth are these firms finding my phone number from? And why is there no way to put a stop to it??2 yearsAt first I figured it was just some scam call. When I picked up, all I got was an automated "Goodbye" and nothing else, really quiet too.2 yearsGot a few calls all robotic, each one finishing with some kinda automated “goodbye” before it just cuts off.2 yearsGot a call at 8:31 in the morning, wasn't the first either. Dunno who's calling, so I just didn't answer.2 yearsThey rang earlier too but didn’t leave any message this time!2 yearsThey won't stop ringin!!! But... I ain't answerin or textin back, no way!2 yearsThey gave me a call way before 8 in the morning.2 yearsI got a call at half eight on the 5th of April from a man asking about the safety of our loft. I couldn’t work out how he got hold of our landline number. He mentioned something about energy efficiency reports saying our loft required an inspection. The guy was polite and didn’t push, letting me hang up when I wanted to, but it was an unexpected call and they never said which company they were with. Just another annoying cold call really.2 yearsReceived a call I didn’t want, definitely against the TPS rules.2 yearsI picked up the phone but there was no one on the other end, then the call just dropped.2 yearsGot a call from someone trying to sell energy plans, and it was totally a spammy recorded message.2 yearsWhen I pick up, it’s just some robotic voice saying goodbye right away. Strange!2 yearsGot a call, answered a bit late and they just cut me off - totally felt like a scam!2 yearsGot a call from some automated voice saying they were Luke, an energy advisor from Leicester. I just ended the call straight away.LukeLeicester2 yearsThis has been going on way too often lately.2 yearsI usually just let it ring until it goes to the answerphone and then say "Bye". It’s happened to me quite a few times.2 yearsThat caller was definitely just spam, better to avoid chatting with them.2 yearsI didn’t pick up when they called and there was no voicemail or any sound from the caller.2 yearsIt only took a few seconds before an automated voice said "goodbye" and hung up.2 yearsI just stayed silent on the line and waited, but after a short while the person on the other end ended the call.Submit Your Own Report (0116 298 2501)
