2 yearsI was requested to take a look at the insulation in the loft of my home.2 yearsPicked up the phone, and the bloke on the other end claimed to be an expert in home insulation. To me, he gave off some serious dodgy vibes-definitely felt like a scammer!2 yearsSomebody called me claiming to be from a group named ‘Insulate Your Home’ - not sure that’s a real outfit. They were going on about how your loft insulation might be outdated, even if it’s already there. Said they do free checks but only for folks aged between 50 and 70, so clearly aiming for older people. When I told them I wasn’t interested and wanted to stop the call, they got a bit rude, so I just ended the call.Insulate Your Home2 yearsAbsolute scammers! They keep changing numbers every time I block them. BT really should stop handing out these numbers to dodgy callers, and if they know these are dodgy, they should just take them off the list altogether.
