9 monthsI didn’t pick up but I searched the number online to see who it was.9 monthsInsulation rip-off! At first, she wouldn’t admit she was trying to scam me, but when I told her loft insulation doesn’t need anything extra, she just ended the call.

Same story as before - cheers to everyone keeping this site updated, it really helps.9 monthsGot a missed call from this number the other day, and then just now someone said they were from BRS - obviously another roofing insulation scam.

She said their records showed I had spray foam insulation in my loft.
