Someone rang asking for a person with the same name as my late husband. When I said no and mentioned I wasn’t Ms xxxxxxxxx, they just hung up straight away. Later, I checked the number on ‘Who called me’ and saw loads of bad reviews about it.

Didn’t know the number, so I ignored the call. No voicemail was left, so I’m guessing it was just some scammers. I’ve blocked the number and reported it here as well as to Action Fraud.

Got a call from 0118-230-4521, some woman going on and on about Energy Performance - she didn’t pause for a sec LOL. Clearly just reading off a script. I cut her off and told her to never call me again. Then she just hung up like that LOL.

I never pick up calls from numbers or regions I'm unfamiliar with. I simply cut the call and block them right away. It's astonishing how these parasites manage to obtain Ex-directory and TPS-registered numbers. Reporting to Action Fraud, the ICO, or using 7726 has proven utterly futile! Take the ongoing barrage of phishing emails, for instance - you report them to Microsoft, and yet they seem to take no meaningful action. Surely there ought to be a more vigorous approach to thwarting these nuisances right at their source? It's baffling how they can evade detection when pinpointing these crooks shouldn't be that complicated. Stronger penalties are essential and would make a significant impact, if not entirely eradicate this issue. Plenty of folks are expressing their frustration about these calls!

It was about loft insulation - apparently can lead to lung problems and all that. They said it should be checked and it won’t cost you anything. When I asked if a qualified builder wouldn’t already know this, there was a long silence and then she just said “NO” and asked if she could set up an inspection. I tried to say no thanks, but she got a bit pushy and when I kept saying “please listen,” she just ended the call. Proper unpleasant folks.

Yeah, got loft insulation through energyhub. Tried asking her place of work three times and she just cut the call. By the way, they definitely dont do weekends!

She refused to say which company she was from and couldn't give me any details about who they were meant to contact, blaming "GDPR" for that.

Got a call on my landline from 01182304521. A woman said she was from some energy centre and mentioned something about fiberglass in my loft insulation. When I asked how I could verify she was legit, she said I'd get a follow-up call from a surveyor. Didn’t feel right, so I just ended the call.

SCAM alert! Watch out! From a trusted UK source: "01182304521 starts with 0118, which is a real area code. The number is the right length for 0118, but the digits after the code don’t match up." So why would a RESPECTABLE UK company use a dodgy number? They’re probably fishing for your info or trying to rob your money. Better to steer clear.

Got a call from a woman on 01182304521 about some loft insulation and she wanted to arrange a free check-up. I asked which company she was from so I could verify them on Companies House. She replied she worked for several firms and kept talking over me. I had to raise my voice and said ‘excuse me, I’m asking a question, please don’t talk over me, it’s rude.’ She hung up straight away - clearly didn’t like being challenged. I’m pretty sure this is dodgy, no proper company rep would behave like that when you’re just asking basic info.

I chose not to pick up since it seemed dodgy to me. I ended up blocking the number and putting it on my blacklist. Got a few calls today from unknown numbers, so I've just blocked them all. A lot of the time the phone barely rang, which to me means it’s probably some automated system. I figure if it's really urgent, they’ll leave a voicemail anyway.

Really determined woman calling about a loft insulation survey. She was ready with answers for every question I threw at her and kept trying to set up a visit from a certified inspector.
