Got a call from a woman claiming to be a local energy advisor. These types of calls have been happening pretty much every day now. I told her to stop calling and ended the call. It does make me wonder if one of my own kids might be involved in scamming folks, which is a bit heartbreaking to consider. I’m 80 and these constant calls really wear me down.

Got a call out of the blue from someone talking about energy stuff. They wanted to know if I owned the house. I said no, then they asked if I’d requested the call, and when I said no to that, they just ended the call.

I got a call from some woman claiming to be an energy advisor talking about government help for loft insulation. I told her I’d only want advice if I asked for it, not from some random call out of the blue! She seemed like she was just reading off a script and didn’t want to accept a simple no. As usual, I ended up hanging up and blocked her number straight away. What’s mad is she’s phoned me about the same thing from nearly a dozen different numbers. She must have a serious hard head, I guess!

Could be a scam, I reckon.

I do sympathise with those calling us. Imagine if it was our own children, just desperate for any job they can find? Still, I end up having to cut the call because what they're doing often isn't right, and sometimes it feels quite threatening. I guess if they make, say, 100 calls a day, and even one actually brings in a decent amount of money, they see it as a win. The fact that the other 99 just hang up on them doesn’t seem to matter to them. Who can say what their situations really are? Anyway, I keep them in my thoughts. It’s quite a sad situation all around.

Got a call from someone about loft insulation the other day, sounded like an energy company or something. As soon as I told her I was about to head out, she just put the phone down. Not really annoyed, just thought I’d drop that here for a bit of a laugh!

Got a call from someone claiming to be an energy consultant nearby, but the number wasn’t even local. I just ended it and put them on my block list like I do with all dodgy calls.

Got a call from a woman claiming to be from the local energy company, offering advice. These ring through nearly every day now. I told her I wasn’t interested and ended the call pretty quick. Sometimes I wonder if one of my own kids has gotten involved in dodgy schemes like this - it’s a bit upsetting to think about. At 80 years old, I really can’t be dealing with these constant nuisance calls.

The moment I questioned what company he was representing, the call got cut off. Guaranteed some kind of scam.

Someone called claiming to be an energy advisor from around here. She mentioned I was expecting a call from my doctor (which I was) and said sorry before going on about how it’d just be a quick chat. Then she told me to hang up the phone. Quite odd.

Didn't answer this call as no voicemail was left. This number rings a bell 'cause people I know have dealt with it before - that's why I just choose to ignore.

got a call from someone claiming to be with a local energy savings survey and they asked if i owned the house. i said "which house?" but she just kept going on about some survey. i told her to hang on but she carried on chatting like nothing. felt like a robocall or a scam so i ended up hanging up.

I’ve had these scammers calling me three times today, always from numbers different but all showing as Reading on my phone. It’s so annoying! Wish there was some way to block them for good from calling on all these different lines. 🥲

Got a call from someone saying they were my ‘local solar energy rep’ but the number showed Reading - that’s about 100 miles from where I live in Essex! Never had any dealings with them before. Seems like an unwanted sales call to me. Blocked straight away.

Got a call from a woman who sounded English, saying she was an energy advisor for my area around Reading’s dial code. Thing is, I’m up in Scotland. When I asked her to say my postcode, she couldn’t and just ended the call! Definately seems like a dodgy scam, so I’ve blocked the number now.

A guy called me saying they were doing an energy assessment and claimed to be from nearby. When I asked why the number didn’t have a local dial code, they just hung up straight away. Bit fishy if you ask me!
