5 yearsLately, I’ve been getting calls about insulation from a bunch of 01202 numbers, and I’m pretty sure it’s a scam.5 yearsThis is Chris, your neighbourhood energy consultant.Chris5 yearsSo, they claimed to be from "our local energy company," right? Sure they did. They were asking about some loft insulation grant. This caller rings all the time and honestly, they just don’t get it when you tell them to buzz off in plain old English.5 yearsI usually dont answer calls from numbers i don't recognise, but numbers looking almost the same have called me before, and every time they turned out to be scams. So i wouldnt trust this one either.5 yearsJust like loads of others have said, this bloke was clearly one of those dodgy green energy scammers. He went on about how he knew what insulation was in my attic and even guessed my age, which freaked me out because all he had was my home phone number. When I asked him why he was so sure about all that stuff, he quickly ended the call. Proper suspicious!5 yearsSo irritating! I’m on the TPS and my number is ex-directory, yet these calls keep coming. What did I do? Just reported them straight to the ICO - they’re a proper government body. Takes just a minute and honestly, it feels good to fight back!TPSICO5 yearssomebody rang saying they were an energy advisor for my area, said my house had bad loft insulation according to their records. i asked them to clarify the address they meant, and right after that the line got all crackly and then went dead. i’m convinced it’s a scam. got a call before from almost the same number too. definitely not from any official government service!5 yearsa guy with an english accent rang up saying he was from some government energy savings thing, wanted to chat about insulation and ways to save energy. i really couldnt tell if it was legit or if there was some dodgy reason behind it, so i just said no cheers like i do with all these cold calls and hung up.5 yearsGot a call saying my house is listed on some kind of register and that I need a loft insulation check. They said it’s free since I’m a pensioner. Definitely a scam!5 yearsGot a call off some Green Eco Centre people, sounded like they were just reading off some script and wouldn’t stray from it. I asked them where they found my number and they kept saying it was from some government green energy list. When I mentioned I’m on the TPS and shouldn't be called, they just repeated that line about the green energy list again and then just hung up on me.Green Eco CentreTPS5 yearsIn just one day, I got three calls from numbers that were all pretty similar. And yeah, it was another one of those green energy consultants ringing me up!5 yearsGot a call minutes ago from someone asking about loft insulation in my home.5 yearsThis guy called acting like he was from some official gov department, trying to pressure me into booking a loft insulation survey. Wouldn't actually say who he was representing. Felt like he just wanted to push us into buying some other type of loft insulation. As soon as I started asking proper questions and seemed a bit wary, he just ended the call flat out. Pretty sketchy if you ask me.5 yearsA bloke named Chris rang me out the blue, claiming he was some green energy advisor for the neighbourhood. He started going on about loft insulation and how it could save us a load. Even when I told him I wasn’t the homeowner and they were out, he just kept chatting. He went on saying loads of local homes had already made the switch and that it would cut bills. I told him again I knew nothing about it and then ended the call.Chris5 yearsJust got a call from some guy about my loft not being insulated right. Told him I actually live in a flat on the ground floor, so no loft here. He hung up pretty quick after that. Aren't these kinds of calls meant to be banned? Feels like they might be breaking data protection rules or something.5 yearsSome guy called saying he was an energy advisor from around here. I’m in the energy and telecom business myself, so I asked him how he found my number. Suddenly the line just cut out but didn’t actually hang up. When I tried calling back using 1471, a recorded message said it was a "Digital Marketing Services" customer survey or something like that. Proper dodgy if you ask me.Digital Marketing Services5 yearsGot a call today at 12:29 pm. I always check caller ID and never pick up unknown numbers, plus I’m signed up with the TPS - guess that doesn’t really help, huh? They didn’t even bother leaving a voicemail.5 yearsAll I got was a bunch of strange sounds, like some sort of trance or something.5 yearsGuy said he was calling for a government green scheme about loft insulation or something like that. He just kept repeating the same lines, didn’t actually answer any of the questions I asked. Kept pushing me to let him come round and give me a “free report” about damp in loft insulation, which I wasn’t even sure about. Ended up hanging up as it felt totally one-sided and pointless.5 yearsThere’s this bloke, Chris I think, who normally calls me around 3 or 4 times a month trying to sell loft insulation. Today, the same number showed up again and it was definitely his voice, but this time he said his name was John and was pushing a totally different product. Weird how that works.ChrisJohn5 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be with a government heating advice team, asking if I owned the house and wanting to discuss heating choices. When I mentioned that my number was ex-directory and on the TPS list, and asked why they hadn’t done the necessary legal checks before calling, they just ended the call! Shocker, right? Seems like they’re not bothered about following the rules but want to grab all the business by bending them. Beware of 01202137451!Telephone Preference Service5 yearsI keep getting calls from this guy Chris on my landline all the time. I was thinking about wasting his time and keeping him on for like 10-15 minutes, but at that moment I was already tied up with two other scam attempts. One was a text about a Hermes parcel, and the other was an email claiming to be from Emirates National Bank of Dubai, offering me a share of $30 million. The Hermes one nearly fooled me, so watch out for that one!ChrisHermesEmirates National BankDubai5 yearsThey were going on about some dodgy loft insulation thing, saying my loft was a hazard or whatever. I told them it was nonsense, but they just didn’t bother arguing back. Seems like another load of scams to me.Submit Your Own Report (01202 137451)
