01202143039 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01202143039 👆 is reported as a persistent scam operation, often using numerous local Bournemouth-based numbers to promote loft insulation services. Callers typically claim to be local energy advisors or surveyors, using scripted dialogues that pressure recipients, sometimes alleging old insulation causes property damage. Many recipients experience repeated calls daily, with some reporting aggressive behaviour when challenged. Calls frequently disconnect upon answering and rarely leave messages, contributing to widespread annoyance and distress, particularly among vulnerable individuals. Despite numerous complaints, the caller repeatedly changes numbers, evading blocking efforts and regulatory enforcement. This harassment is seen as intrusive cold calling rather than genuine offers, with many advising to ignore and block these calls, and expressing frustration over the ineffectiveness of telecom providers and authorities in curbing this scam.

Got a call from someone pretending to be my energy company - turns out it wasn't them at all. Total scam, watch out!

I get these calls all the time. BT's blocking tools don’t really do much since the scammers use fake numbers that change constantly, making it easy for them to dodge any blocks. It’s pretty worrying that if BT, the police, Trading Standards, and others can’t do much about these scams, what hope do we have for important stuff like our electricity, gas, water, banks, hospitals and the like? Feels like our essential services could be at real risk if criminals can’t be stopped here.

I got called a couple times this week by a polite young bloke claiming my loft insulation was out of date according to some EPC records. He said it should be replaced with new stuff. Each time he used a different number. When I told him he was obviously a scammer, he just hung up straight away.

In the last couple of weeks, we've been getting calls from various numbers starting with 01202-143, like -165, -197, -277, -203, and -212. Twice now, a bloke claiming to be Tom rang up sounding quite pushy, telling us our loft insulation is causing damage to the house.

I’ve accidentally picked up calls from this number and others beginning with 01202143. Every time it’s been about loft insulation. When I stay silent, the call just ends, so it feels like an automated thing. I keep blocking them but they use loads of different numbers to ring from. Quite annoying really.

I keep getting calls from 01202143180 along with a few other numbers from Bournemouth - it looks like some kind of well-planned scam operation. Honestly, why hasn’t the police stepped in yet? And what’s BT’s problem letting loads of scam calls come from their landlines? It’s getting ridiculous.

Whenever I pick up a call from numbers starting with 01202 137###, 01202 143###, or 01202 159###, nobody ever says anything. It's really annoying because I keep getting loads of them. Every time a new one rings me, I just put it straight on block.

This phone number is driving me mad with constant calls. Whenever I answer, there's just silence on the other end. It's clear the company is using loads of different numbers - I've blocked around 30 so far, all coming from the same place. My number is ex directory and I’m registered with TPS, so it’s baffling how they got hold of it. I’m disabled and suffer from anxiety, so these endless calls are really upsetting and exhausting. Honestly, these relentless cold calls should be banned completely.

I've been getting loads of calls from different numbers starting with 01202 143 something this past week. Every time the machine picks up, they just hang up without leaving a message.

Just had another ring - only about ten minutes after the last one. I picked up and tried out my best doddery old person voice. The bloke on the line said his name was Simon and claimed to be my "Local Energy Advisor." He asked if I was the owner of the house, so I fibbed and said no. After that, he quickly said sorry for bothering me and hung up.

The number 01202 143 followed by different digits has buzzed me a few times this past week. Every time I pick up, it’s dead silence and no voicemail left either. Honestly, can’t wait to ditch my landline completely - my BT provider is just rubbish at blocking these annoying scam calls.

I received a phone call from someone named "John" who said he was carrying out a survey regarding loft insulation. However, I have this nagging feeling that this is really just a clever ruse to sell something.

I suspect it’s just a sneaky sales pitch; they claim it’s a survey, but really, they’re just keen on figuring out how to push their insulation deals more effectively. Honestly, this sort of thing ought to be against the law!

i keep getting calls from numbers that look almost the same. never any voicemail either. one time i answered, and this guy went on about loft insulation and how it's linked to condensation problems. then he asked if my insulation was the old kind, according to some list he had. i said i had no idea, not being the one owning the house. he just made a weird noise and hung up on me lol.

i've gotten a few calls recently, one came from 01202143040 and then twice from 01202143039. the two that ended in xx039 just went straight to my voicemail and then cut off right away. the initial call from xx040 had this weird buzzing sound like it was about to connect me to somewhere else, probably a premium rate line or something dodgy. never heard a single person speak on any of the calls. it's clearly some kinda scam.

I've been getting calls nonstop from 01202 143 with different last digits like 035, 034, or 039. I keep blocking them using BT Call Protect but the numbers keep switching. From what I've seen in other reviews, it sounds like a scam so I’m not even answering. They ring so frequently, almost all day long! Fingers crossed they don’t start calling in the middle of the night or early morning, otherwise I might have to just disconnect the landline altogether.

a few weeks back i asked about a loft insulation grant and ever since ive been getting loads of calls daily from closely matched numbers. ive started ignoring them and blocked anything that looks the same. it doesnt seem like a scam to me, just some company or their reps trying to drum up work.

Got a call from some energy advisor we never asked for, going on about our loft insulation possibly causing damp issues and if our loft was damp. I just told him to buzz off. He sounded a bit robotic too, so I doubt he took it personally.

Some bloke named 'John' keeps ringing me, like more than five times in just a couple days. Each time, the number changes slightly - I’ve seen 033, 041, 035, 040 pop up. He's pushing something about windows and doors. Last time I picked up, I told him straight away to remove my number from their list, said it again and again, and then he just hung up on me. That’s quite unsettling, especially for older folks, feels a bit like harassment to me. I’ve now blocked all those numbers using 1572 so hopefully it stops.

27th October 2021 Some bloke called himself Chris claiming to be an Energy Rep for my area and asked if I was the person in charge of the house. I asked what he wanted, but then he just cut the call off straight away. Looks like it's probably those same dodgy people who’ve been ringing me off and on about loft insulation for years, always switching phone numbers every time I block the last one. Proper scam in my opinion.

For about a week now, this number’s been ringing me up twice daily. I only picked up today because I was waiting on an important call. But when I answered, there was nothing on the other end, so I ended the call pretty quick. I had a look on 1471 and the line seemed to stay active for a bit before I got a dial tone back. I've also had similar calls about loft insulation before. Whenever I get cold calls like that, I just say the place is rented, and that usually puts them off straight away.

Just like loads of others, I've had non-stop calls trying to sell me loft insulation for ages. Whenever I block one, they just ring me from another number. Today, I got calls from two separate numbers (01202-430030 and 01202-143035). It looks like they’ve got an endless supply of numbers all beginning with 01202.
