We've been plagued by frequent calls from this bloke named "Chris" over the last few weeks, all from various numbers. I'm beginning to think it's some dodgy loft insulation scam. Truly infuriating!

Just had yet another phone call from an energy advisor regarding 143181, which I got yesterday. I informed him that he wasn't my local energy adviser, as he's based in Essex. I urged them to cease these persistent calls... hopefully, this time it'll do the trick.

I've gotten about eight calls from people about insulation and energy stuff, including numbers like 01202 143584. The callers were named Chris and Patrick. Does anyone know how I can file a complaint about this?

Keep getting calls from these so-called energy saver scams. They’re pushing fake insulation deals. Honestly, the cops should crash their operation and lock em up properly. It’s about time someone put an end to this rubbish!

The person on the phone seemed quite convincing at first. They claimed my attic required insulation, but since I had it done just a couple of years back, I didn’t continue the conversation. Ended the call pretty quickly.

It appears that the names Chris, Tom, Craig, and Simon are all aliases for the individual known as Stuart David Wright. This particular phone number is linked to the address 21a Plymouth Road, Barnt Green, Birmingham, B45 8JF, registered under Stuart Wright. So, it seems we've uncovered the residence of this con artist! It’s rather unsurprising that he resides in such a spacious home, given all the people he’s been duping!

I had a similar experience just recently. Is this the property owner I’m speaking to? They started prattling on about loft insulation. I decided to cut the chat short and ended the call. I was under the impression that cold calling had been outlawed, or have I missed something?

It was a quick call, only about 25 seconds. Heard the same English accent I've gotten before from cold callers, but this time the guy says his name is "Alex" instead of "Chris". Right off the bat he asks if I’m the homeowner? Like, how would he know that? Just ’cause I picked up the phone! I told him he’s rung me loads of times already and then he just ended the call on me! Sounds like he’s trying to sell some loft insulation or something.

Random bloke called from this number claiming to be some “energy advisor” round my neighbourhood. Problem is, I’m on the Telephone Preference Service and also ex-directory, so he really had no business ringing me up. Feels like a total scam to me.

So this guy Chris, who’s supposed to be an energy adviser near me, called but from a Bournemouth phone number, even though I’m down in the south west. I’d already put one of his numbers on block but he managed to buzz me from another one. Proper annoying!

I chose not to pick up the phone since the number was unfamiliar to me. I thought to myself that if it was something significant, the person calling would have surely left a voicemail. However, that didn't occur. I have a hunch this might just be another scam call.

Just received a dodgy call claiming, "Is this the homeowner? Your loft insulation could be causing harm to your property. We're providing a complimentary survey." I kept pressing for details about which property he meant, but all I got was a curt, "Thanks for your time," before he hung up. I've now blocked the number.

I received a voicemail that seems to have been recorded by accident. It sounds like the chap had no clue he was still on the line. He was having a conversation with someone else, making comments about how it wouldn't make a difference if a customer lodged a complaint, as he felt nobody would pay any attention to it. Quite bizarre, really!

I’ve managed to trace this number back to 21a Plymouth Road in Barnt Green, Birmingham, postcode B45 8JF, belonging to a chap named Stuart Wright. It’s quite illuminating to discover the residence of this fraudster! And it’s hardly surprising to see he’s residing in such a plush pad-seems his scamming ways are funding quite a lovely lifestyle!
