01202143186 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01202143186 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance scam primarily involving unsolicited calls claiming to offer loft insulation or energy-saving services. Callers often use various names like Chris, Tom, or Simon, falsely presenting themselves as local energy advisers despite geographic inconsistencies. They frequently alter the last few digits of the phone number to bypass call blocking. Many recipients report silent calls, abrupt hang-ups when challenged, and disregard for the Telephone Preference Service (TPS). The calls are often automated or scripted, causing frustration and distress, especially among elderly individuals. Blocking and reporting are advised, but the problem remains widespread. Users should avoid answering unknown numbers with the same dialling code and be vigilant to protect against potential scams linked to this number.

Don't fall for calls from numbers linked to Stuart Wright, born 19/01/1965. This bloke, using names like Chris, Tom, Craig, Simon, or Patrick, is tied to the address 21a Plymouth Road, Barnt Green, Birmingham, B45 8JF. It’s clear he’s the one behind these scams. The guy lives in a massive, pricey house worth millions, no surprise he's made a fortune scamming folks. He's a proper tech nerd and the mastermind behind all those loft insulation scam calls we've been getting.

Honestly, these folks are proper annoying. The number always starts with 01202 but they just swap a couple of digits around. We've told them loads of times, "do NOT call again," but I guess they don't get it. At this point, whenever I spot a number even remotely like that, I just ignore it completely.

I got a call from a bloke named Chris about some insulation. He said he was my local adviser, but when I asked where he was based, he mentioned South West London. I told him that’s a fair bit away from me - about 194 miles or so. After that, he kinda didn’t have a proper response and just said goodbye before hanging up. Bit odd, honestly.

I've been getting calls from this number loads of times a day. They dodge my call block by always beginning with 01202143 but keep switching the last three numbers so my barring doesn’t work. Proper annoying!

If you get a call from 01202 143186 or similar numbers starting with the same STD, it's usually that loft insulation firm. They mostly ring BT landlines. Best not to pick up - just block and report them straight away.

No idea who that was. As soon as I answered, they hung up after a couple of seconds. Probably one of those automated calls.

I keep getting calls on my landline from this number whenever I'm not in, and they never bother to leave a message. Just now, they rang once more, but at last I managed to block them! Honestly, what happened to the so-called 'reliable' telephone preference service?

Yesterday, I got 5 calls all starting with 01202, and then today I just got another. One of the calls from yesterday went straight to voicemail, and it sounded like a bunch of folks talking over each other loud and clear. Proper annoying. Glad I have caller ID to screen these things.

This morning, Chris got in touch after checking some old records just moments earlier. He said he was my local energy consultant, but that felt odd since he's from Bournemouth and I'm based in Hertfordshire. When he asked if I owned the house, I told him I didn’t, and he immediately ended the call.

I keep getting loads of calls from the 01202 area code, mostly ones starting with 143 and sometimes ending in 186, 173, 175 or 169. Honestly, they’re just a pain and pop up multiple times every day. It’s so annoying that I’ve started just unplugging my phone while I’m working!

I got a ring from someone called “Chris” who said he was my local energy efficiency advisor, even though the call came from more than 100 miles away. He went on about my home having old loft insulation or something like that. They’ve phoned before, even though we’re on the Telephone Preference Service (TPS) list, and I’m honestly fed up with it now. It’s just another unwanted sales call, which I believe is illegal and also breaks GDPR rules. I’ll be reporting them to Action Fraud and the TPS once again, but sadly, these scammers seem to know they can keep getting away with it.

I just had a ring from someone named 'Chris'. It was an automated message but sounded super legit. The system only responds well if you stick to their little script. The moment you say something unexpected, it just cuts off. Honestly, this one was way more clever than most I’ve come across lately, so looks like these calls are getting trickier.

Got a call earlier today from a polite young bloke about some sort of government insulation scheme for my loft. I seem to get these calls nearly every week. He kept going even after I said I wasn’t interested, maybe he couldn’t hear me properly or something. In the end, I just hung up and blocked the number, couldn’t be bothered with it.

Some bloke called Chris rang me up, said he was my energy advisor or something. Thing is, he was speaking all Bournemouth, but I'm based over in the east of England. Bit fishy if you ask me. Told him to do one and find someone else to bother. He hung up straight away after that.

I got calls from folks named Chris, Tom, Craig, and Simon but turns out they’re all just Stuart David Wright. The number’s linked to 21a Plymouth Road, Barnt Green, Birmingham, B45 8JF, registered under Stuart Wright. At least now we know where this con artist is based! Makes sense he’s got a pretty big house, given how many people he’s scamming!

They keep ringing me every single day, sometimes even a few times daily. The odd bit is they just switch up the last three digits on the number each time until I pick up. Proper annoying tactic, so keep an eye out for those tiny number tweaks.
