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.

It appears that the individual behind these deceptive calls goes by the name Stuart Wright, born on the 19th of January, 1965. This number, along with others linked to the same fraudulent activities, is traced back to 21a Plymouth Road, Barnt Green, Birmingham, B45 8JF. At least we’ve pinpointed the den of this con artist! It’s hardly surprising that he resides in such an extravagant property worth a fortune, seeing as he’s busy tricking unsuspecting victims! He’s quite the technology enthusiast and seems to be the mastermind behind every dubious loft insulation marketing call.

Is there any information on whether this gentleman has been flagged?

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.

Yesterday, I received five separate calls from the 01202 area code. Remarkably, I've just had yet another one today! One of those calls yesterday ended up in my voicemail, but all I could hear was a cacophony of people chattering away. Quite irritating, to say the least! Thank goodness for my caller ID feature; it’s been a lifesaver!

This morning, I had a rather peculiar experience. A chap named Chris rang me, purporting to be my local energy consultant. Oddly enough, he’s based in Bournemouth, and I reside in Hertfordshire. He inquired if I was the homeowner, to which I replied in the negative. Quite abruptly, he ended the call. It all felt a bit dodgy, if you ask me!

I've been noticing quite a few calls coming from the 01202 dialling code, particularly ones that begin with 143 and have numbers ending in 186, 173, 175 and 169. Honestly, they’re nothing but a pain - I receive multiple of them daily, and it's really quite bothersome! I've resorted to unplugging my phone while I'm working to keep the interruptions at bay!

This chap keeps ringing me up claiming that the loft insulation I supposedly had installed is leading to mould issues. The thing is, I've only been in this house for a year and haven’t even had any loft insulation done at all!

I received a rather dubious phone call from someone named "Chris," who asserted they were my designated energy efficiency consultant. Quite amusingly, the call was placed from over 100 miles away! They claimed my home was flagged in their system for having outdated loft insulation, among other things. This isn’t the first time I’ve had the misfortune of being contacted by them, nor will it be the last, even though I’m on the Telephone Preference Service list. Honestly, I’m thoroughly fed up with these persistent nuisance calls. It’s clearly an unsolicited marketing attempt that runs contrary to GDPR regulations. I shall once again lodge a complaint with both Action Fraud and the TPS. However, as these scammers are seemingly aware of the loopholes in the system, I doubt anything will actually come of it.

I had a call not long back from someone who introduced himself as Chris. He mentioned that my residence was listed as having "traditional loft insulation that's seen better days." Naturally, I shot back quite brusquely, "Which property are you referring to?" and just like that, the line went silent.

I recently received a ring from someone named 'Chris'. It was one of those automated calls that feels surprisingly lifelike. The system relies on straightforward responses, and if you stray from their anticipated replies, they just cut you off. It's definitely one of the more convincing ones I've encountered, which suggests they’re becoming increasingly clever with their tech.

Lately, we've been inundated with a minimum of two to three calls each day. They seem to be from some automated system named 'Simon,' and all the numbers start with 01202 143, with just the last three digits altering every now and then as I manage to block them.

Received a call earlier today from a well-articulated young chap who was keen on discussing a survey related to a government-endorsed insulation initiative for my loft. I tend to get these sorts of calls quite regularly, almost weekly, in fact. It struck me that he might be a bit hard of hearing, as despite my clear disinterest in pursuing the chat any further, he just kept on rambling. Eventually, I decided to end the conversation and promptly blocked the number.

I had a rather peculiar phone call from a chap claiming to be Chris, my local energy consultant. It struck me as odd that a voice from Bournemouth would be looking to give advice in the eastern part of the country. I didn’t take kindly to his pitch and told him to find a different target for his nonsense, after which he promptly hung up. Quite the cheek, if you ask me!

It seems we've hit the jackpot in identifying this individual! The number belongs to a Stuart David Wright, residing at 21a Plymouth Road, Barnt Green, Birmingham, B45 8JF. Quite the posh address for someone dabbling in questionable activities! One can only speculate how he can afford such a lovely abode, given his apparent talent for duping others. It's always beneficial to shed light on these characters and their shady dealings!

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.
