01202143193 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01202143193 👆 is reported as a persistent scam operation targeting residents with unsolicited calls claiming to offer loft insulation or energy-saving services. Callers, often identifying as local energy advisors like "Chris," use multiple similar 01202 numbers, frequently changing the last digits to evade blocking. They rarely leave messages, often hang up when questioned, and ignore TPS registrations. The approach involves cold-calling, pressuring homeowners, and employing aggressive or evasive tactics. The calls are regarded as intrusive, sometimes silent, and linked to fraudulent activity around supposed energy schemes. Blocking individual numbers proves ineffective as they continuously switch lines. Users are advised to remain cautious, not engage, and report these nuisance calls to providers, highlighting the ineffectiveness of current call-blocking measures against this ongoing scam.

5 yearsThey purport to represent a nearby energy provider. Watch out for this loft insulation con!5 yearsI've been receiving calls on my landline from this number, as well as five others that start with 01202, over the past month. Every time they ring, they just go straight to my voicemail without leaving a message. I’m quite sure these calls are nothing more than a scam.5 yearsReceived a call from a chap named Chris regarding insulation for my loft.Chris5 yearsThis number, and a few very similar ones just off by the last digit, have called me quite a few times in the past week. It’s baffling because I’m on the TPS, my number’s ex-directory, and I even use BT Call Guardian. Honestly, BT should really do something about this mess!BTTelephone Preference Service5 yearsBe careful - it's defo an energy company scam. They call loads during the day and every time they ring, they tweak the last three digits of their phone number. So when you block one number, another one pops up that looks almost identical except for those final digits. It's like they keep switching numbers just to get through to you again. This keeps happening for days on end.5 yearsBe careful with calls from Chris, Tom, Craig, Simon or Patrick - turns out they're all the same bloke called Stuart Wright, born 19/01/1965. The number, plus others linked to this scam, traces back to 21a Plymouth Road, Barnt Green, Birmingham, B45 8JF. Funny that this fraudster lives in a posh house worth millions! No surprise he’s always ringing about loft insulation scams - this guy's a proper tech whizz behind those annoying calls.ChrisTomCraigSimonPatrickStuart WrightPlymouth RoadBarnt GreenBirminghamB45 8JFStuart5 yearsGot calls from various names like Chris, Tom, Craig, Simon, and Patrick linked to this number. Turns out it's connected to a Stuart Wright, born 19/01/1965. His address is 21a Plymouth Road, Barnt Green, Birmingham, B45 8JF. Looks like this guy's got a posh place worth millions and still keeps ringing up people with bogus loft insulation offers. Such a tech whizz too, probably why he's behind all these scam calls! At least now we know exactly where this con artist is based.Stuart WrightPlymouth RoadBarnt GreenBirminghamB45 8JF5 yearsI’ve had non stop calls from 01202 numbers for what feels like forever. I don’t pick up but the calls just keep flooding in. The problem is the last few digits change every time, so blocking them doesn’t work. I even contacted B.T. to see if they could block by area code, and I reckon others should do the same. Maybe these annoying salespeople would give up if they had to keep switching their number that often!BT5 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Chris, said he was my local energy advisor. Definitely a scam though.Chris5 yearsHe claimed to be some kind of consultant, but the moment I asked which company he was with, he just ended the call.5 yearsGot a voicemail about some insulation or something, and it just felt really dodgy, like one of those scams.5 yearsGot a call from 01202143193 and it was obviously another scam, flagged as risky for good reason. Whenever these fraudsters ring up, they’re just after your cash no matter the story they spin. These annoying calls are seriously getting out of hand, it feels like we’re stuck with no real solution. This scam business is booming, especially in countries like India, and it’s spreading fast. It’s frustrating that there’s so little we can do to stop it, clearly something's not right here.India5 yearsGot four calls today from numbers beginning with 01202143 but the last three digits kept changing, so clearly the same scam. They hang up as soon as I let the answerphone pick up, really annoying.5 yearsIve had calls from 01202143175, 01202143184 and 01202143193 on different days this week - they all seem to be carrying out some kind of "energy saving" scam, just cold-calling people.5 yearsHad to block this number once more, can’t stand getting calls from them!5 yearsThey rang me up twice today even after I said I’m on the TPS list from the first call. They’re pushing spray foam roof insulation, offering a free survey but only to people over 50. When I asked about any downsides of spray foam, they just dodged the questions. Then they started saying that my rock wool loft insulation might cause issues and insisted I needed a survey. When I pressed about the risks with spray foam or why they were calling a number on the TPS, they just hung up on me. I’ve blocked the number now.TPS5 yearsThis number called me even though I've put my number on the TPS list. Definitely some kind of scam. I've decided to block it now.TPS5 yearsDidn't get a voicemail yet again - numbers like this one seem dodgy to me, probably scammers, so I'm just gonna block them straight away!5 yearsWe’ve had our answerphone ring like 8 times from these guys, but they never actually say anything or leave a message. Real businesses usually leave a note instead of just constantly ringing. Seems to me they’re just trying to sell something, probably annoying telemarketers.5 yearsAs soon as I picked up, they hung up straight away. From what I've seen on other websites, this might be one of those new scam calls.5 yearsBeware, this is a scam! They claim to be from EON energy and ask to talk to the "homeowner," but they're just fraudsters who don’t have any real details like your name, energy supplier, or account info. Don’t fall for it.EON energy5 yearsThis number keeps popping up with that 01202 code, and I’m always having to block it. I’m on the TPS list, so they really shouldn’t be contacting me. Guess I’ll just keep dealing with BT 1572!5 yearsGot called for the third time today by these annoying lot, this time from a different 01202 143### number. I've blocked each one but they just keep coming! Honestly, the TPS isn't doing its job at all.5 yearsI answered one of these calls before and they just hung up without saying anything. They’re never gonna catch me off guard, but still, these calls come through nonstop all day long.5 yearsDid they even check for damp in our loft once the insulation was put in? Feels like they’re just trying to drum up business by making me worry more!5 yearsHere’s a handy trick: When they ring, tell them you need to pause the telly for a sec, then quickly grab your smoke alarm or CO detector (mine sits on a shelf). Come back and hit the test button right into the phone on loud. It’s brilliant! Managed to completely stun two of them just today.5 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be “Chris” about some gov insulation deal here. Sounds like the exact same guy and pitch I heard a few days ago!Chris5 yearsI picked up and it went straight to an answerphone, then this bloke kept saying "hello, hello" over and over.5 yearsThis number has bothered me three times already today. Since I work at home, its super annoying. They never leave a message. When I finally answered the third time, I waited about 40 seconds with nothing said, then I told them to stuff it. Also had a couple calls from 01202 143192 and 01202 14382 earlier this week.5 yearsGot two calls from this number today. I answered with a hello but there was complete silence on the other end. No clue who they were.5 yearsGot a call from some bloke pushing loft insulation. Didn't really want it but he was pretty persistent.5 yearsSo this geezer rang me up about loft insulation yesterday and again today. When I asked how he managed to get my number, he just hung up on me both times! Wouldn't even tell me who he was working for. Proper rude and a right pain. I've blocked him now, any more calls from that number just going straight to junk voicemail.5 yearsSelling loft insulation was never going to be easy for me, mainly because I don’t even have a loft in my house.5 yearsJust got a call from someone claiming to be with the home insulation advisory board. They said my house showed up as having the outdated loft insulation.5 yearsThis bloke Chris, who says he’s an energy advisor from around here, keeps ringing me up. He always wants to check if I own the house, but when I ask him to clarify which one, he just ends the call. It’s really frustrating.Chris5 yearsThis bloke called, said his name was Chris and he was with some energy company. I asked "Sorry, what was that again?" and instead of just repeating, he snapped at me "Can you say that again?!" Right there, I clocked he was some kind of scammer and just ended the call.Chris5 yearsGot two calls from this number, one was today on Nov 12th and the other one was last week. Both times, complete silence on the other end - no talking or even a faint sound, not even breathing. Weird!5 yearsthis number has called me around 7 times now, always asking about solar panels. quite annoying really.5 yearsGot a call from this number a few days ago, then again twice just today. Quite persistent!5 yearsRight as soon as I answered, there was nothing but silence on the other end.5 yearsPicked up the call, but it just cut out on me.5 yearsGot a call out of the blue trying to push some sales stuff, told them I wasn’t keen and they just ended the call straight away.5 yearsGot a call about loft insulation the other day. Honestly, the bloke on the other end was pretty rude. I was actually feeling quite cheerful and was ready to be polite, but he just didn’t seem interested in being friendly at all.5 yearsSome bloke rang me, saying he was an energy advisor from the area. I told him to get lost and quickly blocked his number.5 yearsI said hello but all I got was dead silence, then they just ended the call. After seeing what others said here, I decided to block the number.5 yearsI've been getting calls from this number on my work fax. Whenever they ring, I hit the answer button and they end up hearing this awful screeching sound. Funny thing is, I actually work in a supermarket that doesn’t even have an attic to put insulation in. Oh well, it gives me a laugh!5 yearsGot four calls from the same number today but no one's picked up and they didn’t even bother to leave a voicemail.5 yearsGot calls from people named Chris, Tom, Craig, and Simon, but turns out it’s all the same guy: Stuart David Wright. The number links back to 21a Plymouth Road, Barnt Green, Birmingham, B45 8JF, where Stuart Wright is registered. At least now we know where this con artist’s based! No surprise he has a posh big house, with all the scams he’s pulling on folks!ChrisTomCraigSimonStuart David WrightPlymouth RoadBarnt GreenBirminghamB45 8JFStuart Wright5 yearsSo apparently Chris, Tom, Craig, or Simon is actually Stuart David Wright. The phone number links to 21a Plymouth Road, Barnt Green, Birmingham, B45 8JF - all under Stuart Wright’s name. Funny how the guy's got such a grand house, but maybe that’s because he spends his time scamming folks. At least now we can figure out where this dodgy bloke calls home!ChrisTomCraigSimonStuart David WrightPlymouth RoadBarnt GreenBirminghamB45 8JFStuart Wright5 yearsSo I found out that the bloke calling as Chris, Tom, Craig or Simon is actually Stuart David Wright. The number is linked to 21a Plymouth Road, Barnt Green, Birmingham, B45 8JF with a Stuart Wright listed there. Looks like we’ve got a bit of a fraudster living in a rather large house, no surprise considering how many folks he’s been ripping off!ChrisTomCraigSimonStuart David WrightPlymouth RoadBarnt GreenBirminghamB45 8JFStuart Wright5 yearsGot a call from someone named Tom saying it was about loft insulation they’d supposedly just put in. I never had any done recently so I just ended the call.Tom5 yearsGot a call from Bournemouth with a new number, 01202143193. Pretty sure it’s the same annoying telemarketer trying their luck again. Total pain in the neck!Bournemouth5 yearsI've just started ignoring my phone, letting everything go straight to voicemail. So Chris, or whoever it is, do us both a favour and quit calling. I'm not picking up anymore.Chris5 yearsI’ve been getting loads of calls from 01202 numbers for ages. I don’t pick up, but they just keep ringing. The last few digits are always changing, so I can’t put a block on them. I even spoke to B.T. to see if they could add the whole area code to their call block, and I’d suggest everyone else tries doing that too. Maybe these annoying people would think twice about pestering if they had to keep changing their number!BTSubmit Your Own Report (01202 143193)
