01202143199 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01202143199 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance from Bournemouth-linked numbers, these calls claim to be from local energy advisors or government insulation schemes but are widely suspected to be scams. Callers frequently use different variations of numbers making blocking difficult and often hang up or become rude when challenged. Recipients report automated or semi-robotic scripts asking misleading questions about loft insulation and homeownership, with some targeting vulnerable individuals. Despite registration on the Telephone Preference Service and blocking efforts, calls continue relentlessly. Many consider them deceptive, intrusive, and potentially aimed at exploiting elderly or disabled people. Users are advised not to engage, to report the numbers, and to be cautious about unexpected calls relating to home energy or insulation surveys, particularly when originating from unfamiliar area codes.

Claimed our loft insulation was outdated, but we’ve just moved into a brand new house!

I keep getting bombarded with calls from the Bournemouth region about insulation for homes. I've tried leaving them on the line, ceased answering altogether, and even disconnected my phone. I mostly rely on it for the internet, and I've requested my mates and family reach me on my mobile instead. It’s such a right pain, especially with the festive season around the corner since some of my relatives only ring the landline. There’s just no way to block them since they constantly switch to different numbers but always use the same code!

Got a call from someone claiming to be an energy expert nearby. Sounded a bit dodgy to me.

Like the rest of the feedback I’ve seen, these digits seem to be endless and all over the place. I’ve noticed a Bournemouth area code followed by 143276/215/208/199/194/187/176. This has only kicked off recently, but I have a hunch it mirrors some of the mobile numbers I've dealt with before. I simply don’t pick up and have been blocking each and every one of them.

Got a call from 01202 143 199 the other day. A bloke named John was asking if I’d gotten my loft insulated through a government scheme in the past decade or two. Since they rang my landline which isn’t on any public directory, I’m pretty sure they must have got my number from some list they bought.

I got a call from what sounded like some robot with a guy calling himself “Chris,” but it really was a machine underneath. If you pay attention, you hear those little clicks that show it’s just automated. When they can’t verify your address, it’s a scam for sure. Stay away from these!

Got a call from a number almost the same as before, no voicemail left though. I reckon it's just another insulation scam like the ones from other numbers that were really close but not quite the same. Reading through other people's experiences makes me pretty sure this is the same kind of dodgy call.

Just like everyone else, some muppet tried to sell me on supposedly being involved with that government insulation thing, whatever that's meant to be. Total nonsense.

Got a call on my landline from a bloke called Chris, who said he’s an energy advisor for my area and asked if I own the house. My number’s on the TPS, so I was a bit surprised. He also called my mobile earlier this morning. I was nice and polite then, but now he’s ringing every phone in the house - it’s really getting annoying!

Pretty sure this was a scam. The moment I mentioned I don’t own the house, he just ended the call straight away. Someone should report this number so authorities can look into it and stop others from getting caught out by this trick!

Got a call from 01202143199, some bloke named Patrick claiming he was from a local energy provider. I told him he wasn’t local at all since his area code was 01202, whereas mine’s 01206. He just hung up immediately after I said that. Quite cheeky!

Got a call from some guy called "Chris" claiming to be an energy advisor about loft insulation. When I asked if he was from a government agency, he said yes. Then I asked for his last name and he just cut the call straight away! Seems like a total scam to me, but now the number’s forwarding to 1572 or something.

Some bloke said he was my neighbourhood energy consultant and gave his name. I replied, "Didn't I have a chat with you last week?" There was a pause before he denied it. I insisted that it was definitely him, and after a strange pause he firmly said no. So I told him he must be a bot - a pretty convincing one if so, but a bot all the same. After another long silence, the call just ended.

Got calls a few times from someone about loft insulation. Every time I've said I'm not interested, they just keep going with their spiel like they didn't hear me. It's annoying and feels a bit like harassment. They even asked if I was over 60, which made me wonder if they’re trying to target older folks to take advantage. Best to just not pick up when they ring.

I've been getting calls from 01202 for what feels like forever! I always ignore them but they just keep ringing. The last few digits change every time, so it’s impossible to block them properly. I’ve contacted B.T. before about updating their call blocking to include whole area codes, and I reckon more people should do the same. Maybe these pesky callers would stop if they couldn't just keep switching numbers so easily!

My elderly mum, who’s 84 and has some health issues, got a weird phone call out of the blue from these dodgy lot. They told her she had a special code for a massive discount, like 75% off on energy stuff, and said they’d ring back in half an hour to set up a visit. I told her straight up not to pick up if they called again because it sounds like a total scam. She’s on the TPS list too, so technically they shouldn’t be ringing her at all. Fingers crossed she’s wise enough not to lose her hard-earned money to these muppets!

I got a call from someone calling himself 'Patrick', said he was from some "local energy provider", and wanted to check if I owned the house. Thought it was another dodgy scam, so I just ended the call and blocked the number. This muppet keeps ringing me loads over the past few months, always using a new name and some different story every single time.

Claimed his name was Chris and mentioned that he was an energy consultant operating in my region... However, I reside nowhere near Bournemouth. When I questioned how he got my number, he simply went silent and disconnected the call.

This number has buzzed my phone twice already today. I've put it on my unwanted caller list using BT 1572, yet it still managed to chime in once more this afternoon. It was a chap named Alex, trying to chat about solar panels. Quite persistent, I must say!

Received two calls today from someone claiming to be a 'local energy advisor.' It's becoming a right nuisance, as I seem to be getting these calls every single day. Aren't these sorts of surveys prohibited under the Telephone Preference Service?

I received a call the other day from what claimed to be an insulation advisory service. The voice had a rather robotic tone to it, which immediately raised a red flag. They proceeded to request that I spell out my surname for verification purposes. Naturally, I wanted to confirm how they had it recorded, so I inquired about their spelling. Oddly enough, there was complete silence in response. When I pressed the matter further asking for the caller’s name, he simply refused and cut the line. Quite the bizarre experience, I must say!

Received two calls today - unfortunately, I couldn't answer either and they didn’t leave a voicemail. This often suggests it’s just a telemarketer. It’s rather frustrating, especially since I’ve only shared my number with my nearest and dearest. Each time the phone goes off, I momentarily worry that something’s amiss!

This caller claimed to represent a community energy firm, but judging by the area code, it’s clear they’re far from local. The moment I mentioned that we weren’t the property owners, they abruptly ended the call. Quite odd, really!

I received a rather unexpected phone call from someone claiming to be Tom, offering me a complimentary survey for loft insulation! He mentioned he was associated with the Insulation Advisory Line and insisted that the loft insulation I purchased not long ago was the culprit behind some condensation issues. Funny enough, I had indeed bought a roll of insulation from my local B&Q! Is it possible that B&Q is passing on customer information to unregulated businesses?

I recently got in touch with the BT preference service, and they confirmed that the number in question is a scam. Apparently, it's a digit that’s been generated by a computer, and the last four figures change with each call. This means that the 1572 number doesn't effectively prevent these pesky calls from coming through. Quite frustrating, really!

He claimed to represent a pathways organisation. I was taken aback when he inquired if I still had a pathway; I replied in the negative. Then, rather oddly, he urged me to say it again.

Claimed to be our neighbourhood energy consultant, but considering I’m in Cheshire and he’s ringing from a Bournemouth number, I find that rather dubious! He mentioned that “we’ve got everything sorted” regarding loft insulation, but then added, “your insulation might be leading to dampness; our inspection is complimentary.” I assured him everything was hunky-dory on our end, and then he just cut the line! How inconsiderate! #Unbelievable

Received two calls today regarding loft insulation - ridiculous! We're situated in North Cheshire, yet they're using a Bournemouth area code. Cold calling isn’t welcome here, particularly since we’re on standby for a very ill elderly family member. Absolutely not the right time for this sort of intrusion!

I've been dealing with these pesky 01202 calls for what feels like eternity! It's quite maddening, really. I refuse to pick up, yet the calls keep rolling in, and each time it’s a different final digit. That means blocking them is a total no-go. I’ve reached out to British Telecom, suggesting they implement some form of area code blocking on their service. I highly encourage others to do the same! Perhaps if these nuisances had to keep uprooting themselves, they'd think twice before pestering us!

Received a so-called energy assessment from a "local energy consultant." Absolute nonsense! We’re nowhere near Bournemouth, so I suspect this is just a con.
