01202159161 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01202159161 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance call linked to a scam involving fake energy advisors, often using the name "Chris" and claiming to offer loft insulation surveys or energy advice. Callers frequently ignore when answered or end calls abruptly, refusing to disclose company names. Many recipients are registered with the Telephone Preference Service (TPS) and have reported repeated calls despite this. The number is associated with frequent bulk calling, targeting various regions beyond its local Bournemouth code and often aimed at older or vulnerable individuals. The calls typically attempt to pressure engagement or sales but hang up when challenged. Users are advised not to engage, block the number, and remain cautious of unsolicited calls claiming to be local energy representatives.

I got a call from 01202 159161 and at first, they claimed it was for a survey. But right after I ended the call, the same number kept ringing me every half hour throughout the entire day. It was really annoying!

chris here again - just a heads up, 01202 is definitely the Bournemouth area code but numbers starting with 1xxx arent possible since those are reserved for things like emergency services, operators and bt stuff!

I've signed up with the TPS and have flagged this number along with three other similar ones several times. The person on the phone, who calls himself "Chris," has been told repeatedly that we're on the TPS list. They seem to pause for a few weeks but then get back at it again. It's actually a dodgy energy scam pretending to be some sort of marketing firm.

I've been getting calls non stop from different numbers all starting 01202, always from the same batch or whatever. I try blocking every single one that rings but they just switch to a new number each time. Proper annoying!

He keeps ringing me up all the time, saying he's some local energy advisor or something.

I got a call from a bloke claiming to be Chris, said he was my local energy advisor or something. He wanted to know my name, but I wasn’t having it, so I didn’t say. Then he goes on about how they’ve noticed I haven’t had a home insulation check done and how that might cause damp or heat loss. Bit odd he’d know that without asking me first. Told him straight up to jog on after that.

They just hung up as soon as my answerphone kicked in - no message or anything, same as last time.

I ignored the call since the number was unfamiliar, but from what others are saying, it seems like it might be some sort of energy scam or just unwanted telemarketing.

I’ve noticed calls coming in roughly about 5pm quite a bit. Today, I just let it ring over to voicemail to see who it was, but the moment it went to answer machine, the caller just dropped. Thinking it’s probably another one of those scam calls, like what others have mentioned here.

got a call about 10 days back from someone called chris who claimed to be an energy advisor in the area, but it was from a different number so i just blocked it. he was talking about the insulation in my loft possibly causing damp problems. i mentioned that i’ve got family who are builders and they’d handle any damp issues if there were any. so when he rang me again today, i just ended the call right away.

I got a call from someone saying they were an energy adviser from around here, but as soon as they noticed I wasn’t picking up and just my voicemail answered, they went quiet.

I've had this bloke Chris ring me at work, even though we don't have a loft or anything like that. When I told him there was no loft, he just hung up on me. Now he's gone and called my home phone, tried the same chat, and when I asked which company he was from, the phone just cut off. Proper dodgy if you ask me.

Got a call from 01202159161 but didn't answer since I didn’t know it. They didn't bother to leave a voicemail either, so I just blocked the number straight away!

This bloke rang up claiming to be some “local energy expert nearby”. Didn’t mention what firm he was working for or even say which area he was from. Then he asked if I owned the house. When I told him I’m just a tenant, he quickly said “thanks for your time” and ended the call. Looks like a total scam to me.

So this number rang me at around 5:05 in the evening, and the caller claimed to be from the Eco Centre. They were quite courteous, but I told them my landlord handles all the energy stuff. When I asked where they got my number from since it’s ex-directory and I’m on the TPS, they didn’t respond. Then I just ended the call.

Claimed to be an energy advisor, but what a load of rubbish that was!

Got a call from someone claiming to be a "Local Energy Consultant" - turns out they're neither local nor officially approved. Definitely seemed a bit fishy.

Got a call from some bloke called Chris, says he’s an energy advisor or something. Number started with Bournemouth but I’m down here in Kent. Wouldn’t touch that number with a bargepole, looks dodgy to me. They’re also ringing from similar numbers ending in 156, 157, 158 and so on - total scam, fair warning!

Got a call from some bloke claiming to be a local energy advisor wanting to book a visit to check my loft. I'm in Suffolk but the number was from Bournemouth, which seemed odd. He then asked if I was between 50-80 or over 80. Once I said I wasn’t in that age range, he just cut off. Definitely seems like a dodgy scam targeting older people.

This number rings me around three times daily. I never pick up, it just keeps ringing till it almost goes to voicemail, but no messages are left. From what I can tell, it's some energy company trying to drum up business for loft insulation.

I got a call about seven times from around 2 pm till just after 5 pm. They were offering loft insulation even though I live on the ground floor in a flat! Totally pointless.
