Like many have said before me, it's just silence on the other end, so I mark it as unknown (and probably annoying). I just don't pick up when I don't recognise the number. If it's something urgent, they'll ring again, leave a voicemail, or send a message.

Just got a call from 01202159516, but as soon as I picked up, they went silent and then hung up.

On 2nd Sept 21, I got a call on my BT landline from 01202 159165 in Bournemouth. Luckily, I had already looked at other reviews because I was ready to tell this 'Chris from local energy advice' that I wasn’t interested. I ended up reporting the number to bt.com/scams. Glad I checked first!

I got a missed call from 01202159165 on my home phone. I was a bit suspicious about the number, so I didn’t bother calling it back. After looking it up here, turns out it’s a scam. Glad I didn’t pick up!

I keep getting calls on various 01202 159 HHH numbers, and it's always from someone I don’t recognise. They ring me multiple times every day.

So now they’re showing up as 01202159167 on caller ID. If that don’t scream scammer, what does? Honestly, it should be against the law for these lot to mask their actual number when they ring. And the worst bit? You sign up with the TPS to block cold calls, but these tricksters just ignore it completely. They dodge fines from the ICO by claiming bankruptcy, then carry on like nothing happened. It’s a proper merry-go-round of fraud.

I got no reply at all, just silence on the line. They rang me three times, always the same area code but the last few numbers kept changing.

At first, it seemed like a normal call when I answered, but once I asked something, I caught on it was a recorded message since the voice kept going even as I spoke. When I went quiet, there was this awkward pause, then the message replayed exactly as it did at the start of the call. Be careful not to share any details about your address, home type, or loft insulation with them.

Some bloke called, said he was Chris from an insulation advice service in Reading. Told me my house was one of the last to get checked for old loft insulation that might be causing problems and could save me like 10-15% on energy bills. He wanted to know if my insulation was the original stuff - I said yes. Then he asked how old I was, and I didn’t want to say. When I asked him to give me his details again, he just hung up. Sounds dodgy to me, and how on earth did they find my number linked to my address? I’m on the TPS and not on any directory. Best to steer well clear of these calls!

Got a call but no one's there on the other end. Pretty annoying to get silent calls like this.

I don’t pick up calls from numbers I dont recognise. This one left no voicemail either. I’m ex-directory and signed up with the TPS, so don’t get why they’d call me.

some bloke rang up saying he was from a company doing loft insulation and energy stuff, wanted to know if I was the homeowner. my missus got straight off the phone since we never asked for their call, plus our number’s unlisted and on the do not call list.

When I picked up, there was nobody there. I've signed up with the TPS, so why isn’t this number blocked?

Received a call on the 1st of September, yet they didn't bother to leave a message. The number seems to be linked to a solicitor based in Bournemouth.

Received a call from this number, but they didn't bother to leave a message, so I chose not to return the call. It appears to be linked to a solicitor's office in Bournemouth, which is a bit surprising as I have no ties to that area at all, considering I'm residing in Nottinghamshire. Isn't it amusing to get an unexpected call from a solicitor? Quite the coincidence indeed!

A caller rang me up claiming that my loft insulation is no longer up to standard, probably trying to push some overpriced replacement. I didn’t let him carry on with his sales pitch and just hung up. This happened on the 1st of September.

There was no voicemail left. I reside in Dorset, so it’s quite possible that it might have been a genuine call, but after perusing the previous remarks, it’s evident that’s not the case at all!
