I used to be a director there, but the company changed its number a lot. The last three digits keep switching, and I keep getting loads of calls - all coming from that same one number.

It keeps calling me, but when I pick up, it just plays the same automated message every time. Even if you don’t answer, you get that exact message left on the answerphone. Definitely looks like they’re using some kind of power dialler to contact loads of people at once.

Ive had this number ring me a couple of times lately. It just buzzes once or twice and then cuts off before I get a chance to pick up. Definately one of those one ring scam calls!

Fascinating observation regarding the Bournemouth area code linked to 159... For ages now, I've been receiving calls from 01202 numbers on my home line, my work phone, and even from my mates and family members' devices. They're so rampant that I've taken to blocking any calls from that STD code-apologies to the lovely people of Bournemouth! It hadn't occurred to me to consider the 159 link since I was primarily focused on the varying last three digits.

I've got call blocking set up, so no voicemails are getting through. Lately, I've been inundated with calls from Bournemouth, all beginning with 01202159, but the final three digits keep changing. I've managed to block several of these, yet because they constantly alter the last three numbers, more keep slipping through. I thought registering with the Telephone Preference Service would help, but quite frankly, it seems to have had little impact. Maybe the TPS ought to evaluate how well they're really doing their job!

this guy claimed he was some energy saving rep but said he was nearby. problem is, i live miles away from bournemouth. he kept trying to find out how old i was, which i refused to say. played along just to see what he'd do, then he eventually gave up and ended the call. totally a scam, no doubt about it!

This number has rang me about four times over the last couple of days but never left a voicemail. Feels a bit dodgy, so I'm thinking it's a scam.

This number, along with a few others like it, has been ringing me nonstop the past few days. I didn’t pick up and they never left a voicemail. Definitely sounds like a sales call or maybe a scam. Not going to bother with them.

Got a couple of calls yesterday and another one today, each time it just rings for a bit then goes dead if I don’t pick up. Feels like one of those dodgy scam calls to me.

This was the first time a call somehow slipped past my BT Call Shield. When I picked up, it just sounded like a call centre ringing away. I ended up hanging up straight away.

Not a sound on the other end.

Got a call today from some insulation company trying to sell their stuff. The way it talked made me think it was some clever robot, like it was actually understanding what I said. Quite weird!

I've had three phone calls now from a chap named 'Chris' who claims to be discussing insulation. He says he's local to my area, but when I pressed him to confirm my location, he completely bypassed my question. I requested that he take my number off his list, and, as you might expect, he just cut the line. Seems to me like a potential scammer!

A gentleman rang me regarding loft surveys related to insulation. He claimed to be local, yet his accent suggests otherwise. I suspect this could be a scam.

I've had a comparable experience lately. I've been receiving numerous calls from this chap who refuses to reveal which company he’s associated with. If you try to interrogate him, he just keeps rambling on without pause. The whole thing feels eerily artificial, almost as if his voice has been recorded.

Just like everyone else has mentioned, I advised him to give our landlord a bell (though technically, we’re the homeowners!). He’s rung three times now-had a chat with him on two occasions, and he didn’t leave a message on the last call. Quite irritating, really!

I've received several calls from this number, but they haven’t bothered to leave a message. Quite peculiar, really.
