Phone number ☎️ 01202159173 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance involving cold calls from a Bournemouth-based caller, often using different numbers but linked to similar telecom prefixes. The caller, sometimes identifying as "Chris" or "Alex," typically pitches loft insulation services, claiming older insulation types may cause issues like damp or mould. Many recipients find the calls intrusive, particularly as they happen frequently, even multiple times a day, and are often unrelated to the actual property (e.g., flats without lofts).

Numerous users advise blocking, reporting to the Telephone Preference Service, and caution against engaging or returning calls, as they may lead to premium rate lines or further nuisance.

4 yearsInquiring regarding the insulation in the loft and mentioning that it might not meet current standards, given the material used!5 yearsThis number just rang me up. I ended up having to call them back. Such a pain, really annoying.5 years01202159183 rang me on the 7th of September, then 01202159182 called the day before, and 01202159190 was at it on the 5th. What a bloody pain!5 yearsThose Bournemouth insulation scammers are back on the phone, annoying again. Numbers like 01202159179, 01202159174, 01202159186, 01202159178, and 01202159158 keep popping up. Proper hassle makers, wouldn’t wish them a good day at all.Bournemouth5 yearsThis number has now rung us three times, which is strange since our number isn’t listed anywhere. The second time, I got through to a bloke called Chris and jokingly asked if he was the same Chris who tried flogging loft insulation to someone living on the ground floor. He just hung up on me straight away. They’ve called again but we weren’t home - bit daft and really unprofessional if you ask me!Chris5 yearsThey called me a few times but never left any message. Quite annoying! I've blocked the number for now, but I’m guessing they'll try again with a number that looks the same.5 yearsThey ring me a couple of times daily, its so annoying!5 yearsi dont know why but they hung up as soon as i picked up the phone5 yearsYeah, this number has rung us a few times already but they never bother leaving a voicemail, so it’s pretty pointless really.5 yearsI've been getting loads of calls from 01202159173 and other numbers like it, all from annoying cold callers who just won't leave me alone.5 yearsGot called by some lot about insulation, sounded like a dodgy scam to me. Watch out, folks!5 yearsGot a call out of the blue from some bloke named Chris, he was going on about old insulation causing damp or something. Felt like he was just sticking to a script, kept saying "don't panic" like it was some big emergency or whatever. I told him straight up that if I was interested in fixing my insulation I'd sort it out myself, then just slammed the phone down. Definitely felt dodgy to me.Chris5 yearsSomebody called saying they were checking loft insulation, claiming rock wool might cause damp and mould problems. Seriously, is this for real? Feels like just another trick to me.5 yearsHe mentioned it was about loft insulation and then just hung up on me.5 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with "Green Eco Centre" and that my home supposedly needed fresh insulation. They kept pushing for my personal info, which felt dodgy. As soon as I mentioned I was on the TPS list and didn't want cold calls, they just hung up. Seems like a classic scam to me.Green Eco CentreTelephone Preference Service5 yearsThey keep ringing like 3 or 4 times every single day, it's really getting on my nerves.5 yearsGot a call from Bournemouth again, but they didn’t leave any message. Probably just another one of those scam calls.Bournemouth5 yearsBeen getting loads of calls from 01202 lately, so I just ignore em and block the numbers now. Proper pain in the neck!5 yearsThese calls keep coming from all over the place, but they're total scams trying to trick you into ringing back. If you do, it puts you onto a premium rate number. Best advice: don't bother returning the call.5 yearsGot one of those loft insulation calls again, complete nuisance!5 yearsGot a call about loft insulation, but since we live on the first floor flat, I doubt the folks upstairs would be too happy about it. Blocked the number straight away. Also flagged it with Scammer Blaster 'cause they kept ringing non stop. I’m not one to lose my temper, but I sure don’t forget either.Scammer Blaster5 yearsI've had this number ring me like 4 times in half an hour. I never pick up since I always have the answerphone on. Pretty sure it's just some dodgy scam call, really tired of it now.5 yearsChris has rang me three times over the past few days! I already said I wasn't interested when he first got in touch, but he still kept calling twice more after that. Honestly, it’s pretty annoying how persistent he is.Chris5 yearsThey ring pretty much daily, but the last three digits are always different.5 yearsGot a call from some guy named Alex claiming he was an energy advisor nearby. When I pointed out his number was from Bournemouth, not local, he just ended the call straight away. Strange!AlexBournemouth5 yearsThis morning I got a call from 01202159173, with some guy claiming our home was marked for having old loft insulation. Weird because we don’t even have a loft at all. When I mentioned that, the bloke just cut me off abruptly. He said he was from something like the Energy Advisory Council, I think.Energy Advisory Council5 yearsKept ignoring the calls cuz the number looked unfamiliar. Been getting a couple calls every week from numbers that all seem pretty much the same.5 yearsThis has all the signs of a con to me, didn’t get any voicemail or anything, just keep getting calls from different numbers but the same area code.5 yearsMy phone has a call blocker so when this number rang, it only went through for one ring before it was blocked. Tried calling me but didn’t get through at all.5 yearsAnswerphone came on, then the number just hung up, no idea who it was.5 yearsI received a call from a chap with a proper English accent, asserting he represented the Energy Advisory Board. He mentioned that our residence was flagged in their records for having outdated loft insulation. To be honest, I was a bit confused about his intentions, especially since I promptly informed him that we don’t actually have a loft. The moment I said that, the call ended abruptly. I've come across other accounts online suggesting this is a common scam, though I don’t have further specifics.Energy Advisory Board5 yearsI received a call from someone purporting to be Alex, my energy consultant. I promptly told him to bugger off, as this marks the fourth occasion today that I've been hounded by someone named Alex!Alex5 yearsHad my second call today - the first one had the suffix 171, then came this one. If I ever manage to track these callers down, I might just make sure they never dare to pick up a phone again!5 yearsIt’s the same individual, but they go by various names - they call me three or four times daily!5 yearsI find myself pondering the same question as others-why on earth do the telecommunications authorities not take more decisive action against these annoying calls? It’s quite frustrating, isn’t it?5 yearsI received a call from someone claiming to be an 'energy consultant' named Alex. He mentioned he was nearby, but when I probed him about the Bournemouth number, he abruptly ended the call. Turns out, this number is associated with Digital Solutions Marketing. Their main gig seems to be telemarketing under the guise of conducting research, all to generate leads for loft insulation, which they pass on to local tradespeople. I'd recommend marking this one as a 'do not answer' on your phone, and if you're signed up with the Telephone Preference Service, consider reporting them.AlexBournemouthDigital Solutions MarketingTelephone Preference Service5 yearsI didn't receive any response when I attempted to chat.5 yearsJust encountered yet another insulation sales rep from the 01202 area. Over the past few days, I’ve already flagged a couple of them to the Information Commissioner’s Office…Information Commissioners OfficeSubmit Your Own Report (01202 159173)
