5 yearsThere's this guy, Chris or maybe he uses a bunch of different names, who just keeps ringing non-stop. Trying to get him to take you off his list is pointless, trust me. I’ve found it’s better to just mess around and keep him on the line for as long as you can - weirdly, that makes him vanish for a while, sometimes a couple of months. Worth a shot if you’re fed up!Chris5 yearsLooks like those dodgy scammers from Bournemouth are at it once more.Bournemouth5 yearsThis morning I got a voicemail from some bloke called ‘Chris’ - he left no message, just silence. Happens mostly at times when I get those energy scam calls. It’s been popping up here and there for months now.Chris5 yearsI just ignored it, didn’t pick up.5 yearsI picked up but there was nothing but silence, then the person just ended the call.5 yearsThis number has rung me a few times already, and I never pick up. No voicemail was left either. Pretty sure it’s just another scam attempt.5 yearsSomebody called me rambling on about insulation in the loft and how using the wrong stuff can lead to black mould. Kept asking how old I was. I just told them I wasn’t interested and ended the call. Feels like it was some kind of scam to me.5 yearsGot a call from Chris claiming to be my local energy advisor, but the number was from over 150 miles away. I've got a bunch of calls before from 01202 159xxx, but this was the first time I actually picked up because I thought it might be a spam call. Told him to remove me from their calling list, but I'm still going to block the number just to be safe.Chris5 yearsHey, it’s Chris here.Chris5 yearsCalled but didn’t bother to leave a voicemail.5 yearsI picked up and they ended the call straight away.5 yearsHad another ring from some bloke calling himself Chris from the Green Eco Centre, saying my loft insulation might be causing dampness and offering a free survey (he claimed loads of homes nearby had already had it done). This is like the fourth time he’s called now. Last time, I told him straight-up that he was dodgy and smart-arsed, but he still keeps at it. Before I lost my temper, he asked what age group I was in, so I told him over 80. That seemed to do the trick, because he just said cheers and hung up. If he phones again, I might actually let him come round and see what’s going on.ChrisGreen Eco Centre5 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be my energy company, but they ended up just dropping the call abruptly. Pretty sure it was a scam.5 yearsHad a call from someone called Chris claiming to be from an energy saving firm, talking about loft insulation. When I asked how he managed to get my phone number since we’re registered on the Telephone Preference Service, he just disconnected straight away. I’m marking this as harassment because it felt quite dodgy, and I reckon some folks might fall victim to a scam like this!Chris5 yearsLoads of calls from different 01202 numbers recently. I just ignore them now since they never drop a voicemail. Before, it was always some bloke called "Chris" claiming to be an energy specialist, but it's pretty clear it's just a robot.Chris5 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be an energy adviser for the area. Felt a bit sus about it.5 yearsHung up as the answering machine started picking up once more.5 yearsGot a bloke on the phone saying he’s from the energy advisor around here, sounded dodgy so I just hung up straight away.5 yearsGot a couple of calls from some so-called energy expert within the span of two hours. Quite the persistence, I'd say!5 yearsI received a call from a chap named Alex who seemed to know I was the owner of my house along with my postcode. He was rather insistent about persuading me to switch my energy provider.Alex5 yearsSomeone informed me that my attic had issues with dampness.5 yearsReceiving calls from this number a couple of times daily. I'm planning to notify BT about this as it’s becoming quite the pestering bother.BT5 yearsI reassured my elderly mother that everything was sorted and there was no need for concern. However, she ended the call rather abruptly as she struggled to hear me clearly.5 yearsThe phone rang, then promptly disconnected without leaving a message. No follow-up call either. I'm quite puzzled about this number that's been calling me from Bournemouth.BournemouthSubmit Your Own Report (01202 159178)
