Don’t pick up, it’s all just scammers trying to get you!

Chris is a right dodgy bloke. Honestly, you should definitely report this number to someone like the TPS, Ofcom, or the Info Commissioner. He keeps ringing over and over, proper sketchy. Honestly, I wish they'd slap him with a huge fine, that’d teach him a lesson.

I've gotten three calls from an 01202 number in just two days. It’s clearly an energy scam and they just won’t quit!

I've been inundated with calls from this number along with others finishing in (173, 172, 168, 162, 166, 164). Seems to be nothing but marketing ploys or outright scams, to be honest. When I pick up calls from unfamiliar numbers, I usually let them rattle on-if they're legitimate, they'll say something like 'hello'. If it's a robotic call, it tends to just cut off. However, it's still a right nuisance and definitely needs some stricter regulation!

Looks like they keep popping up with different numbers even after blocking, bit annoying really. They're clearly onto us somehow.

They've rang me a few times and I didn't pick up as I wasn't sure who it was. I thought it might be important but when I finally answered, there was silence which was pretty frustrating.

They rang me up two times but just put the phone down right after I said hi.

Got calls from someone about loft insulation but they keep using different numbers, so blocking doesn't help. They say their name is Chris and that they’re a local energy adviser or something like that. Total scam if you ask me.

Just got another call about insulation, that makes two times in like two hours! Seems like a total scam to me.

Got a call from a recorded message claiming to be from a home insulation firm.

I kept trying to ask where he found my number since I'm ex directory, but he just kept cutting me off and wouldn’t let me speak. Definitely some kind of energy scam, didn’t answer any of my questions at all.

They keep ringing from loads of different numbers, going on about insulation and energy efficiency stuff. I've told 'em over and over again that I’m not interested, but today I just lost it and was pretty rude because I’m just so fed up with it all.

This number keeps ringing non stop, like multiple times daily. I just ignore it since the digits look familiar and I’m pretty sure it’s just another insurance sales pitch. Won't bother answering.

I said hello, but all I got back was dead silence.

I've received three calls today from this number. Each time, we just let it ring and went to voicemail, but there was no message left. It's incredibly irritating to get these persistent calls from unknown sources.

Received an unsolicited automated call about insulation services that I didn't ask for. Quite annoying, to say the least!

I received an automated phone call the other day, claiming to have information regarding my driveway. Quite the curious event, I must say!

This caller has been pestering me twice daily for more than a week, claiming to be Chris from our local energy provider and that they’re operating in my area. When I inquired about my actual postcode, the bloke abruptly disconnected the call. I requested that he cease contacting me and remove my number from his list. Today, I'd had enough and told him to shove it. Fingers crossed that did the trick!

For the last four days, I've been receiving calls from this number, ringing me twice a day, once in the afternoon and then again in the early evening. I've been letting it ring through to my voicemail, but they never leave any messages. I’m guessing it's either a telemarketer or one of those automated calls, and it’s becoming quite irritating, to say the least.

The caller seemed unable to get through my call screening system.

I've received three calls this week from a chap claiming to be from the local energy firm, all about insulation offers. Each time, I’ve pointed out that it’s a cold call, which seems to make him hang up. I really wish they would just leave me alone!
5 years
Chris has been ringing us incessantly, even after we've made it clear that we’d like him to cease calling. It’s gotten to the point where I’m left with no choice but to go silent or unleash a bit of colourful language until he finally decides to hang up. Honestly, Chris, why not find yourself a proper job instead?

I received a call from a chap named Chris who was conducting some sort of survey regarding loft insulation. He persisted in inquiring about my age, and I eventually told him that it was quite frankly none of his concern!

Based on various remarks I've come across here, it seems likely that this number belongs to the same individual. Strangely enough, they didn’t leave any voicemail.

It's Chris once more! It seems our residence is listed among those with inadequate loft insulation, and they could offer some assistance. I mentioned that we're involved in construction, and he promptly said cheerio before cutting the call! He refused to elaborate on this remarkable register he was on about. Definitely a dodgy sales pitch, if you ask me!
