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.

In just two days, I've had three calls from an 01202 number. It's definitely an energy scam - they just won’t give up.

Been getting loads of calls from this number and others that end with (173,172,168,162,166,164). Always marketing rubbish or scams. When a number I don't know rings, I just leave it, see if they say hello. If it’s real, they’ll speak, but if it’s a robocall, it just cuts off. Waste of time every time though, they really need to sort out better rules for this sort of thing!!!!

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.

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.

It definitely sounded like some kind of automated voice just gathering info for market research or something along those lines... felt a bit robotic to me.

Got calls from that number three times today. I didn’t pick up and it just went to voicemail every time, but no one left a message. Proper irritating, these random calls out of nowhere.

Got a random call about my driveway or something like that, but it definitely felt like one of those automated robocalls. Pretty annoying, to be honest.

This bloke's been calling me two times every day for more than a week now, reckons he’s Chris from the local energy firm, claiming to be working in our area. When I asked him to confirm my postcode, he just ended the call straight away. Told him to quit ringing me and to remove my number from whatever list he’s got. Got fed up today and gave him a proper telling off, hope that shuts him up!

For the last four days, I’ve been getting calls from this number twice daily, either in the afternoon or early evening. I didn’t pick up and just let it go to voicemail, but they never left any message. Looks like a sales call or maybe one of those robocalls. Proper irritating to get them so often.

This week I’ve gotten three calls from someone claiming to be from a local energy firm about insulation. I let them know it’s just a cold call and usually they hang up straight away. I seriously wish these calls would just end.

Chris kept ringing me, even after I'd told him over and over to quit calling. Eventually, I just had to stay quiet or swear at him till he finally put the phone down. Honestly, Chris, find yourself a proper job.

Got a call from someone named Chris who was doing a survey on loft insulation. He kept pestering me about my age, but I told him that it wasn’t any of his concern.

It’s Chris once more! He called about some scheme saying our home is listed as having bad loft insulation and they can sort it. I mentioned I work in construction, and he just cut off the call straight away. Wouldn’t say a word about what this “amazing” register was even for. Definitely one of those dodgy sales calls!
