4 yearsGreen Eco, a firm specialising in loft insulation. I'm really puzzled as to why the Information Commissioner's Office isn't taking any action regarding these nuisance calls. It’s a bit baffling, isn’t it?Green EcoInformation Commissioner ' sOffice5 yearsThey keep ringing me from a bunch of slightly different numbers. Its defo one of those dodgy energy advisor scams.5 yearsSpoke to someone called Alex who said he was an energy advisor. Not sure if he was legit or just another cold caller.Alexander5 yearsGot a call, no message left, so I’m guessing it’s probably a scam. I’ve blocked the number now.5 yearsIn the past month, I’ve been inundated with 21 calls from various Bournemouth numbers that fall under the 01202 159 and 01202 137 categories. Thankfully, I’ve got a TrueCall device that effectively diverts these pesky calls. So far, I’ve noted the following nuisance numbers: 01202 137 455, 01202 137 461, 01202 137 463, 01202 159 079, 01202 159 083, 01202 159 084, 01202 159 087, 01202 159 090, 01202 159 095, 01202 159 181, 01202 159 182, 01202 159 187, 01202 159 189, and 01202 159 190.Bournemouth5 yearsGot a missed call earlier and after seeing calls from similar numbers, I’m pretty sure it’s just another one of those dodgy scams about energy or insulation, supposedly from the “green eco centre” down in south london.Green Eco CentreSouth London5 yearsI’ve been getting calls from a bunch of numbers between 01202159153 and 01202159189. So far, six different ones have tried ringing me. Luckily, my BT call blocker stops me from picking up so they usually just hang up without leaving any message. From what everyone’s saying, these calls are definitely some kind of scam.5 yearsWhen it rang a third time, I finally picked up. Some bloke said he was 'Chris, your local energy advisor for this area.' I told him I didn’t buy it and to stop calling me. Knowing how these lot work, he’ll probably ring from another number tomorrow anyway!Chris5 yearsGot two calls from this number in just a couple of days. It sounded really familiar, like those other scam calls you get from loads of different numbers. A recorded voice claiming to be Chris, some local energy advisor or something, and you’ve got to say things to get through the spiel about your home insulation needing an update. Classic scam stuff if you ask me. What’s even worse is they seem to be able to “borrow” or copy real numbers. How is that even allowed? Seems pretty dodgy to me.Chris5 yearsGot a call from someone I didn't recognise, going on about roof insulation stuff. Bit weird, never asked for any info like that.5 yearsDidn’t pick up when these two numbers rang, and decided to block them both now anyway. Cheers!5 yearsThis bloke called me claiming to be from my local energy company, but my number’s ex-directory. I’ve had this guy ring before, and he just won’t stop chatting even after I asked where he got my number from. Anyway, I’ve blocked him now.5 yearsGot a call yesterday from a number finishing with 181 but no voicemail was left. I looked it up here and it seemed like another scam, so I blocked it. Just now, a call came in from a similar number ending in 189 and the same thing happened, so I’ve blocked that one as well. How do these people keep using so many different phone lines?! It's really frustrating since I'm ex-directory and signed up with the TPS.Telephone Preference Service5 yearsI've been getting calls from someone claiming to be an energy advisor, saying we need a loft inspection because of condensation risks. Every time I try to ask questions, they just avoid answering. I usually just hang up and block their number.5 yearsYesterday I got a call from 01202 159181, then today from 159189. When I answered, there was silence at first, then a bloke said, "Hi, I’m Alex, your local energy advisor. I believe you’re the homeowner.” I told him, "No, I just work here.” Then the line cut off. Pretty cheeky to assume the homeowner would even be picking up. Never come across a “local energy advisor” before - seems like just another annoying cold call to me.Alex5 yearsThis number rang me a few times. Thankfully, I've got call guardian set up, coz they are a right nuisance!5 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were a ‘local energy consultant’, but it felt like a total scam.5 yearsI've had quite enough of the 01202159 series of numbers, especially the likes of 189, 185, 186, 174, 173, 176, 175, 169, 161, and 164. It's becoming a right nuisance!5 yearsIt appears this time I received a pre-recorded message from Alex, who claims to be from my local energy supplier. I'm a bit sceptical, to be honest. I've got the Telephone Preference Service activated on my line, so I'm puzzled as to how these fraudsters managed to bypass it.Alex5 yearsI missed a call and they didn’t bother to leave a voicemail. I don’t recognise anyone from Bournemouth at all.Bournemouth5 yearsReceived a rather odd noise on the line, so I decided to end the call.5 yearsClaimed to be my energy consultant from just down the road, yet the chap was a whole 250 miles away! Quite suspect, if you ask me!5 yearsI received a call regarding an inspection of our loft insulation. The caller mentioned that our current setup was damp and allowing excessive moisture in. They were rather charming, claiming that someone would be in touch soon to arrange a visit for assessment. However, after doing a bit of digging, I realised it was a scam. I highly recommend anyone who receives a similar call to look out for the document titled 'Dealing with nuisance calls' - it might prove useful!5 yearsClaimed to be Alex from my local power company, but I reckon he generates about as much energy as I do at the ripe old age of 78. That is to say, absolutely none!AlexSubmit Your Own Report (01202 159189)
