Chris has been ringing me non-stop today, it's got to be about eight calls already. I've told him once and begged twice to quit, but he just won’t take a hint. Feels like he’s doing it just for fun or something. I’d really appreciate it if anyone can report him, there’s loads of places online like TPS, Ofcom, or the Information Commissioner where complaints can be made. Hopefully, one day someone will put a stop to this annoying bloke.

Just got a call from someone claiming to be an 'Energy Advisor' asking if I owned the house. I said I didn’t, but they went on about loft insulation and wanting to come round for a survey anyway. They reckoned there’s issues with condensation up there due to old materials used in the past and said inspections should happen every couple of years. Then they started banging on about some government grant. I told them to send me the details through the post so I could have a look properly. They promised they would, though I’m not holding my breath, then said they’d ring back in a fortnight to set up the survey. Strange thing is, they called from a Bournemouth number but I’m based in Leicester.

So, someone rang claiming to be from MG about a loft insulation survey. They said my home was flagged as having old insulation that might be causing damp and mould. Apparently loads of my neighbours had already had this survey done. When I asked what they meant by "loads of neighbours", the caller just cut off the call! Bit dodgy, I think.

Got another call from what sounded like some robot pitching loft insulation. The giveaway was that weird long silence after I said anything. Tried throwing it a curveball with a silly question and the answer it gave back was just bizarre, totally robotic vibes.

This is the fourth time I’ve had a call from a number that’s almost the same but just changes the last few digits. I’ve blocked them all but they keep coming back with a slightly different ending, like 194, 273, 276, and 285 so far. It’s pretty annoying!

My missus picked up the phone and some bloke was saying that the council said our loft insulation wasn’t up to scratch with the new regs. He kept banging on about how it was a government thing but never wanted to say what company he was with. Sounds like a total loft insulation rip-off if you ask me!

They ring you out of the blue about loft insulation. It’s a total scam, so don’t bother with them at all.

Honestly, Bournemouth seems to have turned into a hotspot for scams lately, so I'd definitely avoid going there for a holiday.

These scammers called my mum pretending to offer loft insulation and other stuff. When she said she didn’t want anything, they started trying to freak her out, claiming her loft was going to be full of damp and needed fixing right away. She just ended the call, and I’ve blocked the number since. Absolute con artists.

My mum got a phone call from some scammers pretending to sell loft insulation and other stuff. When she said she wasn’t interested, they started trying to scare her, claiming her loft was full of damp and needed fixing right away. She just ended the call and I’ve blocked the number now. Absolutely a bunch of crooks.

Got a call from this bloke, and lucky for me, I wasn’t home or hed have got a right grilling. I usually let scammers know their mum must be heartbroken that her kid turned out to be a proper crook. It usually throws them off, and they start whining like ‘how dare you!’ or something mad like that. If they can’t handle a bit of stick, they really shouldn’t be ringing me up!

Just got a call for my mum from some scammers. They were trying to push loft insulation and a few other bits. When she said no thanks, they started with the scare stories about her loft being full of damp and needing fixing right away. She quickly ended the call and I have blocked the number now. Proper con artists, honestly.

Got a call from this bloke, lucky for me i didn’t pick up cos he would’ve been met with some serious words. I usually tell these scammers that their mum would be really disappointed that they turned out like this, proper criminals. Weirdly, it messes with them and they end up going ‘how dare you!’ or something. If they can’t handle a bit of banter, maybe they shouldn’t be ringing me!

Got another pesky ring from a 01202 Bournemouth number, seem to be getting loads like this lately, all starting with 01202-1591**.

This one was just like the rest - some annoying bloke called "Chris" telling me it was about loft insulation or something similar. Classic scam, he said it was for market research but it’s clearly a con.

Just got a call from 01202 159194 on my home phone, claiming they were doing some energy surveys. The guy said they’d already done one in my postcode and apparently my house's loft insulation wasn’t up to scratch. I told him our insulation was fine since we converted the loft about 10 years ago, but he insisted that his company could come out and do another survey to see if it met their standards. Bit fishy if you ask me!

Got another annoying call from a number starting with 01202 - this time one of the Bournemouth area codes. Seems like I’ve been getting loads of these lately, mostly from numbers beginning 01202-1591-something. The bloke on the other end, who calls himself "Chris", stuck to the usual script about loft insulation or some such rubbish. They often try to pass it off as a bit of market research, but it always feels like a scam. Proper cheeky!

Chris keeps ringing me, saying he's a local energy advisor and got my number from a government list. I've asked where he got it from, but he just keeps calling on and off for months now, even though I've signed up to the TPS.

Got a call that was completely silent. I kept the phone on the line, thinking maybe it’d run up the caller’s bill. After a bit, there was this odd siren noise, then around the six-minute mark, a voice told me to hang up and call once more. I only bothered to hang up though. Didn’t really mind - at least I used the time to have a quick go on my flute!

My mum picked up a phone call from these fraudsters. They were trying to pitch loft insulation and a few other services. When she said she wasn’t interested, they started with the scare stories, telling her her loft was full of damp and needed urgent fixing. She ended the call pretty sharpish, and I made sure to block the number afterwards. Proper scammers, no doubt.

I've noticed they call from a bunch of numbers, just changing the last few digits each time. They really should be reported to the telephone preference service.
