Phone number ☎️ 01202159294 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance linked to aggressive sales tactics for loft insulation, often involving callers identifying themselves as "Chris" or "Alex," sometimes claiming to be local energy advisors. The calls frequently come from varying numbers within a certain UK area code, with some callers hanging up abruptly or remaining silent.

Just so you know, I got calls from someone named Alex now, but before it was Chris from a Bournemouth number about loft insulation. This time the number started with London’s 020 and then a 4. Watch out for this trick!

This bloke’s been proper harassing women. He’s phoned me back to back every few minutes sometimes, switching up his numbers so it’s hard to block him. I’ve even begged him to leave me alone, tears and all, but it just made him ring even more. It’s absolutely not on. Honestly, this kind of behaviour should be treated as harassment by the police. Meanwhile, I’ve reported his silent calls and annoying sales calls to the TPS, the Information Commissioner, and Ofcom.

The first time they rang, I told them it’s a flat, and they just ended the call right away. When I got the second call, I said the insulation was already sorted, and again, they hung up. On the third one, I mentioned I didn’t own the place and was moving abroad, and still, they cut me off. This kept happening - on the ninth call, I told them the person living there had recently passed away, but they still kept pushing about roof insulation. I finally just ended the call.

Had a call from someone named Chris claiming to be doing a local environmental survey.

Someone called me talking about roof insulation and asked if I was the house owner. I just said “no thanks” and hung up straight away. Not sure how it all goes but it felt a bit dodgy, probably a scam or something like that.

HACE has been ringing me loads, switching up the last few numbers every time so I have to keep blocking each one. They claim to be from an energy company, but I manage everything online myself. They just keep contacting me, and it’s getting really annoying, so now I just ignore any calls that start with 01202.

There was no response, so I just ended the call.

This number, beginning with 01202159, keeps ringing me up several times daily, sometimes as many as 7 or 8 calls. I just let it go to voicemail now because it’s a right pain. They keep pushing the same spiel about loft insulation, claiming my place needs some added insulation or something. I played it clueless, telling them I had no clue what was in my loft, and they quickly ended the call.

We've made it very clear to them on several occasions that they must never ring us again. They keep calling about loft insulation, but usually the call just ends straight away (seems like an Auto Dialler). Honestly, if the Ombudsman stepped in and slapped them with a huge fine, like up to £500,000, it might put an end to all this rubbish. These calls are illegal without consent or a valid reason.

Got a call from some bloke called Chris, said he was an energy specialist. He started banging on with all sorts of dodgy stuff about attic insulation. When I told him I wasn’t bothered, he just said have a good evening and hung up. Bit odd, really. Neath here.

Got a call from some random number I don’t know, but as soon as I picked up, they just ended the call straight away. Not sure what the point was, really. Gonna block them now, no use having dead air like that!

I keep getting calls from 01202159294, sometimes as many as 8 times a day. It’s really getting on my nerves and I can’t seem to block the number. I reckon they might be switching it up with different numbers linked to that one. Honestly, it feels like an invasion of my privacy.

Had three calls over the last few months from someone saying he’s Chris, a local energy advisor, all coming from numbers starting with 01202. I've blocked and reported every one to the ICO. Would recommend you do likewise if he rings you.

Keeps ringing about energy deals, called me like 10 times today. Didn’t bother leaving a message on my answerphone either. When I finally picked up and told them to stop calling, they just kept going. I’m about ready to block the number through BT now.

Got a call on my home phone around half past five on Tuesday. The answering machine clicked on, and I could hear a sort of static noise, like someone was there, but then the line just went silent. The number was unfamiliar to me, and reading through the comments here made me think it’s definitely some sort of scam.

Got a call on my mobile from someone who acted like he knew me! He started talking about the yellow fluffy stuff in my loft - how bizarre, sounds like he’s reading my mind. He claimed my place was flagged or something and said I needed new insulation up there. I played dumb and just kept saying “yellow fluffy stuff” over and over… then he just hung up on me! 😂

Last month I got a call from some bloke called Chris, said he was from energy advisors for my postcode. He wanted to do a survey of the loft.
