01202159298 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01202159298 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance scam typically involving a caller identifying as "Chris," "Tom," or "Matt," claiming to be local energy advisors offering loft insulation reviews. Despite being told recipients are on the Telephone Preference Service (TPS) register and not interested, the caller continues to use multiple numbers, often from Bournemouth, switching frequently to avoid blocking. The caller uses scripted pitches, sometimes becoming evasive or hanging up when questioned, and occasionally gives false company names. Many report no voicemail left and some suspect the calls aim to glean personal information or verify active phone numbers. While polite in tone, the calls are largely unwelcome, unverified, and potentially fraudulent, and blocking or ignoring such calls is strongly advised.

Got a call again from ‘Chris’ at this number, second time this week! Told him last time I wasn’t interested but he kept going on about loft insulation. Felt like he was just reading from a script. When I threw some tough questions his way and caught him out fibbing, he just ended the call straight away!

Got a bloke called Chris ringing me up, says he's an energy advisor and that I’m picked for an insulation check. Told him straight away I’m on the TPS and asked him not to call again, and he just hung up on me. He’s been calling from various numbers all starting with 01202, probably Bournemouth. Some of the numbers I’ve seen from him are 01202 794776, 01202 189277, 01202 189284, and just now 01202 159298. Would recommend being wary if you get calls from these.

Yet again, it's Chris on the line, this time from a fresh number, claiming that I’ve been chosen for an insulation assessment. When I challenged him about why he persists in ringing a phone that's registered with the Telephone Preference Service from various digits, he promptly hung up. Strangely, all the numbers he’s been using seem to originate from Bournemouth. The numbers in question are 01202 794776, 01202 159277, 01202 159284 and 01202 159298. Exercise extreme caution with these numbers as they appear to be part of a scam.

Looks like Chris is back at it with a different number! I queried him about his persistence on my TPS-listed phone, and he promptly hung up on me. It's peculiar-he seems to switch between names like Chris, Tom, or Mat, and is using a handful of phone numbers, all supposedly traced back to Bournemouth: 01202 794776, 01202 159277, 01202 159284, and 01202 159298. Quite the mystery!

My wife has been getting frequent calls lately from a chap who introduces himself as Chris, purporting to be our local energy consultant, using the number 01202 159298. I took it upon myself to pick up the latest call. Once he stated his identity, I inquired just how many times he'd previously attempted to contact us. After a brief hesitation, he shockingly claimed it was over 50 times. Curiosity piqued, I followed up with a simple "Why?"-only for him to abruptly cut off the line. Quite the bizarre encounter!

Some bloke called me on my landline, said my place was picked for some kind of energy check. When I asked him where my property actually was, he just went quiet and ended the call. What’s odd is he rang me on an ex-directory number!

someone called saying they were my “local energy advisor,” but they’re nowhere near my area. i never take deals over the phone, so probably just a spam call like usual.

So, got a call from someone named “Chris” chatting about loft insulation and how supposedly all my neighbours had a survey done. Seemed dodgy right from the start. He kept asking how old I was, and when I asked what company he was with, he said “Green Eco Centre, SW London”. Then he asked my age again. I told him I don’t share that info with random callers, and he said my age was really important. When I asked for a direct phone number to call back, he just ended the call! Total scam, avoid it.

I didn’t answer the first time they called, so I rang 1471 to see who it was. Since the number looked unfamiliar, I checked it out on this site. After reading what other people said about it, I decided this is a dodgy number. Thanks for having this site - it’s really useful. To anyone else who gets calls from this number, just don’t bother picking up. I’m definitely blocking it!

Got a call today even though my number’s on the TPS list. Reading through earlier comments, I’m guessing it’s those insulation scammers again, they seem to ring a lot lately.

I've been receiving calls daily from a Bournemouth number that begins with 01202 and changes afterward. It's getting rather tiresome! Are they really harping on about loft insulation? Honestly, I reckon these folks must be rather isolated; perhaps they lack companionship and just crave a natter. I might just suggest they reach out to the Samaritans instead.

I keep receiving calls from someone claiming to be Chris, who's apparently my neighbourhood insulation consultant. It's rather puzzling!

I recently received a call from a chap claiming to be Chris; though he's previously introduced himself as Tom or Matt. He purports to be a local energy consultant wanting to discuss my loft insulation, yet it’s evident he has no real insight into my property. Today, I swiftly ended the conversation as I've encountered him before, and he relentlessly sticks to a script, regardless of my responses. Given that others have informed me my number has been misused for spam, it makes me suspicious. Could he be trying to prolong the conversation to gather personal information for nefarious purposes? My gut instinct tells me to remain cautious about such calls.

They purport to be an advisor for loft insulation linked to the government and mentioned my postcode. When I inquired three times about how they obtained my number, they merely continued with their scripted pitch without addressing my question. Eventually, I hung up on them.

Oh, it’s that Chris fellow again, keen as mustard to chat about energy! I made it quite clear that I only converse with companies I've decided to engage with, not the ones that ring me out of the blue. He did try his luck again moments later, but I wasn’t in the mood to pick up. On the bright side, his accent was crisp and he had a courteous tone, I must admit. That’s something, isn’t it?

I had a rather amusing conversation with a chap named Chris who claimed to be an energy consultant. He informed me that my loft insulation had seen better days. I had to chuckle, as I pointed out that I don’t have a loft, or any of that yellow foam stuff for that matter, since my premises operate as an MOT station with no ceilings at all! Then, quite unexpectedly, he hung up on me! How cheeky! 😂

I've been receiving daily calls from this number, with a recorded message from someone named Chris. It's rather annoying, and the numbers keep changing each time. I'd like to find out who’s behind this and perhaps flag it to Ofcom.

I can't quite tell if this conversation was made official or not, but he keeps droning on about how my loft insulation poses a significant fire hazard and insists that I should have it replaced immediately.

He introduced himself as Robert Jenrick, claiming to be a government housing advisor. He mentioned he could assist me in dealing with my cladding situation! Blimey, what a turn-up for the books!
