Phone number ☎️ 01202159497 👆 is reported as a persistent and intrusive nuisance scam primarily linked to loft insulation and energy efficiency. Callers often use varying local numbers to evade blocking and typically refuse to identify themselves fully. Targets include the elderly, with some posing as local energy consultants, but their claims are dubious. Many calls are silent or end abruptly when answered, suggesting fraudulent intent. Victims report harassment despite registering with the Telephone Preference Service. The scammer behind these calls is believed to be an individual operating from Birmingham, engaging in deceptive tactics to exploit homeowners. Users are advised to block all similar numbers, avoid engagement, and consider using answerphones to screen unknown calls. Reporting to relevant fraud authorities is recommended to mitigate this issue.

5 yearsHi, this is Scott, I work as an Energy Consultant.ScottConsultant for Energy Solutions5 yearsAs others have pointed out, this loft scam is run by some bloke named Stuart Wright. Apparently he lives at 21A Plymouth Road, Barnt Green, Birmingham. All the phone numbers connected to the scam seem to be registered under his name and that address. No surprise he's got a posh place - guess he’s been raking it in by scamming folk!Stuart WrightPlymouth RoadBarnt GreenBirmingham5 yearsThis phone number has been ringing non-stop, super annoying! Tried blocking it but they switch up the last numbers all the time, so it’s been almost impossible to stop them.5 yearsGetting loads of annoying calls about insurance from 01202189497, really getting on my nerves.5 yearsJust had a call about some energy saving deal which felt really dodgy, so I've gone ahead and reported it to Action Fraud. Feels like a classic scam to me.Action Fraud5 yearsNo voicemail or anything - now they’ve gone straight to call barring!5 yearsI keep getting loads of calls from almost the same number, but when I answer they either hang up or start going on about loft insulation or energy stuff. It’s really annoying!5 yearskeeps ringing saying he's checking the loft insulation for free, calls from someone named “chris”. when i ask for his full name or phone number he just hangs up straight away. quite annoying really.Chris5 yearsGot a call out of the blue someone talking about putting insulation in my loft. Was a bit suspicious, sounded like one of those cold calls trying to sell stuff. Didn’t really want to get into it.5 yearsTotal waste of time those scammers. I’ve put the 01202 area code on my block list, yet they keep ringing from other numbers. Keep at it, but you’ll never get through to me!5 yearsGot a call from someone named Tom about insulation we supposedly had done. We never had anything put in. Sounds like either some pushy sales call or a scam to me.Tom5 yearsI've been getting loads of calls from different 01202 numbers lately, and they're all pretty sketchy.5 yearsI have a feeling this could be one of those scams.5 yearsGot a call on my home phone.5 yearsAs soon as I picked up, they just ended the call.5 yearsI put it on speaker for a bit, like 20 secs, but there was just silence, so I ended the call.5 yearsYep, I answered and there was just silence on the other end. Feels like another one of those scam calls to me.5 yearsWish I had checked the number before answering. It took ages for the caller to say anything... Then a voice goes, 'Hi, this is Kris. How's your day going?' I replied, 'Hi, I'm alright cheers... but why are you calling me?' The person said, 'I'm ringing from your neighbourhood energy company.' (Not sure about that, as I don’t think there’s really a ‘local’ energy firm around here.) I said, 'Well, why bother calling when my number’s on the telephone preference list?' ... Then silence... and eventually, he just ended the call.Kris5 yearsThey kept saying they were from some local energy company, but I’m pretty sure they weren’t even nearby. This isn’t the first time they’ve called either - I just told them I wasn’t interested and ended the call straight away.5 yearsI told them I’m on the TPS list and then the phone just hung up.Telephone Preference Service5 yearsI got a call about loft insulation and whether I’d had it inspected lately. Then they asked if I was between 70 and 80 years old. I told them I was 100 and just ended the call! Definitely a scam or some telemarketer messing about 😂5 yearsAll those 01202 calls have gone straight to the blocked list now, especially the ones from the past few months. Total scam.5 yearsMy hearing isn’t the best, maybe because my old brain takes a bit longer to process stuff :-(. I thought it was someone genuine on the phone, coz they said "Hello, I’m" then a name I didn’t quite get. Then they said they were calling on behalf of... something I missed again... and something about my postcode. I replied, "Sorry, what was that?" Then suddenly the call just ended!5 yearsI’m on the Telephone Preference Service list and still got a call from 01202 159497. When their voice recording started, I just hung up straight away.Preference Service5 yearsHi, Kris here. Got a call asking 'How are you today?' then something about loft insulation, asking if I'm over 60. I said no. Feels like a scam aimed at older people to me. That number 01202159497 is now blocked.Kris5 yearsMy mate called back and after the ringing ended, there was this really long silence then a click. Now she’s a bit worried it might have been switched to one of those expensive numbers, maybe even overseas. Gt. Yarmouth.Gt. Yarmouth5 yearsAt first it took a bit to get them to actually talk, then they said they were Kris from some local energy advice service. They assumed I owned the place, but I told them I’m just renting and that the property belongs to a company, so there’s nothing I can do. They thanked me politely and ended the call. I can’t help thinking this might be someone working from home, trained to cold-call people to try to drum up business. It’s really annoying and honestly, it should probably be banned. From what I’ve heard, these calls come from various numbers with Bournemouth area codes. Since I know the number for the only person I expect calls from in Bournemouth, next time I get an 01202 number I don’t recognise, I’m just going to let it ring out.KrisBournemouth5 yearsI've been ignoring these scam calls from loads of different numbers, but it’s no use. I even let the automated voice keep going to waste their time, but nothing changed. When I jokingly told them I was 106, they just hung up. Then I said I was 26, but honestly, it’s just silly - these people are rude and seem to prey on older folks, which is completely unacceptable! People who do stuff like this are bullies and should be reported. It’s just awful behaviour, and one day they’ll be older themselves. Maybe then they’ll get a taste of how frustrating it is. Seriously, don’t call me again!NUMBER5 yearsKept ringing even when I wanted to ignore it, really annoying.5 yearsI keep my answerphone switched on all the time so I can avoid random or unknown callers. As soon as the recorded message starts asking them to leave a voicemail, most people just hang up straight away. Years back, BT suggested this when we had loads of silent and unwanted calls - their tip was to have an answerphone always on. If it’s something important, they’ll leave a message and then I can ring back. Makes life a lot easier!5 yearsMy phone has call guardian so the call never actually connected.5 yearsGot a no sound call, really weird.5 yearsI've been getting calls from loads of different numbers nearby, all from some insulation con artists.Submit Your Own Report (01202 159497)
