01202159515 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01202159515 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance from Bournemouth numbers linked to a scam involving false claims about loft insulation and energy advising. Callers, often using varying similar numbers and the name "Chris," target landlines - even those registered with the Telephone Preference Service - making numerous daily calls without leaving messages. They pressure recipients with urgent claims about insulation needing replacement or government-related surveys, frequently hanging up when challenged or questioned. The calls are widely suspected to be fraudulent and breaching data protection rules, exploiting vulnerable people including the elderly, and evading call blocking efforts by changing numbers slightly. Regulatory bodies like Ofcom and Action Fraud have been notified, and the general advice is to avoid engagement, block the numbers, and report such calls promptly.

I received a call on the 28th of September 2021. This fella, claiming to be Chris, my supposed energy consultant, has tried to ring me multiple times from Bournemouth, using various phone numbers. He’s rather eloquent in his speech. I usually just hang up on him, but I'm starting to wonder if it might be quite entertaining to string him along a bit. Perhaps I should dish out some completely fabricated details!

I've been bombarded with as many as four calls daily from this number and others starting with 01202 159.... They seem intent on peddling insulation products.

Got a call from some bloke claiming to be 'Chris from Home Improvement, again'. Was trying to sound all matey and familiar. We're on the TPS list, so they shouldn’t be ringing us up. This isn't the first time either - had a few calls like this trying to chat about saving energy on the house. Proper annoying!

They're definitely flouting the rules by ringing numbers signed up with the TPS. Every time they call, they tweak the last three digits, so it's really hard to block every single one. They seem to go after vulnerable people, setting up appointments for jobs that aren't actually necessary. My 90-year-old mum is getting calls nearly every hour. I've got a call blocker that stops most of them, but not all, especially since they pretend to know you so the call gets put through.

Last week, I received multiple calls from a chap named "Chris" using an unlisted number. He claims to be an energy advisor from the area, but something feels off. It’s quite likely a scam, as he abruptly hung up the moment I mentioned that this is a private line and he had no business calling!

Got a call from Chris again yesterday, though the last few digits were different from before. I was like, "Oh no, not you again!" and he just went silent before hanging up. Proper annoying. I don’t get why the BT Telephone Preference Service doesn’t stop these calls, seeing as they come from a landline number???

So, yesterday this number 01202 159514 rang me and I put it straight on block. Then today, guess what? Another call came from 01202 159515! They really don't stop, do they? I ignored it and let it ring through to voicemail. Of course, no message was recorded. It's clearly some sort of scam. Proper irritating. The new number is blocked now as well.

I've been getting calls from this number constantly, along with some others: 01202159515, 01202159524, and 01202159484. To be honest, I don't pick up the phone, and it seems like they have nothing worthwhile to say because they never leave a voice mail. So annoying!

I’ve been inundated with incessant recorded messages from Green Eco, a firm offering loft insulation. My business phone has been bombarded by their relentless barrage for the past several weeks. It's rather vexing!

That bloke 'Chris' has been ringing me non stop lately. Normally I just hang up straight away, but yesterday my step mum got all worried because he’d phoned her up claiming he’d be sending someone to check her loft out. So when he called me again, I decided to tell him exactly what I thought. Oddly enough, he hung up before I even got to finish having a good go at him! Bit disappointing really!

I recently encountered a firm calling itself "Eco Green Energy Centre Ltd." Their website claims a base in Cumbria, yet they’re utilising landline numbers from Bournemouth, which raises some flags. I've found them to be quite the nuisance, as they've been bombarding me with cold calls from a plethora of different numbers. At present, they seem to be ringing from numbers beginning with 01202 1595, and the last digits seem to vary from 01 all the way to 99. The names they’ve provided during these calls include "Chris" and "David", though I’m unsure how genuine those are. When I queried them about the source of my details, they went silent, which I suspect is a clear violation of GDPR regulations. To make matters worse, their calls often manage to bypass the Telephone Preference Service, which is quite concerning. I’ve taken the step of reporting them to both the TPS and Action Fraud regarding their questionable practices.

Received a plethora of calls from someone identifying themselves as Chris, a supposed energy consultant. It’s become quite maddening, as this relentless string of calls has been plaguing me for weeks now, and strangely enough, they all seem to be coming from Bournemouth. It’s definitely more than just a coincidence!

I keep getting calls from this outfit called ‘the solar centre’ a couple of times a week. At first, it was a guy named Alex ringing, but today he suddenly switched to a Chris - not sure if it's the same person or not! I've tried everything: being polite and asking them nicely to take me off their list, having a laugh and doing a bad Manny from Fawlty Towers impression, or just keeping them chatting for ages before telling them to jog on. Honestly, I can’t fathom how these lot manage to face their mums without feeling awful.

This bloke called Chris keeps ringing me, using lots of numbers that are almost the same. I keep blocking them, but somehow he still manages to get through each time. He always claims he's from the Government and doing loft insulation around here, but I live in a ground-floor flat, so no loft at all! Proper annoying. So, this time I decided to blow a police whistle down the line, which is my usual trick to deal with these scammy calls.

Referring to loft insulation, it seems there's some sort of registry for it? The call I received was so rigidly rehearsed that it was a challenge to ascertain whether I was speaking to a real person or merely an automated system that kept pausing for me to respond. It was an unsolicited call, yet it didn’t seem too menacing, if I’m honest.

It appears that I've stumbled upon yet another dodgy number. They never seem to leave a voicemail, so I simply ignore the call. After a moment's pause, I check my recent dialled numbers, and it's the same old story. It's curious how these pesky scam calls frequently emerge from Bournemouth!

Indeed, it’s that Chris from the energy firm again. He just won’t take a hint and continues to ring me, even after I've requested multiple times for my number to be taken off their list. I’ve taken to simply answering the call and then leaving the line quiet until he wanders off. It’s rather frustrating, to say the least!

I received a call from 01202 159515, claiming that the standard loft insulation in my home was now illegal and required immediate replacement. They were rather intrusive and inquired about my age, suggesting that it played a role in determining the subsidies I might qualify for. When I questioned the rationale behind this, they abruptly ended the call. Chris was quite courteous, but make no mistake, they're definitely up to no good.

I had a conversation with someone who identified themselves as 'Chris', claiming to be my local energy consultant. They mentioned that I still had outdated loft insulation. However, the moment I revealed that I’m a builder and have already converted the loft, they abruptly ended the call. I can’t shake the feeling that this might be a scam of some sort.

I recently received a phone call from someone claiming to be "Chris." He said he worked for my "local energy consultants" and mentioned that "his records indicate I have outdated insulation in my loft." I pressed him for more information, asking for specifics about where and when I'd last bought materials for my loft insulation. Instead of answering, he simply hung up. Quite the letdown, really. I only succeeded in tying him up for about five minutes.
