01202818930 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01202818930 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance number linked to energy and loft insulation scams across the UK, particularly originating from a Bournemouth area code. Callers often claim to be government-affiliated energy advisors offering free inspections for loft condensation or insulation issues, but they rarely provide verifiable details and frequently hang up when questioned. Many recipients note receiving silent calls or being disconnected upon answering. Despite objections and registrations with the Telephone Preference Service, calls continue, displaying scripted and automated behaviours aimed at eliciting information or appointments. The consensus warns strongly against answering or engaging, advising immediate blocking to avoid potential fraud or harassment from this source.

I received a rather suspicious call from someone claiming to represent the government, stating they were reaching out about ensuring my loft insulation was up to scratch due to some alleged damp and condensation issues. They offered a complimentary inspection, assuring me that someone else would ring back shortly to arrange a visit. They mentioned they were operating out of Reading but were rather evasive about their identity when I inquired. Instead of answering, they just kept firing off more questions, which I found quite off-putting, so I ended the conversation. I'm really puzzled, though-how on earth did they obtain my landline number? I thought my BT number was ex-directory!

Got a call today from a polite young guy who’d also rung me up the day before. He opened with asking if I was the owner of the house, saying he was an energy advisor working locally. He mentioned something about a government scheme for installing fibreglass loft insulation, which I’ve already done in the last few years - I told him that’s not the case. After that, he just hung up; reckon he remembered our chat from yesterday when I explained I’d done the insulation myself. This time his call was about offering a free check for condensation and so on.

I got this really clever scam call the other day. It was some bloke with a London accent, but it sounded like he was using one of those soundboards, just reading from a script. When he asked for my 'postcode area', I wasn’t sure what he meant, so I asked him to explain. Instead of clarifying, he just repeated the same phrase right back at me, word for word. Definitely a scam, no doubt about it.

01202818930 called me, claiming to be from nearby, but I live about 70 miles away. The person said they were an advisor about energy and insulation and asked if I owned the house. I just said yes. Then they asked if I'd sought help from the local council for loft insulation. I answered 'doesn't matter', and then they hung up straight away. We do have rooms up in the roof and insulated them when we did the roof, but I guess their system ends the call if the answers aren’t what they expect. Felt very automated.

He wanted to know if mine had been inspected in the past three years. I said cheers for the heads up and that I’d look into it before doing anything.

At first it was just silence on the other end despite me saying hello a few times. Then a voice came through claiming to be from "Energy Advisers" - seemed like a total scam.

FRAUD ALERT What a right cheeky trick! It’s a pre-recorded message that tries to mimic a chat with you. They operate on the assumption that you’ll answer their questions and then follow up with another. If you don’t chime in, they’ll thank you for your 'input' and carry on with yet another query. The whole aim seems to be capturing your replies and sifting through them later to see if you're daft enough to merit a real phone call.

My landline rang and the person asked if I was the homeowner. I said, "That's funny, how do you know that?" and they just hung up straight away. Well, there's one way to get off the phone quick! I really can’t stand getting calls at teatime.

No voicemail or anything, seems like it could be a scam call.

Keeps ringing me from 01202 818?? with various last digits, always different. I just ignore them 'cause heard loads of people say it's dodgy stuff from this area code. If I do let it go to voicemail, it just hangs up anyway. Definitely blocked now.

Got a call about loft insulation and all that, and I just cut him off real quick within 10 seconds before he could say more. Then he hung up.

I got a call from 01202818930, some bloke claiming to be an energy rep from Reading, but I'm all the way down in South Wales! When I asked who he was, he just said "have a nice day" and hung up straight away. Really odd!

I got a call from this number and when I picked up, no one said anything, just silent. I've had this happen a few times now, so I just ended the call.

I tried ringing them back but just got a voicemail saying it was for some kind of market survey. They didn't leave any actual message though.

Some bloke claiming to be an energy advisor just wouldn’t let me get a word in. He jumped right into selling without even asking, so I ended the call and blocked the number straight away!

Got a call from this number twice today, first at about 11am and then again just before 5. I picked up each time and kept saying "Hello?" but nobody spoke before they just ended the call. Quite odd really.

For the past couple of days, I keep getting calls where I answer and suddenly the line just drops. It's been happening non-stop.
