01202818973 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01202818973 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance and potential scammer posing as an energy or government-related firm, repeatedly calling from similar Bournemouth area numbers. Callers often remain silent or hang up when answered, sometimes using automated systems or giving false company names. They pressure recipients about property-related grants, energy surveys, or insulation work, often ignoring Telephone Preference Service registration. Multiple complaints describe frequent daily calls with no messages left, causing frustration and leading many to block the numbers or disconnect landlines. Users caution against engaging, advise against confirming personal details, and warn that these calls may be attempts at fraudulent activity or harassment rather than legitimate business.

Got a call from some local energy firm I’d never heard of - total spam.
5 years
This spam call comes through constantly, getting at me about three or four times in a row, then vanishing only to pop back up a couple of weeks later. Really wish someone would put an end to them soon.

Got another call from someone claiming to be from my energy provider, but it was just another scammer trying their luck.

They keep ringing but never say anything or leave a voicemail, does anyone know who this is?

Just got a random call from some energy firm chatting about government grants, then they started asking stuff about my house, like "press 1 if you own it" or "press 2 if you don’t." Honestly, I just hung up and waited for them to stop ringing. I'm on the TPS list myself. Seen quite a few others moaning about this number too, so why haven’t they shut it down yet?

Cheers for the info, really helpful. I’ve been in touch with this solar firm called Greenleaf based in Bournemouth. Strange thing is, they got my TSP number through some other company that went bust. I’m guessing that’s how they ended up with my details. Either way, I’m not keen on it and feel like they're pestering me. Not interested at all!

Someone called me pretending to work for some government department about loft insulation. Sounded dodgy to me.

They’ve called me 4 times already, but I’ve blocked the number now. When I told them I’m on the TPS, this cheeky bloke said they got my number through the company that handles my solar panel payments. He tried to chat about green energy, but I told him straight up to never call again since I don’t deal with cold callers.

This number has rung me loads of times lately, along with 01202 818951 and 818961. I've got caller ID so I just don’t pick up when they call. After seeing other people’s comments, it’s clear it’s some kind of scam. Even if I don’t answer, it’s still really annoying getting these frequent calls. What’s worse is they’re using three different numbers to try and trick us. Just now, 818951 called me again, I answered but no one spoke and then they just hung up. Proper frustrating!

This phone showed up as coming from abroad, so I just didn’t pick it up. Don’t usually bother with those calls, and there wasn’t even a voicemail or anything left. Pretty dodgy if you ask me!

On the 20th of May, I got ringed up four times, plus a few times the day before too. Didn't answer any of 'em and there's no voicemail left. When I zoomed in on Google Maps to check where the number is supposedly based in Bournemouth, it pointed to a very precise spot. I ended up calling my network provider and they mentioned they'd get in touch with BT's Fraud Team to arrange for an Openreach engineer to come check it out.

Got loads of calls from what seems like a dodgy energy company, proper hassle. They kept ringing even after I asked them to stop. They also tried from different numbers like 01202 818961 and 01202 818951. Felt like pure harassment tbh.

It's not even half ten and I've already had loads of missed calls from that same number again today. I've just had enough and gone ahead and disconnected the landline once more.

This number rang me but I didn’t answer cause I didn’t know who it was. It ended up going to voicemail, but the caller never left a message and just hung up.

Just like the person mentioned earlier, I ended up getting rid of my landline after this number kept ringing non stop for a couple of days. No way I answered and they never left any voicemail either. The calls always start just after 9 in the morning and stop around 5.30 in the evening. When you zoom in on Google maps, the area where the calls seem to be coming from is Bournemouth, which is quite precise. My phone company said they’d reach out to BT’s Fraud team and send an Open Reach engineer to have a look. I’m thinking if more people reported this number, there might be a better chance it gets blocked for good.

I get calls from this number multiple times every day, usually about three times. I answered it twice but didn’t say a word, and both times the caller hung up after a bit. Maybe it’s some sort of voice scanner or something. Definitely feels like a scam and it’s really irritating.

Got three calls today all trying to scam me about energy bills. So annoying!

This number has rung me four times today. The first time I picked up, it was about some government plans and saving energy, which I’ve heard before, so I ended the call pretty quickly. Then, they called me two more times but hung up before I could say anything. Pretty annoying.

Over the past few days, I've had a few calls from this number. Every time I picked up, there was nobody on the line, and usually, it just went to voicemail without any message being left. Bit odd, really.

I got called twice within half an hour with complete silence both times, which was pretty odd. Then, just yesterday, a number nearly the same as this one (01202 818 961) kept ringing me a bunch of times. I’ve added that one to my blacklist and just blocked this new one as well. I wouldn’t be surprised if they come back tomorrow with the same start but different last three digits.

This number keeps ringing me but never leaves a voicemail when I don't pick up. If it was something important, surely they'd leave a message, right? So, I'm guessing it's just some spam or scam. They've been calling me around the same time, like a couple times each day, over the last few days. I don't recognise the number, but it’s got a Poole or Bournemouth area code.

This number rang me twice in under half an hour, but all I got was silence. The day before, a nearly identical number (01202 818 961) kept calling me three times from what sounded like "The insulation advisory line." It wasn't until the third call that someone actually spoke. They claimed my info was on something called the "Renewable Energy Database List." When I asked for details about that database and who manages it, the bloke just ended the call. I've now blocked both numbers, though I have a feeling they might try again tomorrow with a slightly altered last three digits.

I've been getting calls since yesterday, the 19th of May. I've been ignoring them and just letting them go to voicemail. The number (or one almost the same) has phoned me three times yesterday and already twice today. No one's actually left any voicemail though. The call rings long enough to trigger my outgoing message but hang up before leaving any notices, so my red message light doesn’t even come on.

Heads up everyone. I got a call today from 01202818961, after already getting one earlier this morning. When I answered, I didn’t say a word and after a bit of silence, the caller just hung up. I’m adding that number to my block list straight away.

Got calls from this number and one ending with 961 about three times today. Every time, they hung up as soon as my voicemail started. Looks like another number I have to block now. Honestly, I’m thinking about cutting off the landline altogether with all these annoying calls.

Today, I got a couple of calls from 01202818973, one around 3.09pm and another near 4pm. The guy's voice sounded very familiar - possibly the same bloke or maybe some automated message - like the calls I got from 01202818961 back on the 19th and 20th of May, at various times in the morning and midday. Every time, they said they were from some government energy-saving outfit and insisted I should replace my loft insulation due to potential damp issues.

Never start a call by saying your name like "Hi, it's [Your Name] here". They’re probably trying to link your name to your number. Better to keep quiet about who you are straight away.

This number rang me on 20 May 2021. I picked up and just said "Hello," but the person on the other end immediately hung up without saying a word. It wasn’t shocking since I got a call from this same number a few weeks back. When I looked it up, I found out they’re one of those annoying loft insulation scammers who always switch their phone numbers to keep calling. I’ve gone ahead and blocked this one too.

Got a call from a guy with a male voice saying he’s some kind of local energy advisor. He reckoned my loft insulation might be causing mould and damp and said I should get it checked out. Didn’t sound quite right to me and I think it was an automated call because he kept going over the same lines when I didn’t reply the way he wanted.
