Even though I'm on the Telephone Preference Service (which is as effective as a soggy biscuit), I'm still bombarded with these pesky cold calls. In a bid to put a stop to it, I attempted to call the number back, but it turns out the line is non-existent. Now, I’m gearing up to track down their email address and find out who the Managing Director or CEO is, as I’m weighing up the option of taking legal action under the latest telecommunications laws.

Recently, I've been getting loads of calls about my solar panels. When I asked the bloke where they’d got my info from (we’re ex-directory), he said his firm had bought the phone number details. Still, I’ve got no idea who actually sold my info to them originally. It’s a bit frustrating!

They identified themselves as "Essex Renewables," but I have my doubts. They go by various names, which raises some red flags. They attempted to market this "Eco Power Saver" to me.

At around 5.29 this afternoon, this number gave me a ring. Since someone had already called me about my solar panels yesterday, I just answered without saying a word. The bloke said 'hello' a couple of times, but I just kept quiet. After a few tries he hung up. Sorted!

No idea who that was. I'm on the TPS list and all, but they rang and asked if it was me. I replied, "possibly," then asked who they were, and then they just ended the call!

About the earlier comment, I’ve gone ahead and flagged this number with the ICO because they handle the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations from 2003. I’d really suggest everyone else do the same and report it to both the ICO and the TPS. Cheers!

This number kept ringing me loads of times, and since it’s an 01 landline, I decided to call back. All I got was a looped message saying “your call is important to us please stay on the line” over and over. After about 10 mins, I gave up and hung up, only to get a call back straight away from a mobile number that seemed to be the same type of dodgy call (I looked up the number). Honestly, I’m fed up with these p****** and it’s crazy how they’re still able to get away with it nowadays.

I reckon this call centre might be in the same place as Greentec over in Colchester. The person running customer care is someone called Richard. There was also this lady called Lucy who called me before. I told them to quit ringing me, but they just carried on like I never said anything.

Had a call earlier on from someone saying they were from MRS. I told them I couldn’t talk right now and suddenly they started shouting right into the phone and then just hung up. I tried ringing them back to give them a piece of my mind but after I shouted at them, they put me on hold and never answered. Don’t know what their game is but their manners are shockingly bad. Honestly, not impressed one bit. Wouldn’t mind if they called again, then I might have to give them a taste of their own medicine!

This isn't the first instance we've received a random call from this number. They seemed to be aware that we had solar panels, which was rather concerning, and inquired about the quantity we possessed. When I asked, "Might I know the name of your company?" she abruptly hung up.

This number keeps ringing me every week with calls about solar panels, heat pumps, battery storage, or something linked to NGR. I've told them loads of times to take me off their list since I don't want these calls, but they just don't listen. It’s really frustrating.

Got a couple of calls today from this number, they said they were from NGR or something. The person on the phone was really pushy and didn’t speak clearly at all. They kept trying to set up a home visit with one of their “advisers” like it was some kind of hard sell. Proper annoying.

I told the person on the phone that I’m on the TPS and asked them to remove my number from their list. Usually, callers are polite, say sorry, and then hang up. But this one was different - they said something like “that’s just for cold calls.” I explained that they were making a cold call, then I ended the call. Right after, the phone rang again from the exact same number. I just ignored it.

I've been receiving some rather chilly calls lately, and it's clear that the callers are determined to pull the wool over my eyes. They spin yarns that are nothing but fabrications, and when I pressed them to reveal how they obtained my number, they turned quite hostile. It’s a pure scam - approach with caution! Feeling rather exasperated!

I received a rather unpleasant phone call from a call centre representative claiming to represent MGR Assessments, insisting that I had solar panels installed. Naturally, I was reluctant to divulge any personal details without verifying her identity and the purpose of the call, which I thought was a perfectly sensible security measure. Her attitude, however, took a rather nasty turn. I remarked, "Considering you're contacting someone you don't know, the least you could do is apologise for the disruption and check if I have a moment to chat." To which she retorted, "Oh, I’m terribly sorry, King {MY_SURNAME}, did I not bow sufficiently for you?" I replied, "I’m registered with the Telephone Preference Service, therefore you shouldn't be calling me at all." She shot back, "This isn't a sales call, so TPS doesn't apply here." After a brief pause, I said, "Regardless, you're still interrupting my day." Her response was quite audacious: "Ah, there was a hesitation! Couldn't quite figure out how to handle that, could you? Well, do yourself a favour and sod off." (Then she promptly hung up.)

So this bloke rang me up, real polite, claiming he fits a gadget to your inverter that bumps up its output by 30%. He reckoned it would make the inverter last four times longer too. Said it’d cost less than £50001, which struck me as odd. I did a quick sum in my head and figured it’d take nearly 27 years of FIT payments just to cover it. He asked if he could send someone over to install it, but I just said no thanks straight away.

Over the past two days, I've gotten several calls, mostly from numbers like 07468474287, 07468474286, or 01792735986. From what I've read on this site and others, they tend to pitch ‘solar panel inspections’ or claim to help you ‘increase your solar panel efficiency’. Since Monday morning (25/07/16), 9 out of the 13 calls I received were from these kinds of numbers. None of them has left a voicemail or even replied when I accidentally answered.

So these people called me and I decided to give their offer a shot. Honestly, they’ve been really good to me and I’m already noticing the improvements. You might have a background with NASA or whatever, but if you haven’t tried their stuff, how do you know it doesn’t work? I’ve used it, and trust me, it actually does what it promises. Big props to the team, they’re doing a smashing job!

Some company called saying they could boost my solar panel efficiency by like 30%. They’re supposed to show up at my place tomorrow around 4pm. I’ll give them a chance, but honestly, like others have said, it sounds a bit dodgy to me. Probably just a scam.

In the span of just one day, I received two calls from this particular number. On the first occasion, I politely informed the caller that I wasn't interested. Then, on the second call, I mentioned that I had already spoken to someone the day before. They responded by claiming it wasn't noted in their records. I reiterated the same spiel I had received the previous day, and to my surprise, the woman on the line abruptly hung up. I strongly advise against picking up if you see this number calling!

I recently received a rather dubious call from this number, claiming they had a brilliant gizmo that could supposedly enhance the efficiency of my solar panels by a staggering 25%. Now, considering that such a feat would defy the principles of the Photoelectric Effect, as established by Einstein back in 1905 - a contribution for which he bagged the Nobel Prize - I found it rather hard to take their claims seriously. As someone with a background in NASA and having penned a book on Solar Energy Production for satellites, I was met with dismissive attitudes when I pointed this out. It’s clear that this call centre is nothing but a hub for deception. Do yourself a favour and steer clear of their nonsense. I've taken the step of reporting them to trading standards. Signed, a concerned physicist.

I recently received a rather dubious call from this number, claiming they had a device that could boost the efficiency of my solar panels by 25% without any modifications. Now, I'd like to remind them that such an assertion violates the fundamental principles laid out by Einstein in his 1905 work on the Photoelectric Effect-a groundbreaking theory for which he was awarded the Nobel Prize. My background includes working with NASA and authoring a book on solar energy, so I’m not exactly unversed in the subject. When I attempted to explain this to them, they resorted to raised voices and insisted I was mistaken. It appears this call centre is brimming with scams. I wouldn’t trust a thing they say. I’ve also reported their antics to Trading Standards. Best, a Physicist.

I’ve had loads of calls from this number, claiming they’ve got a device that can boost my solar panels’ output by 25%. Told them it’s impossible without swapping or adding more panels, since that would bend the rules of the photoelectric effect, which Einstein nailed back in 1905 - he even bagged the Nobel for it. They just brushed me off, saying I didn’t understand what I was saying. Honestly, this call centre feels like one big scam. I wouldn’t trust a single thing they say. Already reported them to trading standards. From someone who knows a bit about physics.

I keep getting calls from this number, trying to persuade me that they've got some device that can boost my solar panel's output by a whopping 25%. Now, considering they’re claiming this can be achieved without modifying the existing panels or increasing their size, they’re obviously ignoring the fundamental principles of the Photoelectric Effect, as established by Einstein in 1905 - the very work that earned him a Nobel Prize. Having spent time working with NASA and penning a book on solar energy, I can confidently say their claims are utterly nonsensical. When I challenged them, they just brushed me off as if I was clueless. It’s clear this call centre is nothing but a haven for scammers. I wouldn't trust a single thing they say. I've even contacted Trading Standards about this! Regards from a Physicist.
