5 yearsThey just won’t stop ringing me. I stupidly called back and ended up speaking to some call centre. Not impressed!5 yearsGot a missed call on my work phone earlier. If I’d picked up and they started talking about loft insulation or anything like that, I’d bet my bottom dollar it was some kind of scam!5 yearsSick to death of getting those annoying scam calls all the time.5 yearsNobody said a word.5 yearsGot a call but no message left this time. It’s just one of those again, and I’ve been getting about six of these calls every week lately. All of them are scams, no doubt!5 yearsCalled back but there was nothing on the answerphone.5 yearsGot a call from this number yesterday, but they just hung up without saying a word or leaving any message!5 yearsGot a call from 01214001178, and some bloke named Matthew was asking about loft insulation, said I had it done. I was like, ‘Who do you think you're chatting to?’ Then he just hung up on me.Matthew5 yearsThis number was unknown to me so I let it go to voicemail, but they didn’t leave any message.5 yearsWas called by some company saying they’d do insulation work, sounded like a total scam to me.5 yearsGot a ring from some bloke named Chris speaking English, said it was about loft insulation supposedly done through some government scheme. I told him I never had any insulation done through any funding. I mentioned we've insulated ourselves fully. He was quiet for a moment then just said cheers and goodbye. Seems like a scam to me, no question.Chris5 yearsSo, I got a call from 01214001178 earlier today, like 12/07/2021, and they were chatting about mould or something? I just told them nah, not interested, and hung up straight away.5 yearsGot a call from 01214001178 but they left no voicemail. Feels like one of those dodgy scam calls to me.5 yearsGot a call about some government funded lagging I never signed up for. Definitely sounded dodgy to me - pretty sure it was a scam.5 yearsGot a call from someone saying it was about insulation work done on our roof, but we live in a flat - no roof to speak of!5 yearsHad a call from a woman claiming her insulation firm got my phone from some government list about home repairs. Definitely a dodgy scam!5 yearsI got a call from 01214001178, the person on the other end asked if I owned the property, but then the line got all crackly and suddenly went dead. Really weird experience.5 yearsA bloke rang me asking if I was the person who lived in the house. I said yes, and he went on to say his files showed I've never done a loft insulation check since moving in. I told him flat out, "No way am I having that done." Then I ended the call and blocked the number. Definitely a scam.5 yearsThey rang me again today, claiming to be from a local company. Total rubbish. When I questioned why they were phoning an ex-directory number that's on the TPS list, they just hung up on me. Proper irritating!TPS5 yearsGot a call trying to sell me insulation. First thing they wanted to know was if I owned the house. Pretty obvious scam or sales pitch in the making.5 yearsThey didn’t bother to leave any message, so I guess it’s just some annoying spam call.5 yearsNo voicemail or anything, probably just a random cold call.5 yearsMatthew’s been ringing me up about some government insulation they say was put in my place. I’m on council housing and that was done ages back! I’ve told him a few times now to quit calling me.Matthew5 yearsThey claimed to be from the local energy company, but I just ended the call straight away.5 yearsGot a call out the blue from some guy named Matthew who said he needed to chat about my loft insulation. Total nonsense, I never asked for anything like that!Matthew5 yearsLike others have mentioned, I think they’re pushing insulation or something along those lines. What caught my attention - and made me quite suspicious - was when I dialled 1471 and got a robotic voice saying it was a ‘Digital Solution Marketing Company’ doing market research! It even gave me the option to press 1 to be taken off their call list. But how on earth did that message come from 1471? When I tried 1471 again, it just gave the usual recorded announcement. Feels like a clever scam, maybe keeping the line open so if you press 1, you end up on even more marketing lists! I’m definitely reporting this one.Digital Solution Marketing Company5 yearsGot a call from this number but no voicemail or anything, so I doubt it's legit.5 yearsGot a call from someone named "Chris", sounded like a posh British bloke, offering free loft surveys for insulation or something. I wasn’t really paying full attention and just mumbled a bit. Then the convo got all weird and choppy, like an automated thing reacting to what I said. Ended up hanging up and then blocking the number straight away.Chris5 yearsI got a call from a bloke named Chris who said we qualified for a free loft inspection and insulation upgrade. He wanted to know our age bracket and what kind of access we had to the loft. He also asked me to spell out my surname, which I refused. He said his manager would ring back to arrange a survey and wanted to make sure they had my name right. I asked about the company he was with; he said it was the Green Eco Centre in London and that they use something called the Renewable Energy Database to find homes eligible for free insulation work. He mentioned seeing reports about them in the Daily Telegraph and on the BBC. The guy was pretty pushy, so I just hung up in the end. It all sounded a bit dodgy to me. From what I know, the Renewable Energy Database is a government thing but doesn’t specifically cover loft insulation. I asked if I could call back on his number to check, but he said no. I managed to get the number through 1471 but haven’t bothered to ring it yet.ChrisGreen Eco CentreLondonDaily TelegraphBBC5 yearsI've been getting loads of calls from some bloke called Matthew claiming he installed loft insulation for me with a grant, which isn't true at all. I've told him twice now to take my number off his list, but the calls keep coming. I'm not sure how to make it stop, to be honest.Matthew5 yearsIf your phone has TrueCall, just pop his number onto the block list. That annoying bloke will soon learn his lesson.TrueCall5 yearsLooks like Matthew's at it once more, spouting government scheme rubbish just like the lot we’ve got in charge now. Could be legit, but I’m not taking any chances - I’ve put them on the TPS again.MatthewTPS5 yearsGot a call from Matthew, but this time it was a different number. He kept chatting about insulation again. I told him to cut it out and said Chris doesn't want any calls either. Proper annoying! 😠😠MatthewChris5 yearsGot two calls earlier today from someone called "Matthew", who said he was ringing back regarding government-funded loft insulation.
