7 monthsIt was some ridiculous time early in the morning when the phone rang. Luckily, my phone flagged it as a possible scam, so I just ignored it.3 yearsThey called saying they were doing a survey for Cheltenham Borough Homes, but as soon as they started asking for my personal details I asked them to confirm my address. The moment I did that, they just ended the call.Cheltenham3 yearsI didn’t pick up and they didn’t leave any message.4 yearsReceived a pre-recorded message about loft insulation, which seems rather dodgy. Chances are it’s a scam.4 yearsWhat a relentless chap! This "Dan" was all about those government grant schemes for cavity wall insulation. He claimed he was checking if I was eligible for such funding. I can’t stress enough-stay clear of this fellow! He seemed more keen on pulling a fast one than actually helping!5 yearsI picked up the phone but the caller just dropped the call right away.5 yearsI picked up and said hi, but there was silence on the other end before they just ended the call. Probably some telemarketer or another nuisance call.5 yearsMy answering machine picked this up but there was no voicemail left. Because the area code matched mine, I thought it might be someone I know but I didn't recognise the number. I phoned back using a different phone and got a recorded message from "digital research" saying it was a survey and they'd call me again later. No chance of that now though, as I've blocked the number.5 yearsI didn’t pick up since the number was unfamiliar. They didn’t bother leaving a voicemail, so I’m thinking it was probably a scam.5 yearsGot a call from someone named Dan claiming to be from a government list about cavity wall insulation. I asked him to tell me my address, and he just ended the call straight away.Dan5 yearsJust like others have said, I got a call from some guy named “Dan”. He went on and on about some government database and told me my house had issues with damp. When I asked him to tell me my address, he just ended the call.Dan5 yearsMy landline just buzzed, and like always, I didn’t pick up since we never share our number and it’s on the TPS list. Used 1471 and it showed this number. How on earth do these scammers get hold of phone numbers? It’s really frustrating!Telephone Preference Service5 yearsSo this guy Dan rang me up again, sounding like he had his lines down perfectly. When I asked him to explain a bit about the “survey company” he claimed to be from, he just cut me off and ended the call.Dan5 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Virgin Media security, saying my internet was about to get disconnected because of some dodgy activity on my connection.Virgin Media5 yearsI answered the call with a quick hello, but nobody responded, so I just ended the call.5 yearsI answered the phone with a quick "hello," but no one replied, so I just ended the call.5 yearsI kind of nervously answered the phone and as soon as I said hello, the call just dropped. So, I went ahead and blocked that number straight away.5 yearsGot a call from someone named Dan about some government grant for cavity wall insulation. Sounds like complete rubbish to me.Dan5 yearsI wasn’t interested when some guy rang up about home insulation, so I just hung up straight away. He tried ringing me again, first on the 1st of June and then gave me another call on the 7th. Really didn’t want them ringing me like that.5 yearsgot a call from someone saying they were from cheltenham but it was totally fake, just a dodgy scam trying to trick me.Cheltenham5 yearsSame here!5 yearsThis bloke named Dan kept ringing up about some insulation deal. Pretty sure it was a scam about insulation stuff.Dan5 yearsHe obviously assumed I'd asked for info and just started his spiel straight away. When he then wanted me to spell out my last name, I had to laugh...not falling for that one, Dan.Dan5 yearsKeep getting calls off Dan about some Government insulation thing. I've never signed up or shown any interest in that scheme. Feels dodgy to me, like it might be a scam.Dan5 yearsSo this guy called me saying his name was Dan, and that he was returning my call about cavity wall insulation. Thing is, I never actually contacted anyone about that or got it done. After I told him that, he just ended the call right away.Dan5 yearsSome bloke called me about checking my cavity wall insulation, but he didn’t even know where I lived. Total rubbish clearly just trying to scam me.Dan5 yearsAt around 4:30 pm on 7th June 2021, this number called my home phone. There was silence when I answered, then a click, and the call ended. Looks like one of those automated robocalls trying to get someone to pick up. Big thanks to everyone who flagged this as probably being linked to a home insulation scam. They obviously couldn’t care less about being on the TPS list either.5 yearsCheers for posting this here. I'm from the 01242 area and had a call from this number that just ended the call straight away. Honestly, I never imagined someone would use my area code for a scam, so it’s good to be warned now!5 yearsI knew who was calling as I’ve had a few calls from that voice tied to another scam, which was even mentioned in Bracknell News. https://www.bracknellnews.co.uk/news/18692791.bracknell-forest-residents-continue-targeted-fake-loft-insulation/Bracknell NewsSubmit Your Own Report (01242 591013)
