01245950979 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01245950979 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance linked to a Chelmsford-based company offering dubious home improvement vouchers, often targeting the elderly or homeowners. Calls are unsolicited, sometimes aggressive, with no messages left on answering machines. Many suspect scams involving roof cleaning, solar panels, and insulation, despite claims of legitimacy. The callers often use multiple numbers with a similar pattern, and despite being on the Telephone Preference Service, recipients continue to receive calls. Background noise typical of call centres is common, and operators sometimes abruptly hang up when questioned. Users strongly advise blocking the number and reporting it to authorities, noting frustration with telecom providers for allowing these calls to persist unchecked. Exercise caution and avoid engaging with this number.
Reports on phone number 01245950979
1 yearI got a call that started with "Hi Mr (correct name), just a quick check-in. How's your day going?" I replied, "Well, if it’s that quick, then goodbye!" It’s clear BT must be aware these types of calls are dodgy, yet they don’t seem bothered to block them since they profit somehow. If I was caught out by one of these scams, I’d seriously consider taking legal action against BT for letting these crooks get on with it.BT1 yearI ended the call because the person on the other end just stayed silent.1 yearHonestly, these phone companies really should have the power to block these calls completely. I got two calls today from separate numbers, and when I got to the answering machine, no messages were left since the numbers were unfamiliar. So annoying.1 yearMy mum's phone kept ringing, so I told her to just ignore it. I've since blocked and wiped the number from her phone.1 yearPretty much what others mentioned. Got a call from Vita Homes about some vouchers for different services. I wouldn’t call it a full-on scam, but it definitely feels sketchy since they’re pushing you to take on work you probably don’t need or want.Vita Homes2 yearsVita Homes are proper annoying, keep calling back straight after I've blocked one of their numbers but from a different 01245 950 979, 01245 950 959 or 01245 950 965. I've reported them to the ICO and TPS now, wish more people would do the same to stop this nonsense.Vita HomesICOTPS2 yearsI had a gut feeling this phone call was a bit shady since we don't have any connection with them. Cheers for clearing that up. I guess they managed to take us off the solar panel mailing list. What’s worrying is that this seems to be a genuine business based in Chelmsford, ringing people unexpectedly even if they’re signed up with the TPS. Not a good look at all.Chelmsford2 yearsGot a call from a woman who somehow already knew my name. She said she was from a company in Essex giving out vouchers to folks around Bedfordshire. I just let her keep talking while I put the phone down, then hung up after a while. Definitely seemed like a scam.EssexBedfordshire2 yearsGot a call from some bloke claiming I could get vouchers for jobs like painting the outside of my place, gutter cleaning, loft insulation and some other stuff I couldn’t quite make out. Told him I wasn’t interested and don’t need any of that done, then he just ended the call. Honestly, I don’t get why they keep pestering people with these scams. Why can’t they just find a proper job instead? Really tiresome.2 yearsDefinitely one of those dodgy sales calls trying to push stuff you don't need.2 yearsGot a call from a number I didn’t recognise so I didn’t pick up. They didn’t leave any voicemail either. After looking it up here, looks like it was probably a scam.2 yearsThey rang about loads of stuff like roof cleaning, gutters, solar panels and more, all in one go - felt a bit overwhelming. I'm on the TPS register but as soon as I mentioned I wasn’t interested, the bloke just hung up on me. I’m retired, so I reckon they might be targeting people like me. The number showed up as Chelmsford.TPSChelmsford2 yearsAnswered the call but no one spoke, then they just put the phone down.2 yearsI got a call with loads of background noise like from some call centre, then it just dropped. Definitely a scam trying to get through.2 yearsGot a call but no voicemail was left, so I’m guessing it’s one of those scam calls, best to ignore.2 yearsGot a call from 01245950979 on my landline, didn’t know the number so I looked it up. Turns out it’s linked to some solar panel scam, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked it and reported it.2 yearsGot calls from this number a few times today, kept saying they were fixing things nearby. After the third call, I just told them off and ended the call.2 yearsbeen getting calls from this number a few times over the past couple days but they never leave a voicemail.2 yearsMy dad got a call about cleaning his solar panels. Seems dodgy to me because he’s in a council flat and shouldn’t even have any. Definitely looks like a scam.2 yearsGot another call from Vita Homes in Chelmsford again, the same old spiel about confirming my name and then trying to sell me vouchers for home improvements. Honestly, I find it kinda funny hearing all their deals before I have to tell them to buzz off. I’m thinking of reporting them soon, they’re so persistent!Vita HomesChelmsford2 yearsI got a call from a young bloke, sounded male, saying he was calling about an order supposedly placed on my phone. I told him I hadn't ordered anything and asked what it was about. Without saying a word more, he just ended the call straight away.2 yearsGot a call from a woman claiming they’d done some work around my neighbourhood and were giving out vouchers. The moment she mentioned vouchers, I just ended the call right away. You could hear loads of noise in the background, like a bunch of others chatting on the phone. Definitely felt like a scam to me!2 yearsThis bloke with a proper English accent called and said his name, asking for me by name. I wasn’t quite catching what he said at first, so I asked him to say it again. He mentioned something about 'ITA' but I didn’t get that part clearly. Told him I had no clue who he was and asked him to say it once more. Next thing, he just ended the call. Guess he was in a rush or something!ITA2 yearsThere was a lot of background noise, like an office with other phones ringing. I stayed quiet, and they seemed to hang up, but I have a feeling they might’ve been monitoring if I picked up my phone. I didn’t use it though, and eventually they actually ended the call for real.2 yearsIt's so annoying how they keep ringing up with those scam calls, pretending there's work I never asked for just to get cash out of you. Proper nasty tactic.2 yearsTotal scammers, don’t trust them at all!2 yearsI got a call from this number yesterday but no one said anything when I answered. After reading the comments here, I felt like I didn’t need to worry. Cheers to all who shared! 🌷2 yearsI keep getting calls from various numbers that all seem linked to a company based in Chelmsford called Vita Home Improvements Ltd. They install things like solar panels and insulation for homes. Their contact numbers usually begin with '012459509', but the final two digits differ. They’re pretty relentless, often phoning repeatedly from different numbers. They’ve also got a website you can check out.ChelmsfordVita Home Improvements Ltd2 yearsI got a call from a lady who started listing 5 possible home options for me. Then she asked if I was between 65 and 85 years old, but when I said I'm 91, she just ended the call. I've blocked her number since then.2 yearsGot a call earlier but didn’t pick up, and they didn’t bother leaving a voicemail or anything.2 yearsAh, the quietude of Chelmsford! I can only imagine that they’re peddling those vouchers for sprucing up one’s abode yet again.Chelmsford2 yearsEven after telling them I was feeling unwell and pointing out that we’re on the TPS list, the caller just kept going. She said she was doing me a favour by offering some vouchers for roof cleaning or something like that. Quite annoying really.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsI was tied up when they rang, so it went straight to voicemail but nothing was recorded. Checked out your website and read what others said. I’ve decided to block the number now.2 yearsThere was no voicemail so it’s clearly a scam, real companies usually want you to ring them back.2 yearsPhoned them back and when I picked up I could hear some music playing and sounds like an office busy in the background. I tried speaking but no one responded, and then they just ended the call. I’m signed up with the TPS, but honestly, that doesn’t seem to stop these calls at all!Telephone Preference Service2 yearsSome idiot called up trying to pitch a moss removal service for our brand new roof... totally pointless!3 yearsBeen getting calls from this number for ages - at least two years now! Can’t believe it hasn’t been shut down yet, must be some kind of scam or something.3 yearsGot a spam call earlier, I've gone and blocked the number now.3 yearsI wasn’t home at the time, but it’s a right hassle having to check the caller when I get back, just to see if it might’ve been an important call.3 yearsGot a call from David at Vita Homes asking if I own a house and if I’m retired, trying to pitch some kind of “voucher” to me... honestly, I’m proper sick of these calls.DavidVita Homes3 yearsGot a call around midday but they didn’t leave any voicemail. I’m just gonna block the number.3 yearsJust got a cold call about some lead generation scheme, offering vouchers for solar panels, roof fixes, and some grants too. Told them I wasn’t interested and ended the call pretty quick.3 yearsThe number popped up showing it was a recorded call, so I picked up but there was no message after the beep. Figured it was probably a scam, so I've gone ahead and blocked it now.3 yearsI keep getting calls from this nuisance, and let me tell you, they are most discourteous when you confront them!3 yearsGot a call from Cita Home Improvements saying they wanted to send me some vouchers. Not sure if it’s a genuine offer or just some dodgy marketing tactic.Cita Home Improvements3 yearsThere was silence on the other end, just some faint background sounds for a bit before the call got disconnected.3 yearsGot a call where they told me to leave a message, seemed like a scam to me. In the end, I chose not to leave anything.4 yearsThis number keeps going straight to my BT answerphone, but they never bother leaving a message. I've officially blocked it now, fed up with the silence.4 yearsSome dodgy international caller was on the line, asking for my bank info. Total scam, watch out!4 yearsWas on the phone and all I could hear was a really loud call centre noise in the background, but they just ended the call without saying anything. Went ahead and blocked the number.4 yearsThis number, 01245950979, has rung me up a few times saying I could get vouchers for stuff like insulation or brickwork repointing. I’m a bit unsure if it’s linked to that E.on government scheme I’m waiting on - they’re meant to do a home energy survey for me soon. Honestly, it’s a bit confusing why they keep calling and I can’t help feeling a bit wary about who they really are. I told them I was busy so I could look them up here before speaking again, and they said they’d ring back tomorrow. If anyone’s got any info about this, please share it here.E4 yearsSomeone rang me and used my name, but when I asked who was on the line, the call just got cut off.4 yearsThis number 01245950979 kept ringing me up three times within just a few hours but never left any sort of voicemail or message. Quite odd.4 yearsGot a call I never got to answer because BT Call Guardian picked it up. No voicemail was left either.BT Call Guardian4 yearsReceived a call claiming to provide complimentary vouchers, but we firmly resisted any temptation to share our personal details. It feels like a right dodgy scam to me!4 yearsPicked up a call showing Chelmsford, but there was just silence on the other end. Quite odd!ChelmsfordSubmit Your Own Report (01245 950979)
