I got rung twice in the same day. The first call cut off right after I picked up, like their system ended it automatically. The other sounded like it came from a call centre - you could hear loads of noise and people chatting behind the line, but when I tried to say something, noone replied. After about a minute, the call just ended.

I got a call from a really polite young woman claiming she worked for Green Homes. She said they had me down as someone with spray foam in my loft. I explained I didn’t have any, and she suggested maybe I’d been put on the wrong list but didn’t say what other lists she meant. I then mentioned I’ve been on the TPS for over 30 years, so they shouldn’t have me listed at all. She said sorry and ended the call. Not entirely sure if it was a dodgy call or just a genuine mistake.

I got a call from a really polite young woman claiming she was the local conservation officer. She kept going on about insulation - what worked and what didn’t - and then suggested I needed a survey done. Absolutely no chance! I’m not letting random callers into my home, especially if they’re pushing stuff or maybe even scoping the place out. Watch out for these types!

I had a call from this number earlier today. There was a voicemail left saying, "Hey, it's me," but that was all. It somewhat resembled our daughter's voice, but there's absolutely no chance she'd be ringing from a Chelmsford number. I've opted to disregard it for now.

Got a call from a bloke named Michael with a posh English accent claiming to be an energy advisor for my correct postcode area. He asked if I was still the owner of the house. Oddly, he already knew my name, the title, and the name of my property but said it was just a courtesy call. Wouldn't say the reason for the call until I confirmed I owned the house. I didn’t want to say anything ‘cos it felt like an insulation scam to me, and then he just hung up. Tried to block the number but BT Call Protect said it didn’t recognise it.

Got a call about loft insulation that’s supposedly dangerous for my health. The people calling were super pushy, saying the surveyors were nearby and could only pop round the next day. They didn’t even ask if that timing suited me, just set it in stone. No idea how they get those details. But once I pushed back a bit, they backed off. Seems like they only stick around if you let them run the show.

I got a call from a number I didn’t recognise withholden, so I picked up. Just as my answering machine started, they cut off. A couple of days back, a young woman rang me about loft insulation.

I got a call from someone claiming to be with the local conservation department. They started off by using my full name and even my address which freaked me out a bit.

Kinda makes me wonder what other info they might have on me... really unsettling!
