01253835948 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01253835948 👆 is reported as a persistent scam number primarily targeting UK landlines, including those registered with the Telephone Preference Service (TPS). Callers, often using recorded or well-spoken female voices, claim to offer discounts or free grants for solar panels or medical alert devices, frequently seeking vulnerable groups such as the elderly. Conversations typically begin with questions like "Can you hear me?" seemingly to record affirmative responses for fraudulent purposes. Many calls end abruptly if unanswered or when voicemail activates, and no genuine messages are left. Users strongly advise against engaging, responding affirmatively, or providing personal information. The number is widely recognised as deceptive, with warnings to block and report it to official authorities to help combat the ongoing nuisance.
Reports on phone number 01253835948
2 yearsWatch out, total scam and really unsafe!2 yearsGot a call from a woman who said her name was Jane. She told me that my house might be eligible for a discount on solar panels. Felt a bit off, not sure if it’s legit or just another sales pitch.Jane2 yearsI answer the phone to these blokes and shout at the top of my lungs, “Who’s ringing the GOLDEN SHOT? It’s Bobby!” They tend to vanish pretty quickly after that. Quite sketchy-best steer clear!Bobby2 yearsDidn’t pick up as the number was unfamiliar. No voicemail or anything left behind. Feels like a total SCAM to me.2 yearsGot a call a bit ago and, daftly, I said yes when they asked if I could hear the person clearly, even though I’ve heard you shouldn’t agree to that. I was waiting for a pretty important call, so I thought it might be that. The lady spoke about solar energy stuff, tried to sell me panels or something. I told her I wasn’t interested. Now I’m a bit worried I might’ve fallen for some kind of trick.2 yearsI got a call on my home phone from this number yesterday, even though I’m on the TPS list. I just ignored it and no voicemail was left. Pretty obvious it’s some sort of scam.TPS2 yearsThe number was unfamiliar, so I chose to ignore it since I thought it was probably a scam. They didn’t even leave a voicemail.2 yearsGot a call from an unknown number but they didnt leave any message. Ive gone ahead and blocked it now.2 yearsI got a call from this number today, 23rd Jan 2024, from a very polite English lady who asked if I could hear her alright - sounds like a typical way they start the chat based on what others have said. She went on to say I was chosen as a good candidate for solar energy, which was odd since I already have solar panels installed. After that she thanked me, wished me a nice day, and then ended the call. We're registered on the TPS, so this unwanted call shouldn't have happened.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsGot a call on our hardly ever used landline from a well-spoken woman saying she was with some "Solar Advisory Service" and offering a free assessment. As soon as I brought up the TPS, she hung up sharpish. Seems dodgy to me, like they’re trying to target older folks with scams about useless roof repairs or something. Definitely marking it as risky.Solar Advisory ServiceTelephone Preference Service2 yearsThe ad wasn’t very clear, so it might be dodgy - seems like a typical scam to me.2 yearsCalled and it went straight to voicemail, didn’t get any message though.2 yearsI got a call from this number on my home phone but couldn’t pick up. Didn’t leave any voicemail, and honestly, I’m quite relieved I didn’t get involved.2 yearsGot a missed call from this number, so now I can just block it. Cheers!2 yearsSo I picked up, but there was nothing at first. Then they asked, “Can you hear me alright?” I just hung up. Feels like one of those dodgy scam calls trying to trick you into saying “yes” so they can use it against you or get into your accounts or something.2 yearsGot a call from a woman who asked if I could hear her, she was pushing some no-cost solar panel offer. Definitely felt like one of those usual scams running around.2 yearsGot a call from this number earlier, a polite woman told me we could get funding for solar panels. Didn’t bother pursuing it though since my home isn’t really fit for them.2 yearsReceived a call attempting an energy scam.2 yearsAs soon as I picked up, the person just hung up straight away before I could say anything. Quite odd!2 yearsDodgy energy scheme or insulation con.2 yearsGot a call from a lady trying to sell energy advice even though we're on the TPS list. Quite annoying!TPS2 yearsJust got a dodgy call, total scam!2 yearsThis number rang me twice today, but both times I picked up and there was just silence, then the call dropped. Sounds like there's nobody actually speaking on the other side.2 yearsI waited on the line for nearly a minute but no one answered, then the call just got cut off.2 yearsGot two calls today, but every time I answered, the caller just hung up. Really don’t get why people ringing either doorbells or phones think folks are just stood around waiting for them. Honestly, it's a waste of both our time!2 yearsThis number has called our Wiltshire company five times over just two days.Wiltshire2 yearsJust got a call and it’s definitely a scam.2 yearsThey might ask if you can hear them alright, probably to get you to say ‘yes’ so they can use your voice for some kind of scam. They say they’re experts in solar power or something like that.2 yearsJust got a call from a woman saying she’s with a solar panel company - crazy, I left a comment about this same thing like 40 minutes ago!2 yearsGot a ring from this number trying to sell us some solar heating deal. My missus humoured them for a bit before saying we already got solar heating installed.2 yearsPicked up the phone, but there was just silence on the other end. Left it for about a minute, then the call was ended. Looks like the TPS list doesn’t mean much here. I’ve blocked the number now.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsOnce more I got this automated lady’s voice asking ‘Hello, can you hear me alright?’. Don’t ever say ‘Yes’ or anything similar, as these cons want to catch you saying ‘Yes’ on tape to fraudulently sign you up for stuff. I just blocked the number straight away.2 yearsWatch out, they’re just trying to trick you into saying YES - total scam alert!2 yearsThis number has rung me three times already today. The first two times, they hung up as soon as my answerphone kicked in. When I finally picked up the third call, a very pushy lady with a posh tone started pushing some kind of solar grant. I told her we weren’t interested but she just kept going on and on, so I had to just hang up on her.2 yearsThis number has called me twice just this week. I didn't pick up, instead letting the answerphone handle it, and whoever was on the line just hung up.2 yearsI picked up the phone and there was silence for roughly 10 seconds before it suddenly disconnected. Sounds like yet another scam attempt, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number.2 yearsCaller just stayed silent the whole time.2 yearsGot a call from a number I didn’t recognise, but the moment my answer machine kicked in, they just hung up. I’ve seen the feedback on here and decided to block it straight away. Even though it’s supposedly a TPS registered number, these lot don’t seem to care at all.TPS2 yearsSeeing the Blackpool area code made me think it might be family as I've got older relatives there. I decided not to pick up and let it ring through to voicemail, hoping they might leave a message, but nothing came through. These scam calls are so irritating. I've already dealt with three spam calls today alone.Blackpool2 yearsThey keep ringing all the time.2 yearsWhen I answered and my voicemail kicked in, they just hung up. Didn't even bother to leave a message.2 yearsThey rang me up yesterday just once, then again twice today already. Every time I answered and my voicemail kicked in, they just ended the call without saying a word. My message goes something like “I’ll answer if I’m around… but only if you say who you are.”2 yearsGot a call from some woman talking about solar power today, asked if I owned the house or not. I just hung up without giving her any details. Another annoying call that I didn't want.3 yearsLately, this number has been blowing up my phone non stop, and they clearly don’t care about the TPS rules. It’s gotta be a scam and totally illegal. Honestly, just hang up or block them, no use arguing with a machine on the other end. These robocalls are what let them ring millions of people at once, and why sometimes the line just cuts out. I’m guessing it’s some dodgy call centre abroad faking the number, but since it’s still going on, best to just block it. It’s shocking that Openreach hasn’t done more to stop this whole ‘spoofed number’ nonsense.TPSOpenreach3 yearsThe TPS list only blocks genuine sales and marketing calls, it doesn't cover other genuine businesses or groups. It definitely doesn’t help when it comes to scammers. If you really want to fight back, you’ve got to report scam calls and info as much as you can, overwhelm the reporting system even, that’s the only way to try and get these scams stopped.Telephone Preference ServiceTPS3 yearsThey just kept jabbering nonstop and rushed through everything, wouldn’t stop no matter what. I ended up yelling and hanging up 'cause they were pushing me to buy something I already own from legit sellers.3 yearsReceived a call from someone identifying themselves as Jane who inquired whether I was over 70. She mentioned something about a Medical Alert button. I chose to end the conversation.Jane3 yearsBelieve it or not, I tried calling but there was absolutely no response. Quite dodgy, if you ask me!3 yearsI'm pretty sure this is only the second time I've gotten a call from this number, and the voice on the line really matches the ones from other warnings I've seen. Definitely made me feel it's a bit dodgy.3 yearsHad a call from this number the other day, but as soon as I picked up the call just dropped. Got curious and looked it up here and, as I thought, it’s probably some sort of scam. Best not to talk to anyone who rings from this number, just be careful.3 yearsUpon inquiring about the source of their information, I was met with silence. They claimed the device wouldn't cost me anything upfront, merely a daily fee of £1.20, which set off all sorts of alarms in my mind. I requested that they send me the details in writing, but all of a sudden, my line went completely silent.3 yearsThey claimed to be giving away a free medical alert system, but I just ended the call straight away.3 yearsJust got yet another scam call, so I've decided to stop picking up when I don't recognise the number.3 yearsGot a call saying I was eligible for a free medical alert. The lady asked me to hold on while she booted up her computer. I said no thanks and ended the call.3 yearsReceived a fraudulent call.3 yearsI got a call claiming to be from a health clinic about giving me a medical alert bracelet. When they suddenly started asking how old I was, I just ended the call.3 yearsGot a call on my landline from an unknown number, didn’t pick up or leave any message. Not sure who it was, so I’m gonna block it.3 yearsGot a call from someone who was obviously trying to scam me.3 yearsThey purport to be situated in Dorset, yet the area code corresponds to Blackpool. They’re attempting to enroll individuals in some sort of telephone medical alert programme, insisting they are medical personnel. My initial conversation was with a lady who requested I hang on for a moment as she "loaded up" her screen, but then I was inexplicably switched over to a gentleman.DorsetBlackpool3 yearsIt went quiet after my elder relative handed it over to me.3 yearsI didn't want to get involved because the deal seemed a bit too good, you know? They said they were after people over 70 or something like that.3 yearsThat definitely seems like one of those automated calls.3 yearsReceived a phone call this morning, 27 November 2023, purporting to be from Medi Alert. The caller had a rather pleasant voice, though I couldn't quite tell if it was a lady or a bloke trying to sound feminine. Definitely felt like a dodgy sales pitch. Be wary!Medi Alert3 yearsMy husband answered a call on our landline earlier, thinking it was someone local from Blackpool. But as soon as he picked up, the person on the other end just hung up. Definitely looks like a scam, so we’ll be avoiding any calls from that number in future.Blackpool3 yearsI had pretty much the same thing happen as others here with that number. Got an automated message from a female voice saying she was from some sort of 'Medical Alert' company. She went on about how their records suggested I might qualify for a free medical alert bracelet or pendant or something like that. She asked if I could hear her too, but it was obvious it was just a recorded scam, so I just hung up straight away.3 yearsI picked up the call but heard absolutely nothing on the other end-just silence before they abruptly disconnected. Quite peculiar, really!3 yearsI received an unsolicited call from a number that definitely shouldn’t have been dialled. The caller was purporting to be from some sort of medical company, insisting that those over the age of 70 could obtain a device to wear-a sort of emergency button, they said. They assured me it wouldn’t cost a penny. I expressed my disinterest, and they promptly ended the conversation. How rather dodgy, I thought.3 yearsA nicely spoken lady called me, very polite at first, but kept pushing this 'free Medic-alert' thing non-stop. I just ended up hanging up. Seems like they’re aiming at older people to try and trick them. Since I’m a carer, I’m pretty wary about where they got my number from - feels like they’re definitely picking who they call, not just ringing randomly.3 yearsThis morning, my phone rang but when I picked up, there was silence and then the call just ended. Feels really dodgy to me, like it could be a scam. Watch out!3 yearsGot a call on my landline from 01253835948 but didn’t pick up since I didn’t know the number. Didn’t get any voicemail either. Feels like it was probably just a scam call!3 yearsIt seems there’s a bit of a worrying trend here, where older folks are being approached with misleading health information. They’re being urged to wear a tag for emergencies in case they happen to stumble or fall. It’s all coming from some sort of automated voice, which is rather concerning. One can't help but wonder if these tactics are putting undue pressure on vulnerable individuals.Submit Your Own Report (01253 835948)
