Got a missed call this morning, no voicemail left though. Didn’t know the number so I’m guessing it was just another scam trying to bother me. Quite irritating really.

Got a call from someone saying he was James, the energy advisor round here. Funny thing is, yesterday a bloke on a different phone said his name was Jo and claimed the same job. I just ended the call straight away.

I keep getting calls from some local energy guy called James, but it’s just a recorded message every time. They’re always trying to push stuff like solar panels or insulation for walls and lofts. Really fed up with it now. Thought the Government and the Telephone Preference Service were meant to put an end to this kind of nuisance calls, but obviously not.

Picked up the phone and all I get is "Hello, can you hear me?" before it went dead silent. Happens quite often with this number and it's pretty irritating. I've decided to just block it.

I got a call about some government grant for insulation. When I asked them how they had my contact details, they said it was from some 'National Database'. Funny thing is, they didn't even check if I owned a house or not. Felt a bit dodgy to me.

Someone kept rambling on about some government stuff, but it was all really hard to follow because their English was terrible. No clue what they were trying to say. Just ended up blocking the number.
