3 yearsJust ignored and then blocked the number, didn't wanna deal with it.5 yearsThe number showed up with my area code, so I picked up, but there was just silence. I immediately went to check ‘who called me’ and I’m really glad I did. Now I’ll be blocking that number for sure.5 yearsWe keep getting calls because our local area code matches theirs. When the bloke spoke to my dad and thought he was the homeowner, my dad cut him off and said it’s actually the council’s property, then he just ended the call! This isn’t the first time this number or an old one got calls like this.5 yearsThis is the second call I’ve gotten from this number, both times I picked up since the area code looked familiar. The bloke claimed to be a ‘local energy advisor’ and insisted he knew I owned the property! Each time, I replied with something along the lines of, “If you really know me, what’s my name then?” Followed by telling him he was trying to scam me and he should leave me alone. Well, not in those exact words, but you get the idea!5 yearsI picked up the phone since the number looked local, being from the 01268 code. The caller claimed they were ringing from a nearby home energy company. But the moment I asked what the call was about, they just ended the call. The voice had a British accent, which is unusual compared to the usual scam calls I get. Just a heads up to be cautious.5 yearsI got a call from this number, it looked like a Basildon one so I picked up thinking it was someone I was waiting for. The person asked for me and then if I was the house owner. I said yeah, then he started talking about loft insulation. I told him to hold on, I’m actually renting the place, not the owner. He said sorry and ended the call.Basildon5 yearsJust had a ring from 01268389017 claiming to be from an energy company. Told him I wasn't interested in any cold calls today. He said 'ok' at first but then asked me to repeat it, so I just ended the call straight away. This was about 3:15 in the afternoon.5 yearsA bloke called claiming to be from an energy firm, mentioned he knew I owned my place and asked how I was doing. I just ended the call straight away.5 yearsOn the 17th of May 2021 at about 3.06pm, I got a call from a bloke claiming to be from an electricity company. He somehow said he knew I was the homeowner or whoever lives here. When I asked him to name me, he suddenly said sorry and hung up, but kept the line dead for a few mins, and when I finally got to speak, I told him to piss off. This 01268-389017 number is from the Basildon area, and it’s definitely just one of those unsolicited marketing calls. You really want to avoid answering it - it’s probably a phishing attempt that could lead to big fraud issues down the line. I've reported the number to both the police and Ofcom, as these people are breaking the law and they will eventually be caught and dealt with properly.BasildonPoliceOfcom5 yearsGot a couple of calls over the last two days from what seemed like the same bloke, all about cavity wall insulation.
