9 yearsWhen I asked where they were calling from, they said the closest city to me. I called her out and said, nah, you’re ringing from Basildon. They didn’t have any info about our setup and got really defensive when I called them out, accusing me of treating her like a criminal. She kept talking over me non-stop, but as soon as she realised I’d caught them out they just hung up. Since they lied and used fake info to try and get into my house, I’d say they’re definitely scammers.Basildon9 yearsGot a call yesterday from someone who already knew my name and even that I’ve got solar panels installed - how on earth did they find that out? I told them I was tired of these kinds of calls and then just ended the call. Later realised I should’ve mentioned I’m on the TPS but it totally slipped my mind!Telephone Preference Service9 yearsHad a call from some lot about our solar panels supposedly needing a checkup or something. Seemed a bit off, like they were trying to pitch a service we didn’t really need. Felt like one of those pushy sales calls to get us to pay for unnecessary work. Pretty sure I’ll just ignore it next time.9 yearsToday I got a really polite lass on the phone who gave me their company name and number after I asked twice. They’re called Solar Therm and from Basildon. I had a look at their website and they seem legit enough. But I never buy from firms that cold call me on my number, which is on the TPS list, so they’re wasting their time. I’m going to report them to the TPS now and hope they give them a good telling-off!Solar ThermBasildonTelephone Preference ServiceTPS9 yearsSome people called me offering a deal for my solar panels, but honestly, it was a total waste of time. When I politely said I wasn’t interested, they got pretty rude! I’d just recommend blocking the number and moving on. Also, heads up - if you don’t answer, they might start calling from a ‘private number’ to try and get through. So watch out for that!9 yearsSomeone rang and asked if they were speaking to Mr ...? I just said, “Who’s this?” then the call suddenly dropped.9 yearsThey keep ringin me mostly in the morning, like between 8 and 10, but sometimes later in the afternoon too. Never drops a message either.9 yearsI’ve been getting calls from this same number over and over and have no clue who it is or what they want. It’s really starting to get on my nerves! I’m seriously thinking of reporting it to the cops so they can deal with it. Proper pain in the neck!9 yearsI got a call and when I picked up, no one said anything. There was this weird noise in the background and I could hear myself saying “hello” a few times, like an echo. Really odd experience!9 yearsGot a call from this number on two days running. Picked up one time, all I could hear was weird humming noise, then they just hung up.9 yearsI received a call yesterday, but it was just silence on the line. Today, they tried again, and I could faintly make out some noise from what sounded like a call centre before I got disconnected. I've decided it's best to block this number altogether now.9 yearsI got a call today from someone saying they handle solar panel maintenance. The caller was speaking super fast, hardly giving me a chance to think before responding. Felt like classic sales tactics pushing stuff I really didn’t require. Bit shady if you ask me.9 yearsover the past three weekdays, this number keeps ringing me, but whenever I pick up, it just goes quiet after a bit, and I can hear some noise in the background. seems a bit odd.9 yearsI got a silent call from this number. When I rang back, it played a recorded message saying the number wasn’t active. It definitely is, though - it even rang! Seems like they’re trying hard to hide who they really are.9 yearsGot a call from a number I didn’t recognise, didn’t ask for it either. Just went ahead and blocked the caller.Submit Your Own Report (01268 833157)
