Phone number ☎️ 01268833768 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance number linked to cold calls promoting loft insulation and energy audits, often posing as legitimate energy companies. Callers frequently claim the recipient's postcode has high energy usage to pressure consent, despite many recipients being registered with the Telephone Preference Service. The calls are commonly silent or hang up when answered, with no messages left. Blocking is widely considered ineffective due to the scammers’ use of spoofed and computer-generated numbers, which can be numerous and frequently change. Users are strongly advised to report these calls to official fraud databases and notify their MPs to encourage regulatory action. The consensus is that humane vigilance and reporting are the best tools to mitigate this ongoing scam.

4 yearsI'm inundated with calls about loft insulation and it's really starting to get on my nerves!4 yearsApparently, I've received a rather unsolicited call from a so-called energy consultancy promoting loft insulation services. I've decided to block this number and would recommend others do the same.4 yearsThey rang me but then just ended the call straight away.4 yearsGot a call from 01268833768, some bloke called Martin claiming it wasn’t a cold call. He said it was because my postcode had the highest energy use around here - how on earth would he know that? Felt like a typical cold call to me. I told him I’m on the TPS and that I’d report him for calling anyway. Then he just hung up on me, so yeah, pretty clear it was a scam!MartinTelephone Preference Service4 yearsDidn't recognise the number, so I let it ring out without picking up.Caller4 yearsI saw the number but since it wasn’t saved, I just ignored it. They didn’t leave any voicemail or anything, so I’m guessing it was probably a spam or one of those cold calls. I’ve just gone ahead and blocked it now.4 yearsTwice today this number rang me but didn’t leave any voicemail. The second time I picked up and it was totally silent. When I tried calling back, it went straight to an answerphone saying “all our AGENTS are currently busy, please leave your name and number.” As soon as I heard “AGENTS” I thought it sounded dodgy, not medical or anything legit. So I just blocked the number straight away.4 yearsDidn’t answer as I didn’t know the number. After checking out some other comments, looks like it’s a scam.4 yearsI kept picking up the phone, but as soon as I started speaking, the caller would hang up. They ended up ringing me nearly three times daily.4 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be from an energy company, trying to sell insulation. Total cold call scam, watch out!4 yearsGot a call from 01268833768, seems just like loads of other calls I’ve been getting recently. I usually don’t answer numbers I don’t recognise, let it ring through to voicemail instead. No messages were left though. Deleted it straight away, just like all the others cluttering my phone.4 yearsGot a call earlier and they said they were from some energy provider’s customer service. This is the sixth time in just a couple days I’ve been hassled about energy stuff and insulation. So annoying!4 yearsJust got a call from 01268 833768 but didn't pick up since I don't know who it is. So, I've gone ahead and blocked the number.4 yearsThis bloke claimed he was ringing from an energy firm because my energy usage was sky high or something like that. I have no idea how he found that out. When he tried to tell me it wasn’t a “cold call”, I just ended the call - honestly, it was totally one!4 yearsI got a couple of calls yesterday from a bloke named Martin, who said he was with an energy firm. He rang me twice from a number starting 01248 800193, trying to get me to agree to an energy check for my place. I told him I wasn't up for it, but he seemed to not get the message. The calls always kick off with "this isn’t a cold call" as well.Martin4 yearsNo message was left, so ive decided to block the number.4 yearsI just put the phone down as soon as I picked up.4 yearsDidn’t bother leaving a message.4 yearsGot a call earlier from someone talking about home insulation.Submit Your Own Report (01268 833768)
