8 yearsJust your usual dodgy travellers trying to nick your bank info so they can clear you out. Reporting it to the cops isn’t worth it, they’re either too stretched, couldn’t care less, or just don’t want the hassle messing with their comfy retirement.8 yearsI got a call earlier today but as soon as I picked up, the line just dropped out, no one spoke. Tried ringing back, but ended up stuck in some waiting queue with this weird message playing, saying "your call is important to us, please hold on". Didn’t bother hanging around so I checked this website instead.9 yearsGot a call earlier today but as soon as it went to my voicemail, they just dropped the line. Really annoying how easily these companies get hold of your number.9 yearsGot a call from them earlier today, they asked for my name then just ended the call! I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number now.9 yearsGot a call from 0126 897 2361 today at 2.21pm, but all I got was silence. Honestly, better that than waking up to a ring at 6.10am like the very first annoying call I got this morning.9 yearsThis number rang me after I'd already had a call from another Basildon one, which I blocked straight away. The first call was about some deals on windows and doors, but when I said I’m in a council flat, they just said, “So what does that matter?” Tried to keep it civil, but had to hang up in the end. Then this new call popped up from Basildon again. Looks like it's the same lot using loads of different numbers. Proper irritating!Basildon9 yearsI got a call from someone saying he’s with “House Utopia,” asking about a work mate’s EPC rating. He came across alright, so I’ll probably ring him back later.House Utopia9 yearsGot a call from this number earlier but no one answered when I picked up. Decided to block it now.9 yearsGot a couple of calls from Basildon unknown numbers. First one was on 5th January 2018 from 01268972361, and then again on 5th February 2018, also Basildon but a different number. Both calls came on the first Monday of each month, which makes me think it's probably the same call centre. Seems quite annoying and feels like a scam - why else would they keep switching their caller ID?Basildon9 yearsI've been receiving a multitude of calls from this number, and it's becoming quite tedious. Does anyone know how I can prevent these calls from coming through?9 yearsGot a call from someone who spoke all posh and polite, even said hello two times. I replied hello and then the call just got cut off. I’m not bothering to ring back since it might be a scam. Also, no idea who that area code belongs to.9 yearsI got phone calls from them on both my phone and my home line today. I'm pretty sure they're some kind of scammers. My tip is to never share any personal info with them, not even a little bit. They're an absolute nuisance.9 yearsGot a call from Basildon, but I've no clue who it could be. Just blocked it straight away.Basildon9 yearsGot a call from some random person who used my name before just hanging up abruptly. I'm registered with TPS and have definitely never agreed to any surveys or allowed companies to ring me. I actually manage a call centre and it's shockingly unprofessional. It really winds me up that telemarketers are still told to behave like this.Telephone Preference Service9 yearsI got a call from some bloke named 'George,' but the connection was terrible. He told me the company that put in my solar panels had shut down (which might be right) and offered to do the maintenance instead. He seemed a bit shady, so I didn’t go for it. They keep calling, though never bother to leave any voicemail.George9 yearsGot a call earlier from someone claiming to be with Green Energy, they said they wanted to help us save money on our hot water bills.Green Energy9 yearsI got two calls from this number. First one happened when I wasn’t in, didn’t leave a voicemail or anything. Then they rang again while I was around, but the moment I picked up, they just ended the call!9 yearsI got a call from some firm named House Utopia who wanted to check if my loft was insulated. They also claimed to have some energy report for my house, which I knew was rubbish since we've never had one done. When I asked where they got my number from, the bloke just said it was on their list. I told him I’m on the Telephone Preference Service and didn’t wanna answer any more questions. He ended the call right away.House Utopia9 yearsGot a call from Solartherm about checking out my solar panels, but I wasn't keen so just ended the call.Solartherm9 yearsGot a call from a company called Home Utopia or something like that. They said they were nearby and wanted to offer a free insulation check plus an updated EPC rating. I told them I’ve already had my insulation checked recently, so I wasn’t interested.Home9 yearsWe've had calls from this firm at least ten times over the last year, all asking for a Mr Paton. Every time we tell them that no one by that name has lived here or used this phone number for over a decade, the person on the line gets quite rude and just hangs up. We've tried ringing back ourselves but never get an answer. Honestly, we're really sick of these calls now.Paton9 yearsI got a call on my mobile from this number, but when I tried ringing back, no one picked up.9 yearsGot a call from this number that lasted about 16 seconds. When I dialled back, it sounded like an international call, so I just ended it. Definitely adding it to my block list now.9 yearsGot a call from one of those solar panel companies - don’t know how they got my info, if it’s even allowed? They hung up before they could set up a time to come "check" my panels. Quite suspicious!Submit Your Own Report (01268 972361)
