01271500942 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01271500942 👆 is reported as a nuisance scam number often linked to a call centre falsely claiming to be from UK energy or finance departments. Callers typically use various aliases and sometimes foreign accents, persistently seeking personal or financial details. Calls frequently come from spoofed regional numbers and involve pressured or evasive behaviour when questioned. Many recipients report silent calls or immediate hang-ups upon refusal and no respect for Telephone Preference Service registrations. The callers are suspected to be operating from overseas, despite UK-based number displays. It is widely advised to avoid engagement, block the number, and not provide any information, as these calls fit the profile of aggressive data mining or fraudulent compensation claims.

Got a call from some Voxphone SA number claiming to be from the massive 'Energy Department'. Said they have loads of branches all across the UK, but the people answering were all Asian. Honestly, sounded a bit dodgy to me!

Got a scam call first thing this morning, but I just ignored it.

Got a call from 01271 500942 but no one spoke. Checked reviews and loads of people said the same. I’m just gonna block it and report now.

This number popped up flagged as potential spam on my phone. I usually reply in French (which I’m not fluent in) and it seems to confuse them enough to end the call. There was quite a bit of background noise but their English was unmistakably clear.

Got a call from a number I didn’t recognise, but there was nothing but silence on the other end. I guess they didn’t realise I’m not even in the UK anymore. Sounds like they were trying to fish info out of me, but if they can’t even say a word, they’re not going to get anything new from me.

I chose not to pick up since a number nearly identical to this one rang me a couple days back and it turned out to be a scam. They never left any voicemail, so I’m planning to block this one as well.

The bloke on the phone had a thick foreign accent, so I couldn’t quite make out all of what he was saying. He did manage to say my name and then started talking about some kind of compensation service, but honestly, I didn’t catch what it was for. I just told him no thanks to the compensation and waited to hear more, but after a bit of silence, he just hung up on me.

Didn't pick up since I didn’t know the number calling.

This guy called himself Jamie this week, said he was from some energy advice place. I told him I wasn’t interested right away but he just kept cutting me off, no manners at all. He didn’t take no for an answer and kept pushing which felt like a complete scam. Next week he’ll probably have a different name again!!!

This company contacted me multiple times claiming they wanted to review potential mis-sold finance, but it honestly felt more like they were fishing for personal info. When I questioned their reasons, they got quite defensive and kept hassling me for more details. They’ve rung from these numbers: +44 1271 500942 +44 1271 500939 +44 1271 500922 Would steer clear!

They rang up saying they were offering car finance through PCP and mentioned that if I agreed, a solicitor would get in touch afterwards. Not sure if it was legit or a scam, but I decided to say no thanks.

I checked the number first and it came up as a Barnstaple one, so I picked up. Turned out it wasn’t Barnstaple at all, but some call centre in India or something. The guy on the line called himself Mark and was talking about some energy company. With the number pretending to be local and the bloke using a dodgy name, I figured it was definitely a scam trying to pull one over.

They didn't bother with the TPS list at all. The moment the answerphone picked up, I just cut the call.

I answered it, but there was silence on the line and I got the feeling it was one of those dodgy scam calls.

They said it was coming from Barnstaple, but it definitely sounded like it was from some overseas call centre.

Got calls from some place claiming to be 'Credit Investigations'. They already had my name, which threw me off at first. Just a heads up, don't get tricked by it!
