I received a call from an Indian call centre trying to pitch me cavity wall insulation. I told them I wasn’t interested and promptly ended the call.

Got a call from a place in India, a call centre looking for the homeowner about some cavity wall thing. I said once was enough, then they kept talking over me. I told them no again, still not getting it. In the end, I just said it was a nuisance and I'd report it. Thought they might as well improve their English and understand the words “no” and “not interested”. Joined the TPS ages ago but clearly does nothing!

When I picked up, there was silence on the other end. Clearly, they were ringing lots of phones, and I wasn't the first to answer.

Had a call from this Indian bloke, who sounded like he was working in one of them call centres. It was the second time I got rung while I was trying to eat my tea, so I just told him I wasn’t interested before he could even explain what he wanted. I’m on the TPS list - why is no one stopping these annoying calls yet!

Got a call from some Chinese lady today trying to sell cavity wall insulation or something, couldn’t make head nor tail of what she was saying so I just ended the call. Seriously, why on earth doesn’t BT put a stop to these calls? It’s so annoying.

They rang me twice, once yesterday then again today. I've decided to block the number for good.

I picked up but there was silence on the other end. I used to get calls like this from 01753441520, which I heard is a common scam number. Maybe they're now trying a different one?

Got a call from some cavity wall claims number, wasn't expecting it at all. Not even sure if it's legit or just one of those annoying cold calls. Sounded a bit off to me.

Called by some call centre from India about cavity wall insulation. Didn’t hang about, ended the call right away.

Got a call from a number that seemed to be from the UK, but it was clearly some sort of call centre in India. They were asking about issues with cavity wall insulation, which we don’t actually have. As soon as I started probing and brought up the TPS register, they just hung up.

I checked this number through 1471 and instantly felt something was off, probably a scam. It's definitely not a valid UK number in service right now. Wouldn't trust it.
