Total rip off.

Looking at the comments here, I pretty much agree with most of what’s been said about this number. I’m pretty sure mine was an automated call, or else this Joan lady must be seriously impolite. When I tried asking something, she just kept going nonstop, no breaks at all. It’s hard to believe people can’t be allowed to actually have a proper chat when all they want to do is push their so-called fantastic loft insulation!

If you want to make a difference in tackling these scams, one good trick is to flood the scam reporting system. Send the scam info by text to 7726. Also, have a look at the programmes on BBC One and Channel 5 about scams - they air on Monday and Wednesday nights and are available on iPlayer and My5. Proper eye-openers! Don’t fool yourself into thinking you’re immune to these tricks. Loads of people are clueless about the new versions of the old wangiri scam going about, and some still blindly tap links in texts or press 1 when prompted over the phone.

I was chatting to someone about energy stuff when suddenly another phone call popped up, and it turned out to be another scam. Quite annoying!

Got a call from someone saying they were my energy advisor, claiming my loft insulation was hazardous and could cause irritation... Well, your persistent scam calls are way more of a nuisance, thanks!

Got a call from someone asking if my loft insulation had been checked and offering a free inspection. Told them to send the details by email instead. Sounded a bit dodgy, but they were pretty pushy on the phone.

The phone stayed silent for ages until a lady came on saying she was an Energy inspector. She claimed that, because of some Government rules, most loft insulation had become illegal and that everyone could get a FREE insulation check! Then she asked if I was the homeowner. I told her it’s a Council flat. “Oh, sorry to disturb you,” she said, and then hung up. Sounds dodgy to me - if this "free inspection" is really for everyone, why just homeowners? Bit fishy, that.

I’ve had to switch off my answerphone once more because these annoying calls from 0131 numbers ending in 5181 and 1270 just won’t stop ringing my home phone. They’re really irritating, especially since when the answerphone picks up, they never bother to leave a message.

Got a call about some "energy saving" offer for loft insulation. Smelled like a dodgy scheme to me, looks like just another rip-off pretending to be helpful. Watch out, might be one of those energy scams!

Some dodgy energy company called me trying to pull a fast one, but they didn’t get anything from me.

Apparently, the energy advisor for pretty much all over the UK keeps ringing me. I’ve lost count how many different numbers she’s called from - these days, you just can’t trust any phone number you see. Honestly, it’s beyond annoying and feels like she should be punished for wasting everyone’s time.

Got a call from a woman warning me about dodgy loft insulation. I kept telling her I don't even have a loft, but she just kept going. Felt like it was some robot message or something. When I said no, the call just dropped straight away. Really weird.

Called my landline even though it’s on the TPS list. Definitely not following the rules!

Got a call out of the blue from this number about loft insulation. They started off by trying to scare me, saying stuff like “Old insulation in your loft can lead to lung issues.” Didn’t really sit well with me. Politely said no to their free inspection offer.

Absolute bunch of scammers, honest to god.

I've gotten calls from this number quite a few times throughout 2023, supposedly from an energy advisor nearby. I’ve caught on now because it sounds like the same person on the line every time, just trying to trap you into something. Be careful, don’t get caught out!

I got a call from a woman’s voice talking about home insulation, but the clips sounded super patchy like they were recorded at different times. She kept saying she'd ring me back, but the sound was so rubbish it felt off. Definitely a scam, so I just blocked the number.

Got a call about loft insulation and they started off with some scary stuff about “old insulation in your loft causing breathing issues”. When I asked where they were calling from, she hesitated and said something like “we represent several energy firms”. I pushed again for the caller’s company but she just talked over me. Tried once more asking if she’d share who exactly she was with, but she just ignored me and stuck to her pitch. I told her I wasn’t comfortable since she wouldn’t say who she was, and she kept speaking on top of me, so I just ended the call.

A guy started off saying something like ‘Gavin, your energy advisor near you’ but then got cut off by a woman wanting to discuss my loft. The first speaker sounded totally like a robot or some AI bot, while the woman seemed real enough. If these scammers can't even keep their stories straight on a call, I doubt they’re good at fooling anyone. Pretty obvious con to me - these types of calls have been pestering folks for ages now.

SCAM ALERT! Got a call from some “energy advisor” claiming they were from “my area here in England” - as if! I might as well be the Queen of Narnia for all the truth in that! Total scam, watch out!

I got a call that sounded like some dodgy pre recorded tape, some woman with a cockney accent kept glitching and cutting off mid sentence, then jumping to something new outta nowhere. She was saying the insulation in my loft isn’t safe and offering a free inspection. Thing is, we run a business out of a warehouse on a trading estate, so it felt pretty suspicious to me.
