01315169049 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01315169049 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance number linked to aggressive cold calling, often pretending to be from energy or window scrappage schemes. Callers use various mobile numbers masked as local landlines, making it hard to trace. Many say they receive calls daily, usually with Scottish accents, but no messages left. They frequently ask to speak to the homeowner and try to extract personal information, which raises concerns about potential fraud. The company behind it is said to be run by groups in the UK and South Asia, with claims of improper data usage. Efforts to report to authorities or TPS appear ineffective, leading to frustration. Overall, it's seen as a scammy, intrusive telemarketing operation best ignored.

11 yearsThese annoying cold callers seriously need to find real work instead of hassling people, especially those who are easy targets. The best thing is to just hang up the second they ring. Or, you could pretend you're getting the person they want, then leave them stuck listening for ages. It’s the only way to deal with them really.11 yearsThese people are seriously dangerous, if they manage to get even a tiny bit of your details, they can steal your identity, apply for loans, get bank cards - the list goes on and on. A few months ago, TalkTalk got hacked, and it turns out some employees inside the company were handing over people's info to these scammers. There’s fraudsters all over London and across the country doing this. Trust me, the police won’t do much about it, the system’s totally messed up. Just watch out and stay safe, everyone.TalkTalkLondon11 yearsJust let the phone ring and don’t pick up. The people running this firm are really dodgy. It’s mostly Pakistani blokes behind it, based in the UK but causing trouble all over. They aren’t calling from proper landlines, they use mobiles but make it look like landline numbers so you think it’s legit. They can spoof any area code in the country to make it seem like it’s a call centre. Honestly, it’s just a few groups of Indian and Pakistani lads organising this scam. Trust me on this one. Hope it helps. - KashPakistanUKIndia11 yearsSo got a call today, barely rang more than 3 times which is typical dialler behaviour. They’ve also been using 01315169048, but I blocked that one and now they’re ringing from a different number. Proper pests!11 yearsGot a call from 0131 5169049, they wanted to speak to the house owner. When I asked what it was about, they rambled on about some window replacement scheme. I told them I’m on the TPS, but they said that didn't matter as they’re not actually selling anything. I’m ex-directory too, so didn’t really want to chat. Ended up just hanging up.Telephone Preference Service11 yearsGot a call from some folks claiming to be the energy research centre, using a number from Edinburgh. Tried searching online but couldn’t locate anything about them. They said they were conducting research but it definitely felt like a telesales pitch. Everyone had strong Scottish accents too.Energy Research CentreEdinburgh11 yearsi reported this number to the tps but honestly it felt pointless. they claim they don’t have enough details to track down the company, but i gave them the edinburgh phone number! what else could they possible need? i bet i could find out myself faster than them. total waste of taxpayers cash if you ask me. what even is the point of tps? i’m seriously thinking of dropping a line to my msp about these absolute muppets.TPSEdinburghMSP11 yearsHello, is the homeowner in? Erm, no they’re not.11 yearsSomebody rang me saying they were with a government scheme for installing energy-saving boilers, but it turned out to be a total scam. Don’t fall for it!11 yearsI received a call from the number 01315169049, and they inquired whether I was familiar with the windows scrappage scheme. The chap went on to ask about the condition of my windows and doors. I replied that everything was perfectly alright and then promptly ended the conversation. 😊11 yearsrang me but they dropped the call right after i said something back to them11 yearsSomeone rang but never bothered leaving a voicemail.11 yearsThey rang again but left no message, and it’s not the first time this has happened.11 yearsThey've rung before and didn't bother leaving a message this time either. Pretty sure it's some kind of scam going on here.11 yearsI picked up the call, but the line was completely silent. No one on the other end!11 yearssome idiot trying to fish for my personal info, total waste of time11 yearsTotal scam! Just had a call from some dodgy energy research outfit. Complete tosser on the other end attempting to fish for my personal information. Avoid like the plague!11 yearsReceived a call around 17:20 today. They disconnected the moment I picked up.11 yearsThe call ended abruptly as soon as we picked up. Quite rude, if you ask me, and likely just another telemarketing ploy.11 yearsPhone rang but they didnt bother to leave any message.11 yearsIt seems to be associated with 'Alba Marketing'.Alba Marketing11 yearsI just tried calling back and was met with a recorded message mentioning that "Home Efficiency Research" had contacted me. Sounds suspiciously like a scam if you ask me!Home Efficiency Research11 yearsDay after day, this particular number keeps ringing my phone.
