01491743017 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01491743017 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance linked to energy-related scams, often involving callers claiming to be local energy advisors or insulation experts. Despite many numbers being registered with the Telephone Preference Service and often ex-directory, calls continue daily, with some being silent or quickly terminated upon questioning. Callers frequently ask if the recipient is the homeowner and become uncooperative or hang up when challenged. Locations claimed rarely match the recipient’s area, suggesting the use of virtual or rented numbers to avoid detection. Many users note aggressive or evasive behaviour, no clear company identification, and typical tactics like referencing government grants for insulation. The consensus is to block the number immediately and report attempts to the Information Commissioner’s Office, as these calls are unwelcome, suspicious, and potentially illegal.

I just got a call on my landline from 01491743017. The guy on the other end asked if I owned my place. When I asked where he got my number from, he told me it came from some list given by installers. I don’t appreciate people ringing me up without even knowing my name. I told him goodbye and said I wasn’t interested.

I've had this bloke ring me twice in a couple of weeks even though I've told him to knacker off. It's a man with an English accent, says he's some sort of energy advisor and keeps asking if I'm the homeowner. I'm convinced it's a total con.

Some bloke rang me saying "Hi, this is Dan returning your call about the cavity wall insulation survey." Thing is, I’ve never done any such survey or asked for one. When I asked for the company's name and details, he quickly said "Alright, no worries" and then just hung up. I told him it was an issue since our number's on the TPS list and what he was doing is illegal. I've since reported the call to the Information Commissioner's office. It’s easy to do and if enough people complain about the same number, they could get hefty fines.

I received a call earlier from what turned out to be my local energy provider (I reside in the Midlands, but the call seemed to originate from Henley on Thames). The chap on the other end inquired if he was speaking to the homeowner. I couldn't help but point out that he should already know that, seeing as it was his company that called me in the first place. He then promptly hung up!

I received a call from a chap claiming to be with the Insulation Advisory Service based in Reading. He mentioned that, like numerous others, I had opted for their loft insulation scheme, which supposedly led to issues with condensation. He then started on a lengthy spiel, but I quickly interrupted him to clarify that my loft insulation wasn't installed under any government grant; rather, it was a recent addition that complies with contemporary government standards. I also made it clear that I'm registered with the Telephone Preference Service, hence he shouldn’t be reaching out to me. I’ll be making a report to the TPS regarding this call.

Claimed to be my "Local Energy Consultant" and sought to have a word with the homeowner. The constant distortion in his voice indicated that the call likely didn't originate from the listed landline. He just went on and on with the same rehearsed lines, sounding rather robotic. I've gone ahead and reported the number on BT's scam reporting site.

I’ve come across a rather dodgy situation! I received a call from someone claiming to be a local energy advisor, despite being miles away in Somerset and flashing a Henley code. When he asked if I was the property owner, I replied cryptically, “Perhaps, now spill the beans.” To my surprise, he hung up in a jiffy! It appears that DIDWW Ireland Limited is behind these virtual numbers, possibly to dodge the TPS regulations. I suspect this one was freshly activated to ensnare the unsuspecting. Quite the cheek, isn’t it?
