Phone number ☎️ 01517010148 👆 is reported as a persistent scam operation targeting UK residents with scripted calls about government-funded loft insulation schemes or boiler and drainage policies. Callers, often using names like Patrick or Gavin, claim to follow up on recent installations or offer surveys, but quickly hang up or go silent when challenged, revealing the deceptive intent. Many victims report repeated calls, silence upon answering, or demands for personal data and payments, while others note these automated or recorded calls to prompt return calls that may be premium rate or fraudulent. Users strongly advise against answering or engaging, noting the numbers frequently change but employ similar tactics. Blocking the numbers and reporting to authorities is recommended to avoid falling victim to these unsolicited, suspicious calls.

6 yearsRang our landline, asserting he was from the company that handled loft insulation through some government initiative.

However, that call from his so-called “supervisor” never materialised.6 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be the Government Advisor about loft insulation in our area. When I explained that I live in a flat halfway up a high-rise, they just hung up on me. Clearly another scam or fishing attempt. I've blocked the number now.Government Consultant6 yearsGot a call about loft insulation that supposedly doesn't exist here. I told them we don't even have a pitched roof, it’s flat! I told them if they reckon they put it in, I wouldn’t be able to spot it anyway!6 yearsJust got a call about loft insulation, sounded like a total scam. The bloke was going through the exact same spiel as someone who rang me about it last week but from another phone number.

Bit odd, really.6 yearsNo answer, just quiet on the other end.6 yearsGot two calls from this number today. A bloke named “Patrick” said he was getting back to me about some “Government funded insulation”. When I told him I never rang anyone about it, he just put the phone down. I’ve blocked the number now.Patrick6 yearsGot a call from some bloke named Patrick on my landline, chatting about loft insulation I’d supposedly had done. I told him I actually rent a ground floor flat, so no loft here. Without a word, he just hung up. Proper cheeky if you ask me!Patrick6 yearsHe called about some government loft insulation they supposedly did for me a couple of years back. When I asked him a question, he suddenly went silent on the line, so I just ended the call.6 yearsGot a call saying they wanted to check on loft insulation funded by the government that supposedly had just been put in my house - which it hasn't.

Definitely makes me think it’s a scam or something dodgy.6 yearsGot a call from a guy asking if I owned the house, saying something about a boiler installation programme near me. He rang my mobile, and when I asked him where he reckoned I was, the line just went dead for nearly 20 seconds. After that, I just hung up.6 yearsLoads of people on here mention a back boiler that I don’t have, I’ve already upgraded to a combi boiler ages ago. When I told them I was just renting and not the owner, they cut me off straight away. I honestly hope the government gets tougher on these scammers, or even better, lets us deal with them ourselves. They’re the worst kind of people, absolute scum.6 yearsSaw loads of warnings about the number 02035192379 so I didn’t answer, same with Patrick calling from it.

It felt a bit dodgy, if you ask me.6 yearsToday I got two calls from 02035192379 where nobody said a word, just silence on the other end.

Bit unsettling, to say the least!6 yearsThey somehow managed to get our new landline number, and then just went totally quiet!6 yearsGot a ring from someone named Gavin earlier. Straight away, like within a few seconds, I knew it was one of those dodgy calls about loft insulation.

Just blocked the number now, can’t be too careful these days!6 yearsI told them I’m not over 60 but they kept going with their questions anyway.

Tried ignoring it most of the time.6 yearsI’ve gotten a couple calls like this from random numbers. It’s one of those recorded messages trying to sound like a real person, even throwing in little gaps for you to say something back.

Was actually heading out the door when my phone rang, had to rush back inside to pick it up, but by the time I answered, the caller had already hung up. Looking at the reviews here calling it "dangerous," maybe it's for the best I didn’t get to talk to them. Proper frustrating though!6 yearsThis bloke called saying he was Patrick and was ringing back about the loft insulation.

Quite cheeky, if you ask me!6 yearsAt first they were saying my boiler insurance was up, then switched to saying I needed to renew some sort of drainage cover. I’ve never had either of these policies. When I told them it sounded dodgy, they just said they’d go ahead with an automatic renewal anyway.

It’s so annoying!6 yearsSome scammers called my dad, who’s 80 and quite vulnerable, pretending they needed to verify his credit card info for some window and door insurance.
