01612432424 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01612432424 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance involving unsolicited calls primarily promoting loft insulation and energy-saving services. Despite many recipients being registered with the Telephone Preference Service and having ex-directory numbers, calls continue frequently, often without a clear caller identity or leaving messages. Several users describe silent calls, hang-ups upon answering, and aggressive cold-calling tactics, suggesting scam activity. The calls often originate from Manchester-area numbers but feel automated or connected to overseas call centres. Recipients are advised to block the number and remain cautious, as approaches may be attempts to scam or pressure homeowners into unnecessary or deceptive energy-related services. Authorities are urged to enforce stricter penalties to curb such intrusive practices effectively.

2 years01612432424 keeps ringing my phone non stop, it's always some energy or loft company. Can't get a moment's peace with all these calls everyday! 01612432424 is defo on my do not answer list now.2 yearsAnswered my landline and asked for their name, but they hung up straight away. I think they might’ve figured out I’d tried calling before from a different number and got no response. Bit strange really.2 yearsSo, I received a call from the number 0161 2432424, and it was this chap with an Indian accent. He was rambling on about how brilliant foam insulation is and the various government grants that are up for grabs. He seemed rather keen on sending someone over to check out my loft, claiming that my existing insulation had seen better days and was due for a swap. When I queried why he needed my address if he was already aware of my insulation issues, he abruptly ended the call. Quite dodgy, if you ask me!2 yearsGot a bunch of calls from some lot installation scam, really annoying.2 yearsThis number keeps calling me about some energy saving scheme, total scam. I've gone ahead and blocked it now.2 yearsGot a missed call from a number I didn't know. Tried calling back but it went straight to voicemail, as always no message left. I'm already on the TPS and my number’s unlisted - when will these annoying calls finally end?Telephone Preference Service2 yearsGot a call from some insulation scammers, had to block the number straight away.2 yearsI keep getting calls pretty much every day, sometimes early in the morning and other times late at night, but when I answer, there’s never anyone there. It’s happened like four or five times a day lately.2 yearsGot a call from someone pushing spray-on loft insulation, gave them the boot and blocked the number straight away.2 yearsJust like someone else mentioned before, I’m on the TPS and my number’s unlisted, yet these annoying calls still get through all the time. I normally let the answerphone handle it but never get a single message afterwards. It’s obvious a scammer’s robot trying to find someone to trick. I’ve blocked the number now.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsThey didn’t say their name and just asked if we had insulation in the loft. I just hung up straight away since we usually get at least one call a day about loft insulation.2 yearsHad a call today from Wells in Somerset, but chose not to pick up.WellsSomerset2 yearsRefused to say who they were.2 yearsReceived a dodgy call regarding all sorts, from energy savings to insurance offers. Best to steer clear!2 yearsI received a call but there was no one on the other end. Quite strange, isn't it?2 yearsGot a call on my home phone from 0161 243 2424 on the 8th of July around 1:21 in the afternoon. My number’s both ex-directory and registered with the TPS, so I didn’t pick up since I don’t know anyone with that Manchester area code. Fingers crossed if it was some auto-dialler, my number is flagged as no good now!Telephone Preference ServiceManchester2 yearsThis 0161 number rings me up constantly. Every time I block one, they seem to switch to a different 0161 number and start again. It’s so irritating because when I finally answer, there’s never anyone there. Feels like pure harassment! I’m really puzzled how they even got my number since I’m quite cautious about sharing it with anyone.2 yearsGot a call today from this number which seemed odd cos I’m based in London and it showed up as a Manchester area code. I Didn’t pick up cos I was with work stuff and when I tried calling back, nothing but silence. Someone mentioned here blocking these kinda calls so I went ahead and did that. Cheers to whoever gave us the heads up! I’d say stay clear and just block it straight away.LondonManchester2 yearsGot a call just after 5.50pm, which I thought was odd since it’s after work hours, and it ended up hanging up as soon as my voicemail kicked in.2 yearsOur landline got a ring on 9th July. We weren’t home at the time and the caller didn’t bother leaving a message on the answerphone. Bit annoying, really.2 yearsFor the last 4 days, I've answered the phone and no one's actually there on the other end. It's pretty weird.2 yearsThis 0161 243 2424 kept calling me, and honestly, it just wouldn’t stop for like 5 minutes. Had to finally put my phone on silent to get some peace.2 yearsI got a call on my landline from someone saying they were from the Heat Loss Team. I kept asking if they were ringing to book a survey, but they kept dodging my question. When I pointed out they hadn't answered, their reply was that their job was to ask questions! Some of these dodgy calls are so bad they end up being quite amusing.Heat Loss Team2 yearsOver the past fortnight, I've got three calls and no one ever says a word. It's like they're there, but not really. Quite weird.2 yearsI picked up when this number called but there was total quiet on the other end before they just ended the call.2 yearsLoads of new numbers keep coming through from Manchester, all about heating stuff! I've just blocked them all now.Manchester2 yearsI'm sick of those annoying cold calls even though I've signed up for the TPS, it doesn’t seem to stop them at all.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsGot a call about some heating and insulation deal, sounded fishy so I just blocked the number straight away.2 yearsReceived multiple calls today. Each time I answered, there was silence on the other end. <br/>Definitely sounds like a scam to me. <br/>We've registered for the Telephone Preference Service, but it seems it’s doing a poor job at filtering these calls out. <br/>Telephone Preference Service2 yearsI’ll be adding this number to my phone's automatic block list. Much appreciated!2 yearsThey rang while I wasn’t at home but didn’t leave any voicemail. I’m thinking it’s most likely one of those dodgy scam calls.2 yearsLately I've been getting loads of calls like this. The phone rings non-stop but as soon as I pick up, the line goes dead. It's getting seriously old now.2 yearsNo answer, just silence - I ended up blocking the number.2 yearsGot a call where no one said a word, just silence on the line. Bit weird, wouldn't you say?2 yearsI picked up the phone but the person on the other end just stayed silent and didn’t say a word.2 yearsThey rang me but I didn't pick up. I'm on the TPS list, so why bother even being on it if they keep calling? Such a waste!2 yearsNo one spoke on the other end when I answered. Just silence. Pretty frustrating!2 yearsThey keep ringing me, but every time I pick up, they just go silent and then hang up. So annoying!2 yearsSome dodgy callers trying to scam people out of their money.2 yearsGot a call about some insulation deal or something, sounded like a total scam.2 yearsThis number appears to belong to a firm hawking energy and insulation solutions. Definitely feels like a scam or some dodgy spam! We've got a filter in place to block unwanted calls, thankfully.2 yearsTotal rip off!2 yearsGot a call with no one leaving anything on the voicemail, just ended up blocking the number.2 yearsI picked up when this number called, but it just cut off both times it rang.2 yearsI got a call that kept ringing over and over, but as soon as I answered, it just hung up. Definitely a scam, I reckon.2 yearsSeriously, TPS needs to get tough and slap fines on these callers. They’ll only quit if there’s some proper punishment in place. This needs sorting now!TPS2 yearsThe phone just rang and straight to voicemail it went. Predictably, no one left a message again. Seriously, when are these calls gonna end?2 yearsKept calling my house non-stop for about 3 minutes. Definitely a scam.2 yearsIt was a call centre, so I just ended the call.2 yearsI recently got contacted about some insulation removal and it seemed a bit fishy, like a total rip-off. Definitely felt like a scam to me. Watch out for these sneaky calls!2 yearsAbsolutely dodgy call - definitely not safe!2 yearsGot a call on my home phone saying something about a 'heat loss assessment' and offering free home surveys if you're aged 50 to 70. I told them I wasn't interested straight away. It really sounded like some dodgy call centre overseas trying to convince folks to spend loads of cash to supposedly save money! Definitely wouldn’t put my trust in them.2 yearsI didn’t have any options for sorting the heat loss stuff since I’m renting from the council, not my own place. I went ahead and blocked the number just to be safe; my phone is pretty smart and it actually marked that call as likely spam.2 yearsI missed the call 'cause I wasn’t home, and they didn’t leave any voicemail or anything.2 yearsPhone rang but I didnt pick up, no voicemail or anything, they just disconnected so I blocked the number.Submit Your Own Report (0161 243 2424)
