I received a phone call from someone who purported to be an energy advisor, claiming to be based in my area. He rambled on about my cavity wall insulation and how it was allegedly responsible for damp issues, among other things. Quite clearly unsolicited!

Some guy kept echoing and kept repeating himself, sounded like he was juggling a bunch of calls at the same time! He claimed to be from an energy supplier supposedly working around here. He asked if I was the homeowner but I didn’t reply and instead asked who he was, then he just hung up! Proper annoying.

Got a call from a guy on my landline, number was 0161-394 0053. He asked if I owned the house and if I had a boiler, said it was about saving energy or something. When I asked who he was, he just hung up!

0161 394 0053 just called me, pretending to be from my own area with that energy deal again - as if! Total rubbish.

I saw the number but didnt recognise it, so i just let it ring till it went to my answering machine. No message was left tho, but somehow it caused my landline to act up. Ended up having to cut the power to the phone to fix it.

Got a call earlier offering a free check-up on my cavity wall insulation, plus a report. They also mentioned they could suggest a wall coating to stop damp and mould if I wanted. I politely declined, no thanks.

I answered and said hi but there was no reply so I just hung up. Wonder why they even bother calling if they don't say anything?

Got a call from 0161 394 0053 about some cavity wall insulation warning that it might cause dampness, and they wanted to offer a coating for my walls to prevent it. I cut him off and told him I’m a retired builder and asked how slapping a coat on the walls would fix it. He just hung up straight away. Total SCAMMERS!!

I got a call about cavity wall insulation and possible damp issues. The bloke claimed he was ringing from Reading, but the number showed up as Manchester. They weren’t on the TPS and just ended the call when I asked where they got my number from. Quite dodgy really.

Got a random call about cavity wall insulation, claiming my house might have damp problems. Didn’t ask for it at all. As soon as I questioned where they found my number, I just ended the call.

Got a call from a supposedly local energy advisory group, but it smelled fishy right away. They completely brushed off the whole TPS rules, so no doubt, it's a total scam.
5 years
He claimed he was offering a roof insulation check to see if damp was ruining it, then asked if I was between 40-75 or over 75 years old. When I asked how he knew I actually owned the house, he just hung up on me.

Got a call on my landline and could instantly tell it was dodgy. The bloke was way too chipper and started off by saying he knew I was the homeowner, without even checking who I was or whether this number was even for a home. Spoiler - it isn’t. Definitely felt like a scam from the start.

Just like a lot of people here, I got a call from an energy company, but they ended the call pretty quick. I tried ringing them back on 0161 394 0053 and was met with an answering machine. It said something about being a market research firm and if I didn’t want any more calls, press 1. Not sure if I ended up wasting their time or not!

A couple of weeks back I got a call from this number and after seeing what folks wrote here, I just blocked it. Probably the same kind of deal.

Somebody said they were from the Insulation Advisory Service in Reading, but the call came from a Manchester number which was a bit dodgy. I asked them about the number and they just went quiet. When I asked nicely to take me off their list, they just ended the call straight away. Seems like a total scam to me.

Got a call from some energy firm claiming I’d got a bill left unpaid from an old place. Told them I’ve been living here for more than 60 years and don’t owe anything. The bloke started swearing and then just said, “See you in court.” Quite a cheeky experience!

Just like the others mentioned, this bloke said, "I'm an energy advisor and I believe you're the homeowner." It was a well-spoken guy with a clear English accent. When I asked him, "What's my name?" he just cut the call straight away.

I got a call from someone claiming to be with an insulation firm, asking if I'd had insulation put in under some government programme a couple years back. They said some folks were getting condensation issues. I told them I hadn't had any insulation done, and they just ended the call straight away. This number has rung me several times before too.
