Never rung back or left a message but this number’s really similar to loads of spam calls I keep getting so I’m guessing it’s just a scam.

I really can’t stand these calls where no one bothers to say anything. It’s infuriating! Just leave me alone, will you?

Called a few times today, didn’t leave a voicemail when it went to the answerphone. Ignoring now.

Had to block yet another pesky scam call, can't keep up with all these!

This number rings me every single day. I’ve told them to remove me from their list but they just don’t listen.

total scam, don’t trust it!

Got loads of calls from numbers that looked quite alike, but they never left a voicemail.

Got another call from Jo but this time from a new number, trying to talk about loft insulation again. I had already blocked her once before. This go around she just wouldn’t stop yakking, and she kept raising her voice more and more. I usually leave them on the phone so they burn some credit! Eventually I just ended the call and blocked yet another one of her numbers!

I keep getting calls from Leeds and Arbroath this week, and now another one from Manchester popped up which I have no idea about. All of these calls have been scams for sure! I just don't pick up and quickly block and remove them. It’s just endless scammers! Big thanks to Who’s Called Me for helping me sort this out.

I ended the call as soon as I realised it was another dodgy operation, especially since it took an eternity to connect.

Oh great, another one from Jo claiming to be an energy advisor. No thanks, I’m done with these annoying calls!

They rang me but hung up without leaving a message, which makes me suspect it might be a scam.

Got a call from a woman claiming to be an energy advisor trying to set up a loft insulation check. I just said I wasn’t keen and she ended the call pretty quick. Feels like a dodgy scam to me, so I’ve blocked the number.

I received a call from this number claiming to offer free energy consultation, which immediately raised my suspicions - another attempt at a free survey, I figured. Naturally, I presumed it to be a scam, so I decided to look it up, leading me to share my thoughts here.

I keep getting calls from this number, and it’s really annoying. They keep going on about some government plan offering free loft insulation upgrades. Honestly, it’s just a complete waste of my time.

Just received a call from this number about an hour back - I simply ignored it and added them to my blocked list. Judging by what I've read here, it looks like dodging this one was the right call!

I always let unknown numbers ring out to voicemail now, thanks to watching that show "Scam Interceptors." A few times when I checked the messages, you could hear people talking in the background, often with a strong Asian accent. Made me suspicious straight away.

Didn’t get any voicemail or message, so I’m guessing this is just another scam call from someone in India or Pakistan. Typical nonsense, really.

I normally avoid picking up when the number is unfamiliar, but this time I answered. There was complete silence on the other end and then the call just ended after a few seconds. I've blocked the number now.

Today at 4.22pm I got a call from 0161 524 2725. This number’s called me a few times before, usually out of the blue. I think it’s one of those annoying calls about insulation or something along those lines.

28th February 2024. Got a call from a woman claiming to be an energy advisor. I asked if she represented a particular company, and she said she was calling from a hub. When I pressed for the company’s name, she just said she was arranging free loft insulation surveys. She told me that if I accepted, I’d be informed of which company was handling it, saying it was “according to government rules.” I wasn’t too interested in the offer. This isn’t the first time she’s called either; last time, she either reached my voicemail or hung up when I asked questions.

There's this pesky group that calls me every weekday, changing their number each time on my home phone through VoIP. Even though tweaking the handset settings can be a right faff, I've somehow managed to customise the ringtone - it’s now much quieter when I’m close by and significantly louder when I’m at a distance. This way, I can give these tricksters the silent treatment much more effortlessly!

I got a call warning me that my loft insulation was a hazard. I told them I’m on the Telephone Preference Service and then just ended the call. Definitely a scam!

This number has rung me a few times, so I decided to pick up today. I got a young woman on the line who sounded a bit dodgy and couldn’t actually tell me what company she was with (which was pretty suspicious 😂). She kept going on about housing repairs, but it felt like she was either trying to scam me or just a builder cold-calling after grabbing numbers from social media or something. Not really convinced it’s legit.

My landline rang but the person hung up when it went to my answering machine. Just another annoying spam caller.

Got a call about my loft insulation, something about fibre glass being bad for my health. This is the third time today I’ve been called about it, all from different numbers. It’s definitely a SCAM, so I just ended the call straight away after a few seconds. Don’t waste your time talking to them!

Got a call from someone saying they’re an energy advisor around here, but they didn’t mention any company. I’m nowhere near Manchester either, so pretty sure it’s dodgy.

I just stayed quiet and let it ring out - you know how those robo scam calls wait for you to say something before putting you through to a person? Well, it just ended up dropping the call by itself :)

I simply allowed it to ring out, as I’ve already added it to my blocked list after discovering it's a scam. They seem to just tweak the last digits of the regular codes, so I’ve blocked all variations.

Got a dodgy call from one of those fake 0161 numbers, with a pre-recorded voice saying something like "I'm your local energy advisor." Pretty sure it was a scam trying to wind me up.

Without a doubt, a dodgy energy scam going on with those 01615 numbers - I get a couple of calls daily from various ones. They usually kick off with a sort of informal " 'Ello?" then some bloke pretending to be an energy advisor starts chatting. I just hang up straight away. If you don’t pick up, they leave these silent voicemail messages. Proper annoying!

Said they were calling from an energy provider and began going on about loft insulation. Since I’m on the TPS, they’re not allowed to ring me out of the blue like that. Ended the call straight away and blocked the number. Also filed a report with the ICO. Pretty clear it was a scam.
