01615315316 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01615315316 👆 is reported as a nuisance caller linked to purported energy grant offers, often using an Indian accent. Callers typically know some personal details but abruptly end calls or disconnect when questioned. These calls frequently occur around lunchtime and have been made daily to some recipients. Despite claiming to represent energy grant services and seeking boiler-related information, the legitimacy is dubious, with some postcodes provided not matching business locations. Many recipients find the calls intrusive, with no voicemail left, and some treat them as potential scams. The number is commonly blocked by users, especially those registered with the Telephone Preference Service, noting misuse of contact data and dubious practices. Caution is advised.

They called me and actually said my name, but I didn’t respond, and they just hung up. Definitely putting them straight on the block.

They rang me and I answered with a "hello," but nobody said anything back. Then after about 10 seconds, I heard a loud beep and the call just dropped.

My phone’s call blocking stopped it right away, didn’t even ring through.

This week, we've been getting a call at lunchtime consistently. The person on the other end sounds Indian, but as soon as I pick up, they hang up. It’s rather peculiar and quite bothersome!

I received a phone call from someone claiming to be with Eco Energy Grants. He seemed to have my name and postcode, which raised my eyebrows. It became clear he was fishing for details to share with a boiler installation service here in the UK. He inquired about the age of my boiler and whether I was receiving any benefits. When I probed further and asked where his office was located, he mentioned Oldbury in Birmingham, with the postcode B69 0JG. However, I noticed that the call originated from Manchester, which struck me as odd, and then to my surprise, the line went dead. That postcode is clearly linked to residential addresses, not businesses, and I have registered my number with the TPS. While I'm not categorising this call as a scam outright, it does feel like a flagrant disregard for the TPS regulations.

I got a call from someone who claimed to be with Eco Energy Grants and already had my name and postcode. It was clear he was gathering details to forward to a boiler fitter somewhere in the UK. He wanted to know how old my boiler was and if I was receiving any benefits. When I asked where his firm was located, he replied with an address in Oldbury, Birmingham B69 0JG. I then mentioned that the call appeared to be coming from Manchester, and the line just went dead. Funny enough, that postcode is actually for houses, not any company premises.

I received a call from a Manchester number bright and early at 10am on Friday, 8th December 2023. However, by the time I reached for my phone, the caller had already disconnected. When I attempted to return the call, I was met with a message saying, “This service cannot be connected” or words to that effect. It seemed rather suspicious, especially given the resemblance to previous annoying calls I’ve had.

I answered the phone with a quick hello but got nothing at first. After a bit, a man said hello back, then the call suddenly dropped out.

Just had a call at midday where someone with an Indian accent said a few words and then hung up. This is the third time this week it's happened!

When I picked up, some bloke with an Indian accent said he was Steve from the government's energy saving team. I didn’t hang about and just cut the call straight away. Definitely seemed dodgy to me.

There was a bloke on the phone with a foreign accent, seemed a bit dodgy. I straight up told him I reckoned he was trying to scam me. He kept insisting he wasn't, but I just ended the call anyway.

Got a call from a man with a strong Indian accent saying he was "Grant, from the UK Energy grant." I was so done by then that I just said, "Is that so? Alright, cheers," and hung up. Number got blocked straight away. These calls are already getting on my nerves.

I answered the phone but there was no one there, just a steady buzzing sound. I've gotten a few calls like this before from different Manchester area codes. Wasn't really waiting for a call so I doubt it was anyone I know or needed to chat with!
