Got a call out of the blue from someone trying to sell solar panels, which was a bit annoying. Didn’t ask to be contacted or anything. Definitely felt like one of those pushy sales calls you don’t want.

Got a call from some sort of spammer. Very annoying!

Seems like a scam to me. I picked up the call and the answering machine started, but there was nothing on the other end, just quiet.

I blocked this number ages ago but it keeps ringing every single day. I'm so fed up with having to delete their messages all the time.

Got a call earlier but no message left on my voicemail. I never pick up calls from numbers that aren’t saved in my contacts. From what I’ve read here, it seems like these calls might be linked to that Green Connection lot, just using a different number this time. Lately, I’ve been getting flooded with scam calls, and it looks like the last three digits keep changing. You’d think BT or some authority would know who’s behind these numbers. So frustrating that nothing gets done about it!

No clue who keeps calling, but they ring me a couple of times every day. I just ignore the number whenever I see it pop up.

Their number showed up on my phone but I didn’t recognise it. It went straight to voicemail, but they didn’t bother leaving any message.

Got a call from someone named ‘Alex’ who was in a rush, saying he wasn’t trying to sell me anything. He claimed to be from something like ‘Green 9’. I’m not one to answer cold calls anyway. I’d bet a quid it was just some nuisance call.

Got a call from a bloke named Alex who said he was from some sort of Energy Research Company you'd seen on BBC. He asked if I owned the place and about having things like insulation, solar panels or an old gas boiler. He also wanted to know if I’d ever claimed any benefits or grants. When I asked where he got me info from, he mentioned I had insulation done years ago, something to do with Mark Group in Leicester about a decade back. Then he started quizzing me on my age, whether I was between 50 and 80 or over 80. I told him that didn’t really matter and said we should just end the call, thanked him, and hung up. I've been seeing numbers like this pop up on my caller ID for a few weeks and figured it was a scam all along. - Fleet, Hampshire

I picked up and the call just dropped straight away.

Just got a voicemail from some bloke named Alex on our landline ansaphone (we let it go straight to answerphone as we barely use the landline and it helps dodge annoying calls like this one). He claimed to be working in the local area (which makes no sense given our Manchester number) offering energy-saving gadgets - yet finished off by saying he wasn’t actually trying to sell anything… then abruptly ended the call. Honestly, his poor approach was quite amusing! Anyway, he’s been blocked and added to the list of nuisance callers who no longer come knocking but instead just randomly ring numbers hoping to catch someone.

The first time I picked up, the bloke said he was with an energy firm. The next time they rang, I just let it go to voicemail and didn’t get any message either.

Got a call from Alex claiming he was from some energy ratings company and wanted my info. Turned out to be a total scam, so don’t bother answering if you get the same.

From what I’ve read in the earlier posts, it seems like these calls come from Bournemouth, numbers starting with 0120 143 and then just swapping the last few digits. I got loads of calls every day, and whenever I picked up or it went to answerphone, no one spoke back. Definitely feels like a total scam to me.

Yesterday, I got a call from someone named Alex who said he was from an Energy Research Company. He asked me a bunch of questions like if I owned the house, whether I had solar panels, insulation, or an old gas boiler, and if I received any benefits or subsidies. Then he claimed I could cut my heating bills by 40% by using spray foam insulation. When I asked him for more details, he couldn’t really explain and said his manager would give me all the answers when he called back. I told him sure, he could call, but I wasn’t promising to do any work. After that, Alex just said "thanks for your time" and hung up. Today, Alex rang me again with the exact same patter, but I just ended the call straight away.

Some bloke called himself Alex, said he was from an energy company around here. Didn’t even let him get a word in after that.

Somebody rang me up saying they were from a free heating program, but when I looked it up, it turns out they’re not actually involved in any of those schemes. Pretty dodgy if you ask me.
