01618205003 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01618205003 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance and potential scam involving calls from an individual claiming to be a local energy consultant named "Chris." The caller frequently discusses loft insulation, mould, damp, and sometimes solar panels, often under the pretense of addressing issues with existing government grant insulation. Despite claiming to be local, the caller dials from various UK locations, suggesting no genuine local affiliation. The methodology includes cold calls, attempts to gather personal information, and pushing for unnecessary surveys or replacement services. Many recipients consider these calls as harassing, untrustworthy and advised to block the number. There is no evidence of verifiable credentials, making this a likely fraudulent telemarketing operation best avoided and reported.

5 yearsSomebody called me pretending to be from the local energy company, saying they needed to do a loft insulation check. I didn’t trust it at all, so I just ended the call and put a block on the number.5 yearsI've gotten several calls from someone saying they're an energy advisor. They keep chatting about things like damp, mould, and loft insulation every time they ring. Seems like the exact same spiel on repeat.5 yearsI got a call about loft insulation, and they said the stuff we got through a Government Grant was causing mould and condensation. They wanted my personal info, like asking me to spell my last name, to send someone over for a quote on a different product that supposedly doesn't have those issues. Felt a bit dodgy to me - how could they know exactly what insulation I've already got? Seemed like a telemarketing trick, maybe even scammy.Government5 yearsSome bloke called Chris, said he was my local energy advisor, rang me from a Manchester number, which is odd cos I’m down here in Devon. He’s phoned before too, claiming to be from Bournemouth and once even Glasgow - I guess he’s got a few numbers on rotation. Doesn’t seem to take a hint that I’m not interested. Has anyone figured out a good way to stop these calls?ChrisManchesterDevonBournemouthGlasgow5 yearsI've heard Chris has been everywhere - Bournemouth, then Cardiff, and now Manchester. None of those places are anywhere near here. What a muppet!BlimeyChrisReadingCardiffManchesterBournemouth5 yearsOh, the so-called energy advisor from down the street? What a joke, seriously!5 yearsGot a call from someone called ‘Chris’ saying he’s an energy advisor nearby. I seriously doubt he’s local, especially since the same name popped up from another number earlier. It’s turning into a proper nuisance and honestly feels like harassment now.Chris5 yearsI mentioned to them that our loft's all boarded up. Said if they’re game to clear out what’s been piling up for 50 years to replace the insulation, then go ahead!5 yearsGot a call about loft insulation outta nowhere, seemed dodgy straight away. Turned out to be a scam, so watch out if anyone rings you about it!5 yearsThis number called me but when I picked up, there was no one there. Just a total waste of time!5 yearsA number I didnt recognise rang my landline, but no message was left.5 yearsfew minutes ago, i got a call from someone named 'chris' who first asked if i was the homeowner. then he launched into a spiel about solar panels and insulating lofts. the voice sounded familiar, so i just ended the call.Chris5 years01618205003 kept ringing with nothing sayed, no message left either. Feels like some kinda scam to me, very annoying.5 yearsGot a call claiming to do loft insulation, but I told them I live in an apartment block with no loft. Seemed like a total scam to me.5 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be an ‘official energy advisor’, but really they were pushing loft insulation deals. Seems like it’s a known scam, worth being careful about.5 yearsHad a call from a bloke called Chris who wouldn't stop going on about loft insulation and solar panels. He kept asking if I owned the house before I finally just ended the call. Reckon I might’ve heard his voice a few months ago too.Chris5 yearsGot a call saying they were from a loft insulation company, sounded like a scam to me. They tried to pressure me into signing up for something I wasn't interested in. Definitely dodgy!Submit Your Own Report (0161 820 5003)
