So this bloke John from Green Energy always sounds really polite on the phone. But the moment you question anything, he just chuckles and ends the call on you. Bit odd, really.

Got another call from JO, my so-called local energy advisor. She changed her number again just 24 hours later. Told her straight up that what she’s doing is illegal, but she didn’t seem to care. Total scam.

Now it’s Manchester calling me, these loft insulation people seem to be flooding me with calls from all corners of the UK. Or maybe it’s just some muppet somewhere abroad sat with a laptop, pretending to be local and doing these dodgy scam calls to fish for info. Proper nightmare every single day, honestly they need to be stopped right now.

Got a call that just went silent, kinda like what others have said here. Seems like they've been ringing from different parts of the UK about loft insulation or something similar.

Got a call again claiming to be about government approved loft insulation. I told them off and ended up blocking the number. Annoying that this keeps happening even though I’m on the TPS list.

Within an hour, received two calls from 0161 numbers. Thankfully, our Call Guardian caught both and blocked them, and nobody tried calling back, so guessing they were scams.

I don’t recognise this number at all, but it seemed fishy and might be a scam pretending to be from British Gas.

This seems suspicious! A caller claiming to be from a local energy advisory service wanted to know if I own my home. Quite dodgy, if you ask me.

I got a call from someone in Manchester, England, claiming my loft insulation might be dangerous. They kept pushing me to buy their service but refused to say which company they were from. Didn’t even accept when I said I wasn’t interested. Proper annoying!

Received a call at 3:51 PM. The person on the other end introduced themselves as 'Darren', but I couldn’t quite catch the rest of the conversation. When I inquired, ‘Who am I speaking to?’, the line suddenly went silent.
