01618502821 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01618502821 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance linked to aggressive cold calling scams, primarily involving false claims about NHS ratification and energy-saving measures such as loft insulation. Callers often use various similar numbers from the same area code, frequently changing the final digits to bypass blocks. They tend to pressure recipients for personal information and property details, sometimes responding rudely or hanging up abruptly when challenged. Many report harassment through repeated calls despite requests to stop, with no messages left and misleading local affiliations. It is highly advised not to engage, avoid sharing any data, and block the numbers promptly. Reporting to relevant authorities is recommended to help curb these intrusive and deceptive practices.
Reports on phone number 01618502821
2 yearsGot a call earlier today from someone claiming to be with the NHS. They told me they’re offering free insulation and said they’re the only ones approved by the NHS. Sounds like a total con to me. Just be careful and don’t fall for it!NHS2 yearsI took a call about loft insulation and they said someone would get back to me to arrange a visit. I blocked the number straight away. Then, later on, a different unknown number rang me and when I answered the bloke wanted to set up the appointment for the insulation. I told him I didn't want it and he just called me a #### before hanging up. My tip is to just say no right away and don't bother with them.2 yearsSome bloke named Chris kept ringing me from this number. I explained calmly that I don’t own the property, I’m just renting. I asked him politely to take me off his list, but he just carried on and called again a couple more times over the next days. Honestly, if he rings you, just hang up straight away. Whether it’s a scam or not, he’s not the kind of person you want to deal with.Chris2 yearsLooks like it is one of those install scams again.2 yearsGot another call from the 0161 850 number, they were talking about loft insulation and saving energy. Sounds dodgy to me. Blocked them straight away.2 yearsDefinitely a scam.2 yearsGot a call about some energy survey, asking if I wanted a loft put in and trying to get my personal details. No chance, I’m not daft. Blocked the number but they keep ringing from loads of other ones.2 yearsI really do hope this incessant stream of bothersome calls comes to an end soon.2 yearsReceived a call concerning energy matters.2 yearsThese blasted numbers just won’t stop calling, morning till night! I’m so fed up with it. Really wish there was a decent way to put an end to all this.2 yearsThey just keep on calling no matter what, so I always end up blocking and ignoring. Might have to get a whistle to deal with them next time! :)2 yearsSo frustrating, they keep ringing from different 0161 850 numbers all the time. Sometimes I pick up and just blow a whistle straight down the line, which seems to stop the scam calls for good. The way they freak out on the other end is hilarious 😁2 yearsSeems like a total scam to me, they say they’re from some Energy Efficiency firm checking roofs and lofts. Best to steer clear of them completely!2 yearsGot 3 calls today from 3 separate numbers, happens every week. Always different numbers and departments but all from the same firm.2 yearsDidn’t pick up, didn’t recognise the number.2 yearsSome bloke rang me about energy things in my area. I told him I’ve moved out of the UK, but he just didn’t know what to say and ended up hanging up.UK2 yearsThis number rings me all the time but doesn’t leave any voicemail, so I blocked it. Now they’re calling from a different 0161 code. I don’t pick up calls from unknown numbers unless I look them up here first - way too many scams these days.2 yearsThis number keeps ringing me like 5 times every day and I already blocked it, so annoying!2 yearsThis was definitely a scam call.2 yearsTotal con artist!2 yearsSeemed dodgy! They tried to get me to let them in but when I said I'd already done a few checks, they just cut the call without even a proper goodbye. Wouldn't trust 'em!2 yearsLoft insulation con again. Keep getting calls like mad, must be on some list of easy targets or something. This time it was a friendly-sounding South African lady saying sorry for calling me so much. Last time a really annoying South African bloke called, pushing me hard about getting a site check, but I said no way, no loft insulation here. When I mentioned I live on a boat, they got proper annoyed. They rang me two more times, telling me I was rude for wasting their time. I had a grin every time, knowing I’d got on their nerves.2 yearsGot a call from a random number with no voicemail, so I just blocked it. Most likely some sort of scam.2 yearsTotal rip-off.2 yearsNot this again! This number has annoyd me before. I hang up and block it but they ring back from another number. Also, a 0151 number keeps pestering me - got like 7 calls in one day last week. I dont pick up, block it, but somehow they manage to call from another line. Watch out folks and stay safe.2 yearsGot a really rude call, bloke nearly got aggressive when I refused to share my details. Sorted with block.2 yearsThey've rung me up twice within a few mins. Proper scammers. My number must’ve been nicked and passed about cos I get loads of random calls. Thinkin of switching my number cause it’s been like this for ages and they just don’t stop.2 yearsThis number rings all the time but never bothers to leave a message.2 yearsThey call me daily and whenever I block one number, they ring from some other one! I try to calmly tell them about GDPR and how they aren’t allowed to phone me without my consent, as it’s a breach of privacy, but most times they cut me off before I even finish talking - they clearly know what they’re doing. Both me and my hubby get calls at least two times every day. He just leaves them, but it really winds me up!2 yearsGot a call but no voicemail, checked the comments and decided to block straight away.2 yearsThey rang me saying they’re interested in homes nearby to chat about energy stuff, then just dropped the call.2 yearsThe person on the line claimed to be an energy advisor for my area and wanted to know if I was the listed homeowner. But as soon as I asked him to verify my postcode, he just hung up on me!2 yearsReally aggressive, I asked who was calling and they just said great, we have all your details!! Then they kept talking over me. I told them not to call again and hung up. I blocked the number but they still managed to get through! Never answer if this number rings you.2 yearsPut them on the block.2 yearsThis number and a few others like it keep ringing me non-stop. I picked up by accident one time and some person said they were an energy adviser. I straight away told them to take my info off their lists. Even though I said that, they still bother me with calls every single day, so I just don’t pick up now. It’s such a pain when you’ve got a full day already.2 years01618502821 - total scam, watch out!2 yearsAbsolute scumbags... Like loads of people have said here, just put them on your block list.2 yearsGot multiple calls from this number yesterday so had to block it. Scammers are definitely on the rise every day, what on earth is going on with Great Britain these days?Britain2 yearsEnergy scammer also calls using the last four digits 2815 along with the other number mentioned.2 yearsGot quite a few calls from 0161 850 ....... across a few days. Ended up blocking them all.2 yearsRandom call Totally scammy Yet another 0161 code Blocked straight away2 yearsTotally a scam.2 yearsGot three calls from this number all within 5 hours today, was really getting annoying. Blocked and reported straight away.2 yearsI keep getting calls from this number claiming to be energy advisors. I've told them repeatedly to stop ringing my mobile, but they just won't take the hint. They're becoming quite the annoyance, to be honest. I recommend not answering if they ring you!2 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be an energy advisor, but it felt totally dodgy. Definitely sounded like a scam to me.2 yearsGot loads of calls from 0161 850 ****, they keep changing the last 4 digits.. some energy saving or loft insulation con.. blocked them all over again...2 yearsKeep getting annoying calls, block one number that starts with 0161 850 and then they ring back from a different one. Total scammers!2 yearsThey kept calling a few times but never left a message! I finally picked up the last call (was feeling a bit cheeky) and said I stay in a caravan, then they just hung up! Same trick I use with those loft insulation callers that won’t stop ringing! Only pick up if you’ve got time to waste, then just say you’re renting!2 yearsFed up with calls from numbers pretending to be my local energy provider. When I asked where exactly they said I was, they couldn’t give me an answer. Wasn’t exactly polite and told them straight to stop ringing me and to remove my name from their list. Used a few strong words too. Honestly, I’m so over it.2 yearsI tried ringing back to find out who it was. Turned out to be the Energy Advice Centre. They keep ringing from a Manchester area code, really annoying. I just block every number they use now.Energy Advice CentreManchester2 yearsGot a call from some scammer in Manchester.Manchester2 yearsConstantly getting calls from what looks like nearby area codes, all blocked out.2 years+44 161 850 2821 and other numbers like it keep ringing me non stop. Feels like they’re purposely bothering folks.

I block them over and over but they just keep coming from new but similar numbers. Proper annoying scammers!2 yearsMy new phone automatically blocks numbers it suspects to be spam. So the call showed up in my recent calls, but my phone never actually rang. After reading other folks’ experiences, I’m really relieved it works that way!2 yearsScam alert!2 yearsThey keep ringing all day long and the moment you pick up, they just hang up. It’s really annoying, especially if you’re expecting a proper call. I block the number but then they just switch it and start again.2 yearsSo annoying! These numbers just keep ringing me, even though I’ve blocked a few. They don’t bother leaving a voicemail, so I’m guessing it’s just more spam calls!2 yearsHe claimed to be in charge of energy saving schemes in my area, but when I asked which postcode he meant, he just talked right over me and didn’t give me a clear answer.Said2 yearsBeen getting annoying scam calls non stop for like 3 weeks now. I block one number and they just ring back from different ones, really frustrating!2 yearsGot calls from this number four times today. They keep switching up the last four digits. Looked it up here. I’m constantly blocking it, but it keeps popping up with different endings. The main part is 0161 850, then it’s either 2830, 2821, 2842 or 2059. All of them I’ve blocked now.2 yearsThese lot keep ringing me from loads of different numbers. Every time I block one, they just switch to another one to keep bothering me.2 yearsDidn’t pick up, so now I’ve blocked the number.2 yearsEnergy rip off calls Got calls from these numbers over last few days - they’ve been tweaked slightly like ending with 2821, 2842 and 2052 or something similar.. Blocked each one but they just keep ringin... so annoying... you'd think they’d get the message, NOT interested... Said things like "Leave me alone" but nope.. feels like harassment now, maybe time to report to the Communications Ombudsman?Energy ScamCommunications Ombudsman2 yearsDidn’t leave a voicemail. Probably one of those energy scams.2 yearsHad my first cold call today from those same Manchester numbers starting with (0161850xxxx), really getting on my nerves. Could be more proof against that so-called "improvement person" at work who’s being looked into for breaching data protection and other nasty behaviour like bullying. Anyway, they've been blocked now.2 years+44 161 850 2821 Didnt pick up! Wasn't even in the mood to answer lol!2 yearsGetting two calls daily, block the number and the next day they just switch up the last two digits - end up blocking again.2 yearsSome bloke called himself ‘Chris, your nearby energy advisor…’ I tried to cut him off but he just kept going with his spiel. So I told him he was ringing from Manchester, which ain't local for me, and said I wasn’t interested before hanging up. I don’t like being rude, but since I didn’t want to get into it, and he didn’t sound like the sort to chat about the weather in York, I thought it best to end it quick and easy for both of us!ChrisManchester2 yearsReally annoying, they keep calling both my house phone and my mobile. I just don’t pick up and have blocked the number now.2 yearsThey asked if I owned the property, and I was like, which property?

The guy wouldn’t say who he was properly, and when I told him I couldn’t talk cos I was working, he just assumed I must be the homeowner or the person handling the energy bills. Sounded pretty rude, so I told him again I couldn’t chat and hung up. After seeing all these comments, I’ve blocked the number now, cheers everyone.2 yearsKept calling nonstop, got really irritating so I blocked the number.2 yearsBlimey, nine calls in just four days? No chance I'm picking up the phone for that!Blimey2 yearsGot a couple of calls today about some energy saving thing, but when I asked which company they were from, they wouldn’t say. I asked again and then they just hung up on me..2 yearsI received a call from someone claiming to be with an energy consultancy, named "Chris."

Now I just ignore and block any calls from those numbers.Yorkshire2 yearsHe said his name was Chris, sounded English, and claimed to be from the local energy company, noting I own the house.
