01618502841 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01618502841 👆 is reported as a persistent scam call from a supposed energy company mostly operating from Manchester numbers. Callers often claim to be local energy advisors asking if you are a homeowner, but fail to provide details or prove legitimacy. Many users experience repeated calls several times a day, with numbers frequently changing slightly to avoid blocking. The calls tend to hang up abruptly when questioned, and no voicemails are left. Several accounts mention the scammer seeming to know personal info but lacking true knowledge of the caller’s area. The consensus is highly negative, with calls considered harassing, suspicious, and disruptive, especially for vulnerable individuals. Blocking these numbers is common but often ineffective due to the use of multiple variants.

2 yearsGot a call claiming to be from an energy company, but they wouldn’t give any specifics or say which one they were with, felt really dodgy. Probably a scam attempts. When I told them I was sorted with my current energy supplier, they hung up right away. No proper company would act like that. Never share your info and don’t trust any caller unless you’re sure who they are.2 yearsKeep getting calls from Chris, my energy advisor. Had to block it and now it's ringing a different number of mine. Sounds like a robot, keeps repeating the same thing if you don’t say anything.Chris2 yearsI picked up once and told them im not interested, yet they keep ringin my number.2 yearsFraud call, just blocked the number.2 yearsThey ring me like 4 times a daiy! I never pick up those scam calls.2 yearsTried booking a free insulation check but the line was always busy.2 yearsNot quite sure who they were with, but they called saying they were running an energy survey round here. Didn’t mention any specific area and I didn’t give out my postcode or anything either. I asked if they had a website or a number I could check, then they just cut me off. Feels like a scam to me. Not picking up if they call again.2 yearsI wouldn’t waste your time picking up this number, it’s just pointless calls with no real value.2 yearsI'm so annoyed with calls from Manchester, they show up as a silenced call on my phone but the numbers are slightly different each time. I'm just done with it, need to block them all.Manchester2 yearsPhone rang but I didnt pick up. Sounds like a Brummie number.2 yearsJunk call again!2 yearsGot more numbers and locations saved than anyone I know, I swear I end up blocking about 3 new ones every single week, all from different places.2 yearsThis number keeps ringin me non stop. I just ignore it every time. Its worryin cause im expectin a really serious call from the hospital. Its like they know when im usin my phone more than usual, do they have some kinda access to my info or somethin?2 yearsGot a missed call from this number at 9:12am today. BLOCKED straight away. Same thing happened the last couple of days with calls from 0161 850 2821 at 3:14pm on 20/06/2024 and 0161 850 2847 at 11:40am on 19/06/2024. All definitely the ENERGY LOFT INSTALLATION SCAM. BLOCKED them all.2 yearsWas just chillin with my mates and thought I'd pick up the phone for a laugh. Some bloke with a British accent from an energy firm was on the line. I sussed it was dodgy straightaway, so me and my pals had a bit of banter with him till he gave up and hung up. Proper scam if you ask me. Plus, two different numbers popped up on my phone, both apparently from the same energy provider in Manchester. Total rip-offs!Manchester2 yearsHad two calls pop up as spam and telemarketers on my phone, they just ring a few times and hang up without leaving a message. Ended up blocking two different numbers in the space of a couple hours. Proper frustrating!2 yearsI never pick up when this number rings, yet they just keep ringing me.2 yearsFinally, this scam number should be blocked for good. If more people reported scam calls by texting 7726, there’d be a better chance of shutting down the scammers. You can find more details on how to report phishing attempts on the police’s Action Fraud website. Honestly, if you don’t bother reporting, don’t moan when the calls just keep coming.Action Fraud2 yearsDodgy energy company, Manchester Aql wholesale, watch out!AqlManchester2 yearsOver 100 different numbers and loads of offices keep calling me nonstop.2 yearsReally weird. They had my postcode, defo think this is some sort of scam, wouldn’t trust it.2 yearsThis number has rung me several times now. They pretend to be from an energy firm. What’s creepy is they actually knew both my first and last name, so it wasn’t just some random caller.2 yearsIts really starting to annoy me, they ring like every other day, and I keep having to block new numbers. How come these scammers get handed so many phone numbers from the phone companies? Feels like someone there must be profiting from it or something.2 yearsTotal scam & keeps ringing me non stop, I’ve had to block the number now.2 yearsThey just keep ringing and won’t quit.2 yearsThey've called my mum like 10 times already but she only told me bout it today. I've gone ahead and reported them to the cops and blocked the number for her now.2 yearsGot a call back from this number but on a mobile, and the person ended up calling me a total rude ####. Any idea how I can report these kinds of numbers?2 yearsI stopped picking up 0161 calls ages ago, they’re pretty much always a scam.2 yearsA bloke named Chris rang me claiming he’s an energy consultant for my area. I asked him to tell me my own postcode and he got all flustered then just hung up.Chris2 yearsOn 10th June 2024, got a call from a private number around 5.12pm, Nottinghamshire area. I never pick up calls from 0161 numbers, they’re pretty much always scams, whether it’s a landline at 8am, a mobile in the afternoon or even landlines at the weekend. Most of these calls are just scammers and conmen. If it really was something important, they’d ring back with clear info and a different number you can check with the company to make sure it’s genuine and safe. It’s really quite straightforward!Nottinghamshire2 yearsGot a call on my mobile earlier from a bloke with a really sure tone saying, 'Hi, I’m your energy advisor, are you the homeowner?' I asked, 'Which company do you work for?' and he just hung up straight away. Such a waste of time!2 yearsOh, it was Chris once more, the guy from my local energy advice team...Chris2 yearsA guy with a nice voice said he knew I owned the house, I asked him where he got that info from and then he just ended the call - total SCAM.2 yearsPut them on mute.2 yearsGot a call from a number I didn’t recognise, 0161 850 2841, around midday during the week. I just let it ring without answering and there was no voicemail either. Considering the comments here already, I’ve gone ahead and blocked it.2 yearsSome bloke called claiming he thought I was the house owner and pretended to be from an energy company.2 yearsSent a message but no reply back.2 yearsYet another day brings yet another pesky spam call.2 yearsDefinitely a scam, don’t trust it.2 yearsReceived a dodgy call about energy deals. Totally blocked them!2 yearsTotally a scam, don’t trust it!2 yearsFraud alert! The TPS should really step up and deal with these scammers properly!FraudsterTelephone Preference Service2 yearsGot a call from some cold caller using a random number generator, even though I never shared my private number with anyone.2 yearsThey kept ringing me... I picked up once while I was driving using hands free, but hung up quick when they started talking. They already had my full info, name, address the lot. They asked for 30 seconds to do a survey, said I already done it. They just wouldn’t stop calling... so I ended up blocking the number.2 yearsThey keep calling, the first part of the number is always 0161850 but the last four digits keep switching. I didn’t pick up, checked the number online and then blocked it.2 yearsIt came across like some sort of job centre for school leavers, this bloke said his name was Chris and he was from the energy advice team. Asked if I was the one paying the gas and electric bills. When I told him it was covered in the rent, a woman suddenly shouted 'liar' really loudly and then the call got cut off. Tried ringing back to get through to a manager but they said none exists. Number’s blocked now.Chris2 yearsGot a missed call and looked it up here, saw what others said so I just blocked it. Cheers to everyone who left their experiences!2 years01618502841 - energy con - keeps blowing up my mobile and home phone. I block one number, then they switch to a slightly different one and keep trying. If this site is collecting details about these calls, you'd think there’d be enough data from all the bad reviews to take real action, instead of just pushing TPS, which honestly, I think is pretty useless. Seriously, whoever’s behind this, step up and sort these scam calls out. Show us that your site actually does something useful!2 yearsSaw I missed a call, had a look here, definitely a scammer, so I’ve blocked the number now.2 yearsGot three missed calls from this number today alone. I ain't ever bothered to call back though.2 yearsHad a blocked call from some energy firm attempting to peddle their services. Quite the nuisance, really!2 yearsThey rang me a few times over the week but never bothered to leave a voicemail?2 yearsAnother bloody scam, something really needs to be done about these ####.2 yearsI got a call on my phone at 11:07am, and they’ve been ringing me from similar numbers like 0161 8502841 and 2847 quite a bit.2 yearsReceived a call from a bloke who sounded really polite and asked if I owned the house. I figured it was someone from the energy company, but when I told him I wasn't the owner he quickly said thanks for my time and ended the call. I looked up the number here and saw lots of bad reviews, so just a heads up. My mum lives there and she’s 75 and quite vulnerable - if she’d picked up I’m not sure what could’ve happened, which worries me a lot.2 yearsSays they’re a “local” energy advisor, but that’s total rubbish. They couldn’t even name the area I’m in. If they’re lying right from the start, you just know everything else they say is dodgy and can’t be trusted.2 yearsI got a call on my phone from 0161 850 2841, but I didn’t know who it was so I just let it ring out.2 yearsJust got another ring from a number like that, so I gone and blocked it now.2 yearsBeen getting calls from these lot for three days now, they just keep switching up the last few numbers.

Looked it up here and I’m going to block it now.2 yearsWe should really do something about these annoying pests, maybe catch em and give em a good old public flogging?2 yearsGot another dodgy call from these lot. The number started with 0161850 but the last 4 digits were different again, this time it was 2841. This is like the fifth time they’ve rung me with just those last digits switched up. Honestly, the phone companies should do something about these ####. I never pick up, just check the number on here first then block. Proper nuisance.2 yearsGot called 7 times within just 2 hours.2 yearsGot a call from some energy scammer claiming to be my local rep for my postcode, but they used a Manchester number and I’m down in Sussex. Typical! Seems like they’re ditching landlines and going straight for mobiles these days.ManchesterSussex2 yearsGot a 3rd call today from 01618502842 now. I keep blocking any number beginning with 0162950... The last 4 digits always change. It's really annoying cos I’m sure it’s a scam. TPS seriously needs to do something about this. They just have to check how many reports this call centre has had already.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsI've been getting these calls like five times a day even though I've blocked them on my phone. I'm absolutely fed up with it. Someone really needs to take action against these scam callers.2 yearsNever leaves a voicemail. Definitely a scam caller.2 yearsLooks like this firm keeps switching up their numbers to get through to folks. I’ve already blocked 4 different ones from them.2 yearsThey keep ringing me, ive had about 5 calls today alone. Ive blocked loads of numbers but they just use new ones to keep at it. Really annoying and feels like harassment.2 yearsThis company keeps ringing me non-stop from different numbers. Every time I answer and ask who they’re with, they either hang up or just keep going without answering. I’ve told them loads of times to take me off their calling list. If anyone can tell me what company they actually are, that would be great so I can report them to the TPS.Telephone Preference Service2 yearsDidn’t pick up, kept ringing nonstop.2 yearsNo reply so I looked it up here instead.2 yearsI just let my dog pick up the phone, was so funny!2 yearsEvery day it rings once, I don’t pick up coz it shows as a telemarketer scam on my phone, so I’ve blocked the number now.2 yearsGot a call earlier today from someone claiming to be with an energy company.

They said thanks for chatting and then ended the call.2 yearsThey ring me like 3 or 4 times daily, I don't pick up if I don't know the number, so I've just gone ahead and blocked it now.2 yearsHe asked if I owned the house then said he worked for some energy provider claiming there’s a new rule about inspections every three years and questioned me about loft insulation. I just said no thanks and ended the call.2 yearsDidn’t know the number so I only pick up calls from people I know, so I just blocked it straight off.2 yearsTotal scammers, just blocked them straight away.2 yearsIDK WHO THIS IS, I NEVER PICK UP UNRECOGNISED CALLS, THINK IT MIGHT BE ONE OF THOSE SCAMS.2 yearsGet calls pretty much every day! Often it's just silence, or when they do chat, it's some rubbish about energy saving and whatnot. I've blocked loads of numbers starting with the Manchester area code.Manchester2 yearsLoads of these calls kept coming through, so I tweaked my phone to stop ringing when I get unknown numbers and just send them straight to voicemail. Funny thing is, they never bother leaving a message. Sorted it out!2 yearsI get these calls all the time, it's so irritating. Every time I block one number, they just ring me from another one. They never even leave a chance for you to pick up. I just ignore any number I don’t recognise now.2 yearsGot a call today from a Manchester number, first cold call I've had in a while. Makes me wonder if this is linked to that guy at work who's being looked into for data breaches and all sorts of bullying issues.

When I asked them to tell me which address they meant, they just cut the call straight away.2 yearsi keep getting loads of calls from 0161 850 2841, 2842, 2051 and 2815. i picked up once and it was just some weird automated message. since then, i havent answered but they still ring me like 2 to 4 times daily. its super annoying!2 yearsReceived a call from this number four times without any voicemails left. I've decided to block them now.2 yearsWithin just one day, I received five calls from different numbers, even though I keep blocking them. They’re all about some energy service. I've told them numerous times to take me off their list under my GDPR rights, but they just hang up or act like they don’t hear me. Proper frustrating.2 yearsSo annoying! I always just ignore and block these calls, but they keep switching to different numbers. It’s always someone from the Energy Advice Centre. If they claim they’re covering your local area, ask them to give the exact postcode. They never seem to know it!Energy Advice Centre2 yearsGot a call from some energy survey lady who just wouldn’t stop chatting, even after I said I wasn’t bothered. Ended up having to hang up on her. (1 day ago)2 yearsI just didn’t pick up since they didn’t say who they were. Usually, folks like that don’t bother leaving a voicemail anyway.2 yearsHeads up... watch out!2 yearsGot a recorded message about home insulation, not a human.2 yearsThey rang saying they were working for an energy provider and claimed to have carried out loft and insulation surveys in my area. When I told them they should check properly before ringing me, he asked what I meant. I explained my property actually has a flat roof, so loft checks wouldn’t apply. After that, he just hung up. This number has called me three times over the past few days with the same spiel. I've decided to block it now. +44 161 850 2841Submit Your Own Report (0161 850 2841)
