2 yearsThis number 01618502847 keeps ringing me but I never pick up calls from strangers. I saw what others said about it and decided to block it for good.2 yearsWhat a miserable scammer, truly pathetic.2 yearsIf I don’t know the number, I never pick up. Straight to block.2 yearsEnergy consultant called, said I was the homeowner... hung up straight away when I questioned them.2 yearsI keep getting calls from the same number, yet there’s never a word spoken on the other end. Quite odd, don’t you think?2 yearsI've just received my second call in under thirty minutes, this time from a different number. The message was supposedly from an energy company. I’m not buying it, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number! Honestly, I just want them to disappear already!2 yearsReceived a call claiming to be from an energy provider. I didn't pick up, but they left a voicemail! It's getting rather tiresome, as this is the second time in half an hour, and from different numbers! I’ve gone ahead and blocked both of them.2 yearsTotal scam, don’t trust it.2 yearsJunk calls.2 yearsGot called 3 times already from pretty much the same number, just the last 4 digits changed. Decided to block it after checking out some stuff on who-called.co.uk before.2 yearsBeen blocking every second day now.2 yearsGot a call from a bloke named Chris claiming he was an energy consultant near me. When I asked him to be more specific about the area, he just ended the call.Chris2 yearsEnergy company rip off, better to just ignore the call.2 yearsDon't pick up calls from numbers I don't know. Getting constant calls from energy rip-off artists every day.2 yearsKeeps ringing about some free loft insulation check, saying they’re “in my area”. Thankfully I’ve blocked the number now.2 yearsTotally a scam.2 yearsThis call’s a total scam about saving energy.2 yearsGot another random call out of the blue, luckily my phone usually blocks these but thanks to everyone sharing info here I found out it's an energy scam. I've blocked the number now.2 years01618502847 I never pick up calls from numbers I don’t know. Please stop ringing me!!!!!!2 yearsSeems like just another dodgy energy scam.2 yearsGot a call about loft insulation and energy savings asking my age and stuff… didn’t trust it, so straight to blocked!2 yearsDefinitely a scam, I just blocked the number.2 yearsI couldn’t get through, but judging by other calls from similar numbers, it seemed like that classic “local energy advisor in your area” scam.2 yearsThey said they were from some “local entry service” or something, asking if I’m the homeowner. I’m only 19 and clearly not in charge of the house. I told them to take me off their list and asked if they enjoy ripping off hardworking folks. They just cut me off straight away :)2 yearsCheers to everyone who flagged this scammer. I've gone ahead and blocked the number now.2 yearsGot two calls yesterday and one today - and I’m not even from Manchester. Didn’t answer, gonna block the number now.Manchester2 yearsTotally a scam.2 yearsGot a call from someone doing a survey about energy around here.Energy2 yearsGot a random call on 28th May 2024 around 5:50 PM to my MP3 player that’s only used for emergencies, not even a proper phone. No one’s got my number saved, so how on earth did they find it? Then on the 29th May at 10:43 AM, another call popped up from 01618502821, which looks like the same company. Really wonder how they got hold of this number too.2 yearsGot another call from one of those "energy firms" using 0161850 followed by different digits. Every time I block one number, they ring me from a new 0161850**** line, they must have loads of them. I’m in Manchester and 0161 is a local area code, so at first it sounds legit, but then I clock the 850 bit and realise it’s a con. Plenty of older folks here might get tricked, thinking it’s someone they know. These companies need to stop scamming people like this!Manchester2 yearsGot a scam call from a voice with an English accent, just some generic chat about energy stuff in a building. No matter what you say, it just replies with "right we have the correct details," like it's all pre-recorded expecting your answer. Could be really harmful for elderly or vulnerable folks since it sounds quite legit and local. Watch out for it!2 yearsChris, calling himself an energy advisor. I can't see how this is supposed to be TPS compliant. Absolute rubbish.Chris2 yearsJust received my inaugural cold call today from some overly chatty number hailing from Manchester. They didn’t bother leaving a message, which would have clarified their identity and potentially supported my ongoing concerns regarding the ‘improvement consultant’ who is currently facing scrutiny at my workplace for breaching data protection laws and a myriad of other unpleasant behaviours, including bullying and harassment. Honestly, maybe they ought to think twice before even picking up the phone! I’ve since added them to the block list.Manchester2 yearsHad my first unsolicited call of the day from a Manchester area code, way too casual for a stranger. They didn’t even leave a voicemail or any details, which might have helped with ongoing issues regarding a colleague being looked into for breaching data privacy and other serious misconduct like harassment. Number's blocked now.2 yearsThis is the 4th time they rung in just 2 weeks. I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number after reading what others said here.2 yearsHello, I received a phone call from this number, but I wasn’t able to take it as I’m deaf. However, I believe I've been a victim of a scam, and I’m uncertain whether this call is related to it: +234 706 672 1608. If anyone has information regarding this number, I would greatly appreciate your assistance, as I am currently collaborating with the police about this matter. Cheers, Miss C ShawCheersC Shaw2 yearsMy other half picked up, but they just cut the call straight away.2 years+44 161 850 2847 Got a call from someone claiming to be Chris, a local energy advisor nearby.

It's ringing my mobile about 5 times daily. If you get a call from it, make sure you report it to Action Fraud.
