7 yearsI've been getting calls from this number non-stop. I don’t need any home repairs at all. Apparently, the firm behind it has a massive £90k fine for unsolicited calls. How come they’re still allowed to carry on? Someone really ought to report them.7 yearsSo, these guys working from home are selling solar panels. I looked into the company and found out they’re getting shut down because they haven't paid their tax bills. Just a heads up, watch out for them.7 yearsThey keep ringing me, but the caller ID just says 'no caller ID', so I thought it might be something urgent. Turns out it’s the same company every time. They’re really relentless with their calls!7 yearsNot sure what their name was, but they came across really pushy and quite intense.8 yearsAbout five years back, I ended up using this company for some work and it’s been a right pain since. Trying to contact them when stuff went south was almost impossible. No matter what I did, they just wouldn’t let go. Honestly, stay away from Hometeck, they’re trouble.HomeTech9 yearsToday at 1:03pm on 18/08/2017, I got a call from a Middlesbrough number (01642 2049280). I had seen several missed calls with no message from this number before but hadn’t answered. The person on the phone asked for me by my name and if I was the homeowner, but I didn’t give any info. The woman said her name was Jennifer and she was with a company called Home Tech. She told me about a government scheme offering free or reduced price double glazing replacements for home owners. I explained that I rent from the council and so didn’t qualify. She then just ended the call.MiddlesbroughJenniferHome Tech10 yearsIt just told me to leave a message.10 yearsThey disconnected as soon as they were faced with my phone's caller ID verification prompt, which asked them to "state your name." I've gone ahead and blocked the number.10 yearsI answered, but there was absolutely no one speaking at the other side.10 yearsI got a call and they asked if it was me, so I said yes, and then all they did was go “yeeeah” and just hung up on me! Weird!10 yearsI got a call where someone was looking for a Mr Wilson. I told them he doesn’t live at this number, and then they just hung up on me without saying anything else.Wilson10 yearsI’ve had a rather frustrating experience with this outfit that seems to think peddling solar panels funded by the government is their calling. Even if you manage to block this particular number, they just pop up again with a different one, as relentless as they come. It's infuriating how they blatantly ignore requests to remove you from their calling list. Honestly, it’s like talking to a brick wall. One of the individuals, rather amusingly named BIFF, has even come knocking on my door, despite my clearly marked notice indicating that cold callers are not welcome. It’s all rather maddening, to say the least!BIFF10 yearsThis firm appears to be a government-subsidised provider of solar panels. They bombard you with calls throughout the day, often switching numbers, predominantly beginning with 01642, making it near-impossible to block them. Their sales representatives seem to lack basic courtesy and intelligence, even showing up at your doorstep despite having clearly displayed a "no cold callers" notice. I've made numerous attempts to request the removal of my number, expressing my disinterest, yet they respond with a rude hang-up and continue to hound me relentlessly. If you're part of this establishment, I'd suggest you find yourself a proper job that requires some real effort. - Caller: Solar Panel Sales (Government Funded) MiddlesbroughCallerSolar Panel SalesFundedMiddlesbrough11 yearsI've been inundated with calls from this particular number, and every time I answer, it's just silence on the other end. It's becoming rather bothersome! I wish they'd just cut it out!11 yearsWe've been receiving calls from this number at all hours of the day. Each time, there's no one on the line, just a cacophony of background chatter that suggests it might be from a call centre. Given that my wife has a disability, these persistent calls have started to really trouble us.11 yearsReceiving unsolicited calls about home improvements, even though I'm registered with the Telephone Preference Service, is becoming rather tiresome. I tried to call back, but it just goes straight to voicemail. Here’s hoping that the new regulations actually put a stop to this nonsense!Telephone Preference Service11 yearsI've been receiving phone calls five times a day, each one sticking around for at least 45 seconds or so. Quite persistent, if you ask me!Submit Your Own Report (01642 049280)
