There’s gotta be some kinda pay just for making the call, right? Otherwise, what’s the use of annoying people like this?

Had some prat ringing me non-stop about double glazing. Proper pain in the neck. Got really nasty when I told him to quit calling. What a muppet.

I've had this number ring me up a bunch of times. They keep mentioning the right address and pushing double glazing and roof fix ups. Even after telling them I’m not interested, they just keep ringing back non-stop. Really annoying!

Some stranger called me so I just ignored it, didn’t bother picking up.

There was a lot of background noise like you'd hear in a call centre. The caller said he was from a company called ‘home tech’ and he actually knew my name. He mentioned they were doing roof inspections on my street - even named the road accurately. I told him I wasn’t interested, thanks. Then he asked if I'd already had a roof check done before, but I just repeated that I wasn’t interested. After that, he hung up. He wasn’t rude or anything, but these sorts of calls are just annoying.

I got a phone call from a bloke named Ross who claimed to represent Glow warm. When I kindly declined his offer, he suddenly erupted with a loud 'F... off!' before abruptly ending the call. Since that rather rude encounter, I’ve been bombarded with three consecutive silent calls from the same number in just half an hour!

I received a call from a chap with a Geordie accent who claimed to be representing Zanussi. He was babbling on about some sort of insurance for my boiler. When I expressed my lack of interest, he abruptly hung up on me. What’s odd is that I feel they’ve tried to get in touch before, albeit under various guises!

I must say, I've encountered a rather unscrupulous lot known as Solar Tech, based at 251 Linthorpe Road in Middlesbrough, TS1 4AT. It seems if you don't make a purchase during their phone calls, they have the audacity to come knocking on your door uninvited! Quite the cheek, don’t you agree?

Got calls from this number 5 times today. At first, it was just silence apart from some background noise like a busy office. Then later they said they were from an energy renewal company, and on a different call they claimed to be from “homecare”. Told them we’re on the TPS list and kept telling them their calls were illegal, warned I’d report them - which I certainly have now.

Had another call from the same number, caught a quick voice with what I reckon was a Geordie or Middlesbrough accent before they twigged I was on the line and hung up sharpish. Honestly, just a load of time wasters. I'm switching to a new phone soon that can block them, can't be bothered putting up with these idiots any longer.

Got a call today at about 1:20pm on 11/03/16 from someone claiming to be with a renewable energy firm checking up on my solar panels after installation. I had a good laugh and told them no way, I don’t even have solar panels. They insisted, “It is, sunshine, it definitely is.” I didn’t bother arguing and hung up. With my broken ankle keeping me stuck at home, this has kinda become an entertaining way to pass the time dealing with these muppets. Most just hang up when I challenge them, but I have to admit I quite enjoy the ones who keep trying.

This woman claimed she was representing some energy savings firm, but I couldn't locate any info about that company anywhere online. She's called me a few times, always looking for a Mrs Kitchin.

Got a call from a double glazing company trying to sell me discounted replacement windows, said if mine were older than 10 years. I told the bloke, John, I was on the TPS and asked him to take my number off their list. He just ended the call straight away.

I've been receiving calls from this number just like countless others. It's always some rough-voiced chap alongside a woman, and somehow they know my name. When I tell them I’m not interested in their calls, they just hang up without a care. I’m beginning to think that the next time they ring, I might resort to a loud, sharp whistle to get my point across - what are your thoughts on that?

I highly recommend you consider a BT phone blocker; I've just had one fitted myself and it's absolutely brilliant!

They keep ringing my number, despite me requesting numerous times that they cease their calls. It's quite frustrating!

Today, I received an unsolicited call from this number. A lady with a noticeable Middlesbrough accent introduced herself as representing The Energy Reduction Company and was attempting to persuade me to purchase solar panels. Oddly enough, I've had a similar experience on this very number before, when they were affiliated with a company called Solar Tech. It seems they've merely altered their name while continuing to peddle the same product. I made it clear that I'm on the Telephone Preference Service list, yet they persist. I've taken the liberty of reporting their antics.

Residing in Scarborough, I've been receiving calls from this number. I came across a comment suggesting that the call might be coming from India. I really hope that’s not the case, as anyone attempting to return the call could end up with a hefty bill.
