1 yearGot a ring about a question I had regarding Windows, the bloke was really polite.2 yearsA firm called 1st Home Improvements contacted me about double glazing. Just thought I'd share in case anyone else gets a call from them.3 yearsGot a ring back about an earlier chat for double glazing that I wasn't too sure about, they followed up on the appointment we talked about.3 yearsI received five calls from this number within just ten minutes! Not a single voice message was left. If it were genuinely urgent, surely they would have taken the time to leave a message?3 yearsI’ve been informed that they’re offering energy vouchers and are keen to provide you with a quote, especially since your windows are a decade old.4 yearsGot a call from a woman named Charmaine saying she was ringing from 'First Homes'. She started by asking if I was Mrs X, and when I said no, she immediately wanted to speak to Mr X. That was a huge red flag straight away, clearly a scam.CharmaineFirst HomesX4 yearsI chose not to answer since the number was unfamiliar to me. Typically, I make it a point to verify calls like these, especially when they don’t bother to leave a voicemail. Quite likely a nuisance or a scam, to be honest.4 yearssomeone came round to my place, said it was no fuss but now the phone won't stop ringing. claimed it was some government plan and promised £200 off every window. i told them i don't want to get into debt. then they said if boris is footing the bill, fair enough. turns out he isn't, so no new windows for me.Boris4 yearsReceived a phone call but couldn't take it since I was behind the wheel.5 yearsGot a call from a really polite woman claiming to be with some green energy initiative. She asked me about the age of my windows and doors, plus if they had any condensation issues. Since they’re over a decade old, I supposedly qualified for some green energy grants. She offered a free quote that'd be valid for two years. Seemed like a sales chat from a home improvement firm so I just politely declined and hung up.5 yearsThe call disconnected the moment I picked up. I have a feeling it might be some sort of scam or phishing attempt.5 yearsThis particular phone number is associated with a group of con artists. I decided to return their call and was met with an onslaught of verbal insults for the audacity of requesting they refrain from contacting me. Ridiculous, really!5 yearsI got a call from someone looking for a person who’s not even at my place. When I tried to call back to sort it out, they ended up shouting at me. Pretty awful experience.5 yearsEnvironmentally-related con artists. Make sure to flag their activities. They’ll also hurl insults your way if you dare to request they stop ringing you.5 yearssome random caller assumed i was mrs xxx just coz of my partners last name. wouldnt say why they were ringing. definitely felt like a scam to me.5 yearsThey keep ringing non stop, it's sooo annoying!5 yearsGot a call from some company called First Homes, said they’d pay cash for old windows through some government thing. Turned out to just be a sales trick, nothing legit. Beware!First Homes5 yearsYesterday, we received calls on two separate mobiles, 07918876524 and 07977990009, both about grants and home renovations. We never asked for these calls. The first call was answered by my husband, the second by me. During both calls, they just hung up halfway through the chat. Today, from reading other comments, it seems they're using a landline number 01702842661. They never bother to leave a voicemail either.5 yearsThis double glazing firm is dodgy, and there's absolutely no connection to anything eco-friendly here.5 yearsJust got a call from 01702842661 claiming to be from First Home Improvements. They were pushing new windows and all that, but honestly, it felt dodgy. They kept going on about being eco-friendly, but it seemed pretty misleading. I'd say watch out and don't get caught up in it!First Home Improvements5 yearsI received a couple of calls earlier today. The first one had the area code 01268, and the second one was from 01702 842661. I'm starting to suspect it might be a scam as they claimed to represent Furst Home Improvement. Interestingly, they do have a website, but it still seems a bit dodgy to me.Furst Home Improvement5 yearsI couldn’t confirm the number, but the person on the line claimed to be from a company called First Home and said they handle all the government schemes for green home improvements. First Home does seem legit, but they’re actually a firm that deals with things like double glazing and roof insulation. Feels like they’re just trying to get you to visit their website. I’m on the Telephone Preference Service, so they shouldn’t be ringing me at all. Also, the call showed up as coming from abroad.First HomeTelephone Preference Service6 yearsThis number belongs to First Home Improvements - they’re a legit company. If you’ve recently arranged for new windows or any home work, this is the number they’ll use to get in touch.First Home Improvements6 yearsMy phone keeps buzzing, but I don’t pick up unless I’m sure who’s on the other end. My caller ID shows the name and number, but they never bother to leave a message. It’s happening roughly four times a week now, and it’s getting a bit annoying.6 yearsHas anyone else heard about those government schemes for home repairs? I’m thinking about applying, but not sure what counts as eligible improvements. Like, do they cover stuff like new windows or just essential repairs? Would be great if someone could share their experience!6 yearsI ignored the calls over the past few weeks as they rang a bunch of times but never left a voicemail or anything.6 yearsI got a call about some kind of green incentive, but it sounded like a loan. No thanks, I’m not interested even if they say I don’t have to start paying for a few years.6 yearsThis number has been ringing me incessantly-four times within just a couple of hours! They haven't left a message, and I’ve chosen not to answer. Quite annoying, really.7 yearsI keep receiving calls from this number on a daily basis. It's becoming rather bothersome!Submit Your Own Report (01702 842661)
