Didn’t pick up cause the number was unknown. No message was left. Looked up the number and found several people mention issues when they answered, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked it.

I received a call from this number that I couldn't answer, so I decided to do a bit of research online. I came across numerous reports of scams associated with it. Definitely not going to return that call!

Ugh, those insulation fraudsters are such a bother. “True hopes driven by good intentions, for things both beautiful and grand, must have their share of sincere feeling. Yet he dwelt in a harsh world, met with folks who knew no higher code or kinder ways; knowingly, he took in their rough faults and returned his own,” as Wordsworth put it. It’s a nicer way with words than any of these scammers from India could manage, that's for sure.

Beware of loft insulation con artists! They approached me with a promise of a complimentary health and safety assessment of my loft insulation, suggesting it might be responsible for condensation issues and could pose a serious risk.

I'd suggest you simply cut the call and ignore it, as it's nothing more than a sales pitch for loft insulation.

I checked this number here and saw the comments, so I decided to block it. I’ve heard you can reduce these calls by signing up with the Telephone Preference Service on your phone. It won’t stop all the automated calls, but at least it cuts down the marketing ones. So yeah, that sorts out a good chunk of the hassle!

Got a call about checking my home insulation, kept pushing to know if I owned the house. I told them it sounded like spam but they just wouldn't stop. Ended up hanging up. If it was real, surely they’d send something in the post rather than cold calling like that.

Got a voicemail from this number around 9.40 this morning. The bloke on the other end didn’t even clock that he was chatting to my answering machine, said something like “I understand you own the property” and then just cut off. Seriously, if you don’t know the number, best just ignore it because it’s probably some pain in the neck. Phone companies really need to put a stop to this nonsense since they’re the ones handing out these numbers!

Got a call from some bloke named Matthew claiming I had a government grant for loft insulation. Told him that info was wrong since I never applied for anything like that. He kept pushing and wouldn’t accept my denial, getting a bit too forceful. Had no choice but to hang up on him while he was still talking.

I received a call regarding renewable energy, with the person claiming to be the head of the household. I asked them for my name, and instead of answering, they told me to go ahead. I responded by saying I already know my name and insisted they should inform me what it is. At that point, they fell silent, so I decided to end the conversation and said goodbye.

Today, my home phone received a call from this number. It's rather odd, as my number isn’t publicly listed, so I'm baffled as to how they managed to get hold of it. There was silence on the other end, and after roughly fifteen seconds, they simply disconnected. Quite perplexing!
