Some note automated messages or no response upon answering, further indicating a probable scam. Official sources and local councils usually do not endorse these unsolicited checks.

3 yearsTold me it was Vodafone calling.Vodafone6 yearsThis number has rung me a couple of times, but the caller hangs up straight away. I reckon it’s a scam, so I’ve blocked it now. What’s odd is when I looked up this Staines area code, it also came up with a site where you can rent phone numbers for just under £2 a month. Seems like the authorities should really take a closer look at this! StarmanStaines6 yearsGot a call from 01784817684 and it was all nonsense about some “engineers” coming round tomorrow. The woman on the line had such a thick northern accent and spoke so quickly, I could barely get what she was on about. Didn’t seem like those “engineers” knew much either! Something felt off, so I hung up and looked up the number here - definitely glad I did.6 yearsI picked up a call and they actually said my name right, then started talking about some National Home Energy Survey. She rattled off a question so fast, and with a thick northern accent, I couldn’t really catch what she was asking. But I did hear something about who owns the property. When I asked about that, she quickly said she’d remove my details from their records. I told her I never share info over the phone, and she just cut me off straight away! If someone calls out of the blue asking for info, just hang up immediately!Home Energy6 yearsI didn’t pick up when they rang, but after looking at the reviews I noticed I’ve got this call earlier too. It’s something about an energy survey that supposedly ends up costing £60, but they say because they’re nearby they’ll do it free. I was about to fall for it, and I usually don't fall for scams easily.6 yearsSpoke to a young woman with a northern accent who said she was carrying out energy checks nearby. She mentioned a website called [#]safehouseenviromental[###], said it was connected to a deferred Winter Warmth programme, and insisted there were no sales involved. She also said it’s not the same as the usual EPC you get when selling a house, but she couldn’t really explain what exactly it was for, which made me a bit wary. I couldn’t track down the site anywhere either. Bit heartbreaking that folks are so desperate for jobs, they end up working for places like this.6 yearsClassic sneaky sales trick, that one. Calling it a National Energy Check sounds like something official, like it’s run by the government, but it’s just a ploy to get you on the line. The people behind these scams clearly don’t have a shred of empathy - bit like they never learnt how to be decent humans. The whole political vibe nowadays kind of lets this slide, since they reckon any business is a good business, no matter how dodgy.6 yearsHad an energy efficiency survey done by these guys, and honestly, the staff and surveyor were super helpful. Definitely a top-notch company. Would give them a solid 10 out of 10!7 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be from one of the six main energy providers. They asked about what kind of property I have, if it's got double glazing, insulation, and whether I'd be home today. Turned out they were actually local thieves checking out the neighbourhood. I ended up reporting it all to the police.7 yearsSome bloke claimed to be from National Energy, but when I asked what he wanted, the whole thing seemed dodgy. I just ended the call straight away.7 yearsI just received an automated voicemail saying they’d tried to ring me before and that they’d be in touch again. I checked out their site, which looked really legit and mentioned they’re a family-run company. Oddly enough, the number on their site isn’t the same as the one that called me, so it might be some dodgy person pretending to be them. If they call again, I’m definitely telling them to shove off!7 yearsDefinitely a scam. I scheduled a meeting with them but luckily they never showed. After seeing the reviews here, I’m glad I didn’t waste more time!7 yearsReceived a call today, dated the 1st of September, 2020. They left a voicemail, although it wasn't anything urgent. They mentioned they might attempt to get in touch again at a later time.7 yearsGot a call from this number earlier today. They were talking about some sort of energy inspection or whatever, told me it would be over £60 for some certificate the government’s making mandatory. Proper pushy, wanted to pop round this week. They knew my address and postcode straight away. At first I almost believed them, but it wasn’t right for me. Told them this week doesn’t work, then they said they’d call me again next week before hanging up real quick. I thought it was a double glazing thing at first. Sounds like they’re just chasing leads and will say anything to get you.7 yearsGot calls on two separate occasions supposedly for an energy survey from some big energy firm. They wanted to set up a visit to my place this Monday. Surprisingly, they already had my full name and address and asked if I was living by myself. I'm 73 and a widow, so maybe they figured I'd be an easy mark?7 yearsGot a call claiming it was from the government, offering an energy survey supposedly backed by the main six energy firms. I clocked it was a scam pretty quick when they said both me and my partner had to be home together. That’s a classic trick you see with timeshare pitches and double glazing salespeople. Basically, they're just trying to get inside your home so they can push loads of energy-saving stuff on you - things like new window frames, wall or loft insulation, draught excluders and the lot. Stay alert, don’t get caught out!7 yearsI got some dodgy callers wasting my time rambling on about energy stuff, total scammers.7 yearsTold them straight away that I’m on the TPS list. They acted like they didn’t even know what that is! Totally convinced they’re just dodgy callers!7 yearsJust like last time, I ended the call straight away.7 yearsIt was clearly a scam call claiming to be from National Energy Check. Totally dodgy!National Energy Check7 yearsJust like others have said, they were super aggressive. They kind of forced me to set up a meeting and before I even got the chance to call and cancel, another person rang me to confirm it. Luckily, I managed to cancel afterwards.7 yearsHad a call come through today at ten o'clock and five minutes. Upon picking up, I was met with nothing but silence. Quite frustrating, I must say! It's about time we put a stop to these automated nuisances, especially considering how unsettling they can be for our older folks and those who are on their own. Surely, there's got to be a way to curb this sort of thing with the technology we have nowadays.7 yearsThe moment I picked up, the answerphone started, and a voice with an English accent asked if I was Mrs so-and-so. I said yeah, and then they just ended the call. My answerphone recorded the whole thing.7 yearsReceived a call that left an automated message. As someone who’s ex-directory and enrolled with the Telephone Preference Service, I shouldn't really be receiving such calls, if I'm honest.Telephone Preference Service7 yearsBooked a slot with them but no one turned up. Honestly, I was a bit iffy about it all along.7 yearsWe weren’t home when they rang and no voicemail was left. I decided to block the number after reading the reviews from others.7 yearsReceived a call on my home phone at 10:52 on Friday, 16th August 2019, claiming to be from an energy firm, urging me to return the call.7 yearsI set up a meeting with this firm, but after looking into them, I started doubting if it was legit or a con. So, I got in touch with the local council, and they suggested I reach out to Action Survey. Turns out, Action Survey hadn’t heard of any company offering free tips on energy saving. I passed them the phone number, and they said they'd look into it further.Action Surey7 yearsI ended up agreeing to have someone come round (seemed legit and I wasn’t really paying much attention), but later on I looked into it and started to think it was a bit sketchy. When I rang them back, I got an answerphone with an American accent at first, then got connected to a bloke from England who I had a chat with. Once I found out they needed access inside the house, I decided to call it off. Fingers crossed they don’t bother me again.7 yearsGot a voicemail from 'Energy Estimates' sayin no ones availble to take my call and they'll call back later. Seriously? You ring me then just leave a recorded msg? Can't imagine that's a great way to win customers! What a joke!7 yearsGot a call off some lad from up North claiming to be from "National Energy Check". He knew my name but only had my old address from ages ago. To me, anything with a name like that just sounds a bit iffy straight away. Plus, having an outdated address made me even more wary. It was unsolicited too, which I reckon is a clear GDPR breach, so I'm about to report it to the ICO.NorthNational Energy CheckICO7 yearsIt felt dodgy, they hung up as soon as I picked up the phone.7 yearsMy old neighbour got roped into booking an appointment and ended up totally stressed out. I checked out the National Energy Assessment website, and their phone actually went through and someone picked up. They ended up cancelling the appointment, but honestly, the site seems fishy, like it’s all a setup. The pressure they put on was unbelievable. Definitely a scam in my eyes.National Energy Assessment7 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be with National Energy Check. They mentioned some work supposedly happening on my street and asked if I owned the house. When I said I’d never heard of them, they rushed into some sort of explanation, but I told them no thanks. They kept jabbering even as I hung up the phone.National Energy Check7 yearsGot a call from a recorded message saying they wanted to do an energy check at my place. Felt a bit dodgy, so I didn’t bother replying. Sounds like one of those automated things trying to get info or sell stuff. Wouldn’t trust it too much.7 yearsI'm fed up with these scam calls. Had a bad experience before, it really messes with your head and makes you anxious all the time!7 yearsGot a call from someone claiming they were with National Energy Check, said they were doing work nearby and asked if we’d be around for some kind of “assessment.” I just told them we’d be home but not interested. Ended up reporting it to the police.National Energy Check7 yearsThe moment I picked up the answering machine, they just cut off. Definitely can’t trust them.7 yearsSome bloke called me claiming to be from National Energy Check and said they had work going on nearby. When he asked if I owned the house, I just told him I wasn’t interested and ended the call.National Energy Check7 yearsCalled an elderly and vulnerable person on the 17th of July at 11:33.7 yearsGot a call around 2.30pm today from a local Staines number. The person spoke with a very English accent but oddly said sorry for calling so early in the morning! They knew my name and street, claimed they were doing some work tomorrow for one of the 'big six' energy firms nearby. They promised a free check and energy performance certificate, saying my provider would offer a discount if I went along with it. I’m highly suspicious, feels like a pushy attempt to get into my home. Wouldn’t trust it at all.7 yearsMy husband picked up the phone first time, and when he asked who was calling, the line just went dead. They’ve been phoning every day since then, but I’ve finally put a block on their number.7 yearsTotal rip off!7 yearsI told them my real surname, but when I asked who it was, their answer was just a mumble I couldn’t make out. After that, they went on to say they wanted to update me about something going on at my actual street.7 yearsI told them my real surname. When I asked who they were, their answer was totally unclear. Then they went on to say they just wanted to update me about something happening on the same street I live on.Submit Your Own Report (01784 817684)
