Phone number ☎️ 01865509560 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance number linked to aggressive cold calls, often from a caller named "Alex" claiming to be a local energy advisor or working for an insulation company. Callers frequently ask if the recipient is a homeowner and quickly hang up when challenged or questioned about their identity, company, or source of information. Many calls involve misleading or scripted messages about energy savings, loft insulation, medical alerts, or government schemes. The majority of users identify these calls as scams or telemarketing attempts, with some being silent or leaving no voicemail. Call recipients commonly recommend ignoring or blocking the number and advise against engaging, as the calls often breach the Telephone Preference Service (TPS) regulations and can be harassing or suspicious in nature.
Reports on phone number 01865509560
5 yearsI'm honestly fed up with these #CENSORED# constantly ringing my landline - they make up nearly 90% of the calls I get these days. It's always the same nonsense about being an energy company, then they ask if I own the house and cut off the call when I don't reply. Just got another one recently but now they've switched phone providers and show up as "International" instead of a proper number, probably so I can’t report them to the ICO like before. This has gone too far - I’m seriously considering getting rid of my landline altogether just to avoid them.ICO6 yearsThis number’s been ringing me a few times lately claiming they’re from BT and there’s some dodgy stuff happening on my broadband. Obviously a scam because I’m not even a BT customer! The only shady thing is whatever they’re trying on my phone. If you hit '1' like they ask, it just hangs up straight away. Avoid that call for sure.BT6 yearsThey started off asking if I was the homeowner, then rambled on about some piece they read in the Telegraph. Apparently, they were calling for a government scheme about issues with rock wool and fiberglass insulation. I lost interest pretty quick and just ended the call.Telegraph6 yearsGot a call the other day, left a voicemail asking if I was the homeowner, sounded pretty annoyed too. Didn’t he notice he ended up with my recorded reply? Strange!6 yearsGot a call from some bloke trying to sell home insulation. When I asked if he was actually trying to sell something, he just buzzed off and cut the call. Blocked him straight away.6 yearsRang them two times. There was nothing but silence, so I decided to disconnect the call.6 yearsGot a call earlier but I didnt pick up. They never left a voicemail either so I blocked the number straight away. If they wanted us to answer, they should at least say who they are. We got call screening on to avoid answering dodgy calls like this. Seems quite suspicious to me.6 yearsDidn’t pick up since I had no idea who it was - just ended up blocking the number.6 yearsSome bloke named Alex gave me a ring about my energy supply but just assumed I owned the house. When I asked where he got my details from, he hung up on me. Fred A.AlexFred A6 yearsI got a call from someone named Alex about my energy provider, asking if I was the home owner. I said it would depend on what he needed, and then he just hung up on me.Alex6 yearsWhen I picked up, there was a bit of silence first, then Alex said he was an energy advisor and asked if I owned the place. I told him I don’t own the house and right after that, the call just cut off.Alex6 yearsGot a call I didn’t answer today, judging by what everyone’s saying, sounds like it’s that annoying Alex again. Best steer clear.Alex6 yearsGot a ring from someone named Alex claiming to be an energy consultant. He assumed I owned the house, but when I set him straight that I don’t, he just hung up on me.Alex6 yearsA polite young bloke called, claiming to be from a nearby energy firm. The moment I mentioned I’m signed up with the Telephone Preference Service (TPS), he just hung up on me, no sorry or anything. Quite rude really.Telephone Preference ServiceTPS6 yearsI told Alex that his attempt at being a Cat’s Meat Man was pretty rubbish. Seriously, it was like trying to squeeze blood from a stone. Not impressed at all!Alex6 yearsA bloke who said his name was Alex, claiming to be an energy advisor, rang me. He asked if I was the owner of the house, I said yes, then the call just stopped.Alex6 yearsThey kept insisting I was the owner of the house, but when I said I wasn’t, I just hung up on them.6 yearsI didn’t answer because there was no voicemail and no one spoke. Looks like it’s a scam, which others in the comments have already pointed out.6 yearsGot a call from someone named Alex claiming to be local energy advisor, going on about loft insulation rules. Wasn't something I asked for.Alex6 yearsGot a call from someone calling themselves "Alex" claiming to be from my energy company. They asked if I owned the shop I’m at, and as soon as I said no, the call went dead. Sounds like a robocall to me.Alex6 yearsA guy rang about life insurance but I just let it go to answerphone, didn’t even get to talk to him.6 yearsSo this bloke Alex called me about some energy deal for my place. I asked if I'd actually asked him to ring and told him I'm not one for cold calls, then just hung up. He actually called me back straight away but I didn’t bother picking up the second time.Alex6 yearsGot a call from a guy named Alex about spray foam insulation for my attic. When I tried to ask something a bit technical, he claimed he’d just started and his surveyor could help with that. I then asked where they found my phone number, and he said it was from some list of folks who supposedly got government grants for loft insulation - never had one myself. I told him I wanted to check things out on my own and would get back if interested, so asked for the company name and contact details. Guess what? He just hung up on me. Feels like a total scam to me.Alex6 yearsPhone rang but when it went to answerphone, they just cut off. Feels like it was one of those dodgy scam calls to me.6 yearsSome bloke called from something like the Pre Planning Group and said he was happy to reach me. He asked if I had life insurance and I said yes. Then he said something like, 'Glad to know you’re not throwing cash away on life insurance!' Bit weird, so I quickly realised it was one of those automated calls that responds to what you say. I ended it there and then. Pretty sure it’s a scam.Pre Planning Group6 yearsSo, got a call from one of those insulation grant scammers today. Thankfully it went straight to voicemail and I didn't even pick up.6 yearsGot a ring from this number claiming to be the "Pre-Planning Group". They asked if I was the owner of the house. I paused a bit, not sure if it was an automated call, so I asked them who exactly this Pre-Planning Group was, and then they just cut me off. I've blocked the number now.Pre - Planning Group6 yearsAnswered the call, but there was absolutely nobody on the line!6 yearsIf you don't recognise the number, I'd advise against answering the call. Honestly, if it were something pressing, they'd likely leave a voicemail or reach out through different channels. Personally, I believe this is the best strategy to deal with those callers.6 yearsI received a call from someone claiming to be Alex, representing an energy advisory firm based in Oxford. When I inquired about how he obtained my number, given that we're on the ex-directory list, he merely reiterated his previous statement. After I pressed him again regarding the source of my number, he abruptly ended the call. Quite dodgy, if you ask me!AlexOxford6 yearsI received a call from someone claiming to be an energy consultant, and when I informed them that I wasn't keen on their services, they promptly hung up on me. Quite impolite, to say the least!6 yearsI always make it a point to filter my calls. If I answer but there’s just silence or they don't bother to leave a voicemail, I simply disregard them. I received a call earlier today, the 17th of December, but there was no message left behind.6 yearsStandard drivel from yet another energy firm, I see. Quite evidently, your number has ended up on their automated call roster. These clowns seem to give little thought to the Telephone Preference Service. If you've got a spare moment, why not have a bit of a laugh and squander their time? The longer you keep them chatting, the less time they'll have to bother someone else!6 yearsI had a missed call from this number earlier on today, and judging by all the feedback left here, it’s likely dodgy Alex again. Best to steer clear of this one!Alex6 yearsThese days, I just don't pick up on numbers that seem a bit odd. With all the dodgy calls going around, it’s better to steer clear. Honestly, it’s super risky, so I’d say just give ’em a miss.6 yearsSo this bloke Alex, says he's an energy advisor around here, called me up to check if I owned the house. When I asked him where he got my details, he just ended the call straight away. Weird behaviour if you ask me.Alex6 yearsI usually don’t pick up calls from weird numbers cause these days there’s loads of dodgy ones going about. It’s better to just block or ignore them all, honestly, can’t trust any of it. Could be real risky stuff.6 yearsGot a call from a bloke named Christian about some medical alert necklace or something. When I tried to ask a few questions, it just kept repeating itself like one of those voicemail recordings, so I just ended the call. Felt pretty dodgy to me.6 yearsGot a call from a number that looked legit, but ended up being totally fake, all about some house stuff. Felt dodgy right away.6 yearsSome bloke called me saying he was the local energy advisor and asked if I was the homeowner. Before I could say much, he just hung up on me. Pretty strange behaviour if you ask me.Alex6 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were an "energy advisor" and asked if I owned the house. As soon as I told them I didn’t, they just ended the call. Quite weird!6 yearsGot a call off some bloke claiming to be an energy adviser from a local company or something. When I tried to find out which firm he was with, he just dodged it and began asking about the fibreglass insulation supposedly up in my attic. Tried to pin him down again on his company, but he just shut me out and ended the chat!6 yearsI got a call from 01865509560, and the bloke claimed he was with some free medical alert service from the government.6 yearsI got a call from someone who said they were an energy consultant for my region called Alex. When I wouldn't confirm if I owned the house, he just hung up on me.Alex6 yearsThis so called medical alert service kept calling over and over. I couldn’t tell if it was a real person or just some automated voice. Really annoying.6 yearsI got a call from someone saying loft insulation isn’t good anymore and they suggested spraying something on instead. It seemed a bit off to me.6 yearsSomeone rang me up claiming I qualified for a free medical alarm because of a new scheme for anyone over 50. They said they were calling from Oxford. When I looked it up online, loads of scams about medical alarms popped up in the US, but I couldn't find much about the UK. Still, I'm pretty certain this call was a trick.OxfordUSUK6 yearsGot a ring from someone claiming to be from Medical Alert. They said they were following up on a signal from an "alert" gadget. But it was obvious they were making it up as they kept speaking over me after I told them they’d got the wrong number, pressing me about whether I was unwell or had mobility issues.Medical Alert6 yearsGot a call from some bloke called Alex giving energy tips, but honestly he didn't have a clue what he was talking about. Felt proper harassed by the whole thing. This kind of hassle really should be put to an end.Alex6 yearsGot a call from this number and some guy asked if I owned the place, then he just suddenly hung up on me.6 yearsGot this robo call about some government deal saying I could save loads of cash or something, kept pushing to press 1 for info then 9 to opt out. So annoying! Just blocked the number, done with it!6 yearsPhone went dead silent then they just cut me off. Blocked straight away.6 yearsThey asked if I owned the house, but then just hung up on me.6 yearsReceived a call from someone purporting to be a local energy consultant, yet they didn't bother to share their name or the company they represented. They inquired if the homeowner was available, and when I probed about their purpose, there was an awkward silence on the other end. I decided to hang up.6 yearsIt was rather peculiar, wasn't it? I picked up and there was just this eerie silence on the other end. Not a single word was said...6 yearsClaimed to be representing the "Insulation Advisory Line". Attempted to persuade me into consenting for a survey regarding extra loft insulation. I struggled to glean any substantial details from him. He mentioned that a supervisor would ring me to provide further information, and then abruptly ended the call.Insulation Advisory Line6 yearsJust like the last post I saw - received a call from someone purporting to be a local home energy advisor. However, when I probed for his name and a bit more detail about the purpose of his call, he abruptly disconnected. Quite suspicious, if you ask me!6 yearsIt seems there’s someone peddling what appears to be energy-efficient insulation - yet I can’t shake the suspicion that it might be a bit dodgy, perhaps linked to that new green energy initiative? Just a thought, but I’d tread carefully!6 yearsWhat an absolute nuisance these calls are! I've been receiving a barrage of them as well, especially one from a "Tom" who supposedly represents the government and is on about loft insulation grants. It’s all rather tiresome, isn’t it? I can't help but wonder why those in charge aren't making an effort to hunt down these scam artists and holding them accountable. They certainly deserve to be put away somewhere far from decent folk!Tom6 yearsDidn’t get a response.6 yearsThis number keeps ringing through, claiming to be "Alex", your friendly neighbourhood energy advisor. Strangely enough, the moment you question them, they just cut off the line. It's quite baffling that they're not taking the Telephone Preference Service seriously either.Alex6 yearsNo message was left. Seemed like it might be a scam call.6 yearsThis number rang me too, but I suspected it was a scam and they didn't bother to leave a voicemail.6 yearsAlex, who claims to be an energy consultant, called again-this marks his fourth attempt to reach out this year. I put down the phone in the cloakroom and let him chatter on endlessly.Alex6 yearsI received a call from a company that offers loft insulation advice. The manager promised to get back to me with a quote after a surveyor was scheduled to come round tomorrow. However, when I asked about the pricing, he seemed rather vague and said it would depend on whether my loft was appropriate for the spraying eaves technique. I made it clear that I wasn’t interested, and instead of trying to discuss it further, he abruptly hung up on me! What a bunch of time-wasters!6 yearsHere we go again-another unknown number pops up, so I decided to let the answerphone take the call. Surprise, surprise, no message left! It's really starting to wind me up, to be honest!6 yearsHe introduced himself as being part of the Pre Planning team and inquired whether I owned the property. When I pressed him for details about what exactly he was preplanning, he abruptly hung up.Pre Planning6 yearsThe caller launched into a spiel regarding some government environmental initiative. I cut the conversation short and have filed a complaint with the Telephone Preference Service, given that we’re on the list to avoid marketing calls.Telephone Preference Service6 yearsI’ve no idea who this is, but they were chatting about loft insulation.6 yearsThose pesky cold callers truly are the lowest of the low... Honestly, I reckon a spell in the slammer would be far too lenient for these vile individuals!6 yearsReceived a couple of calls today with nothing but silence on the other end. Quite odd, really.6 yearsReceived three calls this afternoon from someone purporting to be a local energy consultant. They promptly ended the call when I inquired for more information.6 yearsCalled but then just disconnected without uttering a word.6 yearsI reckon my voicemail message gave them quite the fright! Being part of the FCA regulated firm, I always make it clear that every call is recorded. It’s no wonder they vanished!FCA6 yearsI was met with silence on the other end-possibly because a bloke picked up? This number is listed with the Telephone Preference Service, meaning they’re flouting the regulations by calling from a UK line.UK6 yearsI received a call, but when I picked up, there was complete silence on the other end. Quite odd, really!6 yearsDodgy Energy Insulation Tactics! I'm constantly getting calls from this character who keeps switching names-first it was Matthew, then Alex, and who knows what else. It's always the same voice, but the numbers vary every time. It’s becoming a real bother, I'm thoroughly fed up with his incessant ringing. If you get a call from him, best just to hang up!MatthewAlexSubmit Your Own Report (01865 509560)
