01865509560 Summary (Read all comments)

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.

I'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.

This 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.

They 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.

Got 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.

So 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.

Got 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.

Some 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.

Got 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.

So this bloke said he was Alex from some energy firm in Oxford. I asked him how he got my number since it's not listed anywhere, but he just kept saying the same thing about being from the company. When I asked him once more about where the number came from, he just cut me off and hung up.

I've also had calls from some bloke named 'Tom' saying he’s from the government about loft insulation grants or some rubbish like that.
