3 yearsI picked up the call, but there was no one on the other end. Just a robotic voice that chirped out "Goodbye" before cutting off. Definitely feels like a scam to me!4 yearsMartin claimed it wasn’t a cold call, but I don’t recall agreeing to any chat with him. Then, out of the blue, he just left me hanging on hold!Martin4 yearsMartin said it wasn’t a cold call, but honestly, I don’t recall giving him permission to ring me up. Then, out of nowhere, he just left me on hold!Martin4 yearsHey, it’s Gordon calling claiming to be your local energy advisor. He just asks for your postcode and then hangs up. He’s been ringing me loads this week, it’s getting a bit much.Gordon4 yearsI just had a call that someone picked up and quickly hung up without saying a word.4 yearsGot a call from 01978280266 earlier today, but they didn't bother leaving a message.4 yearsSome bloke rang up wanting to chat about life insurance. Had a quick word with him, then gave him a piece of my mind before hanging up.4 yearsIt’s getting impossible to trust anyone nowadays with all these scam calls going around... You’d think someone, somewhere would step in and sort it out!4 yearsI didn’t pick up the call since they left no voicemail. After reading the comments, I’m relieved I ignored it. So annoying dealing with these callers!4 yearsMy missus got a call from someone called Gordon earlier. She wasn’t able to figure out which company he was representing. He was pretty short with her, to be honest. She asked him to ring back in about 20 minutes when I’d be around. We’re based down in Kent. Fingers crossed he calls again, I’m all set.GordonKent4 yearsIt was an energy con for sure. I could hear loads of noise in the back, like they were ringing loads of other phones at the same time.4 yearsDoes Ofcom even bother dealing with this stuff anymore? Feels like they’re just ignoring it completely.Ofcom4 yearsThis number is a total scammer, its maddening! Every morning without fail, just before 8am, it rings and i just ignore it. Today at 5.50pm it popped up again. People say it’s an energy scam but I dont get why they havent blocked it yet! It should be banned by now.4 yearsThey started off quiet, then just said bye and hung up. Pretty sure it was just a spam call.4 yearsI picked up the phone but there was nobody there, just silence.4 yearsI picked up the call and all the bloke did was say "bye" before hanging up.4 yearsGot a call from some spammer today, they were using a new number different from the one I blocked just yesterday. Why aren't the regulators doing anything about this?4 yearsGot a missed call from someone claiming to be Martin... this is the third day running he's been ringing me from different numbers. I've blocked 'em all now, but honestly, it's getting really annoying.Martin4 yearsi've had calls from someone named "jordan" the last three days in a row, claiming to be an energy advisor for around my area in essex. but when i asked him if he knew my actual postcode, he just said no and ended the call straight away. seems like a dodgy scam to me, and possibly risky too.Jordan4 yearsMy phone rang but I didn’t pick up and they didn’t bother to leave a message.4 yearsSomeone called from Wrexham claiming to be an energy adviser called Gordon, but I'm in Essex so that can't be right. Definitely not local!GordonWrexhamEssex4 yearsSo, this bloke Martin has been ringing us constantly lately, I reckon at least four times now. He’s been on about some dodgy energy scam and keeps changing the number he’s calling from. I spotted him before using 01909 212 145 and also 01924 950 062, but today’s call was from yet another number! Proper annoying at this point.Martin4 yearsi got calls on my landline from someone called martin who said he was with an energy firm, number 01978289266. after i asked some questions he just hung up. he’s been calling every day for three days now, with the latest ring today, 24th feb 2022.Martin4 yearsI got an automated call supposedly from some energy provider. Pretty sure it's a con, so best not to get involved with it.4 yearsGot a call about life insurance, total spam as far as I could tell.4 yearsGot a call from this number first thing this morning but they didn’t leave any voicemail. After reading some of the reviews, looks like it’s best to ignore it. Proper annoying if you pick up. 019782802664 yearsWhen I picked up the call, there was a rather lengthy pause before anyone bothered to utter a word. When someone finally responded, all they managed to say was 'goodbye'. Clearly, it was just another spam call, so I've gone ahead and blocked the number.4 yearsGot a call from 01978 280266, someone named Gordon who said he was an energy adviser from Wrexham. He wanted to know if I owned the house, but I told him straight up I wasn’t going to answer that and just ended the call. It’s a bit odd, right? Why would someone from Wrexham be calling a number in Essex and pretending to be local? Feels a bit sketchy, maybe even risky.WrexhamGordonEssex4 yearsThis guy Martin rang me again, supposedly from Rethink Energy, and it was the third call. He kept rattling on without giving me a chance to speak until I had to raise my voice. He said something about me using too much energy and that the local energy companies told them to get in touch with people. Then he started asking if I'm the homeowner and about having double glazing. Total scam tactics, if you ask me.MartinRethink EnergySubmit Your Own Report (01978 280266)
