3 yearsGot a call from a number in Greater Manchester, didn't pick up 'cause it seemed like a scam.Greater Manchester3 yearsAll I got was dead air on their side.3 yearsI answered the call but there wasnt a single word said from the other side.3 yearsGot a call at 11:45 and they brought up insulation stuff. When I asked which firm they were with, they got really dodgy and just said they deal with loads of companies! I just hung up. I'm in Co. Durham by the way.Co. Durham3 yearskept getting calls with no one speaking on the other end, really annoying!3 yearsThey keep ringing me from numbers ending in 120 and 124 about selling cladding insulation supposedly from the Government. It's really annoying!Government3 yearsI got a call from this number when I was in Nottingham earlier today. Luckily, after reading the reviews on here, I saw through the scam and didn’t get tricked.Nottingham3 yearsHad a call from someone saying they were with a government dept, supposedly about checking the insulation in my loft. Definitely sounded dodgy to me.3 yearsI asked what company she was calling for, and as soon as I did, she just ended the call - definitely sounded like some sort of insulation con to me.3 yearsA recorded message came through about loft insulation, saying mine might be unsafe and that I could get a free check, this time it was a lady’s voice, usually it’s some bloke. I played along and gave all the info she wanted, then when she asked for my address, I gave one with 'bugger off you scammers' in it, and the call dropped straight away. About five minutes later, the same number but ending with a 3 rang again with the identical recorded voice, and I did the exact same thing to them.3 yearsSeems like a dodgy call to me.3 yearsPicked up the call but no one spoke, so I figured it was a scam. After looking it up here, it turned out to be exactly that.3 yearsThis number rang me earlier but the moment I picked up, they ended the call straight away. Guess it was one of those dodgy scam calls, which I was then able to verify on this site. Anyway, I’ve gone ahead and blocked them now.3 yearsI think I just got caught up in some dodgy insulation scheme. Feels like a total scam to me.3 yearsThe call went straight to my voicemail, but they didn’t bother to leave a message. Seems a bit dodgy to me, possibly a scam. What a nuisance!3 yearsI received a call from someone purporting to be a loft insulation inspector, saying they were operating in my neighbourhood and were offering a complimentary loft insulation assessment. However, I chose to block their number as they had reached out to me previously. They also made the claim that their services were funded by the government.3 yearsI answered but stayed silent, then hung up. After that, I checked who it was on this site.3 yearsAbout half an hour ago I got a ring from 01707819563, which I just ignored straight away. From what I’ve seen, scammers often try calling from loads of different numbers all in quick succession, just to catch someone who might naively answer. Turns out this 01707819563 is linked to a dodgy energy firm too, so it’s obviously a scam. Honestly, I wish the UK government would actually take some real action against these kinds of companies, but somehow I don’t hold out much hope.UK3 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were insulation inspectors. But after checking the number, turns out it’s a known scam. It’s frustrating - why isn’t this number just blocked already???3 yearsJust got a phone call from someone saying "Hi, I'm Sam, an energy advisor near you." Isn’t cold calling supposed to be banned here in the UK? Doesn't feel right at all.SamUK3 yearsThey rang me when I wasn’t free, typical move for those scammers.3 yearsI reckon it was one of those dodgy scam calls. As soon as I picked up, they just hung up on me. I checked the number and the reviews here were spot on and really helped.3 yearsTotal rip off. Some lady rang me up, saying she was from the government and wanted to do a free check on my loft insulation because apparently some types are now banned. It sounded believable at first, but when I told her I live in a shop on the ground floor with no loft, she just hung up straight away without saying anything else. Quite dodgy if you ask me.3 yearsDodgy calls, be sure to report them right away to the cops so they can handle it. There’s a handy system already in place for this. Just search for ‘Action Fraud’ and head over to the UK police website. On the phishing report page, scroll all the way down to find the quick form - no need to sign up or anything. You can write in any threats or rude words in the free text box they provide on the mostly checkbox form. Reporting these scams is the best way to help put a stop to them!UK3 yearsGot a call that was clearly dodgy - as soon as I picked up, I heard two different people talking, one after another, each claiming something else. The second one sounded like a robotic message about being local energy consultants, then suddenly it switched to some government spiel about dangerous insulation in the attic. Didn’t hang about, just ended the call.3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be loft insulation inspectors, said they’d do a free check to make sure the insulation’s safe. I just politely declined. Feels like a dodgy scam to me.3 yearsThe person calling never bothered to say who they were when my answering machine picked up, so I’m pretty sure it’s some kind of scam.3 yearsThe person on the other end wouldn’t give their name to my answer machine, so I’m guessing it’s just some kind of scam.3 yearsEvery time someone picks up here, it’s just a message about a delivery and then it goes dead, no one ever actually talks.3 yearsWhen someone said they were from Sky, I got a bit suspicious and decided to just end the call.SkySubmit Your Own Report (020 3896 0124)
