02038961400 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 02038961400 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance call from a supposed energy efficiency company, often with a caller named Jo or Joan. Many suspect it’s a scam linked to loft insulation offers, with no clear company identification. The calls come repeatedly from similar local numbers, often around 9:30am, and include silent or dropped calls when questioned. Users note these calls occur even after submitting meter readings on legitimate energy sites, raising suspicion about data use. Despite marking numbers as spam or using call blockers, the calls continue from different numbers with no voicemail left. There’s frustration over the effectiveness of the Telephone Preference Service (TPS) in stopping these calls, which appear to be automated and designed to mislead or harass recipients.

Got a ring from a woman named Joan, claiming she’s with an energy efficiency firm that supposedly works locally. She wants to send someone round to check the place and suggest improvements. This Joan has called me quite a few times now. Feels like a dodgy insulation con to me. The number traces back to a company called Utilities, but whenever they call, they never actually say which company they’re from. If you try calling back, it’s just a recorded menu for Utilities, like press 1 for billing and so on. Seems pretty dodgy, definitely a scam in my book.

Around half ten in the mornings is when they ring me non stop. Last time I picked up, I said "Oh, it's those energy con artists again," and then they just hung up on me.

Constantly get calls from a set of numbers but they never leave any voicemail or message.

0203 896 1400 keeps ringing with no answer. Numbers starting with 896 all seem similar. I got a call from someone pretending to be an energy advisor but it was rubbish. Blocking doesn’t help much as they just switch the number next time. This scam is definitely local, not from abroad. Lately, I’ve seen calls from 0203 896 (like 1066, 1220, 1396 & 1350). Just a heads up, if you try calling them back, the cost is on you, not them.

They kept calling me over and over, but when I finally picked up, there was nothing but silence. Pretty sure it was some sort of robocall.

I dunno if the TPS is really doing enough to get these calls to stop, honestly. Feels like they’re still just getting through all the time.

Weird thing is, I received the call just moments after I checked my account with Octopus, my electricity company. I hadn’t asked anything, just popped in to enter my meter readings. If a number I don't recognise calls and leaves no voicemail, I just tag it as harassment straight away.

My landline, which I hardly ever pick up anymore, just got a call. As soon as my answering machine came on (I use it to filter calls), the person quickly disconnected. Didn’t leave any voicemail. Feels like it was probably some kind of scam.

Energy ripoff! They use a set of numbers all containing 1352. Last week, it was only after I mentioned the TPS and the £5000 penalty for the fourth time that they finally gave up and hung up. It's obvious they've got me marked down because they keep trying from different numbers I haven't managed to block yet. I really need to figure out how to block entire number ranges on my phone, though I doubt it's possible.

Received a call from 02038961400, a woman called 'Jo' saying she was our energy adviser for the area. When I asked which area she covered, she just hung up straight away. Definitely a scam!

I've had loads of calls from 02038961400 recently. I’m quite sure it’s some kind of scam, so I just ignore the calls and have blacklisted the number now.

Got a call out the blue on my number which is on the TPS list. A woman with a British accent introduced herself as 'Jo, your neighbourhood energy consultant...'. I didn’t hang around long once she started her usual spiel - this is that annoying weekly call from ‘Jo’ about my loft insulation supposedly being a health hazard now, and of course she can do a free inspection for me. What a joke! These telemarketers are relentless. Best thing to do: just drop the call, don’t answer next time, and slap on a block.

Got a call from an 020 389 number again, so I just ignored it thinking it’s probably some scam. I’ve blocked it now. Honestly, what’s the point of TPS? Doesn’t seem to stop these dodgy calls at all!
