Definitely a scam, stay well clear of this number!

Received a call from someone claiming to represent a company called Residential Green Energy, insisting that our home lacks adequate insulation. I made it clear that I'm on the do-not-call list for marketing purposes. The chap seemed to acknowledge my request and swiftly terminated the call.

This number’s been ringing me loads, sometimes with the last couple of digits switched up. I haven’t picked up once. They never seem to leave a voicemail either. Had a look here and, as you'd guess, looks like nothing legit coming from it. I’m just gonna keep blocking and ignoring it.

So, this guy Alex called me, said he was from some loft insulation firm. When I asked him where exactly they were based, he just brushed it off and rattled on with his usual sales pitch. I had to ask him again, twice in fact, before he finally said London. I told him we’re actually in the Midlands, so not really close by, and then he just kinda gave up. Pretty funny really.

Some bloke called me, said his name was "Alex" and he was from some Medical Alert Company. He told me I qualified for one of those medical alert gadgets. No way am I falling for that - total SCAM!!!

This number keeps ringing me nonstop, and I never pick up. Somehow they got hold of my secret unlisted number and have phoned me about half a dozen times within just two weeks. Totally annoying!

This is definitely a scam call, best to ignore it and not pick up.

My mum, who’s quite old, answered a random call on our home phone. They were pushing some sort of free Medical Alert deal, and she said she wanted to know more. Then they started asking if she was over 50 and if she had trouble moving around - seemed like they were just trying to get more details. I reckon this sort of thing might cause more annoying calls later on.

Got a call from some random number, no clue who it was. Let it ring out and went straight to voicemail, but the moment my answerphone kicked in, they just hung up. I’m ex-directory and signed up with the phone provider to block unwanted calls, but clearly it does nothing! Such a waste of time!

I asked them to tell me their company name and they just said they’d been on the BBC and in the Telegraph but refused to give any real info. Then they started saying I might have damp in the loft. I asked what they could actually do about groundwater, and as soon as I did, they just hung up. Honestly, not really harassment, just a bit annoying!

The second I picked up, the person on the other end just ended the call. I usually avoid taking calls from numbers I don’t recognise, especially ones starting with 02. It’s so frustrating since my own number is private.

I got a call from someone I didn’t recognise, they claimed I might qualify for some health alert but didn’t have any of my details. Still, they acted like they knew something. Pretty obvious it was a scam, so I just ended the call.

We got a call from someone calling himself Alex, who claimed to be an energy advisor for our area, but he never mentioned which postcode he was talking about. We've ended the call pretty quick both times. This is the second time he's called us and it smells like a scam for sure.

Just got a call from someone claiming to be from a UK insurance company about window coverings. Seemed a bit dodgy, like a scam trying to get personal info. Watch out for calls like that!

I tried calling my elderly grandmother when someone rang her about free loft insulation for those over 50. They mentioned that if you weren't eligible, it would cost £75. However, when they asked for her phone number, they suddenly cut the call without further ado. Quite suspicious!

They rang me a couple of times today asking if I had a driveway. I told them to piss off, pretty straightforward.

I got a call that seemed totally automated, with really slow and kind of robotic answers whenever I asked something. They said they were some sort of 'energy advisor', but it just felt like they were pushing insulation sales.

Called me claiming to be from Medical Falls or something like that. Sounded a bit off, like they were just trying to get info or sell something. Didn't trust it and hung up straight away. Definitely didn't seem legit to me.

Got a call today from someone claiming to be a “local advisor” asking about my loft insulation. The moment I said I wasn’t aged between 50 and 80, they just ended the call. Smells like a dodgy scam targeting older people, probably some cowboy outfit trying to con pensioners. If this number rings you, watch out!

I received a call from a chap named Alex claiming to be from Medic Alert, hoping to chat about my age and other matters. I decided to interrupt him before he could delve into some sort of device I might qualify for...

Received a call from someone claiming to be our regional energy consultant regarding loft insulation. After I prompted him three times about his location, he finally admitted he was calling from London. Hardly what I’d call local, given that we're based in the Midlands! He must have sensed my scepticism because he hung up quite swiftly after that.

Got a really forceful guy on the phone who just cut me off when I tried to ask some stuff. Tried to call him back but it turns out the number isn’t even active anymore.
