Phone number ☎️ 02045162749 👆 is reported as a nuisance series of cold calls often linked to a purported government or energy company initiative regarding loft insulation or medical alert devices. Callers frequently use multiple similar numbers, do not leave messages, and sometimes hang up abruptly when questioned. They may claim to be local energy advisors or from a medical alert service, but their approaches are widely considered deceptive or fraudulent. Recipients are advised not to provide personal information, to block the numbers, and treat the calls as potential scams. The consensus is to ignore such calls as they persistently attempt to engage but lose interest if rebuffed firmly. Authorities have been urged to intervene given the repetitive and misleading nature of these calls.

Pretty much the exact same message every time.4 yearsGot a bloke ringing me again about roof insulation. Usually I just end the call straight away, but today I thought I’d mess about a bit.

Proper funny!4 yearsI got a call from someone who said they were from an energy company.4 yearsGot a call about loft and wall insulation in our "old" house - said it was from 1860 and needed urgent replacement because it was dangerous.
