02840520848 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 02840520848 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance involving cold calls from individuals falsely claiming to be local energy advisers or offering home improvement services like windows, doors, loft insulation, or solar panels. Despite many users being registered with the Telephone Preference Service, these calls frequently bypass restrictions. Callers often hang up abruptly or fail to leave messages, raising concerns about scams targeting personal data and vulnerable people, especially the elderly. The contact is linked to AI-generated voices and scripted pitches. Most affected advise not answering unknown numbers, blocking the contact immediately, and reporting it as a scam. Vigilance is strongly recommended, and reliance on the TPS alone may not be sufficient to prevent these intrusive and suspicious calls.
Reports on phone number 02840520848
2 yearsGot a call at 6.43pm from someone called 'Chris, your local energy advisor' - exactly like the ones that were blowing up my mobile about half a year back, now using the landline instead. I answered saying, 'Good to hear from you again, still up to the same dodgy business?' and he just hung up. Bit cheeky, if you ask me. I’ve seen others say it’s just cold-calling, ignoring TPS regs, and trying to gather leads for home insulation companies - maybe even collecting personal info too.ChrisTPS2 yearsReally fed up with these scam calls. I’m ex-directory and signed up with the TPS. Sometimes I pick up and if they mention loft insulation, I just say “oh that’s lovely love, but I live in a caravan, no loft here.” Another time, I told one I needed to find my hearing aid, then after a few minutes I came back and asked them to repeat themselves. Just as they got started, I said “hang on, the battery’s dead, I’ll find a new one”… they get all annoyed and end up hanging up. It's getting ridiculous how rude they get.TPS2 yearsGot another call on my landline that hardly ever rings. Some bloke saying he’s my local energy consultant, but I’m based in the Midlands and he’s up north in Northern Ireland. They’ve phoned a few times now and just don’t get when I say “not interested”. Definitely a scam.MidlandsNorthern Ireland2 yearsGot a call first thing in the morning and it gave me a proper fright! Clearly they don’t care about TPS rules at all. Blocked the number straight away. I normally don’t pick up if I don’t know who it is, and my answerphone is always switched on anyway.2 yearsCalled me two times today. Decided not to pick up after reading the comments here.2 yearsThe call begins with someone saying I’ve been chosen for a windows and doors upgrade or somethin like that. As soon as I said I wasn’t interested, they just hung up straight away.2 yearsSaid they were from the local energy company. I told them “I’m waiting for another call” and hung up. Looked up the number here and found out it’s a scam. Our number’s ex-directory and on the No Cold Calling list. Have blocked the number now.2 yearsGot a call from a bloke just after 9.02am on 6th September 2024 who asked me how I was doing. I didn’t answer back, told him I wasn’t expecting any calls and wanted to know what he was after. He just dropped the line straight away. [My number’s ex-directory and I’m signed up with the TPS.]TPS2 yearsGot a missed call earlier while I was out, no voicemail or anything so thought it might be a mistake and looked it up here.2 yearssolar panels? total rip off if you ask me2 yearsGot a call from this number earlier today, first time I’ve seen it pop up. Didn’t answer as I didn’t know who it was, and they didn’t bother leaving a voicemail or anything.2 yearsWhen I asked how they got my number, they just said "have a good day" and then ended the call!2 yearsI just hung up straight away, didnt even bother hearing what they were on about.2 yearsA bloke called David from some Windows & Door company rang me offering a 30% off deal because they were working nearby in my postcode. I had my doubts it was a scam, so asked him to go over it again. I told him nicely I wasn’t interested. He said, ‘Alright, thanks for your time,’ and then hung up. I’ve blocked the number now. Checked this site afterwards. Really wish TPS and phone companies could do more to block these scammers, especially as my number is ex-directory.DavidWindows & DoorTPS2 yearsAsked about loft insulation, totally a scam tho. I just blocked the number straight away.2 yearsGot a call from this number around 3.30pm today. It went straight to voicemail but they didn’t leave anything. After reading the other reviews, I’ve decided to block it.2 yearsDidn’t answer as the number was unfamiliar. Let it ring through to voicemail, but no one left a message. Thought it might be a scam, so I went ahead and blocked it. We’ve been signed up to TPS for ages, yet somehow these scam calls keep finding a way through. TPS seriously need to step up their game and patch these gaps quickly. Proper annoying!TPS2 yearsCheers for the heads up, got a call from this number today on 3/9/24 at 2.11pm.
