2 yearsTotally scammers, no doubt about it!2 yearsJust got a ring from this number right after I'd blocked a different Manchester one 0161 531 9693. So, I've added this one to my block list as well.Manchester2 yearsThey keep ringing me from this place every few days, but I never pick up since they never bother to leave any voicemail. I’m registered on the TPS, but it’s useless against these scammers.TPS2 yearsDidnt say a word, just kept quiet!Didnt2 yearsKept getting loads of calls off numbers that looked similar.

I answered the phone once earlier this week and now they keep calling back nonstop.2 yearsGot a call from 02840 520861 on my home phone at about 5:26 pm.

Didn't pick up 'cos it was an unknown number. I looked it up on this site later but seems like it's no longer listed.2 yearsThis number rang me last night but I didn’t answer it. My BT phone showed it was probably a nuisance call. I’m defo adding it to my growing blocked list now.BT2 yearsGot a call from some bloke asking about our loft insulation. Told him we're all good and don’t need anything else. He kept saying he was from the area and could come round to check it out. Felt like he was fishing for our address or summat. Pretty sure it was a scam!2 yearsTotal scam, had to block the number and report it straight away.2 yearsJust got a call from 028840520861, really threw me off. They said some surveyor wanted to pop round to check the insulation in my loft and asked if I could make a cuppa for him! When I asked for a number to confirm, they couldn't provide one and said the manager would ring back. Still waiting to hear from them, but I’ve got my questions lined up.2 yearsThis number keeps ringing my landline nonstop, beginning around half past eight in the morning. It’s always some bloke named Chris, claiming to be from a local energy company. We’ve asked them repeatedly to take us off their call list, but they just carry on chatting like we’re not there. The calls haven’t stopped at all. Sadly, my landline doesn’t show who’s calling, and since a bunch of elderly folks like to give us a ring that way, I can’t just ditch it. So now, I usually either hang up straight away or just mute the call and leave it to ring out nearby.Chris2 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be an energy advisor but they refused to tell me which company they worked for. I just ended the call right there.2 yearsGot a call from this number early in the morning, about 8:45. The bloke said he worked for our local energy company and that they were working around here.

They said they’d do a loft insulation check for free, give me a certificate, and might replace the insulation if needed. Apparently, the manager was meant to ring me back in about half an hour to sort out a time for the inspection.Green Eco CentreLondon2 yearsGot a ring from a guy called David, said he was from some Windows company or summat. Before he even kicked off, I told him we’re on the TPS list. He just said “no worries” and hung up straight away.DavidTPS2 yearsHeads up everyone, the number 02840520861 has been brought to attention by some careful folks here for dodgy stuff, mostly linked to energy scams from what I've heard. This info seems pretty solid based on recent checks. I just ignored the call myself. Since I've signed up for the TPS, I reckon I shouldn't be getting calls from UK numbers - if this one actually is a UK number.TPSUK2 yearsThey kept ringing one right after the other with no break, doesn’t seem like anything but a scam to me.2 yearsI have no idea where they found my current home number from. I told the person to quit their scams and then just ended the call.2 yearsThat was the final straw for me.2 yearsI got a call from a bloke named David saying my windows and doors are more than ten years old and that I’m on some sort of national list for people who should upgrade. Sounds a bit dodgy but he was quite persistent.David2 yearsHad a call from someone claiming my loft insulation needed changing because supposedly the neighbours had discovered it too, which is ridiculous since they've never even been inside my place. I just kept chatting to them with no plan to buy anything and they ended up hanging up on me.2 yearsYet another dodgy call, best to just ignore it.2 yearsTotal scam, beware!2 yearsBeen getting loads of calls from what looks like the same Solar panel company. The numbers always change on the last digit but they’re all from Northern Ireland. I’m on the TPS list so not sure why I'm still getting these. Just keep blocking them as they pop up. Proper annoying!SolarNorthern IrelandTPS2 yearsI got a call from a lady saying she was "Jane" representing some "Solar Energy" company. She told me I might qualify for some kind of grant after they apparently checked my address. Sounds good, right? But honestly, it turns out it was a total con. Never trust these calls. Don’t share any details or even answer their questions. Seriously, just hang up straight away. These lot are like parasites - worse than fleas or bedbugs!JaneSolar Energy2 yearsDidn’t pick up but kept ringing on and off for a really long time.2 yearsSome bloke phoned claiming to be from the local energy advice folks. I kept asking him how he managed to get my number 'cause I'm registered with the TPS. He didn’t answer and just kept chatting on. After me repeatedly questioning, he finally just said "have a nice day" and hung up. I reckon this was the third time he’s called me.TPS2 yearsI just ignored the call, didnt pick up.2 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be with a local energy firm.

Proper scam, just wanted to get into my details.2 yearsI chose not to pick up.2 yearsI’m registered with TPS, so I wasn’t expecting a call from this number.

Stay careful out there!Chris Martin2 yearsUsually I just let calls from numbers I don't recognise go to voicemail, but this one kept ringing and ringing so I thought what the heck and picked up.
