Marked as a spam call related to energy companies. I'm on the TPS list, so these calls really shouldn't be coming through. The number called me three times, with the last three digits changing - first 0861, then immediately after I ended that call, 0866, and two days later 0872 (028 4052 0872). All of these are now added to my block list.

Got 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!

Just 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.

This 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.

Heads 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.

I 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.
