2 yearsGot a call about some ‘loft insulation’ offer, even tho I’m on the TPS list. Bit annoying!TPS2 yearsThis number wasn’t saved in my phone, and they didn’t leave any voicemail. From what I can tell, it looks like this could be linked to one of those insulation rip-off calls.2 yearsSame happened to me - was just a silent ring with no one talking. What I do is answer and stay quiet, gives them the creeps cause they expect you to start talking. Probably think it’s a dead line or something. Honestly, if they’re going to keep harassing TPS-listed numbers with their dodgy calls, might as well make them hang around on the line for as long as they want.2 yearsMy answering machine picks up right away on my landline, and this number just called and hung up straight away. Real people always leave a voicemail, so I’m pretty sure this one’s dodgy.2 yearsGot a call from 02840520863 on 21 Oct ’24 around 5pm. They were trying to chat about some government scheme for loft insulation. I wasn’t interested, so I politely declined.2 yearsGot a call claiming to be from Green Energy, but that place doesn’t even exist. Total scam, watch out!Green Energy2 yearsGot a couple of missed calls from this number and another one that was quite similar. My phone’s call blocker wouldn’t let them through, so it’s obviously some sort of scam. I’ve blocked and deleted them both, but these scammers seem to have loads of different numbers they use, so they just keep trying.2 yearsThis number called me but I ignored it - bet it’s some kind of scam.2 yearsGot called about insulation stuff, sounded dodgy so I just blocked the number and deleted the message.2 yearsGot a call from 02840520863 on the 18th of October around 1:50pm but there was no voicemail or any message left. Wonder who that could have been?Wonder2 yearsrang the number but no one answered!2 yearsGot a random call about insulation today, seemed totally dodgy - probably a scammer!2 yearsThis is the first time I’ve got a call from this number. I let it ring out and it went to voicemail. I could hear what sounded like a call centre in the background. It was about 3.45pm.2 yearsI think this was a con. Some bloke called saying my loft insulation needed updating. He claimed he wasn’t trying to sell anything but wanted to arrange for someone to come and check my loft out. I kept telling him my insulation was fine but he just wouldn’t listen and kept interrupting me. So, I just ended the call.2 yearsOh great, another dodgy number showing up again. Bit annoying how these scam calls keep popping up. Anyway, I've just popped it on my block list thanks to 'BT Call blocker'. Finally, I can relax a bit without these pesky calls!2 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be with green energy. They wanted to verify some info and mentioned my records saying I had spray foam insulation. The voice sounded really robotic and then they just dropped the call. Bit weird.2 yearsBeen getting calls about solar panels from some green energy company, and after reading these comments, I'm starting to think it might be a dodgy scam.2 yearsThey didn't leave any message. Total scam!!!2 yearsAnswerd the phone but it was dead silence on the other end?2 yearsJust got a ring from this number. Some guy called "Ben" asked if I'd done a loft survey recently and whether I owned the place. When I asked him to clarify which property he meant, the call ended straight away. Definitely felt like a scam.Ben2 yearsAs soon as I answered, the call just dropped out. I’ve heard before that ringing them back can end up costing a lot, so I’m not going to bother with that. Judging by the other reviews here, it sounds like a scam to me. I’ll be blocking the number to be safe. Cheers for sharing the info!2 yearsThey just hung up without saying anything, definite scam.2 yearsI've had John from GREEN ENERGY ringing me once more, despite asking nicely to take my number off their list. He just kept cutting me off. As soon as I said I wasn't interested, he got rude. I ended up hanging up, yet again.JohnGREEN2 yearsThey said they were from my area’s energy supplier and that some sort of energy trust asked them to ring me up. But when I tried to find out where they were calling from, they just talked over me and didn’t want to answer anything.2 yearsGot a call at 1:43 in the afternoon on Monday, October 7th, 2024. Absolutely no sound, just a annoying silent ring.2 yearsI wasn’t sure who was calling so I just let it ring out to voicemail. No message was left, but after looking up the number here, I saw loads of warnings about it being a scam. I’ve gone ahead and blocked them now. Big thanks to everyone who took the time to share their experience with this number.2 yearsI still get calls on my landline (surprising these days) and this number popped up again. Since it was unfamiliar, I saved it under "Annoying Caller ?" in my contacts. They called once more today, so I decided to look it up. Yep, just another annoying time-waster. On a side note, if you can catch Scambusters on BBC1, it’s really interesting - they actually catch the scammers red-handed. Proper good telly!ScambustersBBC12 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were with the green eco centre, telling me my loft insulation was the wrong kind and that it might be causing damp upstairs. We had a bit of a conversation until I mentioned the TPS complaint site, then he didn’t sound too pleased.TPS2 yearsThis number called me thrice. I didn't pick up as it wasn’t saved. They didn’t bother leaving any voicemail either.2 yearsI just ignored the call and didn't pick up.2 yearsGot a call out of the blue about swapping out the old, kinda crumbly yellow insulation in my loft. It was definitely one of those cold calls! I didn’t bother hearing them out any further.2 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were a window and door fitter, but it felt like a total con. Definitely sounded dodgy to me.2 yearsI've had a couple of calls from this number recently, the latest one was today at 10.26. Both times it was a guy named Chris on the line. He claimed my house was flagged for having some kind of "old style" fibreglass insulation in the attic. When I mentioned it was the second call I’d received from him, and that these unsolicited calls are not welcome without my permission, he just replied with "have a nice day" and hung up.Chris2 yearsGot a call from this A1 bot spamming my phone. They kept going on about some Property Energy Performance Register that doesn’t even seem real. Claimed my house was one of the last in the neighbourhood without proper roof insulation (which is rubbish, and how would they even know that?). When I wouldn’t spell out my last name, they just dropped the call.A12 yearsGot a missed call from a number I didn’t recognise, no voicemail or anything. Feels like it was probably some dodgy scam or something best avoided, maybe even risky.2 yearsI got two calls from these numbers: 02840520866 and 02840520863. Both times, the call ended as soon as my voicemail kicked in. It just screams scam to me.2 yearsDidn’t pick up since the number didn’t ring a bell. No voicemail left either. Pretty sure it’s one o’ them scams.2 yearsThey hung up before I could say anything!2 yearsThis bloke sounded pretty legit at first, but then he started saying my house was listed on some online 'Government Energy register' and that my loft insulation was old and rubbish! I told him I’ve lived here for nearly 40 years and I've never had any official come poking around in my loft. After that, he just hung up. Definitely a scam, don’t fall for it.Government Energy2 yearsSome bloke called Chris from an energy provider rang me, so I just ended the call straight away.Chris2 yearsTotally a rip-off mate!2 yearsOn 23rd September 2024 around 3:09 pm, I saw a missed call from this number. After looking it up here, I found the feedback from others really helpful - cheers for that! It means I won’t bother returning the call and I know to be cautious if they ring again. Just a side note, I’m on the TPS list, so I’m not expecting these random sales calls at all.TPS2 yearsIts just some scammer tryna rip you off, trust me dont pick up. Just let the voicemail grab it and then block the number. My Panasonic phone comes with free call blocking which is handy for stuff like this.Panasonic2 yearsThis bloke called Chris has rung me four times now, and every time I've just ended the call straight away.Chris2 yearsGot a scam call again, and this is the second time in just ten minutes!2 yearsNo message was left on my answering machine, so I'm guessing it was just one of those scam calls. Pretty sure they were trying to fish for info or something dodgy.2 yearsSomeone called claiming to be Chris, said he's the energy advisor nearby. Gave off a lively vibe with a London accent, sounded pretty sure of himself. He even asked if we're doing alright today! I just ended the call straight away.ChrisLondon2 yearsSCAM ALERT: I've had loads of calls from someone claiming to be a "Local Energy Advisor." I've put it down to the TPS (Telephone Preference Service) and apparently, they're looking into it now. Just a heads up, if you ring 02840520863 from a landline, it can charge you as much as 16p a minute. Best to just avoid calling back at all!TPSTelephone Preference Service2 yearsGot a call from some loft insulation firm, told 'em I’m renting the place but they just kept going on and on like I didn’t say anything. Ended up hanging up.2 yearsThey didn’t even leave a voicemail.2 yearsGot two calls in as many days from numbers right after each other, someone claiming to be Jane about solar power. Definitely one of those AI scam bots. I’m on the TPS list and my number’s not even public, so how do they keep finding me?JaneTPS2 yearsNo message left when I answered, just silence after the beep. Definitely looks like a scam call.2 yearsLately, I've had calls from 0284-520863 and 0284-520862. I always let unknown numbers go to voicemail first. Legit businesses always leave a message, scammers never do. These particular callers left me nothing. After reading what others have said here, it’s pretty obvious this is a scam try. Best to just ignore and not get involved with them.2 yearsGot calls loads from someone claiming to be my local energy advisor. Always the same voice but they seem to use different names and phone numbers each time. I just hang up the moment I realise who it is. Feels like a total scam to me.2 yearsI got a call from someone called Jane, claiming to be from a solar panel company. It was pretty convincing at first, but after a while, I noticed too many awkward pauses. Then it hit me - it was just some AI bot! Honestly, just a waste of my time picking up.Jane2 yearsGot a call from someone called Chris, said he was an energy advisor. Heard his voice before, so 100% a spammer.Chris2 yearsJust got hit with one of those insulation con jobs today. Completely caught me off guard.2 yearsThis number rang me around 9 this morning. When I answered, there was silence on the other end but I could make out some voices faintly. I decided to just end the call since nobody actually said anything.2 yearsSaw I had a couple of missed calls on my landline but didn’t pick up. Honestly, where do these muppets even find our numbers? Proper scammers, the lot of them.2 yearsGot a call out the blue from someone saying they were a "local home energy advisor." Total cold call, seemed a bit dodgy to me.2 yearsGot a call from someone calling himself Chris, said he was an energy consultant for my area. The voice sounded really genuine, like not one of those sketchy call centre jobs. But when I tried to cut in, the bloke kept going like nothing happened and didn't answer back at all. Turned out it was just some pre-recorded message. Gotta admit, the voice and delivery were spot on, but honestly, hope they get caught out soon.ChrisGotta2 yearsGot a call about loft insulation, and when I asked straight up where they’d got my number, the bloke just wouldn’t say. Definitely smells like a scam to me! 😨2 yearsGot a call from someone pushing loft insulation sales. Seemed a bit off and I wasn’t interested at all.2 yearsGot a call the other day from someone trying to pitch solar panels - funny thing is, I don’t even own the place, it’s just rented! Totally pointless.Submit Your Own Report (028 4052 0863)
