Got a call about some ‘loft insulation’ offer, even tho I’m on the TPS list. Bit annoying!

This 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.

Same 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.

My 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.

Got 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.

This 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.

I 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.

Oh 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!

I 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.

Just 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.

As 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!

I'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.

I 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.

I 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!

I 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.

I'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.

Got 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.

This 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.

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.

SCAM 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!

Lately, 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.
