6 monthsGot a voicemail from a woman with an English accent, said she was from the security team. She told me there were charges of £199 from Amazon and £899 from some other place on my card. Pretty sure it’s just a scam.Amazon2 yearsThis bloke Ben keeps ringing me from loads of different numbers, always with some dodgy insulation scheme supposedly from the Government. You’d think by now he’d realise I’m not exactly in the mood to be messed about and get annoyed quite easily. Honestly, how many times does someone have to tell you to buzz off before it sinks in? Guess he’s just too thick to get it.BenGovernment2 yearsGot another one of those dodgy energy advisor calls again... typical!2 yearsGot a call on my home phone from 02840 520867 around 2.20 in the afternoon. It looked dodgy right away, especially because nearly the same number called me about a week ago. When I answered, the bloke started with some government nonsense, but I cut him off straight away with “Sod off, you scammer!” and he hung up. Felt pretty good doing that, I must say!2 yearsThis number just keeps calling non stop, really annoying.2 yearsSome bloke called Sven rang me up about insulating the loft, claiming it hadn’t been checked in ages. He wanted to set up a survey. I quickly told him no way and told him to buzz off, or something along those lines.Sven2 yearsGot a call from some so-called energy saving scheme, and I just told 'em to come up with a better scam because this one’s been done to bits. Seriously, it's high time the law stepped in and stopped these idiots. Wouldn’t mind seeing a few of them behind bars for a change.2 yearsGot caught in one of those dodgy insulation scams, totally not what I expected.2 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from some government dept, claiming my place didn’t have enough insulation. They clearly had no clue about my property. I reckon they dialled my landline thinking I might be an elderly person who wouldn’t know much about loft insulation. They were super condescending, going on about 'yellow fluffy stuff' like I was daft.2 yearsDidn’t answer their call and got no voicemail from them. So, straight away I blocked the number!2 yearsI answered the phone but didn’t say a word. They ended the call straight away. Seeing what others have shared, I’m thinking this might be a dodgy number.2 yearsANOTHER SCAM CALLER This one’s trying the heating trick. Seriously, find a proper job will ya.2 yearsGot a call from this number claiming I had asked about solar panels - bit odd since I live in a ground-floor flat! When I told them where I live, they just cut me off immediately. Watch out for this one, seems dodgy.2 yearsGot a call but when I picked up, there was nobody there.2 yearsI picked up the phone and the person on the other end just ended the call right away.2 yearsI picked up and before I could say anything, the call just dropped.2 yearsI picked up the call but they just cut off straight away. It’s quite worrying especially for the elderly, really makes you wonder what their intentions are. I’m going to label this one as risky.2 yearsI pick up the phone and there’s just silence on the other end, no one says a word.2 yearsSounds like a dodgy call, based on what others have said. Didn’t bother leaving anything on my answerphone. Really getting annoyed with these constant calls, so I just block them, but they always seem to ring from a different number next time.2 yearsI got called on my ex-directory home phone and as soon as my answer machine kicked in, they just hung up - same trick all these scammers use. Every day this week I've had calls from loads of different numbers, but I don’t bother answering, I just block them straight away.2 yearsBeen getting loads of calls from this bloke "Chris" who sounds like he’s from London, saying he’s some local energy advisor for my area. Total scam, just ended the call straight away! Heard they’ve been hitting up Wales too. I’ve been on the TPS for ages, so no idea how they’re still allowed. Honestly, BT should’ve stopped this ages ago but seems like they care more about making money off these con artists than actually looking out for their customers.ChrisLondonWalesTPSBT2 yearsI had no need to pick up my phone since it showed a warning, these scams are just the worst kind of people.2 yearsLoads of calls from different numbers claiming to be "local energy advisers". They’re definitely up to no good, so we just cut the call without saying a word. We're on the TPS too, so it's pretty clear they’re ignoring the register.TPS2 yearsGot a call from this number and just decided to let it ring out, easy decision.2 yearsThe number popped up on my phone while I was out, but they didn’t leave a voicemail or anything. I’ve got my phone registered with TSP, yet I still get loads of scam calls all the time. It’s frustrating to have to pay for a landline when all I get is annoying calls from scammers. I’ve blocked quite a few of them, but they just keep coming.TSP2 yearsJust like the person before me, I've been getting repeated calls this week from this number and a closely matching one. I'm on the TPS list, so these calls are clearly ignoring the rules. I picked up once and the caller claimed to be from a firm dealing with windows and doors, but I cut them off pretty quick. I've now blocked both numbers so hopefully they stop pestering me.TPS2 yearsEvery day this week I’ve had calls from this number and a bunch that are the same except for the last two digits. I don’t pick up and they just keep ringing, never dropping a voicemail. It’s pretty annoying!2 yearsToday, I got two calls from someone named Chris who said he worked for a solar company - but honestly, it felt like some dodgy AI because whenever I asked something tricky, the caller just went silent. I've had loads of calls like this before, and it screams scam to me. So, I always tell them to get lost, and Chris just replies with a polite "Thank you." My advice? Don’t bother replying, just hang up straight away.Chris2 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Chris, an energy advisor for my area, but he never actually mentioned my postcode. When I asked him how local he really was, he just went quiet. Made me think it might be some sort of test for an AI bot or a poorly programmed one that can manage basic chats but gets stuck if you say something it doesn't expect. The accent sounded pretty standard English, definitely not from Northern Ireland.ChrisNorthern Ireland2 yearsAt around 8 in the morning, my phone went off and it rang a few times before cutting out. I'm pretty certain it was some kind of automated call.2 yearsTotal scammers. I’ve blocked the number and reported it straight away.2 yearsComplete scam, these idiots. They never bother leaving a message on the answering machine before hanging up. What a joke!2 yearsGot a call from somewhere in Banbridge, Northern Ireland, but the person never said who they were and just asked me to press #. Luckily, Callguardian stopped them from calling me again. Sounds like one of those solar panel scams to me.BanbridgeNorthern IrelandCallguardian2 yearsGot a call that was clearly a scam.2 yearsGot a call from some bloke about plastic windows or something. He tried to check if I was having a good day. I said it was fine up until he rang me. Blocked the number straight away.2 yearsPicked up the phone and a lady said 'hello' then suddenly it switched to an answering machine with a recorded message from someone called Jane talking about a roof. I ended the call before it went on any more.Jane2 yearsThey rang but it just went straight to voicemail, no message left or anything.2 yearsI got a call about five minutes back from someone claiming to be with a company that does door and window replacements nearby. Told them we already had new ones fitted recently and then I just blocked the number.2 yearsI usually don’t pick up calls from numbers I don’t recognise, they just get sent straight to voicemail. Most of the time there’s no message left, just some scammer trying their luck. So I’ve blocked it.2 yearsI just let the phone ring out and it went straight to voicemail. Didn’t leave any message, so I’m guessing it’s just one of those random cold calls.2 yearsFor more than two minutes my phone just kept ringing non stop. The only way to make it stop was to answer the call, but as soon as I did, it just went silent and hung up. It's so frustrating that BT lets this happen. Definitely feels like some sort of scam to me.BT2 yearsI answered the phone and a bloke said something about my property, then I just hung up. I've signed up to TPS, so calls from UK numbers like these shouldn’t be happening, but I reckon these phone numbers are probably fake anyway. Lately, I’ve been getting loads of these cold calls. Some of the numbers calling me recently are: 01615601611, which rings twice a day, 01514584223 ringing twice daily as well plus once this morning, and also 02840520867 rang me just before lunchtime today.TPSUK2 yearsGot a call from a lady who said she was Jane, talking about solar panels. She asked if we owned the house and wanted to give info, but we told her we weren’t interested and just ended the call.Jane2 yearsThis was a total scam, pretending to be from an energy provider.2 yearsGot a rubbish scam call with some dodgy automated spiel about fake solar panels. Just ended the call and blocked the number straight away.2 yearsGot a call earlier but my call filter stopped them in their tracks. They had to punch in a code to go through, which is usually a sign it’s a bot. I’ve blocked the number now.2 yearsGot a call around 4 in the afternoon, dude claimed to be the local boss but seemed like a pushy sales scam if you ask me.2 yearsI got a call from this number and it was some robotic voice, sounded like a woman called Jane, trying to sell me a free estimate on solar panels. She kept pausing awkwardly like a machine was struggling to catch my words and didnt answer a single thing I asked. In the end she just hung up. They were smart choosing a polite female voice, but if those dodgy pauses had seemed a bit smoother, I might’ve stuck around longer to hear more.Jane2 yearsHad a call earlier from a bloke claiming to be with an energy firm. I just told him he sounded dodgy and ended the call straight away.2 yearsI asked them how they got my number and then they just hung up on me! It was about some solar energy stuff.2 yearskeeps ringing non stop with some robot voice that I can’t really understand.2 yearsThe call came from an automated voice and I couldn’t really catch what they were saying. They keep ringing my phone non stop, any ideas on how to stop this?2 yearsJust got a call from 02840520867 about solar panels. Pretty sure it’s one of those phishing or spam calls, or some scam. Definitely don’t trust it.2 yearsDidn’t bother answering an unfamiliar number, and after looking it up here, I’m glad I didn’t. Definitely dodged a bullet there.2 yearsThe moment I asked where they found my number, they just cut me off. No idea how they even got it.Submit Your Own Report (028 4052 0867)
