02840520876 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 02840520876 👆 is reported as a persistent scam operation targeting UK residents with cold calls about loft insulation. The caller, commonly identifying as "Chris" from a supposed local energy advisory or "Green Eco Centre," falsely claims to offer government-backed grants or energy improvements. Despite repeated refusals, calls are frequent, often from numbers linked to Northern Ireland that do not match local areas. Many recipients note the calls bypass the Telephone Preference Service or are blocked by call filters but return with slightly altered numbers. The callers hang up if challenged or when faced with unanswered phones, leaving no messages. This is widely regarded as an attempt to mislead and exploit, with no legitimate connection to any official energy scheme or provider. Users are advised not to engage and to block these numbers.

2 yearsWhat a waste of time, these lot promise things but never actually deliver. I even felt silly letting them come round to check out my place. Proper scam if you ask me.2 yearsGot a call from a woman talking about loft insulation and energy providers, said she was government approved. I’ve had this call once already before.2 yearsThis morning I got a call from a really nice bloke offering free loft insulation. Something didn’t feel right though, and I was pretty sure it was a dodgy call - turns out I was right. The number was from Bamford, Northern Ireland. The number they used was 02840 520876 this year.BamfordNorthern Ireland2 yearsGot a call about replacing loft insulation, they said something about a telephone preference survey. When I mentioned that, the guy just went silent. Definitely one of those cold call scams.2 yearsGot a call from a Huddersfield number, West Yorkshire, but as soon as it went to voicemail, they just hung up. Didn’t leave any message or anything.HuddersfieldWest Yorkshire2 yearsLooks like they’re going all over the country, annoying every one of us. Such a hassle!2 yearsTotal scam, don't answer!2 yearsI've signed up for TPS, so my answerphone never even picked up. Sounds like the caller might've chickened out or it was just one of those robocalls.TPS2 yearsThey keep ringing me like, at the worst times, at least three times daily. I let it ring out for ages cuz I don’t want to pick up. So irritating! Every time I block the number, they come back with a slightly different one. This really needs to be put to an end.2 yearsTypical time-wasters, rang but never bothered to leave a voicemail. Fingers crossed this ends up costing them something!2 yearsSome bloke rang me with a strong male voice, asking if I’d ever got my loft insulation looked at since it was put in. He went on about possibly getting a grant for upgrades if it gets checked out. I just quickly told him ‘no thanks, I’m alright’ and ended the call.2 yearsGot a call from 028 4052 0876 at about 10:17 this morning. The bloke said he was Chris, some local energy advisor or something, asking how I was doing. Seemed off to me so I just ended the call. I’m in Warwickshire and my number starts with 024, yet this was coming from 028 which is actually for Londonderry! Bit sketchy if you ask me.ChrisWarwickshireLondonderry2 yearsSo, this bloke called me saying he was Chris from the energy company nearby. He claimed he got my info from the local EPC office and was ringing about home insulation. I could tell it was dodgy since we’ve gone through this a few times already. Whenever I told him I’d report him, he just ended the call straight away.ChrisEPC2 yearsI got this number from checking on 1471.2 yearsSome bloke ringing me up calling himself "Chris" said he was my "Local Energy Advisor," but he was calling from a number that definitely wasn’t local. I just said I wasn’t interested in any advice and hung up on him.Chris2 yearsThis number never picked up when I called.2 yearsSome bloke called Chris saying he was from the energy company, trying to chat. Told him I wasn’t interested and hung up straight away - total scam.Chris2 yearsSo this bloke calls me up, says he's Chris. Then he starts going on about this Magic List of his, like he knows exactly what type of loft insulation I have. Maybe some little elves have been sneaking around the roof to check it out? I’m half expecting them to have written notes about the ancient carpet in my spare room or even peeked in my fridge behind the tub of yoghurt! Magic Chris, huh, with his clairvoyant powers. I just told him, "Alright mate, you have a good one," and that was that.Chris2 yearsAs soon as my voicemail picked up, the person on the other end just dropped the call.2 yearsWas just on the phone with a loft insulation company, mentioned I live in a council flat and they ended the call pretty abruptly. Quite rude if you ask me!2 yearsThis number wouldn’t stop calling me but never left a voicemail. Definitely a scammer.2 yearsChris claims to be a local energy advisor but he’s actually from Northern Ireland, nowhere near the West Midlands where I am. Definitely not local at all.ChrisNorthern IrelandWest Midlands2 yearsSome bloke named Chris rang me, claimed he was with an energy firm. When I asked what company exactly, he just kept saying his name was Chris and that they’d heard my loft insulation wasn’t up to scratch. I told him I don’t even have a loft and ended the call. Totally sounds like a scam to me.Chris2 yearsDon’t pick up if this number rings, it’s a total scam!2 yearsGot a call on the landline from 02840520876, not sure why they bothered. Glad to see other people getting calls during the day too though!2 yearsHello, just checking in as your energy consultant. Hope everything’s going smoothly with your projects!2 yearsLooks like we've got another scam number to throw into the mix!2 yearsThe first ring got cut off by some auto-dialler thing. Then, under 10 minutes later, I got another from someone named ‘Chris’ who said he was with the ‘Green Eco Centre’. He said my place was listed on some ‘energy performance register’, which he reckoned was a public record. When I asked where I could check it because their info about my house was way off, he just hung up. Definitely a scam. Feels like they all go by ‘Chris’ and it’s just a big operation.ChrisGreen Eco Centre2 yearsToday around 4:30pm I got a call from this number. It rang straight onto my answerphone and as soon as they heard my message, they just hung up. Seems like this number is linked to some scammy activity. We barely use our landline, prefer relying on mobiles instead.2 yearsThis number rang me at 10.14 in the morning, and since I didn't know who it was, I just let it ring out. Probably for the best! 028405208762 yearsi quickly ended the call when i couldn’t place the number, figured it was sus since my landline rarely rings.2 yearsYesterday I got a call from this number out of the blue. Some bloke claiming he’s my council’s energy advisor - yeah, right! Sounds like a dodgy scam to me, just trying to con pensioners out of their savings. You’d think someone would stop these lot by now, metaphorically speaking, of course 🙄2 yearsI keep getting loads of dodgy calls, probably some sort of scam or spam. It’s really annoying how often they ring.2 yearsI keep getting calls from this number 02840, some guy claiming to be Chris working for Green Eco about insulation. It’s definitely a scam, so don’t bother answering or giving any info. Just a heads up for anyone else getting these annoying calls!ChrisGreen Eco2 yearsGot a call from some scammer claiming to be from my local postcode. I asked him what part exactly, and suddenly he made this weird fart noise and his voice started shaking - pretty clear he realised I wasn’t buying it. Then he said he needed to check with his manager (the guy couldn't even handle it on his own). Looks like someone’s gonna need a fresh pair of pants real soon!2 yearsGot a call earlier from 028 40520876, a bloke named Chris who sounded quite polite. He was going on about being with the “Green EcoCentre” and something about an MG Performance register. Things only made sense when he started talking about loft insulation and damp issues. Claimed nearly everybody around here had it done, and he was just ringing the last few. I kept trying to get some answers, but he just brushed off my questions. Had similar calls in the past, so I block the numbers but they just show up on different ones and bother you again.ChrisGreen EcoCentre2 yearsTotally a scam, be careful!2 yearsMy landline rang from this number, and I spotted it on the caller ID. I didn’t pick up though and thought I’d look it up here beforehand. They must have been ringing for like 2 or 3 minutes straight before finally hanging up!2 yearsGot two calls from this number today but didn’t pick up either time. They also didn’t leave a voicemail or anything.2 yearsSome bloke called Chris rang me, sounded polite and spoke proper. He said my house was on some kind of list from a survey, saying the roof insulation was rubbish and maybe causing damp. I asked who did the survey and how they knew there was insulation there in the first place, but he just couldn’t answer and then cut me off. Definitely a scam.Chris2 yearsSomebody rang me saying my home insulation needed updating, but they had no clue who I was. I'm signed up with the TPS, so they really shouldn't have bothered calling. I told the bloke off for ringing despite that, but he just kept repeating the same lines like a robot. Honestly, I think it was some kind of automated scam call.TPS2 yearsLately my phone keeps buzzing with calls from 02840 numbers, but I just let them ring out without picking up. Unsurprisingly, not a single voicemail was left. I've gone ahead and blocked them now.2 yearsChris rang me about the loft insulation needing an update, said it was old and had to be replaced. I asked for the name of his company and their website so I could have a look myself. As soon as I did that, he just hung up straight away.Chris2 yearsThis number got blocked by the call blocker on my phone.2 yearsGot a call from a number I didn't know and it never dropped a voicemail like usual. I looked it up on this site quickly and then went ahead and blocked it.2 yearsYet another annoying scammer from overseas, just trying to trick vulnerable people out of their cash! Seriously, why isn’t anything being done by our government to stop these idiots?2 yearsGot a call today but my blocker picked it up straight away. No message left or anything. Seeing what others have said, I’m thinking it's probably best to stay clear of this one, might be dodgy.2 yearsSeeing how many are looking up this number, it’s clear it’s some kind of scam. I’ve just blocked it.2 yearsTotal scam, watch out!2 yearsGot a call but it just went straight to my voicemail, then they hung up without saying anything. Feels like some kind of scam to me.2 yearsTotal con.2 yearsGot a ring from some bloke named Chris claiming to be an energy advisor. Hung up before he even got to say much.Chris2 yearsThis Chris bloke has called me around twenty times now, first on my mobile and now on the landline. I've told him over and over that I'm not interested, but he just keeps on calling. Honestly, it's getting really annoying. Feels like a total scam to me.Chris2 yearsSomeone rang me saying my home was on some sort of list for having old loft insulation. They never gave their name or said which company they were from. I just cut the call straight away, didn’t want to hear any of it.Submit Your Own Report (028 4052 0876)
