02840520878 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 02840520878 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance associated with scam calls, often linked to fake surveys about home insulation or energy grants that do not exist.

Victims describe tactics such as silent hang-ups, pressure to schedule appointments, or attempts to sell ineffective products like spray foam insulation that can devalue property.

For the past few days, I've been getting calls from this number here in Scarborough. They haven't left any voicemail or messages at all. My phone automatically blocks it when it rings. Just thought I'd point it out - looks like a suspicious number! 0284 0520878

Got a call on my house phone about spray foam removal, wish there was a way to block these annoying calls!

I told them I had concrete up in the attic, but the automated call kept on going like it didn’t even hear me. Definitely one of those spray foam scams.

I got a call from some automated lady talking about loft insulation. I didn’t say a word, but she kept asking if someone was on the line. In the background, you could hear a guy with an Asian accent shouting. Must be another dodgy scam, so I just blocked the number and moved on.

Got a call from an unknown number on 17-10, no voicemail either. Another irritating ring, so I just blocked it.

Had a call from these so-called "Local Energy Advisors" again, but it’s just some automated voice system trying to set up a visit to check your loft insulation. They claim your insulation is always lacking and offer some "Government Grant" which doesn’t actually exist. Then they try pushing spray foam insulation on you, saying it’s great, but it actually lowers your house value and makes it really hard to sell afterwards. Total scam, watch out!

This number has rung me loads of times today even tho we're blocked. Each time, there’s a bit of silence then it just hangs up. On the last couple of calls I kept saying “hello” to see what’d happen. First time it clicked off again, but the second time a woman’s voice came on saying something about a "homeowners community action group". I asked if it was a real person, got silence, so I figured it was. Told them I’d report them and basically told them to get lost (sorry, just had enough of the nonsense!).

They rang me up claiming it was a survey about discount vouchers, but of course it was just some dodgy scam. Not a new trick or anything, just the usual rubbish trying to catch people out.

Got a call from some AI woman called "Regional Heat Adviser" Jane, she claimed she wasn’t selling anything but kept going on about spray foam, which sounds like another scam to me. Absolutely fed up with getting these calls on my personal mobile.

On 25th October 2024, around 12:56pm, I got a call from a woman claiming to be with some sort of Home Security Authority. She sounded well spoken and was talking about issues with my house, but I didn’t pick up, just ended the call straight away. I’m convinced it was a scam. We keep getting calls like this every single day about this time.

Looks like a fake number claiming to be from Bainbridge. The phone companies seem to let these scumbags get away with it, so best just ignore and move on.

I’ve got loads of blocked numbers and strange codes coming through, makes me wonder if keeping a landline is even any use now. Seems like no one’s really doing anything to sort it out.

Honestly, these phone calls are driving me mad. I only have a landline since it came bundled with my broadband deal. I'm seriously considering ditching it altogether and just going back to using my mobile. You'd expect BT to step up and do something about all the complaints about these and other NI numbers, but clearly they’re just making a quick buck and couldn’t care less that these annoying calls are disturbing people in the middle of the night.

Been getting loads of calls from Ireland recently, but I don’t know a single person there. When I answer, it’s just dead silence. They ring up at all hours, day or night, which is really annoying. I never pick up any numbers I don’t recognise, but it’s quite stressful always getting bothered. Every time it’s a new number, so I block them, yet somehow the calls just keep coming.

I got calls from 02840 520 878 and also 02840 520 897. I usually don’t pick up from unknown numbers or ones not saved in my phone. Neither of them bothered to leave a voicemail, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked both numbers.

Got yet another one ringing through late at night. I never pick up though, just let it buzz till it stops then block and report. Scam callers must be getting really desperate nowadays. Fingers crossed folks are wise enough to ignore unknown numbers these days.

Got a call that felt totally dodgy, probably a fake from a Northern Ireland code. I've gone ahead and blocked it plus a bunch of other calls coming from 028 numbers. Honestly, it’s mad that criminals somehow get their hands on these phone numbers!
