1 yearI've had a few calls from this number and others like it. Every time I let it go to voicemail, then hang up straight away. Seems like a total scam or spam kind of thing.1 yearToday I got a couple of calls from this number about insulation. I just ended the calls straight away. Seems like a scam to me.1 yearGot a random ring from someone saying they were Chris from some energy company nearby... it really reminded me of a call I got a few days back from a similar number ending in 0136. Seems like they're just cycling through numbers or something. The voice was way too smooth, felt like a robot or AI thing. Ended the call straight away.Chris1 yearHad a call from someone named Chris, supposedly from my energy provider, about my loft insulation maybe causing damp problems. It was clearly some voice-activated AI or algorithm. I tried giving it a few vague answers instead of just yes or no, which seemed to throw it off a bit. When I asked if I was speaking to a real person, the AI replied it wasn’t a robot but claimed it was new to the role and was trying its best. Sounded pretty convincing, but it was obvious it wasn’t human. Eventually, when I didn’t reply anymore, the call just ended.Chris1 yearGot a call from some insulation firm claiming I could get help with loft insulation. The guy actually sounded genuine, talking about that yellow fluffy stuff in the attic until I told him to stop. I’m on the TPS but these calls keep coming.Telephone Preference Service1 yearGot a call from them about insulating the loft, but it's a total rip-off. They rang a few weeks back too, and when I told the bloke it wasn’t right, he said sorry and just hung up. These guys don't give up easily.1 yearKeeps ringing me from numbers like this one, often outta the blue. Seems it's all about that government insulation stuff. Usually just dead air or no one talks.1 yearThanks a lot for sharing details about that scammer’s phone number. It really saved me from wasting time and possibly getting cheated. I appreciate it!1 yearWhenever I spot a number starting with 02882, I instantly realise it's a scam. Since our number is unlisted, they're probably just making up numbers to call. Honestly, this kind of thing ought to be banned.1 yearThey just hung up without saying a word. Such a pain.1 yearI didn't pick up when this number rang, figured it was probably just another scam. These random landline calls rarely turn out to be legit.1 yearGot a call with no one on the line. Weird and a bit annoying.1 yearSo, this Chris guy, he called me again but this time from another number. Said something about being on a scam list, then just ended the call. Not very nice or helpful at all!Chris1 yearJust got a call from someone called Chris claiming to be my energy advisor - total scam. They hung up right after I answered. This isn’t the first time, they’ve tried ringing me before from a number that was nearly the same, but just a bit different.Chris2 years17/01/25 09:05 So frustrating and a right nuisance. For nearly a year now I keep getting calls from this number, roughly twice weekly. It's not just me either - my neighbours keep getting the same calls. I’m signed up with the telephone preference service but this lot clearly couldn’t care less.2 yearsThis number has been calling me on and off for the past few days, ringing non stop. I haven’t picked up any of the calls though. Proper persistent!2 yearsTotally a scam, best you just don’t pick up.2 yearsGot a call from a number but when I rang back, no one picked up. Pretty sure it's just a scam.2 yearsThey’ve rung us a few times claiming there was some sort of survey about insulation, but we never had one. My husband answered yesterday and told them we weren’t interested, then ended the call. Yet, they had the nerve to ring back at 8:30 this morning!2 yearsI just ignored it.2 yearsGot a call on our home phone around 9:20 in the morning, but the moment the answering machine picked up, the line just went dead.2 yearsThis number has rung me three times so far. I didn't pick up this morning when it rang about 8.30. The bloke on the other end says his name's Chris, but I've told him a couple of times that I’m not interested in his advice. He's quite pushy. Today, when it came up on my phone, I just ignored it.Chris2 yearsGot a suspicious call again today. Didn’t pick up, and when I called back, there was no voicemail. Blocked the number straight away.2 yearsKept ringing me from different numbers after I blocked the first one. He was pretending to be from the local energy company, trying to sell some insulation deal. Told him straight up he was a conman, but he just kept going on and on. Said he was working with the government or something - as if! I called him out again and blocked the number. Pretty sure he’ll just pop up from another phone soon enough!2 yearsGot a call saying my place was on some list for outdated yellow loft insulation. I just ended the call straight away.2 yearsThey've rung me twice today and once yesterday, but I never picked up. These fools were bothering my mobile first, and now they've moved on to my home phone. Any idea what I should do now???2 yearsPicked up the phone but it was dead silent on the other end. reckon they’ll keep ringing back with these scammy calls.2 yearsGot a call about solar power, said it was from Omagh but turns out the number is based in South Africa. Definitely a scam, watch out!OmaghSouth Africa2 yearsThey called saying there was some dodgy activity on a couple of my credit card payments and said I had to act right away.2 yearsI’ve had a few calls from numbers like 02882 480140, 02882 480136 and 02882 480137 over the last few days, but everytime I answer they just end the call straight away. Seems a bit sketchy to me...2 yearsToday, I’ve gotten about 7 or 8 calls from this place. I kept blocking the numbers, but they keep calling me from new ones. It’s really frustrating!2 yearsHad to block this number once more coz they managed to get through again.2 yearsGot called by a scammer 4 times within just two hours, couldn’t believe it. Had to block that number straight away.2 yearsThey kept going on about insulating the loft, so I just ended up blocking the number.2 yearsGot a bloke on the phone claiming he’s Chris, says he’s an energy advisor for our area. This is the second call from him today - first time was from a similar number, 02882 480137. I’ve also had calls over the last few days from 02882 480136. Instead of keeping quiet this time, I told him straight up that I know he’s trying to scam us and to stop calling.Chris2 yearsSo this number has been ringing my landline a couple of days in a row, just kept ringing without me picking up. I did answer when they called the first time and it was a very polite English woman who said sorry for calling me out of the blue. She mentioned something about “solar energy” but I got really skeptical and ended up just hanging up since it felt like a scam or something fishy.2 yearsGot a call on my home phone claiming we qualified for solar panels, felt like it might be dodgy so I just ended the call.2 yearsGot a call about loft insulation that seemed fishy, so I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number.2 yearsThey let it ring just a few times - about three rings - and then just cut off. It’s getting seriously ridiculous at this point.2 yearsI got a call from them yesterday but there was no voicemail left. Then today, they rang again. Weirdly, later on the same day, another call came through, but the number was different by just one digit - probably because we had blocked the first one. Definitely a sneaky scammy trick!2 years02882480140 rang me but I didn’t pick up, it went straight to voicemail and they left no message. Checked this site afterwards and decided to block the number.2 yearsAnswered quick then hung up straight away so they ended up paying. It’s like every year, once the New Year hits, the dodgy calls start rolling in. Bet they won’t bother ringing again. Total scam, so I just blocked the number.2 yearsReceived a call about insulating the loft, but it was all rubbish.2 yearsToday I got a call and I picked up straight away. When I said hello, there was just silence on the other end. Then they just cut the call. Pretty sure it was one of those call centres.2 yearsI let it ring and didn’t answer.Submit Your Own Report (028 8248 0140)
