08454290078 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 08454290078 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance boiler replacement scam using automated calls on frequently changing numbers. Callers disguise themselves as a government scheme or boiler helpline, often refusing to provide company details or addresses. Pressing options like 9 to opt out or 2 to speak to an operator is ineffective and may confirm your number for further abuse. Many recipients are registered on the Telephone Preference Service (TPS) but continue to receive calls, suggesting non-compliance with regulations. The calls are widely criticised for harassment, misleading content, and refusal to remove numbers despite complaints filed with the ICO and Ofcom. Blocking individual numbers is ineffective as the scammers rotate through various lines rapidly, making vigilance and reporting essential.

Got an automated call about a replacement boiler. They keep switching the phone numbers, so blocking doesn’t help. Numbers I’ve seen over the last couple of days: 01853 33272, 01616 966054, 01577 25868, 01299 46924, 01744 95896, 01422 66866. BT has to be aware who’s renting these lines, so they should be doing something about it. Seems like making money comes before looking out for the customers.

My voicemail is well fed up with all these messages. Someone really needs to step in and put an end to this nonstop barrage of annoying calls. When will this unwanted pestering finally be dealt with?

Tried pressing 9 but it makes no difference, they just keep calling. They also ring from 0163793848 quite often.

Ignore the bloke telling you to press 9, it's not that simple. Just make sure you report these calls to the ICO, the more complaints they get, the quicker something will be done. They keep switching phone numbers to stay ahead, I've seen them use 08454290198 and 08454290188. Report every single one to the ICO.

I've made it abundantly clear to this number that I absolutely do not wish to receive any more calls from them. They seem utterly oblivious to the concept of the Telephone Preference Service! If only I could unearth a name, I’d definitely lodge a complaint against them.

Boiler Helpline really cheeky to send those messages sayin’ 'this is an important message' - what a load of rubbish! The TPS doesn’t seem to be doing much these days, they should’ve put a stop to these calls ages ago, especially when they keep ringing from the same number they gave out. Wish I could just block ‘em for good. - caller: Boiler Helpline

Kept pressing 9 to opt out but it’s no use. I’ve tried it a bunch of times and the calls just keep coming. The funny thing is, I don’t even own a boiler to switch out. So annoying!

Got a recorded message about a boiler replacement. Been getting loads of these annoying calls lately. Today I finally pressed 2 and got through to someone. I played along with dodgy replies and they ended up telling me to stop wasting their time! So I told them where to go. From what I've found, hitting the 'opt-out' button just means your number gets chucked around to different marketing firms and you end up with even more calls. Proper pain in the neck.

I rang them back and asked what time they'd tried to phone me, but the call just dropped straight away!!

This number keeps ringin nonstop, they say you can press 9 to stop gettin calls but since it’s clearly a spammer, how do we really know if it’s safe or if they’re just tryin to redirect ya to a pricey premium line??

Been getting automated calls about boiler replacements like 3 or 4 times lately, each time from a different number.

Quit moaning and pay attention to the message. Didn’t it say ‘press 9 to opt out’? So just do it! It’s not that hard.

Yup, another one of those boiler scams using robocalls. “We’ve been attempting to reach you.” Yeah, right - with a robot voice? It’d be funny if it wasn’t so annoying and obviously a waste of everyone’s time plus totally dodgy.

These days we keep getting calls about some government boiler scheme. Usually get at least a few each day, sometimes three or more. Tried to complain to the phone preference service but since it’s an automated message they just send you off to another website that can’t handle complaints like that one by one. Really annoying!

They’re a right nuisance and really need to be banned. I’m fed up of getting hassled by dodgy sales scams. I’m on the ex-directory list and even asked my phone provider to put on privacy blocking, yet the calls keep coming nonstop.

Got 3 calls in just a couple days, always between 2 and 3 in the afternoon. Left a message too. Not interested in a boiler at all. When I actually needed a new one, no help from them.

Loads of calls from this number on my home phone. It’s some recorded spiel about swapping your old boiler. Thing is, I don’t even have a boiler and we don’t get gas in my area. At the end it asks you to press a number to take the offer or another to say no. Heads up: don’t press anything, could end up costing loads!
10 years
They keep ringing when I'm not able to answer. Never leave a message either. Seems like one of those dodgy boiler scams. I’m just gonna block their number.

Got a robo call about my boiler earlier, with a prompt to press 2 for more options, so I pressed it. Connected right away to someone who asked me to give my number to take me off their list. They wouldn’t do it unless I told them how old my boiler was. I told them I’m on the TPS and they shouldn’t be ringing me at all. They claimed I’d given permission to be contacted, which I definitely never did. In the end, I refused to share the boiler’s age and they just ended the call. - caller: Boiler helpline

I received an automated voice message concerning a government initiative aimed at swapping out old boilers-something about them having been attempting to reach me. This kind of call seems to be quite common, as I've had similar ones from different numbers. I've now added this one to my call blocker, so it shouldn't be bothering me anymore.

Got a recorded call about swapping my boiler, which I never asked for. I’m on the TPS (Toothless Preference Society) list, yet they’re still ringing me multiple times each week. Maybe we should all request free boilers and then give them the cold shoulder when they show up, or if you wanna be nice, say you haven’t a clue who they are and someone’s taking the mick with their name. Would be funny if they had to deal with hours of wasted calls themselves, maybe after loads of that nonsense they’d stop their annoying tactics - or should I say ‘market scams’?

Got a recorded call saying "We've been trying to reach you about a Government scheme to replace old boilers. Press 2 to hear more or 9 to opt out." We are on the TPS list. Definitely reporting this to the ICO as well. I wish the ICO would go after not just the companies but also the voice actors who record these 'professional' messages. They have to be aware that their recordings end up irritating loads of people like us.

I've received calls from a group of dodgy individuals trying to convince me that I need to swap out my boiler, which, if I may add, is fairly new! As a member of the Telephone Preference Service, I shouldn't even be on their radar in the first place. Just a heads up - whatever you do, steer clear of pressing 2. They’re clearly deceivers and likely up to no good!

Got a call from this number with some automated message about changing my boiler, but mine’s brand new. I’m on the TPS list too, so I wasn’t expecting any calls like this at all. Whatever you do, avoid pressing 2 - they don’t tell the truth and might even be up to no good. The caller wouldn’t even say who they were, which just proves how dodgy they are.
