A person called Nichola, speaking with a distinctly English accent, claimed to be a heating efficiency agent and wanted to visit tomorrow for fifteen minutes to show how I could save energy. You couldn't make it up!

Caution is essential with unsolicited calls like these, as they often mask deceptive intentions. Reports consistently highlight aggressive pitches for energy savings, promising hefty discounts such as 35% or 38% off bills, but refusing to detail costs or terms. Callers may pose as advisors or from firms like Direct Energy or Energy Direct Ltd, pushing for home visits or personal details that could lead to charges or data theft. Background call centre noise, silent hang-ups, and high-pitched tones on answerphones raise red flags. Block the number immediately via your phone settings or provider tools. Register with the Telephone Preference Service (TPS) if not already done to cut cold calls. Never share info or agree to visits—report to Action Fraud if suspicious. Stay vigilant to protect against such nuisance scams.

When this number rang, I oddly answered despite suspecting spam. All I heard was loud laughter from a call centre; I stayed quiet, they hung up, and I blocked it.

I got a call today; I never respond to unknown numbers, just listen. Background noise hinted at a call centre, and when I stayed silent they hung up. I then blocked the line.

A garbled voicemail was left; when I called back, the mailbox was unavailable and a man's voice told me to block it.
The call was routed to my answerphone via CallSafe security; the caller hung up after leaving a high‑pitched whistle. Yesterday a similar call from a Manchester number claimed to be from Direct Energy, which also felt like a scam according to who-called.co.uk.
An announced call slipped past my blocker, sounding like a call centre rambling about direct debits. I hung up instantly, no conversation. These jokers are a total nuisance—seriously, get a life.

Someone sounding like a middle‑aged woman asked for Mrs Shields, but I've lived here 45 years and know no Shields in the neighbourhood.
Seems like Magrathea Telecommunications are fraudsters; they'd be better off sent to Barnard's Star promptly.

Four calls came in within five minutes today; I let them go to voicemail. Looking up the number confirms I was right to ignore it, especially after yesterday’s energy scam from a Bradford line.
A nuisance scam call that I’ve blocked.

A caller asked for the previous owner's details (over four years ago). When I queried the reason, they shifted to an energy‑saving sales pitch. I mentioned our TPS registration and asked for the company's name; they became aggressive, blamed TPS, and hung up.
A woman named Emma, who knew my surname, claimed she could cut my utility bills without changing suppliers. I told her I'm not on benefits and dismissed her; she insisted it wasn't means‑tested, asked a series of questions, and wanted to send someone to my home. I pointed out she had no real advice and that I could research myself—pure scam.

Got nothing but silence from 01615329831, so I tossed it straight to the block list, innit.
Received a cold call from Direct Energy even though I'm on the TPS, my Sky filtered it and I rejected it – proper scam, mate.

Cold calls, such as those from Energy Direct Ltd, are potentially illegal. It's unclear why these calls continue to happen, especially since they appear to be from a fake call center in Manchester that charges per minute.
