Blocked them – they keep switching the last digits but the prefix stays the same, never leave a voicemail. Don't answer, they're a right nuisance, cheers.
Direct Energy energy‑saving scam – how to stop it! - +44 161 820 5970 (0161 820 5970)

It’s odd how a single number keeps slipping through as an energy‑saving service. The pattern across reports shows a woman, often identifying herself with Direct Energy, asking for the homeowner and pushing schemes. Such calls are almost always unsolicited, frequently hang up after a pitch, and can even spoof caller ID. The safest move is to block the number on your handset and report it to your provider’s spam‑filtering service. Never disclose personal or payment details, and if the offer sounds too good, verify the company independently. Consider registering with the national do‑not‑call registry and keep a log of repeat attempts.

Fake energy company scam.
A woman rang me, addressed me by a name that isn’t mine, asked if I owned the property, I said no and she hung up.
The device flagged the call as spam before I even had a chance to answer.
A lady called asking for someone by name who doesn't reside here. I requested to know who wanted to speak with him so I could bring him to the phone, and she hung up. Clearly a scam.
A suspicious survey request targeting my grandmother's home energy efficiency was followed by an unsolicited visit from an 'engineer', which I fortunately intercepted and thwarted.
A woman claiming to be from Direct Energy said she was expecting a call from a hospital; she even knew my name, launched her pitch, and when I said I was busy she hung up. I later checked the number here and confirmed it was a scam, so I blocked it.
A woman from direct energy called me, she knew my name but i didnt have time to liste, so i hung up and now the number is blocked
I missed the call this morning, and the voicemail was just a woman chatting with someone else. I always look up unfamiliar numbers here because there are far too many scams.
I wasn't available to answer the call this morning. A message was left featuring a woman conversing with someone else. I always verify unfamiliar numbers here since there are so many scams.
They keep dialing even after you politely say you’re not interested, and each subsequent attempt becomes an even harder sell.
This number has been ringing me multiple times despite my polite refusal. The calls are becoming increasingly pushy.
She mentioned potential savings on energy and referenced others in my area. I informed her I was self-isolating due to the coronavirus and hung up.
Be cautious of this phone number - they've called before, trying to extract information from me
A real nuisance. Just block the number.
No message was left on the answering machine.
A polite young lady called to generate business for a heating solution and energy saving company, and although it was a sales call, it was harmless and came from the Manchester area.
This number is a nuisance, making unwanted cold calls.
The caller hung up as soon as I answered, either they didnt care about apoligising for the wrong number or they were those annoying home appliance people, my wife wouldnt fall for it eather
Continues to call despite being blocked and asked to stop.
The call was terminated abruptly after I picked up, suggesting potential malicious intent.
They rang earlier, left nothing, so I tossed the number onto the block list, no worries.
Today, the number called but didn’t leave a message, so I’ve decided to block it.
This number has been calling relentlessly, up to four times in just two hours. I refuse to pick up, suspecting it’s a silent call. It’s baffling how these nuisance callers persist. Phone providers should be able to track and stop them, but it seems profit takes precedence. Despite having a BT line and paying EE, neither can block numbers. Even TPS claims they’re powerless.
I'm fed up with this number calling up to four times within two hours. I ignore it, assuming there’s no one on the other end. It’s baffling that these callers can still harass people; telecom providers should be able to trace and shut them down, especially when money is involved. I have a BT line but pay my bill to EE, and neither can block the number – even TPS say they’re unable to help.
This number keeps calling me repeatedly.
Chantelle mentioned, active in the area.
After this number called and left no message, I chose to block it after checking its reputation here.
A representative from Direct Energy, claiming to be Chantelle, asked invasive questions, prompting me to end the call
