Got a call from an unfamiliar number. An elderly woman claimed to be a local energy advisor for the area, but when I asked twice for the company name she dodged the question and kept talking. My number is off‑directory and listed with the Telephone Preference Service (TPS). Report these scammers each time.

Expert Opinion
Block this number immediately to halt the barrage of unwanted calls. These persistent callers often pose as local energy advisers, pushing scams that aim to extract personal details or peddle bogus services. Reports highlight rude hang-ups and evasion of company names, classic hallmarks of fraudulent operations. Register with the Telephone Preference Service if not already done, and report incidents to Action Fraud for broader action. Avoid engaging; simply hang up and never share info. Persistence over months suggests a network of scammers rotating numbers—stay vigilant to protect your privacy and peace.

The caller was extremely persistent… an energy scam that began more than a year ago.

Yet another pointless call.
Posed as my "local energy adviser". These crooks are relentless scammers, constantly swapping numbers.
Unrecognised call. I didn’t answer and there was no message, so I’m assuming it isn’t important. Possibly phishing.
I didn't answer the unknown number; after checking this site and reading other posts, I blocked it. Cheers, WCM!
A London woman called, saying she was doing a local survey. When I asked which area or postcode, she only asked if I was the homeowner, then hung up. I tried calling back and she cut me off again – seriously, someone needs to stop this rude harassment, get a proper job, mate.
