This call is probably an AI chat bot selling loft insulation. It did not answer any of my questions but simply continued with the blurb. By the way, the first sentence is complete lies, and there was more to come. Unfortunately Registering with TPS has not stopped any of these type of calls.

Caller trying to push loft insulation. Would not take no for an answer. Just hung up

reported 01226 818 734 as Harassing
Just ignored and blocked until the next call from another number

reported 01226 818 734 as Harassing
Cold call

If this is the loft insulation call going around, it is part of an organised attempt to rob people. Reports online suggest it is widespread and targets homeowners with convincing scripts designed to gain trust before pushing unnecessary work.

Nuisance, repeated

reported 01226 818 734 as Harassing
Missed call but looks like the usual loft insulation scammers again. They are persistent and simply switch numbers when blocked.

reported 01226 818 734 as Harassing
Picked up the phone to a silent call, unnecessary

reported 01226 818 734 as Dangerous
Cold call scam about insulation. hung up quickly once it hit the answering machine

reported 01226 818 734 as Harassing
The wise guy at the other end of the line began his sterile monologue with the words : "Hello David" before mumblig something about windows. I didn't say one word in response and let my hanging-up speak for itself.

Silence before disconnecting. Spam. Phishing.

reported 01226 818 734 as Harassing
Computer voice trying to sell solar panels

reported 01226 818 734 as Harassing
Called my landline, went to answerphone - silence. I agree with a previous comment that it's time for phone companies or authorities to take some action.

reported 01226 818 734 as Dangerous
Called my landline and left no message on the answering machine. Suspicious silent type call.

reported 01226 818 734 as Harassing
Call went to voicemail and there was complete silence before it disconnected. It makes you wonder if they are trying to record your voice.

reported 01226 818 734 as Dangerous
Good quality female computer voice which initially gave the impression of a real person, but it soon becomes apparent it's a robot. Said I was eligible for solar panels at no cost. Am I the home owner? I said I was not interested but she continued, so I put the phone down. These people should not be calling TPS registered numbers, but they just ignore it, as there are no effective sanctions

reported 01226 818 734 as Dangerous
Landline rang and when I answered there was complete silence. It felt suspicious and could easily cause concern, especially for elderly people who may find these calls distressing. I believe it may be linked to scam activity.

reported 01226 818 734 as Harassing
Yet another silent call, I wish BT would do something about these people - and those that hide/spoof/call from an international number - (but they won't as they make money from the calls). TPS is a waste of time against shifty companies using auto-diallers :(

reported 01226 818 734 as Harassing
Second of two suspect spam/phishing calls this afternoon. Repeated calls from similar numbers.

reported 01226 818 734 as Harassing
Silent call from unknown number

reported 01226 818 734 as Harassing
Called about home insulation improvements. I told them im not interested but they keep trying.
