Received call from 0161 560 9603 on 07/02/25 @ 15.00 hrs. Very polite well spoken claiming to be calling from a solar energy company. She stated that my property had been identified as being eligible for solar panels and could have a free survey. I was then asked if I owned the property. I enquired as to where my telephone number had been obtained from, to be told that they purchase data that contained my number. She apologised for calling and disturbing me and would add my number to the "do not call list". My number is ex directory and should not appear on any purchased data list. This call is definitely breaching current cold calling laws and has been reported to Action Fraud for further investigation. Do not have any dealings with, it is a scam.
