What could explain these persistent calls from an unknown Leeds number? Reports describe silent pick-ups, call centre buzz, and accents suggesting non-UK origins, often pitching energy surveys or loft checks tied to government pretexts. This pattern screams scam tactics, where callers probe for personal details like home ownership to push fraudulent services. No legitimate outfit operates this way—silence and quick hang-ups on challenge are dead giveaways. Block the number immediately via your provider or phone settings. Register with the Telephone Preference Service to cut unsolicited calls. If details were shared, monitor accounts for odd activity and report to Action Fraud. Stay vigilant; these nuisances thrive on unanswered queries.
I had no clue who called, so I let it go to voicemail since the number was unfamiliar. No message was left.
I picked up, yet there was no reply to my greeting… that says it all!
An Indian lady used my name to discuss an energy survey and loft conversion, then hung up.
They called again about energy, claiming it was a government survey. I told them it was a scam and hung up.
Nobody spoke during the call.
I received an unsolicited call.
I ignored the call as it was flagged as spam.
An Indian caller tried to find out if I owned my home for an energy check; I hung up, clearly a scam.
An unknown number called me, so I chose not to answer.
I'm fed up with these clueless firms constantly dialing. I answered just to vent, only to find nobody on the other end. When will these calls be halted?
A caller identifying as Indian talked about a loft‑space survey, even knew my name. After mentioning I rent, I dropped the call immediately.
Much like other reports, an Indian‑accented gentleman cited a government survey. I told him I wasn't interested in a scam and hung up.
Two calls hit my landline on Thursday 8 May 2025, first at 11:30 and again at 14:40. The initial ring played call‑centre background noise, the second was dead silence. Looks like unwanted sales outreach; I've reported similar calls from the Leeds area before, albeit with different numbers.
