After picking up, I kept quiet until the machine asked if I was present; I inquired how they obtained my number and was told they used "various methods". They claimed interest in solar panels, which I’ve never expressed, so I told them I wasn’t interested, hung up and blocked the number.

Expert Opinion
Block this number immediately to prevent further intrusions. These calls exhibit classic hallmarks of a solar panel scam, where automated voices falsely claim interest in energy-saving products to extract personal details like electricity bills or home ownership status. Scammers often use VoIP services from providers like Voxbone to mask their origins, making tracing difficult. Never disclose financial info or confirm your presence, as silence can sometimes disconnect the bot. Report to Action Fraud if details were shared, and consider registering with the Telephone Preference Service for fewer nuisance calls. Staying vigilant curbs these persistent tactics.

The caller identified me by name and, after a brief automated pause, claimed to be following up on a solar‑panel enquiry I never made. He asked about my monthly electricity spend, and when I answered "yes" to exceeding £60 and admitted I wasn’t the homeowner, he said I didn’t qualify and then hung up. I blocked the number and told him to stop calling.
Although Voxbone SA, established in 2005 and now part of Bandwidth, offers cloud telecom services, it’s been heavily criticised for enabling scammers, resulting in many users reporting unwanted and possibly fraudulent calls.
