This number was a pre-recorded script with pauses to allow you to say anything at all so it can continue as if you have answered it's questions. Thought i would let it ramble on and give nonsense responses for which it thanked me, bless it. It was all about scare tactics regarding your old loft insulation causing condensation, dampness and mould! At the end the one way conversation it asked for my surname which i dutifully provided as Mouse, upon which it thanked me for my time and i would get a return call within 30 minutes. Which i may have but missed. So unless you fancy wasting your time to save one other from being subdued, i'd test the questioned asked by responding with a load of twaddle to confirm it's a Robo and then hang up and block the number.
