‘Matthew’ calling about our loft insulation. Really? Opportunistic liars. So much for TPS - obviously they don’t adhere to these (or any other?) regulations … surprise, surprise! Scam scum.

Keep calling about loft insulation. Says he is calling from London but area code was Bournemouth. Today's area code was Chipping Norton. Waste of time blocking as keep using different area codes. Just tell them to b*":#! *r off.

Called regarding loft insulation mould that was reported against me. I asked caller to guess what I do for a living (loft insulation), line went dead after a few minutes of him trying to read his script whilst I goaded him to prove his info, or guess what I do for a living. He certainly called the wrong household. Add this number (01608531008) to your ignore lists people, or have fun with them.
