"Keep getting calls from this number (or similar) with the Glossop area code. Always want to ask 'a few simple household questions'. Not sure how they got my number but get a couple of calls a day"
"Unsolicited sales call about a Home Energy Survey I'd supposedly not had completed"
"Claimed to be from energy conservation providing energy ratings for a domestic house. She said they were offering a free check for the over 60s - it would take 15 mins with a thermal camera around the house. She booked an appointment for the next day but I cannot find the company she called County Conservation Team Dorset anywhere online. We are in Wiltshire. I have tried to dial the number she called in on as a cold caller but it doesn't connect. I did agree to a surveyor coming to the house but if I cannot get through to her again to cancel it I won't let him in. It feels suspicious to me that they have a camera to go around a house by ringing out of the blue. Especially for an over 60 year old. Enticing you with a free survey."
