A concise public lookup indicates it is a UK number with potential association to general landline/mobile services, but reliable, definitive attribution or recent owner details are not clearly verifiable from existing public sources. Overall, multiple reverse lookup dashboards flag UK numbers for caller ID checks, with varying risk signals; direct owner identity is not consistently disclosed. 1. What the number appears to belong to: UK number likely a consumer line (not clearly mobile vs landline) based on generic format; no confirmed business or essential institutional ownership available from public results. 2. What people say online: Various UK reverse lookup services show general risk and caller reports; some user submitted notes exist but details are inconsistent. 3. Association with scams or unwanted calls: Signals are inconclusive; some databases flag unknown numbers commonly used for telemarketing or scam reports, but no definitive scam link for this exact number. 4. Public exposure or leakage: Appears in public lookup databases and spam report aggregators; some results suggest exposure through common directories, but no explicit leak or breach dataset tied to this exact number. 5. Advice on answering/calling back: Exercise caution; do not assume trust or dial back without independent verification of the caller’s claimed identity.

10I believe the woman who called said she was from Direct Energy. Wanted to ask me a series of questions about my property, marriage status and employment. Asked her what her intention was and she could save us 35% on our energy bills - insulation, I believe - and wanted to get an assessor to visit our home. I said, No, and hung up.
Asked for my father, he passed away over five years ago. I asked who was calling they said UK Home Save. I tried to question them further but they hung up.
Persistent and annoying, trying to get me on some kind of energy-related scam. Had 5 calls from them already this week - answerphone now kicks in so they hang up, never leaving a message
Said they were able to pass on funding for the Utility Saver schem. I answered their questions and made an a ppointment. When they rang me back I queried what the funding would actually cover. The lady at the other end said there would be some cost to us but the funding would help us to recycle our energy and cut costs. I asked her to cancel the appointment as this seems very dubious. She also said both of us needed to be in for the appointment to sign! Lots of warning signs!!
Just tell them you're not the homeowner and they hang up immediately.....
UK Home Save - I asked for details to look them up - no address, website or business phone number ...obviously a scam
UK Home Save - No company address when I asked - Clear scam - Beware
Spam Scam Scum
Claimed to working for the local authority on some sort of energy scheme (or more likely scam).
some sort of energy scheme - wouldn't give any details unless I answered her questions first
