I wasn't sure if I was speaking to an actual human being but whoever/whatever was on the end of the phone just ploughed on regardless. I tried to say we already had solar panels to no avail. In the end I put the phone down. Not a nice experience.

Female recording asking if I could hear her. Did not trust it and never called back.

Rang briefly and stopped before voicemail could pick up. Typical robocall behaviour from scam call centres.

Did not answer and the caller failed to leave any message.

Female robot voice trying to arrange home improvement appointments even though I never requested anything. Very intrusive automated sales call.
