Hi John,
I don't see how this worked. All 07 numbers are mobile phone numbers, so
how would you be charged more for it? Each number suffix has a particular
charge band allocated to it.
All the best
Steve

Hi Trace,
The one thing that I have come across in this aspect was one time when my
brother was in hospital in Kent, with pancreatitis and extremely ill. It can
be somewhat grave, if not fatal. He did recover.
The point was that he rang me from a 07 number. In my ignorance, I thought
this was a mobile rated cost number and was quite happy to call him back on
my mobile phone which is on a call package.
It turned out that in fact I was paying what I thought were extortionate
fees for the pleasure of ringing my brother in hospital. They were making
money out of people ringing their patients. I thought this was appalling.
His wife then bought his own mobile phone in to prevent this in the future
dozen or so days that I called him.
So, beware of all phone calls that you do not know who they came from.
Regards, John

oh, after i'm done swearing at them i then just leave the line open,
the phone companies are actually as bad in some ways, take thesepremium rate
numbers that in the past people have rung not knowing they'd be charged an
arm and a leg for doing so, the phone companies say that they can't do
anything about them, of course they can as its the phone companies who we
pay our bills to and so it must be they who pass on the money, hardly roket
science not to is it.
trace
oh and, the employees are as much to blame as the employers, if that's
actualoly the set up,

Hi Trace,
I understand why you do that, but I see little point in using any
invective, vulgarity or profanity against these people.
As far as they are concerned they are employees of a larger employer
who is actually responsible for their efforts. While we recognise that
what they are doing is totally wrong, it may not be so in their view.
They are just earning a living.
My reaction when they do come through and I have the time is to see
how long I can hold them on the phone without giving them any personal
information at all. If I can then keep the line open for longer then
the better it is.
It is their employers that the authorities need to get their hands on
and then confiscate all of their equipment, destroy it and then
restrict their movements in the usual way for criminals.

We got a withheld number yesterday, and when I answered, this person
told me he was from Microsoft, and advised me to check my computer.
Well I just love this sort of thing, so I gave him a real mouthful
which is not fit for repeating here. Sometimes I can give these
scammers a wind-up, but I didn't have time for it yesterday, so he
got an earful of abuse instead.
Wherever
possible, people should reveal their number, but those who are ex
directory often won't.
Kind regards,
Jackie Brown

fair point, it's a difficult one in that case. I always tend to give
my mobile number to hospitals and doctors, at least if my phone reads
out that it's with held I can choose to answer or just divert them to
voicemail.
Most
medical centers do tend to leave voicemails.
cheers,
Mo.

Hi John.
I would block calls from international numbers and also calls from
with held numbers. Your provider should be able to do this. since
i've done this, touch wood we've not had any nusence calls.

Hello list,me
I am not sure if this is off-topic, but I am sure the moderator

know if it is.claim
I am registered with both the Telephone Preference Service and the
Mobile Preference Service which keeps the majority of nuisance
calls from hitting me. However I do still get a number of
international calls which do get through. That is, as I understand
it, because TPS and MPS only cover calls emanating from within the UK.
Both yesterday and today I have had a call from a withheld and an
international number that claims to be working on behalf of TPS.
They
to have been notified by my phone supplier that I have beenas
receiving international calls which turn out to be scams. After a
few moments of discussion with them and, of course, with no
information being given by me they have both abruptly hung up. In
my view that proves they were both scams.
So don't get caught by this new one.
I am aware that I can get things like call blockers and also units
