Try these types of sites and key in the phone number:

who calls me . com

or

reverse phone detective . com

I have had a couple of numbers calling me, 0800 0323911 & 0800 0131088, I have tried BT, and the links left above but to no avail, all I get is silence.

Any help in finding the companies responsible would be greatly appreciated

The first number is probably BT the second is NTL - but if the numbers have been moved (ported to another network) since Ofcom allocated them we can't tell without doing a formal request.

If you are being pestered by calls from those numbers BT can bar them.

An electrician has done a botched job on my premises and is now avoiding my calls. I have his name and number but silly me - no business name or address!
(he advertised in the Hampstead and Highgate local paper) - Any way of tracking down the business address. I want to take it legal?
His name is Nick and his number is 07737444513

Hi Guys

Im trying to find out the owner of a landline number. I have been getting random silenced calls from them, iv tryed ringing back but no answer. Can someone help me please? The number is 0161 6102140.

 

[cjd]

That number belongs to Virgin Media, I suggest you give them a call and tell them you are being harassed by silent calls from that number.

My daughter is being called by this phone number and keeps getting hung up on by it. Can anyone help? who does this number belong too 07541211327 ?????

Many thanks

worried Dad

 

[cjd]

I assume you've tried calling it?

It's owned by 02 - if it's a nuisance, call them and ask for their help.

Oftel records show that numbers starting 07541 2 are allocated to Telefonica O2 (UK) Limited. Note that due to number portability if an individual number has moved to a different operator this information is not publicly available.

 

[PMA8]

Yes, they just hang up! is any other way of finding who owns it???

 

[cjd]

Not without dealing with the telco who owns the number - 02 will have a department that deals just with nuisance calls; talk to them about it, they have policies on it.

If you do have a caller ID on your landline, it will be easily traced.

I am trying to find out the owner of an 0800 number that does not come up on Google. Anybody know how?

Thanks

 

[cjd]

I can probably tell you which telephone company 'owns' it - but I need to know what the number is

 

[BFIlady]

The number is 0800 0114808. Thanks

 

[cjd]

On the face of it that number range belongs to:

8000 11 4 Allocated TelXL Ltd

Can't tell much more than that :-(

 

Well she might still be alive and still looking.

Earl

I am indeed alive although 4 years older and bit greyer

I love that this thread is still going strong!

 

[cjd]

There's a story behind every number - we don't get it hear it tho' ;-)

 

[Johnnn]

Can anyone tell me how to find out which telecoms provider owns a particular number. BT tell me they don't but won't say who does.
Thanks
John

 

[cjd]

If you,d like to PM me the number, I can check it for you.

I run a B and B and recently had an unpleasant guest stay. He was a conman and was referred to me by the Vicar [who was going to pay the bill]. The American guy stayed, borrowed my phone, used my laptop and then whilst I was out, burgled the house and left. Not fun. However I do have some UK mobile phone numbers that I need to trace [but not call] and an email that I need to find out if it is active. Would some of you wizards be able to help - my police are too short staffed but it has all been reported. Thanks, Charlie.

 

[CeeGee]

After some help please after being conned in my B and B. The "American" man stayed for a few days having lost his wallet and being referred here by the vicar [who was going to pay the bill]. During his time here he borrowed my land-line to call 4 mobile numbers and used my laptop to report his theft to Fed Ex. I left the house on a job and when I returned, he had gone with my laptop, money, Jewellery and keys. I need to trace who he called and investigate his yahoo email address. Suggestions would be most welcome, the Police are "too busy". Thanks, Charlie.

 

[cjd]

Call the numbers.

 

[S-Marketing]

Call the numbers.

That's what i was going to suggest, but would only be accused of being sarcastic.

Probably is the quickest way of finding out who he called though.

 

[cjd]

It's fast, cheap and legal.

All other methods have a problem with at least one of those.

 

[CeeGee]

Thanks, I guess it is a 1471 as a salesperson for a well known double glazing company. That is about as widespread as I can get. Point noted on the "other" methods. Charlie.

 

[ThePublisher]

Could somebody please check and see if they can find out who owns a number for me? My customers are being contacted by somebody trying one of the well known advertising scams, and for once we have a telephone number.

 

[cjd]

I can tell you which telephone company owns the number so that you can raise a complaint to them, but I can't tell you the end user of the number. PM me if you don't want it in the public view.
