My wife got a call off a company today re our IVA. The woman who spoke to her said her name and company name real quick then started to bombard her with questions. My wife stopped her from talking long enough to ask where she got our name from and if they didn't know our circumstances then why is the phone call being instigated, she then asked for the name and company name. The woman then hung up on my wife (how rude lmao). She made a note of the number but we don't know how to do a reverse trace, she would really like to know who this company are so it can be posted on the forum to warn other members.
I guess I can't put the number on here, so just a link to how to reverse trace it for now would be helpful.

Go onto 'Whocallsme' - you should find out off there.

Unusual that, unless it is a new number that has only just started to be used.

I don't know of any other reverse directory sites unfortunately.

try just popping the number into the google search engine -- thgat sometimes produces results
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.

That was the first thing I did Foggy. It is one of the new 0203004 London numbers, that's as much as I know.

You may find that it isn't a real number. I had one the other day and when I called the number back it came up as unobtainable.

I have no intention of calling them back Paul, I was trying to find out who they are and name them on the forum (under 'scumbags').

The only reason I phoned was because it mentioned it on Whocallsme and said that the number was not a genuine UK number so I just wanted to check - and it wasn't!!
