    Why could that be a problem?


    No, post away, it will help people in the future, as long as it's not someone's home number.
    It's PAC not PAC Code, it's MAC not MAC Code, it's PIN not PIN Number, it's ATM not ATM Machine, it's LCD not LCD Display, it's DVD not DVD disc... It's no one not noone, It's a lot not alot, It's got not gotten... Panini is the plural of panino - there is no S!!

    It belongs to http://www.teleperformance.co.uk/ who do surveys for major companies etc etc. If you email them with your number they will take you off their list.
  • Just pm me the number. I'll call them and find out who they are :mad: lol
    My mind not only wanders .......... sometimes it leaves completely

    there were more last week, at least one per day.

    I phoned the number and found out that it's a company called Leadx

    http://www.leadx.com/

    They kindly informed me that my number had been passed to them by Budget car insurance after I did an [edit]Confused[/edit] search for some quotes.

    They agreed to remove my details.

    Based at Altrincham, Chesire, will try to find a national number.
    From Google:
    LeadX Ltd Lynnefield House, Church Street, Altrincham, Cheshire, WA14 4DZ https://www.leadx.com

    Off to say no to 0870.

  • I have been getting calls all of today from this number, Google search suggests it is connected to an Ebay seller. My advice is: if you don't know the number, don't answer it. If someone wants to talk to you they will leave a message on the voice mail.

    There is also a website https://www.mpsonline.org.uk where you register your phone number to stop nuisance calls.
