I am getting several missed calls a day from this number!!
Anybody getting the same??
"Who Calls Me" website seems to imply it is something to do with Insurance, I did use Tesco Compare a week ago and since then loads of calls!!!!!

Sounds familiar, we were getting this number calling us every now and then until we changed phone providers and got a new number (not because they were calling us lol).
I used to enjoy messing about and wasting the time of companies phoning up to sell rubbish.0 -
the company is called lead x they use an automatic dialling system to basically abuse people into having a quote if you wud like 2 complain use their own business number 0844 871 4300

Its he quotes from the comparison site that are causing it, try putting a made up number in future0 -
If it's the lead x I'm thinking of, the car insurance company I used to work for were in partnership with them for people who's cars we couldn't insure (prestige, imported, etc.).0

"Tesco" said the company on top of the quote list would only be the one that would ring.
I finally answered the phone and it turned out to be via Budget Insurance. (because this time last year I requested a quote!!!)
I told them I don't want calls on this number!!! and they hung up!!!0 -
I luv cats - I think Budget insurance (and some of their brands) are on Tesco Compare, they were definitely on places like CompareTheMarket and GoCompare when I worked there.0
