found a good site after mother was conned by a text on her mobile - you can look up most numbers and it will tell you who it is and give you info on them - you can make complaints about any dodgy texts, etc you have had..........and find information on any number
looks very good and useful
also tells you any scams doing the rounds...

I complained to this organisation early in the year. After weeks of exchanging e-mails with them I realised that they weren't going to do anything, and that they weren't even reading my mails but just sending off standard replies.0

Its pityfull that ICSTIS who are supposed to govern premium rate services in the UK, cannot even be bothered to read the complaints they are supposed to investigate!:j Westcountry man0

also if you often get silent calls they might be computer generated from call centre diallers.... register at http://www.ukdatait.co.uk/cgi-bin/sgAddNumber.cgi to stop getting them.
This is a genuine website, I used to work for BT.
Theres my 2 pence...

Also can register specifically for silent calls with telephone preference service.0
