What a difference a digit makes

Got in to see a missed call on the 'phone, 1471 revealed the number 01634401221. Googled the number and it was the Fedex parcel tracking number, heart starts beating a little faster.........

Then hubby pointed out that I had Googled 016344401221 (one extra 4) the number that called was actually the Telegraph Media group touting for subscriptions :(

So near yet so far :o
