  • My mobile number starts with 07905. If it was a premium rate number it would normally start with 09. It's probably someone ringing a wrong number.

    thanks guys after the call my hubby listened to see if there was a message left on 1571 but there wasn't but after going to use the phone this morning there was a message from the caller i dont think it was a wrong no. i think it was someone who pressed maybe a no. stored in their phone cos it was what sounded like a conversation between a few drunken women:rotfl: i aint got a clue who it can be as i dont have the mobile no. it rang with, in my phone but they obviously have my home no.:confused: but all in all least it wasnt a crank call even though it was annoying at the time (being late):rolleyes:

    funny enough, I once received a phone call from HK...the person didn't know the call. I think he touched his mobile by mistake. He was in a pub talking with another guy regarding his marriage...I know I should not, but it was quite fun to listen. I hope that call didn't cost him a fortune.
