Do what we all do - get a TAM, or a TrueCall unit!

We have a BT phone that can block calls with no number I have resisted the temptation to activate for a while but yesterday whilst attempting to work at home I got 14 calls from dubious sources all purporting not to be selling anything. Enough to make me activate the call bar.

Probably Talktalk trying to flog you something.

I agree that its likely to be as Bizzie Lizzie suggests -

Just tagging on to say that my 1471 message tells me when a caller withheld their number, so it's likely your caller is an autodialler from overseas, Danielle.

Any time I pick up the phone and theres no-one replies to my first "hello" I just put the phone down. It happens regularly - I also put the phone down if I get a call which starts with "am I speaking to the householder" or "am I speaking with Mrs full name and middle name balletshoes". I didn't solicit any of these companies to call my home number, so I don't feel the need to communicate with any of them.
