Received an answer phone message to call them.
Think its probably a sales call but they don't usually leave a message.

Does anyone have any ideas

    Bit ambitious but unlikely! 0207 is a general London area code.

    If it's important they would have said what it was about in message or will call back. I'd just forget about it. Google not yielding any results so probably just a cold call.
  • I would probably call back using 141 to block my number....Curiosity would get the better of me! :)

    Don't know if this helps but found this info......

    0207 phone numbers are our best selling virtual number. 0207 phone numbers will make it look as if you have an office in central London (and we all know how expensive that is). Most of our customers buy these numbers for 2 reasons:- 1) So that that can attract customers from London and 2) The 0207 number makes them look more prestigious.

    Heck how can I program this phone to always ring at full volume and vibrate when a number from that range rings?! Lol how many of us just checked our missed calls? :o

    Oh btw my landline is 0207. The old school numbers are 0207 and 0208. Newer numbers are 0203 and mostly from cable companies and the like. You can get a virtual number pretty much on any local number across the nation.
