ITV competition number?

I keep getting a call from 0206564956. Does anyone know if this is an ITV number?

Thanks,
Flo

    Have you tried answering the call to see who's on the other end?
    Google however suggests it's Wolfgang Eichler from Duisburg

    Google brings up an Erotic Photographer called Wolfgang Eichler.
    Thank you to everyone who posts competitions and good luck to everyone who enters.

    I haven't picked up my phone as i didn't recognise the number, but I have tried calling back and the line is dead. I've tried googling ithe number aswell but not had much luck apart from a link to somebody called Wolfgang Eichler who's based in Germany. Very strange!! I was thinking it was an ITV number as it has a London area code of 020 but maybe it's something completely unrelated. Wishful thinking probably as I have entered a few competitions recently

    020 code isn't unique to ITV maybe someone from London is called you, a friend.

    maybe accident claims 4U

    I think the ITV winning phone calls come from 0207 numbers
  • Ah ok. I didn't recognise the number and I rarely get calls from an 020 number so I thought there might be a chance it was ITV. Oh well! I will look out for an 0207 number in future.

    Thanks all,
    Flo

    Try a "Reverse phone book" web. EG http://who-called.co.uk. If you put in the number, you can see what other people are saying about it. Usually PPI stuff, but very useful to do.

    Best of luck!

    Unfortunately companies can now buy 02 numbers to suggest they're located in London.
    In my experience they're often they're PPI or similar :(

    Some will call and move on so you stand a chance of missing out if you do not answer the phone, also some calls just show a switchboard number and they may not know who called you if you try calling back.
