Golden rule is that if you get a call from a mobile you don't recognise do not answer it. If it is important they will leave a message. I now block all unrecognised mobile numbers and all numbers beginning with 0161, 03 and some others. Every day I am informed that I get between 5 and 15 calls to blocked numbers - no messages so obviously not important.I don't care about your first world problems; I have enough of my own!1
