I have been trying to phone a number and I am sure the one I have been given is incorrect, could be abroad
+44 703 & then seven more numbers
I could well be having a 'thick' day!

44 is country for the UK - so you need to dial 0703 ........."You were only supposed to blow the bl**dy doors off!!"0

Be careful. 0703 numbers are "personal numbers" and you will be charged around 50 p a minute. Usually these are used by scammers because you think that you are calling a mobile when you are not.(".)0

I think that you may be right about this, someone answered my advert in gumtree as I am looking for a house to rent. I got through and the person sounded very foreign, maybe oriental said he was in Dublin who I could hardly understand and I think was asking me for some money before I view the place to show I am really interested and not a time waster. I am sure I will do that! Some people must spend hours thinking these things up.
Thank you for your help I am sure you have saved me from being ripped offLoretta0
