UK numbers: context and signals
Unsure about a UK caller? Find fresh community reports to judge unknown calls or texts. In London, Manchester, Birmingham, Edinburgh or Glasgow you’ll see legitimate callbacks (banks, clinics, deliveries) alongside waves of automated or misleading contacts. Area codes like 020, 0161, 0121, 0131 are not reliable for location due to portability/VoIP — use them as context, not proof.
What to do: if unsure, return calls via the official number on the company site/app, check in‑app notices, and don’t share one‑time codes. Use device filters/blocks and, if available, carrier tools (EE, O2, Vodafone, Three). Share a short factual note here so others can decide faster.

Spam SMS flooding in from this number with fake offers. Annoying waste of time. Block without hesitation.
My phone rejected the call from this number. I don’t know anyone in Scarborough and wasn’t expecting a call. #### it.
The call was from a unknown number and was harrasing me alot!
No response was given, suggesting it was likely another scam, possibly related to insulation services, similar to the previous two experiences
The issue lies in the fact that she cannot reach me directly, as my calls go straight to voicemail, yet I can contact her without any problems; it's a result of O2's systematic removal of my data during my attempt to terminate the contract, despite being out of contract, and their subsequent theft by continuing to charge me the same amount.
