Reverse Phone Lookup in the UK — Recent Community Reports

Check unknown UK numbers with recent reports from across London, Manchester, Birmingham, Edinburgh and more. Learn from others and share your experience.

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.

447405561215 Spam SPAM

Unsolicited request to add my number on WhatsApp from an unknown source.

447743796065 Scam

Note: returning calls to unknown numbers is risky. Scammers often use thousands of autogenerated UK landline and mobile numbers from abroad, especially India. A callback usually leads to a dead‑end message, but can also charge you heavily and flag your number as a target for further scams. Occasionally the number belongs to an innocent party, causing annoyance and potential spam reports. Legitimate calls are rare.

Even though the number is TSP‑registered, I still receive scam calls that never leave a voicemail. Stay wary of these fraudsters.

441179903372 Scam Sam

A man calling himself Sam claimed to work for a TV maintenance firm linked to BT, Virgin and Sky, asking about TV or broadband problems. When I said I'd contact my provider, he stammered and, after insisting he represented those companies, guessed my landline provider incorrectly and then slammed the phone.

I got a dubious text saying I owed a parking charge, with a link to enter my registration, but it gave no details of where or when the alleged offence happened.
