Question Anybody recognise this telephone number???

Hi all,


Does anybody recognise this telephone number?

02077932681

Somebody called Mark has called my next door neighbour about 15 minutes ago!

They are wanting me to call back. Needless to say, I won't be calling anybody without any details of who they are or what they are calling about!

Even my neighbour said "it sounds fishy!"

Any ideas?

Many thanks in advance, Jeff.

I've just tried phoning, making sure I dialled 141 first! There was a womans voice on a voicemail saying to leave a name, message and a number and they'd call back - nothing to say whether it was a company or anything [although it didn't sound like a personal answerfone message]

Red face Re: Anybody recognise this telephone number???

Hello den and pj,

I tried calling as well and got the same woman on voicemail. Also tried a search and also came up with nothing.

Is it a London number?

I have a sneaky feeling that it might be Link Financial!

Cheers, Jeff.

I've just seen your other thread Jeff, and looked Link financial up - the only number I can find for them, other than 0800 numbers, is an 0208 number, but you could be right.

Try calling them again in business hours, just make sure you dial 141 first to withhold your number!

Angry Re: Anybody recognise this telephone number???

Hello again,

Thanks again people.

Yes I think I will give them another call perhaps tomorrow. Of course I will not be revealing who I am (if indeed I do at all), until they tell me who they are and the nature of their business.

I think this call will end up just going in circles!

TTFN, Jeff.

Guys, I am a bit new to all of this but can I just ask why would somebody ring your neighbour and ask for you ? Is this a tactic by using the phone book to track you down ? Personally, if anybody I don't know called my house and asked for a neighbour I would refuse and tell them to go away !! having said that it is my view now I have discovered the CAG and trust no-one from any financially linked insitution, before the day that happened I would have just been very confused and thought they were trying to sell me something !!

Jeff - I received a letter from Asset Link Capital (Link Financial) last week - the number on there is 0207 793 2699 - so very similar. Hope this helps. Jackie

I just phoned and got through, asked for 'Shiva Patel', and the guy said 'hang on, maybe, I'll check' - I said I thought I must have got the wrong number, who was I calling? He says 'Link Financial'.

So yes, you've got a hound on your heels. Red Deer, over and out.

Jeff.
I think some of the Mods should start a new thread dedicated to these telephone numbers. I have ex dir ones for Lowells and Robinson Way and some others I cant track. A good ploy is to ring them from a public call box
