Ok, well just tried to google the telephone code and found this

 

RealBusiness [net]work

 

So if anyone knows which county owns .co.za then maybe you'll know where the call came from.

 

Thinking about it, I probably haven't helped at all and just confused matters.

Seems they want to chase your hide for any debts and make money - THEN make moremoney chasing your bank charges? Seems a dodgy racket if ever I heard of one.

 

Could report it to ICO, FOS, OFT & Trading Standards type of people maybe they'll look at this shower of leeches - can't be fair them phoning people at work. They are obviously using your "personal information" incorrectly - ICO might already know of these people if others have complained. Shame they don't put this stuff in writing isn't it?

I have been getting calls also from this number. 02711 200 3600. I am not picking up as I know that it is something to do with finance. There is a brokerage service on the web that is illegally passing on details to finance companies without consent. You fill in a form asking for a quote and they say they will not pass on your details without your consent which in untrue as I have had letters and searches on my credit report which are now under investigation.

 

Beware! Do not be tempted to take out any offer with a Debt Management Agency (they dont work and you may end up paying more) or from a Finance Company like Welcome Finance (the lender that illegally searched my credit report) as you could be paying interest rates at 45% APR.

I have had this call aswell, i asked BT to look into it because when i tried to return the call it said it didnt exist! It baffled BT who couldnt explain the mysterious number. You dont happen to owe money to MBNA by any chance?????

I had a call this morning - Bank Holiday Monday of all days! - and a couple of missed ones on Friday. They've been calling 2 of my numbers that only Yes Loans have been given. The chap would only give me his first name, and asked for me by first-name. He said it was a "business call" but wouldn't give me any information until I confirmed my name. I simply said "do not call this number again and hung up".

My usual reply to cold calls and those I do not want are to ask for their full-name and "permission to call" reference number. Obvisouly they don't have one, so that triggers me obtaining all the info I can and then wasting a bit of their time - they're usually scared-off and say they won't contact me again.

 

Co-incidentally, it's now just over 30 days since I registered my mobile on the TPS, so hopefully calls like this should stop. Already had 3 Mobile ringing me last week insisting I was on a contract (new PAYG phone since 1999!) and that they could save me money.
