"You have dialled an incorrect number" calling Tesco

hexa-db — Tue, 18 Mar 2025 16:16:48 GMT

When trying to call a few local Tesco Pharmacy branches I get a recorded "You have dialled an incorrect number" message. This happened with 3 different branches from my EE mobile but worked fine from a landline so it's clearly an EE/mobile issue.
One of the numbers was "0117 291 5991"

Is there any way that this would get sorted without having to spend hours on the phone?

That number connects to a ringtone from my EE mobile.

Which part of the country are you in, roughly?

Weird - trying again today and it works.

Must be the usual EE reliability....

Sounds like the called party potentially had an issue with their incoming interconnect.
