Phone call from EE

[RITA_N]

Hello!

I have just received a phone call from this number 01915161645 the person claimed that he is from EE sales and wanted to ask me about my pack. Then, I told him the pack I bought and what it includes and he said okay one of my colleagues will call you later. Is it a scam call?

I has an call from 01915161645 today and I did not pick up because my phone saying it was an Fraud

I know that not EE because why would EE call from an number that not even listed by them when I check this form saying what the number they call from

They only gotten half of the number Right > 01915 unless you find the number was never inside the list

Hope this helps.

Tell me where is the number in that LIST

Than why people on WHO-call-me has problems with the number

if this was an EE number why was people saying it was an Virgin mobile

Why would EE Partner with Virginmedia mobile users

How about you tell the the middle number which has

0191  >516<   1645

Where does the 516 goes

From EE team said is was from EE Partner, ResQ:

@AntGamer1 : Spaces within written phone nos. are insignificant; they don't count. The no. "01915161645" is the same as the "01915 161 645" no. in that list of EE direct partners, which in this case is a landline belonging to ResQ.

The individual parts of a no., like "516", have no special significance; they are just part of its routing thro' the telephone network. The only identifiable part of a phone no. is its dialling code at the beginning, in this case "0191" which identifies it as a Newcastle Upon Tyne  no. As per BT's official Phone Book:

        Newcastle Upon Tyne

0191 Area Code

United Kingdom - Newcastle Upon Tyne                     Area Code

Dialling in the UK                                                                0191

Those "WhoCalledMe" sites on the Web are not particularly reliable & certainly less to be trusted than the actual site that owns or uses that no.

How can a landline such as this be identified as a Virgin mobile no. It just does not make sense.
