Witheld Phone Numbers

[jacklee]

I receive several calls from 'withheld' numbers - mostly rubbish calls.
I always need to answer because my hospital calls me on 'withheld'- seems her odd.
Anyone have this problem?

Unfortunately, many "official" calls come from these hidden numbers...it's often the policy of the organisation doing the calling.

I have the same problem jacklee, for a few weeks now somone rings my mobile around 9.30ish each morning. At the moment a friend is quite ill and I am half expecting someone to ring me. The withheld calls are usually about PPI claims and I can't stop them calling.

Thanks all for your response.
Really is a nuisance - had three today but one was genuine (spelling?)

This is a modern plague, and its about time something as done...just what I have no idea but these calls are ruining peoples lives.
