Watch out for

The original network tells you nothing about who owns a particular mobile today.

The range holder isn’t necessarily the caller. Ofcom gives numbers to providers in blocks, and people and businesses can take their number with them when they switch. To find out who actually called, check the full number.
TV and radio numbers. Ofcom reserves 07700 900000 – 900999 for use in TV and radio drama, so the numbers you hear on screen don’t belong to real people.
