Hey,

Just wondering if anyone knows a landline for 'Work in Mind Consulting' based in Hindley, Wigan? Their number is 0845 680 0567

Kind Regards

MSMark

The website of the organisation in question is usually a good place to start: workinmind-consulting.co.uk

A full address would be useful. MSMark, you say that it is based in Hindley, but what is the address? If you do not know the address, then why do you say that it is in Hindley? Where did you get that piece of information from?

The website's contact page gives a PO Box:

Work in Mind- Consulting Po Box 560 Wigan WN1 9DT Phone 0845 680 0567 Fax 0871 900 5494 Email: Suzanne@workinmind-consulting.co.uk

I then looked at the Whois for workinginmind-consulting.co.uk (which is a look-up of the registration information for that internet address):


Quote:

Domain name:          workinmind-consulting.co.uk      Registrant:          Suzanne Kathryn Guest      Registrant type:          UK Individual      Registrant's address:          The registrant is a non-trading individual who has opted to have their          address omitted from the WHOIS service.

Only non-trading individuals can opt to have their addresses omitted from the Whois...  :-?


Based on this, I can only but wonder if Suzanne Guest trades from home. The 0845 number may:

1. go through to her mobile, or;
2. it could go through to her private landline, or;
3. it could be delivered over the internet (by VoIP), or;
4. it could go straight to an answerphone where messages are e-mailed to her.

If it's 1, then perhaps adzha has found the alternative. If it's 2, then unless the number is in the public domain, then it is not likely to be found. If it's 3 or 4, then there is likely to be no alternative to be found. Or it could be a combination of more than one, perhaps depending on time of day and/or whether one mode gets an answer (for example, it could go to a landline and then to the mobile if there is no answer on the landline).

In short, I am thinking that there is little chance of getting an alternative on this one (apart from the mobile number).

The prefix 0845 680 is allocated to Zimo Communications Ltd.

Thanks, I appreciate your efforts.
Reason I ask is that I work for a charity called Making Space (hence MS Mark) who try to help people with profound physical, mental or learning problems :). This will help us with sending people for assesment and hopefully treatment

Send the lady an e-mail asking for an alternative number, perhaps stating the reason why. As she is the business owner, she is more likely to be understanding of the issue and more likely to be in a position to offer an alternative.

In some cases where small businesses (including sole traders) are involved, a posting on this site has resulted in them coming forward with an alternative or even replacing their 08 Business Rate number with a lower cost one.

If you do get an alternative for this (or any company), please do let us know by posting in the forum and I or one of my colleagues will see that the number gets listed.  :)
