The only thing I found (by Googling) with the 0844 number on is
this PDF (page 124):
Quote:Contact details for the employee concierge
Telephone: 0844 8807757
Email: employees@ssg-net.com
Fax: 0870 6221348
When searching for this 0870 fax number, all I found was that file.
The
About Us page states:
Quote:Support Services Group was established in April 2000 as a supplier of risk and security management services to the private and public sector, deploying hundreds of staff nationally and operating through its divisional structure, the Group maintains a national office network based in Swindon, Derby and Glasgow with the Group 24 hour control room located in Bristol .
So they have other offices and perhaps calls are answered at one of them.

Here we have mention of Security Guarding Services Ltd, as mentioned by mainbass. The e-mail address gives the domain sgsinternet.co.uk and the website at
www.sgsinternet.co.uk is for Astute Security which gives its address as Kestral House, Trowbride and phone number 0845 22 66 488.
Two entries on Hotfrog link these companies:
So it would appear that there's definately a connection between all these companies and there is the possibility that the 0844 number quoted in the OP is answered at somewhere other than the Swindon address.
Not sure where this leaves us. Apart from to say that it would appear that this company has its 01/02 numbers well and truly hidden and only publishes 08 numbers.
