I notice that we have many unverified numbers on the database for John Lewis and only one verified (for Waitrose Wine).

I am delighted to say that I can verify that  01236 634444 works for calling Customer Services 0845 604 9049 .

Thanks for reporting this. I've tidied up the entries for John Lewis.

01236 634444 goes straight through to an operator.
01698 545454 says that it is for international enquiries, but then gives options and is suitable for UK callers.

I have listed both of these with appropriate messages to convey these facts.
