Or letting us know? I have to say I am not sure it's the relevant place as were not looking for an alternative.

Reply #3 - May 2^nd, 2018 at 2:44am Any calls fron 01898 numbers are likely to be being spoofed by scammers as it is an unallocated UK exchange code , 0898 was used for premium rate calls ages ago before they swiched to the 09 range,

Does anyone honestly think they have that kind of time on their hands!

Reply #8 - May 14^th, 2018 at 8:37pm Talktalk customers now have the free benefit of CallSafe, a trueCall clone. For those who are content for all unknown callers to be challenged to identify themselves, this provides effective individual protection against most nuisance calls - certainly all automated calls.
