Thank you so much Raven.. 
Now I know not to answer it.. They probably want me to go for a bigger package.. 
They are certainly not offering me a rebate.. 😁😁

It may not even be VM although if you actually are with them it could well be. Caller IDs can be faked. As fast as you block a number you'll get calls from a different one. Many give up quite quickly but I regularly get one that keeps going for ages. I'm loath to just decline it as that shows the number is active.

Can't you block it? I have accumulated quite a list of spam numbers I blocked over the years. They can call me all they want but I don't hear it.

There's a website called Who Called Me which is useful

Scrumps,  this is the one I use to check numbers:

As Raven said,  can you not block it on your phone?
Mind you,  like Klondie also said,  if it is spammers,  they only need change their number by one digit and they will get round your block.

Thank you..
I can block a number on my phone but i am loath to do so unless I know (for sure) that it is spam..
 Thank you for the link Mups.. That is the one I shall use..

American but it's pretty much the same worldwide. Some of the tools mentioned probably won't be available on your phone. What it all comes down to is don't answer.

[Mups]

Thanks Klondie,  but that American voice, and nattering so fast as well,  got on my wick before half way.

[klondike]

Not surprised. The long and the short of it is don't answer and use any tools on your phone that you can to stop the calls didn't ringing.

The exception I make is if I'm expecting a call such as from the doctor which will normally come up withheld.

I haven't had any today despite the persistent ones the last few days.
