I just realised that the company I thought it was by the top info, it isn't as that's an advert, as it changes. But the information under that has not changed.

Received a call 3 hours ago from this number and I tried to call it back,(I'm expecting several calls from important places) Whilst waiting on hold I decided to search it am not expecting a call from Romford or thermal insulation so I felt I should just hang up and if it is one of my important calls they'll ring me back. Hopefully. But based on the information given here I'm dubious about this number!
