This number called repeatedly, when I asked who I am speaking to they put the phone down in my ear without responding.

This number calls and lets it ring 4 times before ending the call. This is the exact number of rings that all the cold calling / robo call / automated dialling systems use before they terminate the call in order to then try again later. I only ever answer my phone after 4 rings if it is an unknown number.

Missed call from 0877406101. Tried to call back and got a "the number you have called does not exist" message which is typical of outbound only call centres. Have to assume it's a telemarketing caller.
