Strange missed call

Posted on 23 April 2007 in

Sitting in work on a Monday morning and I just received a call on my mobile phone from an unknown number: 0701 2183144. I didn't get to answer it as they hung up before my ringtone even had a chance to kick in - not that I would have answered that anyway…

Has anyone else ever had a call from this number before? A quick bit of research led me to an FAQ's page about uk telecom and it seems to be related to a company called Flextel who provide custom numbers mapped to other numbers.
