    Was it a landline number or a mobile? Is the number in regular use? I heard recently in the media that numbers are being reused after disconnection, could be another customer given the it. Another posibility would be that the owner of the number has call forwaring setup to another number, possibly a number in error.

    It was a landline to a mobile and yes the mobile had call forwarding turned on but it was to another mobile that was not the phone that rang if you get me,

    I need to be able to find the number that my house phone actually connected to and not the one it rang if that is possible

    Hi eiei0,


    Thanks for getting in touch.

    Unfortunately, if a number has been diverted you would be unable to find out the number your call has connected to as this would have been set up by the customer themselves.

    I do apologise.

    Thanks,
    Anna

    Hi eiei0,

    If the number you rang dialled through to another mobile number you are unsure of, the customer would have to contact our customer care team on freephone 1901 and we would have to check what mobile number the customer has it currently diverted to. 

    Thanks,
    Leanne.
