A fairly long time ago, by accident, I saw some trace/association stuff that I dont think i was supposed to see (Cellnet era). I've done a couple of stints at another telco and it *seems* to me, that if the motivation is there, it's not that hard at all to get the ID of a caller (CDR analysis etc).
I think the effort<>reward thing is not biased in your favour. If you're under GMP jurisdiction, then it might be easier to just move.... 😀
Why not harass the carrier that call originates from via Twitter ?
I reckon it would be pretty unpleasant. You'd have to put your own ear plugs in first mind 🙂
Failing that, the old cartoon punch down the phone would work...

The Whatsapp idea does work - used it myself from random numbers texting to see who it is.
Just save the number under any name, open Whatsapp, open their contact tab and you'd be surprised what pops up 😉
The Socratic Oath? At least they've replaced that old pish Hippocrates spouted.
soma_rich - MemberThe Police have the powers to find out who any number is registered to and who and when they have been calling. Quote Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000 at the Police and tell them to pull their fingers out as its a very simple thing for them to do.
Ironically, its RIPA that prevents the police getting all this information as and when they want. Quote it at them if you wish, but don't be disappointed if doing so doesn't have the effect you anticipate.
Probably not the solution you're looking for and if you've already changed the number then it's probably too late but if they're not withholding the number would getting a phone with a caller display help? At least that way you can not choose not to answer calls from the dodgy number, or in fact any number you don't recognise.
Christ that could actually be loud enough to blind someone in the ear.
[b]Ear[/b] cataracts? 😀
