What kind of number is 07009 05436?
07009 05436 is a UK 070 "personal number", and this number block was originally allocated by Ofcom to GCI Network Solutions Limited — and despite looking like an 07 mobile, it is not one.
070 numbers forward to wherever the owner chooses and can cost the caller up to around £3.40 per minute. Fraudsters deliberately use them because victims assume they are dialling a normal mobile. Treat an unexpected 070 missed call as a likely scam and avoid calling it back.
Cost to call: 070 "personal numbers" look like mobiles but are NOT — calls can cost up to around £3.40 per minute plus an access charge. They are a well-known scam vector precisely because people mistake them for 07 mobiles.
