I had this issue as well, normally with no one on the other end. This all stopped once i ported my normal phone number over.

Whilst your mistake was in buying a new phone from phones4u who don't have the best of reps, this may not be of their doing especially if the callers never asked for you by name.
A lot of these insurance companies will buy a contract phone with a brand new number and then call all the numbers surrounding that number as they should all also be brand new numbers |

DO NOT go to Phones4u.
I went there a while back with my gf to help her get a new phone and the rep was very pushy. We agreed that me and the gf would go for a quick cuppa to think things over. About 10 minutes later, she received 2-3 calls from the rep, including one voicemail asking her to please come back and complete the sale. We went to Carphone Warehouse and got her a Galaxy S. |
