Does anyone know what on earth "0442071010nnn"* is, it doesn't look like an allowable UK phone code, but has just come up on the Caller ID and 1471 (UK Numbers are usually 0115nnnnnnn[etc] and foreign are INTERNAT) and was one of them "Hi this is brenda you have won" [click] numbers.

*Last three numbers deliberatly blocked.

not sure but usually 0044207 I would guess would be a london number
as to why it showed up as a 044 is a strange code though .

Like jasonpaul says it's a London number that for some reason is presenting with the international dialling code. Try googling the number in 0207 or 020 7 format and see what you come up with. Just searching for 0207 1010 brings up a few results, for example a datacomms company and (slightly bizarrely) something that's maybe to do with the Home Office.
