Just had a call from Hannah on that number. Told me she'd been informed I'd had an accident.
I asked who had told her, she said the RT or road traffic authority.
I asked whose road traffic authority. She put the phone down.
Now to report it to the TPS.
How can I block the number?

With my phone (Note 3) I block the number by pressing on the number itself... and options appear. One of those is Block... I just select that...job done.

Nexus 5 does not have a native way of blocking, but McAfee mobile security does.
Number also reported to the information commissioners office. Couldn't report to TPS as they didn't give a company name! Also, TPS may give my details to the company as they progress my complaint. How odd.

Just found this app on Play Store. Not sure whether it would be any good to anyone?

The AVG Anti-Virus app will also block calls: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.antivirus&hl=en

I have just received a missed call from this number. Thankfully someone on this forum mentioned that it's one of those annoying calls so I have put them on my reject list and also deleted the number.

I had a cold call on my iPhone from “Hannah” on 02036349910 yesterday. It was an unsolicited marketing call claiming I had been involved in a recent car accident (which I had not). Online feedback sites suggest the number is the property of Injury Claim Law, 51 St Johns Street, London.
I was concerned that this organisation had obtained my private mobile phone number without my permission, had made an unsolicited call to me on it in order to market a service I did not request, stated that I had been involved in a car accident that had not taken place, and would pass my number on to other marketing companies.
I have since registered my phone number with the Telephone Preference Service (TPS), the free official opt-out register on which you can record your preference not to receive unsolicited sales or marketing calls. It is a legal requirement that all organisations (including charities, voluntary organisations and political parties) do not make such calls to numbers registered on the TPS unless they have your consent to do so.
Register on http://www.tpsonline.org.uk. You can enter a complaint about unsolicited calls on the website.

Unfortunately TPS has absolutely no control over calls that originate from abroad with no traceable number attached...:smileysad:
