A small share of 0113 100 XXXX traffic is automated — recorded-voice ('robocalls') from political polls, marketing pitches, or scams. Under UK rules, you must have opted in to receive automated marketing calls. If you're getting persistent automated calls from a UK number, report them to the ICO via ico.org.uk.
If a 0113 100 XXXX number called you and you're not sure who it was, the safest steps are: don't return the call until you've verified it (search the full number online first), don't share personal or financial details, and register the number with the Telephone Preference Service (TPS) if it's a marketing call. Persistent unwanted calls can be reported to Ofcom and the ICO. To block a specific number on most UK mobiles and landlines, you can also enable network-level call screening through your provider.
