This block — 0116 330 XXXX — was allocated by Ofcom to Digitech Solutions Global Limited in 2012. Digitech Solutions Global Limited either operates the numbers directly or sub-allocates them to resellers and downstream carriers, which is why a single 0116 330 XXXX prefix can be used by many different organisations. You can verify any allocation against Ofcom's National Telephone Numbering Plan, which is updated weekly.
Some calls from blocks like 0116 330 XXXX are actually one-ring 'wangiri' calls — the line rings once and disconnects, hoping you'll call back. While wangiri is more common from foreign numbers, UK number-spoofing means 0116 330 XXXX-style ringbacks are not unheard of. Don't return missed calls from unknown numbers without checking them first.
If a 0116 330 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.
