Sound Advertising Ltd either operates the numbers directly or sub-allocates them to resellers and downstream carriers, which is why a single 070 2928 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.
Calls from 070 2928 XXXX sometimes link to 'parcel undelivered' or 'card details expired' courier scams. The caller asks you to confirm a delivery address or re-enter card details on a follow-up SMS link. Real UK couriers (Royal Mail, DPD, Evri) handle these via the apps you signed up to, not by phone.
If a 070 2928 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.
