phone number / calling id info, any ideas?

Post by Six-pack Speedshop »

Hi guys. Have a personal (nothing work related) situation with a guy living in the UK regarding an holiday apartment in Portugal and was wondering if anybody have some ideas regarding the following...

If the guy gets a call and he notices that the call is either from Portugal, Holland or private he won't answer the phone, and he wont respond to emails and phone message as well. Is there maybe some kind of 'automatic phone forwarder' service we can call from here that redirects the call through so he sees an UK phone number and hopefully do puick up his phone?

Thanks all!

That sounds dodgy. Is someone trying to rip you off?
I'm not aware of anything like that. Perhaps someone can call on your behalf from the UK?

Thanks for thinking along guys. Was just thinking out loud to see if there was something simple besides getting a UK phone or contact to check. Will go for that option it seems.

Skype has an option to call a regular phone number but I don't know how the calling number shows up.

Give me your phone number and the number of the guy in the UK and I'll phone him and tell him to answer his phone when he sees your number calling.
