"Man asked for husband by name, but I asked who he was. From 'Eco House' about funding. Told him we were TPS registered and he shouldn't have called. He argued it was not cold-calling. I said it was. He said he'd put a "do not call" notice on the record. This is the 13th call from a Core Telecom Ltd hosted/rented out number since 26 June - all different numbers across the UK. On the others, no message left when answerphone kicked in. He said that was a call-centre function - ring off if they don't get a human voice after so many rings. Reputable companies would leave a message. As for the Reading area code, it was a very northern accent!"

Latest reports
"Sick to the back teeth of phone calls from numbers hosted by/rented out by Core Telecom Ltd, from so many different places across the UK (11 since 24 June) where no message is left when the answerphone kicks in. High time Core Telecom were fined for permitting such calls. I don't have the time to report each individual one to OfCom."
"No message left when answerphone kicked in. 10th such call from a "Core Telecomm" number (all different: Nottingham, Leeds, Manchester, Liverpool, Edinbro', Tyne & Wear, London-2, Gloucester, Bath) since 24 June. Very suspicious, and harassing from Core Telecomm, facilitating such 'robot?' calls."
"Won't stop calling. No message left when answerphone kicked in except "Thank you for calling." Typical call-centre robot response. Will block number, but they'll call again using another number. We're TPS registered too. 8th such call from number rented out/hosted by Core Telecom Ltd since end June. High time such companies were fined."
"Answerphone picked up but only said "Thank you for calling" - no actual message. Typical robocall scam. This is the 5th call from a number on Core Telecomm Limited since 24 June, all from different numbers. Going to block it but they'll just call again. These telecom companies renting out numbers for scams should get fined just like the actual scammers do."
"Felt like a scam. Rang off when answerphone kicked in. No message left except "Thank you for calling" , which is a typical call-centre robot scam call. 3rd such call in 5 days from different numbers operated by Core Telecom Ltd. and 9th such call from different numbers in 25 days. Time the Telecom companies that rent out/host these numbers were fined."
