Default Anyone able to look up who a mobile number is registered to?

Last couple of days had a missed calls from a number not in my phonebook, I text asking who it was and what they want - no reply, it rang again today but hung up before I could answer.

Its bugging me now

They would've left a voicemail or text back if important.

lol I kept ringing it back until some kid answered (rang it directly from call register) and they denied phoning my number, probably just mis-dialled a digit, don't think I'll hear from it again, god I'm paranoid!

Be careful its not a Sales ploy, I used to have a range of 07 numbers call my mobile at least once a week, everytime I went to answer it hung up.

I then got told about Companies who think you´ll call the number back to find out who it was and charge premium rates to the bill payer, so I rang one back from my work phone and it went through to a call centre, since then if I miss a call, they can call me back
