Tip: Try out our new Call Insider app. You can download it for free on Google Play.
How long has this service been running and who is it for?
The service was created in 2011 in the Czech Republic. It is an online forum where the users can share their experience with phone numbers, both annoying (mostly telemarketing, surveys) and useful (e.g. couriers, offices)..
Since the beginning, the service has been received very well, which led to localization into more languages. Nowadays, the forum exists in more than 20 languages and 34 countries throughout the world.
The service is intended for anyone who wants to identify the owner of an unknown phone number. The creators of the forum have also recently created the mobile app Call Insider for Android phones. This app, which is connected to the database of the website phonenumbers.ie, also allows users to automatically block telemarketing numbers.

Constant calling. Can’t work out who it is. I called back once in the middle of the night to see if there was an answer machine but it cut off.
I feel it’s a scam number .

If you try to call it back it pings out, so I'd concur its a scam call. Ironically Facebook(legitimate) insisted I supply my phone number on an account I've had for over 10 years the other day and now I'm receiving scam calls.
