Sounds like the number is being pitched around as an official West Midlands Police line, yet callers report dead backs, vague claims, and no voicemail. That mix of inconsistent scripts and unreachable callbacks usually points to a spoof or call‑centre using a genuine police prefix to get attention. If you get a call, let it go to voicemail first; genuine officers will leave clear details and a callback number. Never share personal info or money, and if in doubt, hang up and dial 999 or your local police non‑emergency line to verify. A quick block on your phone can stop the nuisance.
Apparantly, my kid accedentally dialed 999 while messing with the phone, and the Police were checking in to make sure everything was alright. It's a legit number, so no need to worry - Jessica
This is a number the police call from if they can't get through using their withheld number.
This is Warwickshire West Midlands police.
Hi, it's the police. I just rang 101 to report a crime outside my house and an officer attended, then rang me on that number to collect more information etc.
Had calls from a private number and 01212657000, didn't answer because I think it's a fake number.
It's defenatly the police, not some people pretending!
Someone rang me saying they're West Midlands police.
This is a West Midlands Police number, no question about it.
Got a call from this number 0121 2657000 saying she's a police officer. She said my son had hit somone, but my son didn't hit anyone!?
I've had 2 missed calls from this number, no voicemail left. Tryed to call back, but it's a disconnected number. Waiting for the police to call me back! Will update if I manage to take a call from this number.
Simple solution: just ring 101 and ask.
I also got a call from this number at 5:11 am yesterday and they said they were the police. I think there should be a way to find out for shure who this line belongs to.
This IS the Police, no doubt about it.
This is a generic number for West Midlands police to call out to people. It's only a call-out line, so you can't call back. Best thing to do is call 101 and advise you've recieved a call. It's NOT a scam number, I know this because a DC called me from it and aranged to vist me, which they did. Please don't ignore this.
This number just rang me. It only rang once and ended before I could answer. While I was googling to see who had called, it rang again. I answered and waited a few seconds, then a male voice said... 'Yo Yo Yo who's this? Yo Yo Yo who's this? You've been sleeping with my missus - I know where you are'... I just laffd and the line went dead.
This is actualy a police number. My partner was arrested in Manchester and taken to West Midlands on remand until Monday. He called me from this number while he was in his cell.
Some people just dont understand how outgoing numbers work. Despait the police owning this number, people still dont get it.
Got a call from this number lastSunday. Guy claimes to be from West Midlands police but I coudnt return the call. Reported it to the police and they said it wasnt one of ther numbers.
Hey everyone, I've had a few calls from this number 0121 265 7000 over the weekend. Just spoke to the police and they told me it's not a real police number or anything to do with their call centre. West Midlands police told me to contact my mobile phone company and get this number barred from incoming calls. Apparently, it's being dealt with by their fraud team. Just a heads up, if a police officer calls you, they'll leave a message with a contact number and name to ring back. Otherwise, they'll vist you in person or send a letter. Don't beleeve the people saying it's a police number, I've phoned the police myself and they have no idear about this number. If you're getting calls from this number and are unsure, ring your local police station and report it. Hope this helps!
Dont be fooled by these fake police numbers! Ask them for ther badge number, devision, and supervisor's name and number. Real police officers dont call ahead and ask for your name.
Cant people just read the previous comments? The answer's already there.
Just got a call from this number - who is it?
Same here, no idear who this number belongs to.
Hey, I was exspecting a call from the police but got a missed call from this number. Can somone tell me how to get in touch with them?
Confirmed - the officer who called me was from Bournville station. This number is definatly used by the police.
Had a call from this number, guy said his name was DC Logan or Lawrance... tryed to call back but got a dead line.
Yeah, its West Midlands Police who use this number. They've called me a few times about a case I'm involed in.
Got a random call from this number - no clue who it was.
This number keeps ringin my phone and then I get more calls from unknown numbers... Geting annoying.
Had a sketchy call from this number, person claimes to be a Police Officer. This is rediculous, somthing needs to be done.
