Hello,
I am curious to know where the phone numbers starting with 01 77... come from. I recently received a call from a number that began with these digits, but I didn't have time to write it down completely, so I have no idea who it might be!
Thank you for your responses!!

Hello,
Telephone communications are regulated by ARCEP (Autorité de Régulation des Communications Électroniques et des Postes). Search for ARCEP via Google. On the consumer tab, enter the first 6 digits of the number that is bothering you. You will obtain the name of the telephone operator. There are currently 972: FranceTelecom, Bouigues, Free, SFR, etc.
I was disturbed at night, receiving up to 10 calls, and probably several hundred other subscribers of FranceTelecom were also disturbed, by a robot testing the applications of a salesperson or a telemarketer, while my number was on the Orange list. ARCEP pressured SFR, the salesperson's operator. SFR took the necessary steps with its client, and I am no longer disturbed.
The procedure is cumbersome but effective:
- File a complaint with the gendarmerie or the police (It's not easy, but you must insist).
- Send a copy of the complaint to ARCEP and the concerned telephone operator.*
- Send a letter to the deputy of your constituency asking them to submit a bill lifting the current anonymity of telephone calls. As a good politician, they will respond off-topic, but the idea will take root. Spain has made it mandatory, about 3 months ago, for telephone operators to reveal the caller's details. Why does the French legislation allow the opposite?
Best regards.
