Theres a strange thing !

Evans Electric · Feb 4, 2018

The phone just rung , I Googled the number , the usual sales carp .

This prompted me , don't know why , to Google my own landline No. There are a couple of entries , created by :C    that announce that the number relates to Evans Electric ... followed by ... Address....etc .

Then two strange things :

1) Some pictures of NICEIC , NAPPIT , logos etc and finally a picture of my local Denmans branch which I've used for years. How do they know I use this branch ??

2) The following lettuced which I repeat verbatum  , complete with odd English.

In Birmingham was started the enterprise called Evans Electric. The address is................... Evans Electric company zeroes on two branches, Electrics & Elect. Contracting & Electrical Services.

They are the best in the business. There can't be a place for regrets but for happiness if you have chosen that company. Convince yourself that this enterprise Evans Electric has the best things& their staff will be always ready to solve your every wish .

:C

Another entry has a comment from someone who says we are rude & pushy and ...Martin :C doesn't want to quote if he's not getting the work . Or words to that effect.

Who the hell is Martin and I sincerely hope I have never been rude and pushy in my life !!!! (There is a local, bigger firm called Evans Electrical    ) Whether they have a Martin who is rude & pushy I don't know .

I take it your numbers are not ex-directory or are these business numbers? I've just googled both landline and mobile and it seems I don't exist on the inter Web? Yippee.

Not ex - directory Sharpie , I'm in the B,ham phone book under my name .

I was in Yellow pages for a short while but I'm sure that was cell phone only .

I'll go back and note where they originated from . Back in a jif .

Just taken a look . One is from Companies- gb.com Birmingham electricians. :C

One from Loc - Birmingham ...Agricultural materials Retail & Consumer . :C

And Yell . :redcard

Its the Denmans branch picture that puzzles me .

I think not being ex directory will make your number easily available. How they link it to agriculture is interesting. The denmans link may just be pot luck?

@Evans ElectricDo you have a 'smart' phone with gps & wifi?

I used to have.my old work phone setup so google would follow me everywhere and leave digital breadcrumbs everywhere I went.

It got quite annoying, but it was quite interesting what it would pick up.

For example if I was stuck in traffic in a certain area it would recommend a coffee shop that I went to once that had been closed for at least 2 years.
