” It’s horrendous violation of privacy. I do think it has been going on for a long time?”

We hear about scandals all the time whether it’s regarding celebrities or politicians. But the latest scandal making the rounds involves Britain’s biggest selling newspaper. And now it’s led to the whole paper being shut down and some of its staff being arrested. Let’s have a look at how journalists chasing a story can become the story themselves.

The business of news is all about getting the big stories before anyone else. To do that, journalists / others will spend hours interviewing sources and going through information, trying to create a report that could be headed with that all important word – ‘exclusive’.

For news organisations, that one word can mean bigger audiences and therefore bigger profits. But in London, the chase for that one word has gone to crazy and illegal lengths. Tabloid newspapers here are filled with celebrity scandal on a daily basis. And whichever newspaper uncovers it – gets the readers. But that pressure led not only an invasion of privacy, but to some journalists acting illegally. It wasn’t just celebrities who were hacked. Last month more victims were discovered, including victims of crime, the families of dead soldiers and even people caught in terrorist attacks. Politicians and the public were outraged. It’s thought that thousands of people may have had their phones hacked. Each one of those hacks is a criminal offence. So the question now is who’s responsible?

Take your time looking at all the numbers on offer. Scroll through the listings. Compile a short-list. Read the numbers aloud to see how they sound. Ask a friend or colleague for their thoughts.

Choose a number that reflects your company. The most memorable numbers project the best professional image. If you want an even better number, see our gold numbers.

Think about business-related words. Most phone keypads have letters alongside the numbers. Using these is a fun way to advertise that’s especially popular in the United States. For example, a photographer may want a number that spells PHOTO (contains 74686). Our number chooser can search for words, as well as digits.

Look for consecutive numbers. If you want more than one number (eg a voice number and a fax number), then buy two numbers that follow in sequence (eg the first ends with ’1′ the second with ’2′). If this might be an option in the future, ask us to reserve the other numbers for you. Call us on 01483 320 310.

Consider number sequences you use already: You may find a number that’s very similar to your existing one. For example, If your number ends with 5243, then look for an 0870 number that ends the same way.

Try to choose a memorable number. If you want something catchy, such as number featuring repeated sequences of digits (eg Local 4545 5000) go straight to our gold numbers page.
