I got a call and a message from this number while taking my "siesta". After listening to the message, I realized it was from SFGH reminding my doctor appointment for next day. As I am still looking for a job, I thought it was from whatever company for an interview...bummer!
This number answers as disconnected if you call it but it calls out from San Francisco, CA. To be more precise, the ER at San Francisco General Hospital. had a friend call me from there, was unclear about where she was, called it back and got "this number has been disconnected." she called back later same number and that's when I found out where it was coming from.
If I'm reading this right, it more then just the hospital. It's most likely a trunk line that is mostly used by SFGH but has also been leased to a few "other" businesses that turn out to be telemarketers. There are no doubt a number of faxes on it as well, and if there is a mental health unit, in SFGH, they would also be trunked through the same number, as for the easy listening...in a hospital, dial a random number and then put it on hold.... childish, but a good way to [***] people at 3am
ALSO, any phone that is for patent use, like in er would also get the same number so if some dumb-[***] got bored in the ER waiting room... prank calls... there you go...that could solve all the mysteries...
got 2 calls from a mentally ill person rambling about medications. I couldn't exactly make out what she was saying too well. Message went on for a while.
I hope this will ease someone's mind here. I received a call from this number 2 nights ago and did recognize the number so I came here to read if anyone else had received calls from this number. I didn't answer it at first but while I was looking here a 2nd call came in from the same number. This time I answered it and it was in fact San francisco general hospital telling me my child had been injured. I rushed over there and it was true my child was in a bad accident. I noticed that there was one other post here saying it was from the hospital also. Not sure why the other post said something different, but tat is a main line when Simone calls from there. Now one thing interesting is the nurse that third to call me the first time said she called from a cell phone, the 2nd person that called said they called from an in line but yet the same number showed on my caller ID. The calls are coming from there whether its a prank call from the psych ward, or employee
