0800 00 1066

Phone number for HastingsDirect: A british car insurance company with a memorable advert of a seagull and statue discussing the benefits of the company before the seagull sings the catchy number in a made up tune with a noticeable gap between '0800' and '1066'.

Also used as a call and response method to find a british person in a foreign country. Simply shout 'oh eight hundred double oh' and wait for the responding '10 66' more than likely coming from the local pub or chippy. No proper british person can resist the urge to respond.

Warning: Catchy tune

Words cannot adequately describe the total and unstoppable terror that fills the soul of any sane person upon noticing this number under a call screen. It's not a matter of IF the gull will come for you, but WHEN. Many a fool has tried to cheat their fate. Some have taken to avoiding all phones for as long as they live. Others have chosen to end their lives, quickly and on their own terms. But all is futile, as this will only make it turn to your loved ones. The best one can hope for is a prolonged and agonising death. Those it abducts are far less fortunate. For your own sake, under NO circumstances utter its summoning phrase.
