Records indicate that 0870 754...... numbers belong to Your Communications Ltd.

Can you have someone ring out and see what number if any is displayed on your CLI (caller Line identity) display?

If it is withheld I read somewhere on this forum that Argos do a personal number facility where the number is always displayed of the person calling regardless of whether it is withheld or not.  That way, you could ask someone from the uni to ring this personal number (obtained from Argos) and it would/should show up the number they are ringing from even if it is withheld.

It appears that UCE's system is VoIP, see this page on YC's site.
