If you are called by a member of the O’Brien Media team and want to confirm they are a genuine caller you can always call them back by calling any of our numbers and asking for them by name.

We have been asked why we have so many phone numbers, the short answer is that we use phone numbers to track our marketing activity – ensuring that we don’t waste money on marketing that isn’t working. We also have taken on the numbers of businesses that we have acquired over the years, which is why a Swindon based business has London and Bristol numbers!

SMS text and WhatsApp messages

We send SMS text messages in some cases; these will always come from the sender “OBrienMedia“, or from “07860033633” (an SMS only number) and with be prefixed with “O’Brien Media, 01793239239:”.

We are reintroducing two-way messing via SMS as part of our customer communication strategy, the number used for this is +447860 033633.

Whatapp messages will be sent from 07860 033633 or you can send us a Whatsapp message here (note: it can take us up to a day to reply to Whatsapp messages as they don’t come into our helpdesk system whereas SMS text messages, emails and contact form messages do).
