Not sure how accurate it is but this suggests an Ilford location...

You could try some dissuasive techniques like blowing a whistle down the phone.

You can take your mobile number from supplier to supplier so it may not be Virgin.
As a private individual I'd be surprised if you could trace the call. But I'd think you could report nuisance calls to the cops.
Sounds a poor show if your supplier can't block the calls. Would have thought that was a standard feature of telephony control equipment. One lives & learns.

The first text i received from this number simply read 'ring me' to which I replied I dont phone numbers I dont know and it has continued from a simple 'hi' to blank messages...then when I asked who is was, they said it was their 8 year old messing with their phone...and I asked how come they got my number, then it has escalated...just had another 'private number' call me...grrr...i thought it was a hoax at first..so i dared not ring it back.
Trouble is, you answered the first one with your reply text - I would have ignored it, I don't respond to any numbers I don't recognise, text or phone. It's like spam emails, you just ignore and delete them. Now they know there is a real person there and they are getting a response from you, someone's having "fun". Just ignore it. Don't answer calls, don't respond to texts, just delete them immediately. They'll get fed up if yu don't respond.
It doesn't come up with anything for the number which is calling you, but this is quite a useful site for identifying spam phone calls etc. http://whocallsme.com/
Take the phone to the local police station and show them the text messages you have been getting, explain the whole situation and they should offer advice on how to get it stopped. You may have to still get a new SIM card though. The police will have powers to request the name and address of the idiot who is phoning you from the provider, they will be able to do absolutely nothing though if it is an unregistered pay as you go mobile.
make a silent voice recording , name the person and use the voice recording for the message and ringtone , they will get bored with it are you on virgin/ if not don't worry about it they will be getting charged not you , when they phone answer it but don't speak and leave phone to one side , just a few idea , hope things get better
