When I picked up there was hurried shouting from multiple people within a large room, and the caller immediately hung up. I dialled back and received a (probably fake) recorded message claiming that "EON Next" had called me to book an appointment to upgrade my electricity and/or gas meters but that their lines were now closed etc etc.

Missed calls from this number on my landline answerphone and mobile, no message left on either, so either not important or a scam, either way, I won't be answering it!
