Long pause after picked up, then it was a call centre, asian/indian voice stating they where from 'The Energy Company', and that energy and broadband prices were going up across the board. (Begining of October 2025, I wasn't aware of broadband hikes!! STRANGE). Hung up and blocked. Possibly a scam call centre trying to get your cash with fake cheap offers. Lowest of the low. And why can't UK phone companies stop these calls, can't be that hard, it's a disgrace.
