Have I won?

I keep getting called from the following number!:
+27214080600
When I first got called I was a little surprised as obviously +27 is a foreign calling code! I looked it up and apparently it's for South Africa! I don't know anyone over there, so I'm wondering who it is that's phoning me?! :rotfl:
I've always been a little shy on phones so I'm a bit dubious about picking up plus I'm worried that it will cost me money as it's a call from outside the UK to my mobile!
Any ideas compers?

as long as you are in your provider country... which u are. Then it wont cost you anything. Sounds unlikely its someone trying to give you a prize, but certainly you can answer it.0

Aww, there was me hoping I might actually have won something for once.
I get a lingering feeling it's going to be something completely non-competition related.

Wasn't there a comp ages ago for a house in South Africa?
EDIT: Not that, it's not finished yet......did you enter though and maybe allow them to contact you? it's hereJust become FTBs & Aiming to be mortgage free by 2034
Thank you to all who post on the comps/freebies forums you've helped us save our deposit :money:0 -
Imagine if my first win was a house

I'm just thinking, if it's a UK competition (which I'm guessing all of the comps I entered were) wouldn't I be phoned from a local UK number?
Maybe I'll just pick up next time they call.

Just to update you guys. I was avoiding calls from this number as I saw it listed here as potentially dodgy. When I eventually answered the call it was from HP service desk checking on my call about my broken laptop.0

I just had a call from the same number - HP laptop problem also!0
