Blocked phone call

Hi folks,

I was wondering if anyone has ever had a winning call early in the morning? I missed one at 08:20 this morning and now I'm wondering if it is a competition. No one I know would call me at that time or withhold their number, now I'm intrigued.

  • I wouldn't have thought so as most offices run 9am - 5pm opening hours. I had a missed call which turned out to be a company trying to get me to subscribe to the magazine from a competition I entered, a little odd as I always tick the do not contact me boxes, sure have been doing it long enough to know I have been ticking them correctly.

    Hopefully they call back soon :)

    I did think it would be too early but now it's got me wondering. I always tick the do not contact me boxes but still seem to get bombarded with emails!

  • I once received a call from a radio station about 7am but it wasn't withheld so i knew who it was when they rung back about 9.30.
