Missed call from PR company?

I found a missed call on my landline from 3 Monkeys Communications, which is a PR company. No message on the TAM. I rang them, and he took my name and number and said he would ask around, but 'there are 75 of us'. He asked me which competition I'd entered, so they obviously do deal with comps. Anyone got any experience of this company? Do they ring again? Trying not to imagine the car/holiday/wedge of cash I might have missed while having a colonoscopy! (Sorry, that's TMI)

    I got a call from a PR company not long ago trying to sell me a subscription on behalf of Heat magazine.

    Make your own Pot Noodles using a flower pot, sawdust and some old shoe laces. Pour in boiling water, stir then allow to stand for two minutes before taking one mouthful, and throwing away. Just like the real thing!

    I missed a call from global radio yesterday, no voicemail and when I called back the receptionist couldnt help.

    Gutted if I've missed out, no further calls and no answer machine message left. Hope they've not just tried once and moved on - I was at work and cant always answer first time.

    I'm a blogger and I've worked with that company before, I don't think they would be trying to sell anything to you!

    Fingers crossed, I know one of their clients is Morrisons! x

    Some of their clients can be found here, there are enough to make it fairly pointless trying to guess
