    09 numbers are premium-rate.

    Any legitimate company notifying you of a win (or anything else) would not be calling from an 09 number, and would certainly call you back another time.

    This may be an automated scam for making money on pointless callbacks (like similar fax scams). There is a government website for this sort of thing:

    They have no record of your number and will accept complaints from the public.

    Also the Office of Communications:
