we too are having these strange calls, it's true they hang up when you answer but if you dial 1471 it tells you to return the call by pressing button 3, don't do it, it must be a scam!!!.
We are frequently being phoned between 12.30pm and 1pm (when we have just sat down for dinner) and the call is silent when answered. This time we were able to be given this number from 1471. We are registered on TPS but still calls like this are getting through.
Calls and immediately disconnects without anyone saying anything
Answered call - silence - then got automated "Goodbye" and they hung up. 1471 gave number as 0845 2879493
"I am a government grant advisor". No you're not, you're touting for business, Grants4U. I'm TPS registered, and fed up of the stream of fake "government" official calls attempting to sell double glazing, cavity walls, loft insulation etc.
