Fake or real vm phone call?

So I jus got a call from virgin media. My mum picked it up. Vm ask if they can talk to mr "insert name here" Aka the account holder. They didn't say account holder they said his name. My mum says hold on. Cuz my dad was outside.
We giv the phone to my dad. But when my dad says "hello" vm hanged up the phone few mins ago I think.

I ring 1471 then press 3 to find out who rang
the number begun wit "0845" I think sorry I forgot the rest of the number

then I get a anwser MSG. "You were rang by virgin media. We will call back later"

Sounds like an out bound sales call from VM. Had a few of them myself

Most likely they'll have been offering you the TiVo service or a Blackberry
