    PIP do not usually ring from a private number, it’s usually a 0800 number. 
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

    it was probably a cold caller or trying to sell you something, so possibly nothing important

    As others have said pip would probably call from a 0800 number not private call.
    When I have missed a call from pip they sent me a text saying they were trying to call and when they would call back
