Most modern telephone handsets record at least the last 5 or 10 numbers to call you. You have to have caller ID activated on your line, and you may have to pay a small monthly fee for that, but TBH I don't understand why anyone wouldn't have called ID. It's essential these days even if you just want to screen out annoying marketing calls.

To answer the original question: no, I don't believe they routinely keep a record of inbound calls. That would probably be a breach of your data privacy.
