I get that too - it's usually from autodialers at call centers - apparently they will do something like ring up 5 people, and then when the first person answers they get put through to an operator. Occasionally there isn't an operator free, so you get a pause

I think there's something called the Telephone Preference service or something that you can go to and be removed from the list....

Yeah, I'm right!!
