I agree. Why can't numbers on land lines be blocked like mobiles?

Caller: Telemarketing Scam Call

I got one of these calls yesterday (16th March 2019 @ 4:55pm) didn't answer as I had my phone on silent, no message left, upon calling back...... Legitimate Marketing Company - calling themselves "TeleReach" more like "Telescamreach", as they specify an email address and their site, both are non-functional. The email just bounced (Mailbox Full) and their site is a joke - 404 Not Found Error. Legitimate my A$$. A website and email address to be "unavailable" at anytime is a siren for me, telling me that the company is either fake or otherwise a scam.

Should you get a hold of these pricks, advise them they are calling illegally and explain why ;), I can almost bet they won't call again - provided you get an "actual" person on the line :|.

Cheers, and have fun ;)

Called landline on 16th March, mentioned the word "marketing"...I waited on the line for a few seconds to see what they would say, they promised the survey would be very quick...when they asked the first question, was I enrolled to vote, I hung up...wasn't going to do the survey anyway, but was curious to see what they were going to ask. If they call again, will block number on phone.

Another caller who did not leave a message.
Another SCAM CALLER

Caller: Some scammers by the looks of it

I also don't answer my home phone anymore. Its now just and emergency phone to call out. Why dose the Minister for communication let these scammers rip off australian's and why do the phone company's let their calls go through. They must be making money from the scammers as well.

Pain in the arse two calls at 8 and 8.30
I don’t answer, goes to answering machine never leave a msg😡
So much for having a private number and on the do not call registry 😡😡😡

Number didn't leave a message
No one I know.

Didn't answer as number not familiar to me & was calling late. Checked here to see these people are serial pests.

Didn't answer. Just let it ring out. Checked this website to see who owns the number. By the look of all the comments, it would seem to be a tel-marketer.

Picked up phone. No-one said anything so I said peep, peep. Caller hung up. Always check unknown Numbers. Will block this number.

block these guys from telstra - that fixes that

How do you block these bastards?

They are at it again. 2 calls within 1 hour after 7pm. No Message left - that's the obvious sign. checked here to find its a dodgy telemarketing company.
so annoying.

Answering machine on, caller hangs up, then rings again and begins to ask question, "Are you male or female?" the male voice repeats the question a couple of times then hangs up. It was some kind of survey.

I have whistle next the phone and when I reieve these calls I blow into the mouthpiece,

I don't care who they are, they have a damn hide ringing after 8:30PM. I did not pickup & never will at that hour.

Caller: Media Reach

just received a call from this number 8:30pm, voice over announcement stating the call is from 'media reach'

Phone Call at 8.25pm. Didn't leave a message when it went to the answering machine.

Rang twice in last twenty minutes. I didn't pick up. *10# gave their number. Do Not Call Register a bit useless. I assume that as long as Telcos are being paid for calls they couldn't care less if the customer is a pest or scammer.

Caller: Telemarketer

I am on the DO NOT CALL REGISTER and they obviously have no regard for the ACMA regulations.
