I have received a few calls from this number and everytime I have answered the call they have hung up on me, so today I decided to call the number back and I heard a recorded message saying something about OnePath life insurance. I will now be adding my number to the Do Not Call Register

They've started to call and hang up on me this week ... grrrr....

Not

They're still hammering away at my wife's phone, will tell ANZ I'll shift my loans elsewhere if they don't piss off.

More telemarketers probably not even really in this country.
This is pathetic and ridiculous
more so in this case I am already with the ANZ.
so I already get mail with their offers.
I think I will make a call to the bank as well as other means to get off their call list.

It's ANz

Today I received I call from (02) 8217 8051, which I heard ringing in my mobile. As it tooks some seconds for me to answer it, when I select the Answer button, I did notice that instead of someone being responding me, the call back in some way has been activated to 'call out mode' ring back to their number, as I could hear the ringing on the other side, as if I have done the call in the first place.
ON the screen of my mobile it shows both calls the one that came in from (02) 8217 8051 and the one that went out to (02) 8217 8051, WITHOUT ANY IMPUT OR ACTION FROM MY PART!
Aware that it was to connect me I canceled the call before someone had responded. It is a swindling and malicious way to take money from people by making call charges on behalf of others.
I searched on the internet about this number and lot but lot of people has suffered same experience without a way on how to STOP it.
I did researched the number in the internet, am surprisingly this number has been reported hundreds of time on various sites of doing such action. As it looks NOBODY has yet taken them down and are doing swindle business as usual at expenses of people's money.
I reported to both the QLD Ombudsman & Optus Complains. IF some one has three calls registered from this number, that is enough for the Service Provider to lodge a legal complain and report to Police

ok i am sufficiently SICK & FED UP of these stupid monkeys

been averaging 2-3 missed calls from this number (02) 8217 8051 daily for past fortnight

tried this today when phone was in hand when it rang...

1, answer & listen, don't say anything... you're "in queue" anyway

2, wait for a couple of clicks... till the autodialler connects your call to a human

3, when human says first word just YELL INTO YOUR PHONE LOUD whatever you wish to tell them

4, JUST KEEP YELLING for 5-10s then hangup.

no more Mr Nice Guy, i'm now out to get even + Interest!
(since you guys say they're bank related hey?)

You disturb my peace, you deserve your lot.

this number called 3 times in one day. I missed all the calls, but I'm glad I did now. Thanks for this website.

i received up to 17 calls a day from this number.I finally got through to someone & asked them to stop calling me as it is a business line & they call me everyday & hang up.The company is actually called IMG,not ING.When i asked to be removed from their call list,i was told to give all my details otherwise they could not remove me.I told them that i would not give out my personal info as they had not even told me why they were calling me.I continued to receive calls for 2 days until i told them that i had lodged a formal compliant with the police,because i felt they were harassing me.They have'nt called back.

Hey everyone. I've been getting these annoying calls from different numbers all the time too. I've decided to start a proper detailed register to record all these calls. Hopefully with enough evidence telcos and police can stop this.
