Caller: McNair yellowSquares Pty Ltd

If you receive a missed call from this number, it is likely that we were trying to contact you to participate in one of a variety of surveys we are conducting.

In most cases calls are made randomly to landlines or mobile numbers across Australia. In some cases when we call mobiles we will first need to check if you live in the area in which a given survey is being conducted.

While none of our surveys are compulsory, our clients and ourselves appreciate your participation. In order to ensure that our surveys are representative, McNair yellowSquares is permitted to call both silent numbers and numbers that are on the Do Not Call Register. However, you may request not to be called by us - you can either answer and let our interviewer know you no longer wished to be called or you can call our 1800 669 133.

All telephone surveys conducted by McNair yellowSquares may be monitored or recorded for training and quality control purposes. Respondents have the option to discontinue the survey at any time.

SomE annoying opinion poll.

Caller: McNair yellowsquare

It’s seems that McNair yellowSquares' claim that they’re entitled to call people who are on the DNC Register (because they’re doing surveys for the government) is as questionable as their business practises.

annoying, every day

Caller: some bastard

mate, i get calls every day from this number. i answer them, then the operator immediately hangs up. pick an option - continue the call, or go to hell. i got school to deal with, work to deal with, family problems to deal with, i don't want unnecessary calls clogging up my schedule.

Ditch your landline. Use mobile only and block unknown numbers when caller does not leave a message. It works.

Told caller not to call again and they did a few days later. How can they override DNC register ??
