i said HELLO four times. Sounded like a dead line. I stayed on the phone and its like they un muffled the speaker for a split second then hung up. How do they get our number? Ive had this number for 17 years and i only have 32 contacts on my list. Every contact thats on my list, i have theirs in return. Im funny about giving my number out and dont enter competitions and i also have NEVER given this number to any billing companies....nobody has it exept close friends

I had missed this call, then they called my husband, its AGL

Pretended to be checking for Directory Assistance listings. SPAM, SPAM, SPAM. Tried to ring back, no luck

Same experience as everyone else

this is not AGL (anymore atleast) it is first choice abbottsford liquor store

Same for me as well. I suggest you all contact the do not call register and register your mobile number with them.

This must be a outsourcing centre as i just got a call this time it was from some one calling on behalf of the federal government insulation trying to organise inspection times to have it checked. I did not give her my details she already knew them. So given the differetn replies from people for the same number i think its a safe bet that its a call centre

they ring as private numbers then switch to this number up to ten times a day these rats need to be rid of

Hi
What if you have never had an account with AGL and still getting calls from this number thats strange.

yes"well"it would seem this number has been calling plenty, myslf included. 1st ? is it a scam,why can nobody tell us who they are for a start, i've tried 2 times with no answers. well i've got one for you (03) 8416 1400 (f--k--f).

I just got 3 missed calls so I tried calling the number back... the phone rings 3 times and hangs up... very fishy

Yer i got a call tonight. Number not familiar so i never answered. I won't be answering either.

Same problem as everyone else - no voice just nuisance calls.

Had above 'silence/hang-up' call x3 times today. Then I found this page. Same number called again while still looking and I 'put-a-voice-on' this time. The silence came good and the caller asked for me by name, and said they were from one of my valid utility providers. The background noise did sound like a call centre. I was still sceptical and asked for a number to call them back on. It might just be some call centre employee's trying to score points on the cheap by *making* more calls for clients. BOTTOM LINE: NEVER GIVE OUT YOUR DETAILS TO RANDOMS - CALL THEM BACK ON THE NUMBER IN THE PHONE BOOK

same thing as joan but i get this almost on a weekly basis and no one can tell who or what they are

I had the exact same call today, from a fool trying to pass himself off as an official from AGL. This is what I said:I believe that you mean to say that you're an independent debt collecting agency that is contracted by AGL. Congratulations, you just committed false representation. I'm a law student, I should know. What other illicit acts would you like to commit? Perhaps, harass me over a certain gas bill valued at $210 that was paid two days before the end due date (of which I have a post office bill-pay receipt)? I suggest that you apologise and hang up, to avoid any further legal action taken because of your stupidity.

I got called from them 3 times this week, its really annoying and interupting and now that I know this, it just makes me hate Tesltra even more!

Its Stellar Call Centres in Melbourne i use to work for Stellar on the Telstra Bigpond contract its the Richmond Office lol

I getr calls from this number but when I try to return call it rings but goes to engaged tone.

IT IS NOT BIGPOND INTERNET 'Maciek'!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IT IS 'AGL' energy (Gas and Power) debt collections! (Victoria at least!).

I know because I waited..... and waited..... and I was eventually connected to them...... AGL ....... collections department!!!!

Tell them to get stuffed!

Hi,I am so glad I came across this website too, I have been receiving these calls for about 4 weeks and it is so annoying, they call at all times of the day/ night...I don't give them details either...but I did ring Tru Energy and got put through to some indian call centre, after being on hold for about 40mins, and could not hear nor understand a damn word they are saying...I am now looking at different companies to go for...Tru Energy pull your finger out, get this problem fixed and for the love of god improve your damn customer service.
