Girlie from Melbourne calling me to tell me that I've won a fortnight's membership at a gym in my home town (Townsville NQ). She called right in the middle of dinner, just like the same outfit did, this time last year. Claims to represent Strand Fitness, Townsville.

I got this call about a free gym trial in my area. I told them I lived in Perth, haha

I got at least 2 calls a day from this number, living in Townsville/QLD as well. I picked up at the beginning, but I couldn't hear anyone, and after 4-5 sec the line broke... really annoying.

I got the same thing - they said they were ringing the local area and whoever picked up got a week trial of a  gym ... i didnt stay on the line long enough to find out more ... but he managed to ring through twice at the same time (like I was talking to him and was interrupted by another call from the same number)he then rang back the next night as well ...

I've bn called by them 5 times in the last few weeks. They called yesterday and today. Called back threaten legal action if they rang again. if they do I reporting them to the police. Im on the do not call register. Its illegal for telemarketers to call if your on it.

Australian no. (03) 9276 1196 - Calls you very briefly so you call back, it's spam for a 'free gym trial' in your local area. Sounds like bull, wants you to leave a message and doesn't offer any way to unsub.

I got a call from this number too and almost called it back as I have a lot of relatives in Melbourne (I'm in NSW).  I'm so glad I looked it up and saw this info about it being a sales number.  I would have been very annoyed if I'd spent money dialling it back!
