Not so sure about this mob. They rang me claiming to be market research, but in among the questions were whether I lived alone (specifically that, not "how many people live at that address?"), whether I had a dog, whether I had electronic goods or jewellery on the premises and how much per month I spent on movies and music, and then they asked whether I wanted to be on their mailing list for other surveys, which would have required my handing over my street address as well. Could be straight-up, but could also be phishing for premises to rob. Caller ID was blank; they gave me this number quoted here, but that doesn't mean that was where they were calling from. I regard this as suspicious.

Answered a call from this number and they hung up as soon as I answered. I could hear people talking in the background and it sounded like it might be a call centre. Very frustrating!

9am this morning, a Saturday, my only morning lie-in - these idiots call me!  I left the phone go and when I went to check messages when I eventually surfaced and called back there was no answer.Who are these people?  I think I've had calls from them before.

They called me back at 12pm and I spoke to their supervisor - she was called Rose I think.  They are a legitimate market research company that do surveys for the Government - I did participate in a travel survey about 2 years ago and have asked them to stop calling me but it falls on deaf ears.   Hopefully now I will be finally removed from their database.  

I explained politely, that 9am on a Saturday morning is incredibly intrusive for some people - I'm a shift-worker - and they NEVER leave a message.  Also could hear the initial telemarketer in the background saying 'this one is swearing!'  Well, not surprising when you've only had 3 hours sleep!

have had so many phone calls to my mobile from this number, never leaving a message. I have phone back and tried to leave a message but it cut out. I have reported to telstra, unsure if they can do anything

Had repeated missed calls from this number.Finally managed to answer the call today - it was a market research company (I forget the name) following up on behalf of my previous health provider to find out reasons why I had changed provider.Were quite friendly and gave me the option of whether I wanted to do the survey or not.Pretty harmless it would seem.
