I received another call from this number 4:11PM today Melbourne time, but when I catch the call, it was disconnected. I tried to ring back and heard the recorded announcement, "The number you have dialed is not in service. Please check the number and try again. Goodbye.".

This number has been calling for the last 3 week. SOmetimes 5 times a day. They just hang up when answered. I have now added to block list.

I receive about 4 calls a day whilst at work I have tried to respond to the caller and number is not in service?

I am starting to get very annoyed by these calls as when I answer there is never anyone on the line.

I don't bother answering now as I was advised, by a friend that they would stop calling if I didn't answer as my friend was getting the same calls and they stopped after a while.

It has been 6 months maybe more of continuous calling.

VERY FED UP.

Just had a call from this number - it was within 90 seconds of receiving a call from 03 9039 6566, which also seems to be some sort of telemarketing loop. Have now blocked both numbers.

I got a call from this number and a lady said she was from RP Australia and asked for me by name. She then went on to talk about increasing wealth if I have a mortgage on my home and am working. When I told her I did not work she just hung up, no thank you or good bye. I have had a number of calls from this company from different phone numbers in the last 3 or 4 months and normally they hang up as soon as I pick up and say hello. I just keep putting these numbers on my banned numbers list.

I had 3 calls today UTC+11.1429.1629.1802. Didn't answer, however based on feedback already seems like an automated system checking to see if you answer. Data for companies that want to know which numbers are in service.
