Ignored and blocked after looking number up on here. Thank you for the advice.

an indian guy wanting my electricity bill details who said his name was Bill and calling from my area, but he didnt know the postcode of the suburb

I have stopped bothering to see who is on the other end. I say nothing on my end - simply press accept call - then promptly hang up. I have noticed if you do this a few times - their dialing system stops dialing my number. I do this with EVERY unknown number - my nuisance calls have reduced to about 4 a week from 4-5 a day. When I spoke with Telstra they said there is no point reporting the number - they simply book out a new block of business numbers and so stay one step ahead of being traced. Cheers - hopes this helps :O)

If you guys want to reduce telemarketers from calling, just register to the Do Not Call Register. No charge. No Problem :) You're Welcome

If you don't answer, they keep putting your number back into the dialing system. It's a robot calling and when you answer, the call drops through to them. If no consultants available when you answer, the robot hangs up on you. I worked 2 years in this sh*t and know how they work. They will keep calling. Best way to make it lesson or go away is to ANSWER and speak for a minute. Then hang up. It registers as a call made at their end and you shouldn't get another call for atleast 3-6 months. Try it:)

block this number because it is annoying that they keep ringing me up.

This only covers landline numbers therfore pretty useless in this day & age

call centre

Definitely tele-marketing of sorts - answered the call, didn't say a thing and the line just disconnects. Must be computer generated. Buggers.

some f*ck wit asking about my electricity price

I am on the Do Not Call Register....but it makes no difference!
