Research call

It's McNair Research. I answered when they rang back today. The numbers are randomly generated and it's a survey about the Health system on behalf of State Governments.

McNair Research company making unsolicited calls. Blocked them.

This organisation claiming to represent the Ministry Of Health for the State. Well Australia dose not have a Ministry Of Heath. VIC Heath and so on. They make money with each callers data they obtain. The heath issues of an individual is personal and shouldn't be shared with an organisation want that information. The state government already have that information from your visits to your doctor.

If you receive a missed call from the following number: (02) 8458 2671 or (02) 8458 2672 then you have been called by McNair Ingenuity Research, based in Sydney. it may be because we were trying to contact you to participate in the NSW Population Health Survey, however we also conduct other surveys across Australia. See www.mcnair.com.au.
Calls are made to randomly selected landlines in NSW, as well as randomly selected mobiles across Australia. When we call mobile numbers for this survey we first ask you if you live in NSW, and if you don’t live in NSW we remove your number from our database of numbers to call for that survey.

I have a silent number,don't appreciate being called , will not answer these calls they should be reported

I called back number (02) 8458 2672 reached voice mail of a company which I can't understand the company name because of a bad recording.

These people persist in 'phoning my number. Have been getting calls almost daily for the past two weeks. I won't answer. If they really are dialling numbers randomly, how come my number is rung so frequently? They need to go do research on their own practices.

spammer don't bother with them

Research call. There's a message about being removed from their calling list. It's impossible to hear the name of the company.

they said they were from department of human resources and did i have a student living at home? I said no and they rang again the next day ,i said you rang yesterday they said "oh dont worry about it and hung up ...am now going to block number!

I will answer next time, I will tell them I have anal herpes, African bum disease and that my name is Mr Wayne King. I hope they log it.

I answered a call from (02) 8458 2672 not knowing who it was. They said they were conducting research into purchased vehicles. Told them I was not interested and was too busy to talk to them. The man asked if he could call me back at another time as it was paid research. I said no and told him that I was not interested and I am getting missed calls on a daily basis from them.

This has to breach harrassment and privacy laws. Just made a petition - it's time these businesses got their karma returned.

Let's shut these a**holes down - force change and fight for our rights to privacy - for our choice not to be contacted by telemarketers, charities or other entity trying to get details or money - and for protection from scam calls. These businesses should not be operating.

Fake ATO voice recording.

I did not answer a call from this number on my mobile today. We are from Western Australia not New South Wales, although we are touring and in NSW at the moment.

This is McNair research they do legit research for good pay. But they are persistent. 4 calls in one day. Pain in the ass really. Leave one message, I'll call back!

If they want information about health care in NSW, let them send me a letter.

I simply will not give any information over the phone to some random acaller

Answering machine on. Works for me with my landline.
