Several calls over the last few days. Same as most phone rings no one on other end. I think it may be a computer system searching for active phone numbers?????

I get calls from this number all the time. Sometimes twice a day. They always hang up on me. They never speak.

Yes I've been getting lots of calls from them too and now I have 3 different ones phoning and I have to screen all my calls. I wouldn't buy from someone doing that anyway.I'm sure it's some type of scam ...BUT what's the point of the calls?

Got a call from this number just before. I said hello about 3 times before they just hung up on me. Tried calling the number back, but it said they were experiencing an unexpected high amount of calls, and to leave a message, then it went on to say that their mailbox is full.

Received unsolicited call allegedly from "xxx Energy" (forgotten name, but from what I've since read, they use different names) offering an 11% electricity discount. I asked "Who is xxx Energy?" The full response: "An electricity company". I polite replied "Yes, but can't you tell me anything more?", to which they hung up.
Out of curiosity I called back. A recorded message did not identify the number, but instead advised a lengthy wait before the call would be answered, immediately followed by a request that I leave my name and phone number "after the tone", then followed by "the mailbox is full" and disconnection.
Unethical and/or incompetent time wasters.

This number calls my work frequently and they just hang up, tried calling the number back and I got hung up on before anyone spoke. Very annoying.

Sample complaints we have found for (03) 9016 7886

I almost got conned by these people.
Bloody bastard, he said he is from City Power and offering a 12% discount on my business electricity bill. It sounded too good to be true, because from the news, electricity bills are actually going up in price. Sound too good to be true.
When I told him that the offer sounded like a scam, he kept repeating that he is legit, gave his phone number & address where he was calling from. Also, pushing me to agree to some sort of agreement over the phone.
At the end I told him that I am not agreeing to anything and to Bugger off and hang up.

I got a call from (03) 9016 7886 telling me that they where some electricity billing company I said I was not interested and asked them not to call me again. I hung up and got called back straight away then dial toned. I rang the number to get engaged. Then I tried (03) 9016 7800 as any direct telemarketing company would be buy ISDN ranges of at least 100 numbers they then normaly use a good number in this range like 800,888 or 878 as there main number and as alot of people may ring back to complain about the calls they may choose to display an unused number like 886 for out going caller ID and then not route this to any incoming number hence a constant engaged tone. any way short story long the 800 number belongs to a direct marketing company called OXYGENE www.oxygene.com.au just a guess but i think it is them call you all.

This number calls me frequently,often daily and often several times a day. When I pick up the phone there is no response despite the lin being open. They then hang up, after 10 or 15 seconds.
