this mob have rang me every day for the last 2 & a half weeks, including half an hour ago & it's a Saturday. They either ring & want personal info or they hang up without saying anything. In the last 8 months I have had ten 03 area code numbers blocked by Telstra. As soon as you block number 2 days later they ring on another number. I am on do not call register. I think it's same harassing mob. Terrible people, who are a big worry!!!

This is AGL marketing and sales team on dialler run. You can call AGL and opt out of marketing calls. Generally they want to combine gas & electricity or change your plans. It is a legitimate service. Should you not wish to have marketing calls, you can opt out by calling AGL and request them to remove you from that service. It is a part of their terms & conditions when you sign up. Although it is annoying that they call so often & don't leave messages, it is because they are on an automated dialler (call run). It is not a scam. Do not panic if you receive calls from this number. Simply, call AGL and opt out or if you cannot be bothered, just simply block the number. Seems a lot of people get upset over these things for no reason and automatically think they are scams. Should you ever have any concerns about a call from a 'company', call the company back on a legitimate number (not a number provided by the people who called you) and opt out of marketing or confirm if their are any scams going around.

This appears to be a telemarketing scam operated by AGL. This poor and unwanted customer service encourages me to transfer my accounts to another more reputable company.

Received a call from this number. I answered and they stated they were from AGL and wanted to check everything is okay with account. Started asking for DOB etc. Advised them I would ring AGL direct and not give out details - they hang up very quickly.
I just rang AGL and they have no record of someone trying to contact me from there and account is all fine.

This phone number belongs to AGL, the utilities company. I had a couple of missed calls on my mobile today, no voicemail messages, so I called the number back and it went straight to the automated AGL customer service line.

For those who are receiving calls from this number claiming its AGL, it is definitely a scam. I've called AGL who investigated and confirm the number is not theirs or the type of questions asked aren't their script. Any call made from AGL will be tracked against your account - if you want to check just call the number on their website, explain your concerns and they will follow up.

After signing up for AGL gas I have been plagued with marketing calls to try get me to sign up for their electricity as well. Another number they use is (03) 8633 7886

IT'S A SCAM!!!!
Posted on April 20, 2016 Caller type: Scam Location: Australia
Just spoke to AGL and they have records when they call you. This number is NOT AGL as when they call, it will show as their 131 245 number.
This scam artist is pretending to be AGL. If you call the number back it rings and then forwards your call to the AGL Customer Service Line.
By which time you've already been scammed however.
If you get a call from this number call Telstra's Malicious/Nuisance Call Team and they can either put a trace on your line, or block the number from calling.

I don't care who it is, and if its AGL then I care even less - I do not have an account with these people and so sick of their unsolicited phone call. The government needs to do more about this - I have been registered with the No call register for a long time now and these nobs just don't play nice!
