I have received a few calls from this number and everytime I have answered the call they have hung up on me, so today I decided to call the number back and I heard a recorded message saying something about OnePath life insurance. I will now be adding my number to the Do Not Call Register

They've started to call and hang up on me this week ... grrrr....

Not

They're still hammering away at my wife's phone, will tell ANZ I'll shift my loans elsewhere if they don't piss off.

More telemarketers probably not even really in this country.
This is pathetic and ridiculous
more so in this case I am already with the ANZ.
so I already get mail with their offers.
I think I will make a call to the bank as well as other means to get off their call list.

It's ANz

Today I received I call from (02) 8217 8051, which I heard ringing in my mobile. As it tooks some seconds for me to answer it, when I select the Answer button, I did notice that instead of someone being responding me, the call back in some way has been activated to 'call out mode' ring back to their number, as I could hear the ringing on the other side, as if I have done the call in the first place.
ON the screen of my mobile it shows both calls the one that came in from 02 8217 8051 and the one that went out to 02 8217 8051, WITHOUT ANY IMPUT OR ACTION FROM MY PART!
Aware that it was to connect me I canceled the call before someone had responded. It is a swindling and malicious way to take money from people by making call charges on behalf of others.
I searched on the internet about this number and lot but lot of people has suffered same experience without a way on how to STOP it.
I did researched the number in the internet, am surprisingly this number has been reported hundreds of time on various sites of doing such action. As it looks NOBODY has yet taken them down and are doing swindle business as usual at expenses of people's money.
I reported to both the QLD Ombudsman & Optus Complains. IF some one has three calls registered from this number, that is enough for the Service Provider to lodge a legal complain and report to Police

ok i am sufficiently SICK & FED UP of these stupid monkeys

been averaging 2-3 missed calls from this number (02) 8217 8051 daily for past fortnight

tried this today when phone was in hand when it rang...

1, answer & listen, don't say anything... you're "in queue" anyway

2, wait for a couple of clicks... till the autodialler connects your call to a human

3, when human says first word just YELL INTO YOUR PHONE LOUD whatever you wish to tell them

4, JUST KEEP YELLING for 5-10s then hangup.

This number has been contacting me for the last 4 months. Today I decided to call the number back, it has a voice recording stating that they are from ING regarding Life Insurance Policies. Select Option 1. to speak with a staff member and advise them that you wish to be removed from their telemarketing list of phone numbers. DO NOT select option 2! They advise you to select this option and then say your name and phone number that you wish to be removed in a "clear" voice. This doesn't work.

Same thing for me! I will also put my name on the 'DO NOT CALL' register. Good website.

just had a call again, yesterday i answered - they hung up
so today I picked up call but didn't say anything LOL.... they finally started speaking cos I think it freaked them out.. some promotional thing and I said not to call again... hopefully they wont!

Called my mobile and they asked me if I had received any info in the mail. I said probably but would have put it in the bin as we are happy with what we've got. Pushy buggers asked me if they could resend the information I said OK but we'll probably just put it in the bin again. Then he wanted me to agree to a policy over the phone and I had 21 days to cancel WTF!! I said nup and they had the hide to ask me why. Ended up just hanging up on the idiot.

Glad to see I am not the only one being annoyed by this number.  I have had 3-4 calls a day every day for the past week.  I knew it would be telemarketers so had not answered but I have been surprised by their persistance.
