Scam watch.. calling 2 days in row..

This call came in, I didn't answer it as I don't recognise the number and they didn't leave a message. I am involved with NDIS as a consumer, but if a legitimate caller doesn't leave a message, I am not inclined to call them back.

Caller: NDIA

This was NDIA calling to rectify a clerical error from a couple of years ago. The caller gave me a reference number and to call back on the call centre inbound number of 1800 800 110. Completely legitimate.

Caller: NDIS

Its the NDIS calling about the independent assessments

This is a fraud NDIS company, contacting NDIS clients and asking to move to their company. They are from Unity Care NSW. These people are indian's . Pretty sure they are having contacts in NDIS and so getting all details and calling them. FRAUD

This is a fraud NDIS company, contacting NDIS clients and poaching to move to their company

Didn’t answer ....
googled number & saw number of complaints.
2 of my young adult children are with NDIS.
Who in NDIS is giving out my number ????

Caller: NDIS

Confirmed this is a legitimate NDIS call centre number.

I was speaking to an operator via the 1800 800 110 number, the call dropped out and the same operator called me straight back on this number.

Caller: iSelect

Legit. But unwarranted.
I did a pet insurance comparison quote 4 months ago. They keep calling even though I told them I actually don’t want to pursue and I’m terminating with Bupa pet insurance as it’s ridiculous. They keep putting my premiums up and it’s not a regulated industry unlike human insurance.

Please stop calling me back.

Caller: NDIS

Legitimate caller - verified staff member's account number through the NDIA 1300 number in a separate phone call before accepting their call a second time. Call was regarding new provider set up & a user feedback survey

NDIS wouldn’t phone me because they know I’m deaf. Normally they sent me text or email with all their names details- that way I can check with my support coordinator if they’re real.
Should be on cautious by not giving any information out. So yeah this number must be scammers.. thanks for the tips from others here.

Caller: Geoff

Called by Geoff -GF0022-conducting NDIS survey and he left 1800 800 110 afterI refused to supply personal identification details. In turn, I called this 1800 number which i was told is a legitimate NDIS NATIONAL survey CONTACT NUMBER and was informed that the call was From that of an authorised survey and that the call was logged in 🔍!
That being the case, I didn’t call back because I don’t like surgery or surveys unless I’m conducting them❗️

Caller: NDIS

I do get lots of '02' area code numbers that are overseas, but this one is actually NDIS, who I deal with regularly. Although the recorded message is sketchy, I did end up speaking with an Aussie, who was able to confirm details on NDIS records.

Caller: NBN

recorded message will disconnect my landline

Caller: NDIS

It is a legit NDIS Survey.

Caller: NDIA

It was the NDIS. I called the 1800 number to confirm it was them calling me. I am a provider. I didn't want to give my details out to an unsolicited caller without being sure who it was.

The (02) 8331 4419 appears to be an NDIS number however when the call came through I could see the call was diverted from a mobile number. Unfortunately I didnt get the mobile number. It all seems a bit odd because the NDIS office is closed for Christmas / New Year break

Caller: NDIA

This is a legitimate number. Received a call from this number & spoke to the caller. Checked this site afterwards & worried all night. Rang the NDIA on their 1800 number which I found on their government website. They checked their call log for our account & confirmed that they had called us & that the info given to me by the caller was all correct.

Caller: NDIS Survey

Called the 1800 number to check if this was NDIS. Confirmed it is a team attempting to do a survey.
