I received 11 missed calls from this number following a complaint I lodged with Optus to cancel my contract, apparently it's an Optus hotline number and I only get a recorded message from Optus when I try to call it back.

just checked here to see who it might have been - 2 calls in 2 minutes. I recently enquired about cancelling my plan!!

Received welcome automated calls confirming an Optus technicians appointment.

This is definately optus, but I think it is a default number, because I answered it and it was a really helpful consultant helping me with an enquiry I had made earlier, and she took it on her own back to find a better plan and switch it over, and she was calling me back to tell me.

Just got a call from this number and googled here. Young lady said i had called to make a query/complaint re my computer about Optus service and immediately initiated convo to get my full details?? so Ass/u/me??!! im not with 'Opt-anything' I said 1) never called with query about my computer/service 2) On Do not call register and she hung up.. OK.

4 missed calls in 4 days
same issues as posted before
how do i stop them from calling me @#&&##@@#&*//&#

I just got two calls from this number.
Optus is not only annoying, but also persistant.
I only use my moblie phone for SMS.

Love how they don't speak when you answer and then when you ring them back you're on their recorded message getting charged. Taking all four of our family off Optus and moving to another provider.

Missed the call but thought it was probably Optus as I had spoken to someone day before with a query. Thanks for confirming.

Got a call from this number, called back and it said the line was disconnected? How does that even work..

I heard my mobile ring for a very short time, as if someone had just rang to prank my phone to get me to call back rather than actually ringing and waiting for me to pick up the phone.I didn't bother calling back the (02) 9027 8000 number because I don't waste money returning calls made from unknown landlines. I think if a person really wants to reach you, they will call back later.

It's OPTUS

Is it really OPTUS? I just got 2 calls from this number withing 20 minutes, missed them both. Reminds me of the phone scam a couple of years back... http://www.tio.com.au/Scamwatch/phone_protection.html

No one on line

I think this is definitely related in some way to Optus selling off customer details.  I got two calls yesterday, neither of which I could answer because they rang for such a short time, from (02) 9207 8000 and (02) 9207 8500.  It seems a bit coincidental that the day before I'd gone into an Optus Store and changed over my plan to a new Optus plan. And now all of a sudden I'm getting these mysterious calls, which I'd never received before.  I'm hoping this isn't going to be a regular thing.  Has anyone noticed whether they continue to received these calls repeatedly?

The only suggestion I can make for anyone who's getting annoyed with it is to add your phone no. to the "Do Not Call Register" at https://www.donotcall.gov.au/  At least this way, the caller can be held accountable if they call you and your no. is on the list.  Although it seems to be a bit of a grey area if your service provider is Optus and the call actually comes from Optus.
