Found out who it was as they called back and spoke to someone. It's the Tasmanian Royal Guide Dogs. They get an automated machine to call you to find out what time you are likely to answer the phone, then it hangs up. A rep calls you back in a few days. Annoying....

Yes charities are exempt from the do not call register, but they are still not allowed to harras the public in looking for donations. next time they call, make sure they understand you will put in a complaint for harrassment against them as it is illegal.

I have had 3 calls a day for the last week from this number, I refuse to answer it and they never leave a message, so sick of these type of calls.

Calls everyday about 4 times no one there. I have blacklisted on our PBX.

If they just stopped calling everyone automatically they could just, you know, put their phone bill towards the bloody dogs.

How the hell do they get our numbers is what I'd like to know.

I've now read on other sites and this one that this number is guide dogs, a security firm, RSPCA and insurance brokers.

Sadly, charitable organisations (such as the Tasmanian Royal Guide Dogs For The Blind) are explicitly exempt from the restrictions imposed by the Do Not Call Register, and sadly some of these organisations abuse the privilege. Way to get your NPO a bad name in the eyes of the public, guys! When they call, you can ask them to be removed from their database, and they must comply. If they call again, ask to speak to their supervisor, and you should repeat the request to that person. If the caller hangs up at this point, or refuses to put their supervisor on, or if the organisation calls again after your second request to be removed, you should lodge a complaint at www.donotcall.gov.au

I have just emailed them at privacy @ guidedogstas.com.au demanding to be removed from their calling list, will let you know how I go.

I am on the DO NOT CALL register...how come I get calls from (03) 6108 0022...

Same s**tBloody answer and theres nobody there.Really annoying

I am South of Hobart and have been called by this number a few times.  They never leave
a message and hang up when answered.  They pick random times of day to call, including
evenings as well.
Very annoying.

I've also been receiving calls from this number, rang 5 minutes ago, same time yesterday!starting to piss us off, they dont speak to us at all though. just silence, then hanging upthinking we're safe as we have 2 vicious rottweiler X staffys :) they'll enjoy trying to get into this house the f***ers. cant wait for them to ring back now knowing its some low life scum trying to rob people.

Confirmed, its the Guide Dogs of Tas. If they call me again and hang up i'll have to punch one of them in the throat.

Hi Guys!  That number is from a charity based in Hobart.  They must have one of those machines that telemarketers use- the machine constantly rings people and records what time and day that the call is answered.  It's purpose is to give the charity an idea of when you are likely to answer so that the staff don't waste their time calling people who are not normally home at that time.  Next time you get this call, pick up the phone and press # as many times as you can.  It will confuse the machine and boot you off its dialling list.  I think this kind of machine shouldn't be allowed- and I certainly wouldn't donate anything to the charity because they obviously don't see anything wrong with hanging up on people without saying a word.
