ok so this number has been in operation for well over a year now!! look at the dates of the previous complaints!

i have had calls from this number before and then i even had one today!

so sick of it!

i have put up with this long enough and so when they ring and i answer i abuse them and say to stop wasting my time!!

far out!

I have also received a phone call from this number, I did´t reply .  They didn´t leave any message.  I thought to check on the net to find who was, and I found this forum with all these posted message regarding weird phone calls from this number.

Had a missed call from them just now.  I called back.  I was told they are Astron Communications http://www.astron.net.au/index.html and they do telephone and internet services. I was told it was a telemarketing call.

i get calls for my fax on this number all the time but it isn't my fax number!

These people have called me 5 times today.  I asked to speak to the supervisor and a gentleman came on saying he is the senior supervisor.  I told him theyve called me 5 times already this morning and he hung up on me.

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Got a number of missed calls from this number throughout the day... didn't leave any messages. When I did pick up, a person with a strong accent (oddly named "Wilson", yeah right that's his real name) spoke and told me that I have been "select" to receive a free Nokia mobile phone.... as long as I sign up to a 24-month contract. Promptly told him I was not interested.

Hate telemarketers! I especially hate it when they say I have been "selected". We all know they just call off a big list of phone numbers!

I have been getting these calls for about a month now and I refuse to answer. I'm going to next time and then call the police and tell them.

Has anyone had success stopping these calls?

I've been getting calls from this number for the past few weeks, maybe 1-3 times every 2-3 days. It's getting annoying. I haven't shouted at them yet because I'd prefer to be alone when I am (don't want my folks hearing) but I will give them an ear full once I can.

I have had over 20 calls from this company in the past 2 weeks.

A bit of searching uncovered:
ASTRON COMMUNICATIONS & Information Services Pty Ltd
Po Box 210 , Chatswood NSW 2057
Galina Klinchaeva ( Market Manager)
M: 0410 030 322
T: 1300 72 42 72, ext.7802

Perhaps some frequent and persistent calls to her may prompt a change in behavior from this company.

Another company director is Chris J Bourke - for breaking the telecommunications Act 1997 Section 572B.

I answered the call but they hung up. If they are cold calling, my number is listed on the "Do not Call" register. PS I have been told that you may need to reregister on the Do Not Call Register as it only lasts for 3 years.

so I called Galina,
lol.
nice one for trying to source some info the on the mofos behind this icey cold calling.
That Lady is claiming she no longer works with them,
as she left two years ago! Hmmmmm I dont know......
She has asked we remove her number I told her to come post for herself.
Surely we can do something to stop this??

Received a missed call again last night at 7pm. Received another call today and they went to voice mail but didn't leave a message.

I received another call today which i answered. I waited for the phone to actually connect (as machine dial) and a foreign accent in a call centre (you could hear others talking). Told the guy to stop F?#king calling me, I am on the do not call register and I was sick of receiving their phone calls and I know what you want from the internet (this site). His reply "thankyou" and hung up! All in all he took it well.

Call from this number. Lady sounded as if she was reading directly off a script, mumbled and what i got from it was "we would like to send you some information that may help reduce your telephone bills" etc.
They hung up on me right after i said not interested. Very rude.

Just got a call from this number, glad I didnt bother to answer.

jl

keep getting these calls on my fax machine, of course the fax always picks up straight away and they get the horrible noise in their ear....bad luck for them!

I've been getting calls from this number in the last 3 days.  Everytime I answered they hung up.  When they phoned me today, I declined their call.

I just phoned Astron Communications and the guy I spoke to said he will remove my number from their list.  He also told me that if you don't want anyone telemarketers to call you, you should register your number as a "DO NOT CALL NUMBER" with Australian Communications and Media Authority on 1300792958.  This will stop those annoying telemarketers from calling you for 3 years.  Hope this helps.

I have worked with Astron, and although I dont like telemarketing most of the comments in this blog is incorrect and laughable. They have a state-of-the-art VoiP telephone system that does not allow the same number (CLI) to be called more than 2times within a 24-hour time span. Secondly all numbers are washed against the Do Not Call Register then uploaded on the system. It is impossible to call any number that has not been washed and uploaded on the the internal system with a valid date wash. Any number that has been washed, can only be dialed for a period of 28 days, after this period number(s) go into quarantine. So as you can see highly impossible that all the above people are being harrassed. Simply place your number on the DNCR and this will give you satisfaction that you will not receive telemarketing calls (at least from Astron) any way. Hope this sheds some light. Nice team in the Sydney office.
