    This phone number belongs to the Social Research Center (SRC) located in Melbourne. The Social Research Center conduct social research for a range of Universities, Government Departments and Medical Organizations.

    The SRC are exempt from the Federal Government's Do Not Call Register because they are conducting social research for the betterment of society and they're not trying to sell products or services over the phone.

    Your number has been obtained by random digit dialing, where your phone number is randomly generated by the computer to ensure a random cross-section of the community. This is why you'll still receive a call from this organization even if your phone number is a silent or private number.

    Once the SRC has generated your number they'll continue to call you at a range of different times of the day and days of the week in an attempt to establish contact with you. They usually will call you 15 times in an attempt to get in contact with you.

    Ignoring these calls will not make them go away, if you want them to stop calling simply answer the phone and politely tell the interviewer on the other end of the line that you are not interested in participating in their study or survey and you would like to not be called for this study again.

    Social and Market research organizations and phone interviewers who conduct the research understand that broadly 40% of the population will never participate in phone research, 40% will always participate and 20% will sometimes participate. Phone interviewers will therefore only put effort in persuading the 60% of people who will participate not the 40% of people who never participate in research.

    The phone interviewers understand that people will refuse to participate and of course they will attempt to persuade you to participate after all it's their job however if you politely and assertively say that you don't wish to participate in this study they will more then happily leave you alone.

    This company will send you an endless barrage of emails trying to get you to do a survey. If you don't respond for a few weeks they will start harassing you by phone calls both on your mobile and home phone numbers. They need to get the picture. If you aren't going to pay people for their time, and instead will harass them with emails and phone calls, you get NOTHING.

    Yes, I have received a call from this number too. Again no message left. I believe that these are spammers from overseas.  There has been word of overseas callers calling for money.
