FAQTelstra's scam text filter has stopped a whopping 185 million scam texts from reaching its customers phones since it was launched in April.
A majority of mobile phone users receive unwanted or pesky calls and text messages even after having registered their numbers in the Trai's 'national do not call' registry, a survey report said on Tuesday. According to online platform Localcircles, 95 per cent people who participated in the survey said they get pesky…
I prefer a quiet life with no unwanted phone calls and I want to keep it that way. That’s what I told Simply Outbound, the company responsible for calling me up four times a day, asking for some household data. They took prompt action. I did not get any calls after that.
I would like to say thanks to Simply Outbound for their prompt response and action. I used to get 4 calls a day from this number. But after I called their grievance cell and told them that I do not wish to be a part of their survey and don’t want any more calls, they happily obliged.
Thanks Simply Outbound. The calling actually has stopped after I called your grievance cell. That’s some pretty fast work.
First of all, I must admit that these calls were getting on my nerves. Taking part in the survey did not end the endless call streams. When I saw that a company took the onus and provided a grievance cell number with a promise not to call again, I thought, what are the odds? Let me give it a try. I called the number and told them the problems I was having. They took my details and promised me that I won’t be getting any calls from them. And it worked. I have not received a single call from this number or any number for the matter asking for a household survey. Thank you Simply Outbound!
