Spam and Uncertain Call Reports for 02 8042 0705
Two contributors have reported activity from 02 8042 0705 (also written as 0280420705), a NSW-based local service number. The reports indicate a pattern of repeated calling with inconsistent identification and no message left. One contributor received multiple calls from different numbers in addition to 0280420705, while another identified the caller as Canter Market Research during a specific time window.

What Callers from 02 8042 0705 Say
One report identifies the caller from 02 8042 0705 as representing Canter Market Research. However, no specific details about conversation content were recorded, as the contributor did not answer the call. The caller did not leave voicemail messages, which is unusual for legitimate market research contact.
The pattern reported for 0280420705 involves calls that go unanswered and produce no follow-up communication, differing from typical market research outreach where multiple attempts and message trails are common.
Call Patterns and Timing
The reports about 02 8042 0705 show distinct timing patterns. One contributor noted calls occur every Sunday without variation, suggesting a scheduled dialling list rather than responsive follow-up. The other report about 0280420705 mentions calls from multiple different numbers alongside this specific number, with the contributor not answering any of them.
The Sunday-specific calling pattern reported for 02 8042 0705 is atypical for business hours contact, which may indicate either intentional timing avoidance or automated scheduling that doesn't respect typical calling conventions.

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Why does 02 8042 0705 keep calling but never leave a message?
Automated or bulk calling systems often don't generate voicemail, particularly if they're screening for live answers. Contributors reporting 0280420705 noted the lack of message despite repeated calls, which is common with research firms using predictive diallers that move to the next number if you don't answer within seconds.
Is Canter Market Research calling from 02 8042 0705 legitimate?
One contributor identified 02 8042 0705 as Canter Market Research, but legitimate market research firms typically leave voicemails or send follow-up contact details when calls go unanswered. The pattern reported for 0280420705 - repeated calls with no message and no response when called back - does not match standard market research practice.
Should I call back 02 8042 0705 to find out who called?
Not recommended. When one contributor called back 0280420705, there was no answer, which suggests the number may not be staffed for inbound calls or may be a spoofed outbound-only line. This is typical of automated calling systems, so calling back 02 8042 0705 is unlikely to yield useful information.
Why does 02 8042 0705 call specifically on Sundays?
One contributor reported calls from 0280420705 occurring every Sunday, which is unusual timing for business contact. This pattern may indicate automated scheduling that doesn't distinguish between weekdays and weekends, or intentional timing when people are more likely to be home despite being outside typical calling hours.
Can I stop calls from 02 8042 0705?
Yes. Register your number at the Do Not Call Register (donotcall.gov.au) to request removal from marketing call lists. You can also block 0280420705 directly in your phone's settings. If the number continues calling after registration or escalates behaviour, report it to ACMA at acma.gov.au.
What should I do if I receive a call from 02 8042 0705?
Let it go to voicemail and check if a genuine message is left. If 0280420705 becomes a pattern, block the number and register on the Do Not Call Register. If calls involve pressure, threats, or requests for personal information, report to ACMA. Contribute your experience to Reverseau to help other Australians identify this number's behaviour.
