Mixed Reports for 02 8318 0090 - Legitimate and Impersonation
The number 02 8318 0090 (also written as 0283180090) has generated four community reports with notably conflicting patterns. Two contributors confirmed legitimate NDIS planning calls, one reported a suspected NDIS impersonation attempt, and one received an unexpected missed call from this Sydney-based number. This mixed pattern suggests the number may be legitimately used by NDIS planners but has also been spoofed or misused for impersonation purposes.
The legitimate reports about 02 8318 0090 indicate genuine NDIS administrative activity. One contributor noted that an NDIS planner using this number utilises transcription services to communicate, which explains slower response times during calls. Another confirmed receiving a scheduling call for a planning meeting from 0283180090 that appeared legitimate. However, the presence of an impersonation report from February 2024 where a caller falsely claimed NDIS affiliation without prior contact suggests caution remains warranted.
What Callers from 02 8318 0090 May Claim
Based on community reports, callers from 02 8318 0090 have claimed to be NDIS planners calling to schedule planning meetings. In legitimate instances, these calls involve administrative coordination for NDIS participants. However, one contributor reported receiving a call from this number where the caller claimed NDIS affiliation despite having no prior contact or relationship with the participant - a key red flag for impersonation.
Contributors who received legitimate calls from 02 8318 0090 noted that some planners using this number may have communication support arrangements in place, which can affect call flow and response time. This is important context when evaluating whether a call from 0283180090 seems genuine - legitimate NDIS planners may sound different due to accessibility accommodations.
Report Patterns and Timing
The four reports for 02 8318 0090 span from February 2024 to May 2026, indicating this number has been active for NDIS-related calls over an extended period. One report involved a missed call with no voicemail left, which one contributor found unusual for standard NDIS contact protocols. The impersonation report from February 2024 predates the more recent legitimate confirmations from August 2025 and May 2026, suggesting the number may have legitimate ongoing use or has been compromised at different times.
Two of the four reports came through answered calls, one was a missed call, and one lacked channel specification. The geographic allocation shows 0283180090 is registered to a NSW-based provider (Symbio Networks Pty Ltd), consistent with NDIS operations centred in Australian capitals.
What to Do If You Receive a Call from 02 8318 0090
Given the mixed nature of reports for 02 8318 0090, verification is essential before engaging:
- Do: Ask the caller their full name and NDIS planning team location, then independently verify via the official NDIS website or by calling the NDIS directly on 1800 800 110

NDIS Impersonation and Spoofing Risks
NDIS impersonation scams exploit the fact that participants expect legitimate planning calls and may share personal details more readily. Scammers using or spoofing 02 8318 0090 may claim you have outstanding issues with your plan, request immediate verification of details, or pressure you into payment or information disclosure. The impersonation report linked to 0283180090 involved an unsolicited claim of NDIS affiliation - a pattern consistent with spoofing rather than legitimate NDIS outreach, which typically follows scheduled appointments or known participant relationships.
Always remember that genuine NDIS contact will be either expected by you, verifiable through official channels, or willing to provide a callback number you can independently confirm.

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Is 02 8318 0090 a real NDIS number?
The number 0283180090 appears to be used by NDIS planners for legitimate planning meetings according to two contributors. However, one report indicates it has been used for NDIS impersonation. NDIS does not publicise individual planner numbers, so you should always verify calls from 02 8318 0090 by contacting NDIS directly on 1800 800 110 rather than trusting the caller ID.
Why did an NDIS planner call me from 02 8318 0090 if I didn't contact them?
If you are an active NDIS participant, legitimate planners from this number may contact you to schedule planning meetings or discuss your plan review. However, one contributor reported receiving an unsolicited NDIS impersonation call from 0283180090 without any prior contact. If you do not have an existing NDIS relationship, hang up and verify independently before providing any information.
Why does the NDIS caller from 02 8318 0090 seem slow to respond?
One contributor noted that an NDIS planner using 02 8318 0090 utilises real-time transcription services to communicate. This is a legitimate accessibility accommodation under the Disability Discrimination Act. The slower response time is expected and does not indicate a scam - however, you should still verify the caller's identity independently.
I received a missed call from 02 8318 0090 with no message - should I call back?
One contributor reported a missed call from 0283180090 without a voicemail, which they found unusual. Do not call back a number that called you first without verification. Instead, contact NDIS directly on 1800 800 110 to ask if they attempted to reach you. This protects you from calling back a spoofed number.
What should I do if 02 8318 0090 asks for my Medicare number or bank details?
Hang up immediately. Legitimate NDIS planners do not request bank details or Medicare numbers during unsolicited calls. If you have an existing NDIS relationship and need to provide sensitive information, you can do so at a planned meeting or by calling NDIS directly on 1800 800 110. Do not provide this information to callers from 0283180090 during an unsolicited call.
How do I report an NDIS impersonation call from 02 8318 0090?
