02 9099 0110 (0290990110): 6 reports of silent calls and after-hours nuisance calls asking about availability, mostly between midnight and 2am. Contributors report repeated calls despite blocking.
Silent Calls and After-Hours Nuisance from 02 9099 0110
Six contributors have reported unwanted calls from 02 9099 0110 (also written as 0290990110), with patterns of silent calls and persistent after-hours contact. One contributor received three silent calls at 9:30pm with no message left. When answering, the caller simply remained silent. Most reports describe callers asking about room or business availability during extremely inconvenient times, particularly between midnight and 2am.
What makes these calls particularly frustrating is that several contributors report the number calls back despite being blocked. One contributor noted blocking 0290990110 on one phone only to receive the same call at 1:47am on a second phone.
What Callers from 02 9099 0110 Say
When contributors answer calls from 02 9099 0110, they encounter callers asking about availability - specifically mentioning room availability in some cases. However, when asked to identify themselves or their company, callers refuse to provide this information. One contributor stated the caller "would not mention the company they are with which is clear because they know we want nothing to do with them."
The pattern suggests these may be business-related enquiries, but the refusal to identify the calling organisation combined with the late-night timing creates a deceptive and intrusive experience. Several contributors describe the calls as pretending to represent a company operating in Sydney, but declining to confirm which one.
Call Patterns and Timing
The most distinctive pattern with 0290990110 is the timing. Reports consistently mention calls occurring outside normal business hours, with multiple contributors describing calls between midnight and 2am. One contributor who is not even based in Sydney received calls during very early morning hours.
Contributors also report a persistence pattern. Despite blocking 02 9099 0110, the number continues to call. One contributor described blocking the number on one phone, only to have it call a second phone at 1:47am asking the same availability question.

Called three times at 9:30pm, no message left. when picked up just silence
Called twice during odd hours, very early morning. I’m not even based in Sydney. Blocked!
Called at 1:47 am and found it to be strange I have one phone ringing but the other didn't turns out it was because I've blocked these guys before.
Blocked them again on the second phone as they continue to enquire about our availability etc but would not mention the company they are with which is clear because they know we want nothing to do with them.
If you searched this number up and found this review I highly recommend blocking them or prepare for normal calls past midnight because they are pretending to be a company operating in Sydney.
blocked on one phone, called again at 1:47 AM on second phone, asked about room availability but wouldn't say who they were
Calling asking for availability always after hours - so sick of it.

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Why does 02 9099 0110 keep calling even after I've blocked it?
One contributor reported that blocking 0290990110 on one phone did not prevent the same caller from reaching another phone at 1:47am. This suggests the caller may be using systematic dialling or has access to multiple contact numbers for the same household or business. The best approach is to block on all devices and report the pattern to ACMA at acma.gov.au.
What should I do if 02 9099 0110 calls and there's just silence?
A recent report described receiving three silent calls from 02 9099 0110 at 9:30pm. When answering, the caller simply remained silent. Hang up immediately without speaking, as staying on the line or speaking can confirm your number is active. Block 0290990110 and do not call back - this is a common tactic to identify active numbers.
Why does 02 9099 0110 ask about availability but won't say who they are?
Multiple contributors received calls from 0290990110 asking about room or business availability, but the callers refused to identify their company. One contributor noted this refusal was "clear because they know we want nothing to do with them." This evasion is a red flag - legitimate businesses identify themselves immediately.
Is 02 9099 0110 calling at unusual hours?
Yes. Contributors reported calls from 02 9099 0110 occurring consistently between midnight and 2am. One call came at 1:47am, another at 9:30pm, and another during early morning hours. These times far outside normal business hours make the calls particularly intrusive and suspicious.
Who is calling from 0290990110?
The exact organisation is unclear because callers refuse to identify themselves. However, based on 6 community reports, 0290990110 appears to be associated with someone or an organisation pretending to operate in Sydney and enquiring about business availability. The provider information shows it's registered to Symbio Networks in NSW.
Should I report 02 9099 0110 to the Do Not Call Register?
If you've registered your number with the Do Not Call Register at donotcall.gov.au, you can report 0290990110 for calling you. However, given the pattern of calls from 02 9099 0110 at midnight and the refusal to identify, this may not be a standard telemarketing operation. Consider also reporting to ACMA at acma.gov.au and Scamwatch at scamwatch.gov.au.
