Silent Call Reports for 03 8903 0508
Three contributors have reported activity from 03 8903 0508 (also written as 0389030508), a Telstra local service number in Victoria. The most distinctive pattern involves silent calls where no message is left, despite repeated contact attempts. One contributor who answered the call from 03 8903 0508 reported only silence on the line, consistent with automated systems or callback scams testing active numbers.
Notably, one contributor called back the number 0389030508 and reached a recorded message identifying the caller as part of the NAB group of companies, with instructions to visit www.NAB.com.au for specific enquiries. This suggests the number may be legitimately associated with NAB services, though the silent call pattern remains unexplained.
Call Patterns and Contributor Experiences
Two contributors reported that 03 8903 0508 keeps calling repeatedly without ever leaving a voicemail message. One of these contributors answered a call from 0389030508 but encountered only silence before disconnection. The repeated contact without communication is characteristic of either robocall testing or potential callback scam tactics, where callers attempt to trigger return calls to premium or monitored lines.
The mixed picture - legitimate NAB identification when called back, but unexplained silent calls - suggests either a compromised NAB service line, an automated system using NAB's infrastructure, or contributor confusion about the calling number. Given the silent call tactic reported by one contributor, the number warrants careful handling despite the NAB connection.

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Why does 03 8903 0508 keep calling but not leave messages?
Two contributors reported repeated calls from 03 8903 0508 (0389030508) with no voicemail. Silent calls without messages are often used by automated systems to test whether a number is active. This behaviour is sometimes associated with callback scams, where callers trigger return calls to monitored lines. Even if the number identifies as NAB when called back, the silent call tactic is unusual for legitimate banking services.
I called back 03 8903 0508 and heard a NAB message. Is this number legitimate?
One contributor did reach a NAB group recording when calling back 0389030508, which suggests possible connection to NAB infrastructure. However, this doesn't guarantee the outbound calls are legitimate. Scammers sometimes spoof or misuse legitimate numbers. Since other contributors reported unexplained silent calls from 03 8903 0508, exercise caution. Verify any NAB communication by calling NAB directly on the number on your bank card or their official website, rather than returning calls to 0389030508.
Is 03 8903 0508 a callback scam?
The silent call pattern from 0389030508 is consistent with callback scam testing, where automated systems call to identify active phone numbers, hoping recipients will call back. One contributor answered and heard only silence, which aligns with this behaviour. However, the NAB identification when called back complicates the picture. Until community reports clarify the pattern, treat silent calls from 03 8903 0508 with caution and do not return them.
Should I block 03 8903 0508?
If you've received repeated calls from 03 8903 0508 (0389030508) without voicemail messages or legitimate contact, blocking is recommended. The silent call tactic reported by one contributor, combined with repeated contact attempts, suggests the calls are unwanted. You can block the number on most phones through your call settings. If you do need to contact NAB for genuine banking matters, use the contact details on your bank card or official NAB website rather than returning calls to 0389030508.
What does a silent call from 03 8903 0508 mean?
A silent call from 0389030508 typically means either an automated system is testing the line, or there's a technical issue with the connection. One contributor who answered such a call from 03 8903 0508 heard only silence. In scam contexts, this is often callback testing - the caller hangs up hoping you'll return the call. Legitimate organisations don't use this tactic. If 03 8903 0508 calls silently, do not return the call.
Who is calling from 03 8903 0508?
Based on community reports, 03 8903 0508 (0389030508) is a Telstra local service number in Victoria. One contributor who called back reached a recorded message for the NAB group of companies. However, the silent call pattern reported by another contributor raises questions about whether the outbound calls are legitimate NAB activity or misuse of a NAB-associated line. Community reports suggest treating calls from 03 8903 0508 cautiously despite the NAB connection.
