Community report for 03 9022 6373 (0390226373): Robocall with silence followed by automated message. Number disconnects when called back.
Robocall Reports for 03 9022 6373
One contributor has reported receiving a robocall from 03 9022 6373 (also written as 0390226373). The call exhibited typical robocall characteristics: initial silence followed by an automated voice message saying 'Goodbye' before disconnecting. When the contributor attempted to call back the number 0390226373, they found the line was disconnected or no longer in service.
This pattern is common with robocalls that use temporary or spoofed numbers. The automated nature of the call and the inability to reach the number afterwards suggests this was likely an automated dialling campaign rather than a genuine business contact.
What the Automated Message Indicated
The robocall from 03 9022 6373 delivered minimal information before terminating. The contributor reported only hearing silence initially, followed by a brief automated response of 'Goodbye'. This abrupt disconnection after an automated message is characteristic of failed robocall attempts or intentionally brief calls designed to test if a number is active.
Call Characteristics and Callback Issues
When the contributor tried to verify who was calling by ringing back 0390226373, the number was no longer reachable. This disconnect-on-callback pattern is deliberate on the caller's part and prevents contributors from identifying the source or reporting it directly to the originating organisation. The call came from a local Victorian service (allocated to NetSIP Pty Ltd in Victoria), though the actual originator may have spoofed or hijacked this number.
What to Do If You Receive a Call from 03 9022 6373
If 03 9022 6373 calls you:
- Do not: Answer unknown numbers, try to call back, or press any buttons in response to automated prompts
- Do: Let it go to voicemail, block the number immediately on your phone, and report it as spam
- Do not engage: Return a call to 0390226373 if you miss it, as robocallers often disconnect lines after the initial call
Robocalls often use temporary numbers that are disconnected after the campaign, making callback attempts futile and potentially exposing you to secondary scams.

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Why does the call from 03 9022 6373 say 'Goodbye' and then disconnect?
Robocalls from 03 9022 6373 often use automated systems that play brief messages to confirm if a number is active. The 'Goodbye' message followed by disconnection suggests the call was part of a batch robocalling campaign. When you try to call back 0390226373, the number is typically disconnected because robocallers use temporary lines.
Is it safe to call back 0390226373 if I missed the call?
No. Do not attempt to call back 0390226373. The contributor who received the robocall found the number was disconnected when they tried returning it. Calling back robocalls can expose you to secondary scams or confirm your number is active, leading to more unwanted calls.
What should I do with my phone if 03 9022 6373 calls again?
Block 03 9022 6373 immediately in your phone's contact settings. Most modern phones allow you to block numbers directly. After blocking 0390226373, report the number to ACMA at acma.gov.au and your phone provider as a robocall source.
Could 03 9022 6373 be a legitimate business trying to reach me?
Unlikely. Legitimate businesses do not use silent robocalls followed by automated 'Goodbye' messages and then disconnect their lines. The fact that 0390226373 is unreachable when called back strongly indicates this was an automated campaign, not a genuine service trying to contact you.
What does it mean that 03 9022 6373 is allocated to NetSIP in Victoria?
The number 0390226373 is registered to NetSIP Pty Ltd, a VoIP provider in Victoria. However, this does not mean NetSIP originated the robocall. Robocallers often spoof or misuse legitimate provider allocations, so the actual source of the call from 03 9022 6373 may be unrelated to the registered provider.
Should I register my number on the Do Not Call Register to stop calls from 0390226373?
Yes, registering at donotcall.gov.au can help reduce some unwanted calls. However, robocalls like the one from 03 9022 6373 often originate overseas or use spoofed numbers and may not comply with the register. Blocking 0390226373 directly and reporting it to ACMA is your most effective immediate action.
