A third report from a TPG customer notes the call was automatically flagged as spam by their carrier.

What Callers from 03 9022 7159 Do
Contributors report that when 03 9022 7159 calls, they either do not answer or pick up to silence. One contributor described answering the call from 0390227159, waiting for a response, but the caller hung up without speaking. Another report noted they didn't answer in time and received no voicemail, though the number called again.
The consistent pattern suggests automated or robotic initiation rather than a live caller screening calls. Silent calls of this type often indicate list-testing operations, where callers verify active numbers for later targeting, or failed automated system connections.
Report Patterns and Timing
All three reports span a five-month window from November 2025 to April 2026. One call arrived early morning (03:41 on a Sunday), another in the early hours of Wednesday (02:44), and the third during business hours on a Tuesday (07:39). The timing variation suggests multiple call attempts rather than a single isolated incident.
Two contributors took action by blocking 03 9022 7159 after experiencing the calls. The TPG network carrier automatically identified one call as spam before the customer even saw it, indicating the number or associated patterns are already flagged in telecom provider systems.
What to Do If You Receive a Call from 03 9022 7159
If 03 9022 7159 calls you:
- Do not: Answer if you don't recognise the number, or press keys/menu options if you do answer
- Do: Let it ring to voicemail, block the number immediately after the first call, and do not return any call to 0390227159
- Avoid: Staying on the line waiting for a response, as this can confirm your number is active to automated systems

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Why does 03 9022 7159 call and then hang up immediately?
Silent calls from 03 9022 7159 (0390227159) typically indicate automated list-testing or system verification. Callers are checking whether your number is active and monitored. When you answer, some automated systems disconnect to avoid engaging with live people, or the system is testing call routing. This behaviour is common with spam operations, telemarketing campaigns, or failed robocall connections.
Is 0390227159 a scam or just spam?
The three reports of 0390227159 describe nuisance and spam activity rather than active scams. Contributors report silent calls and no malicious claims or requests. However, silent call patterns can be a precursor to more aggressive scam attempts. The calls themselves are unwanted and may indicate your number has been added to calling lists.
Should I answer if 03 9022 7159 calls again?
No. Do not answer calls from 03 9022 7159 if you don't recognise the number. Answering confirms your number is active, which can increase call frequency. The safest response is to let the call go to voicemail, then block 0390227159 immediately. If callers cannot reach you, they may move to other numbers.
Can I block 03 9022 7159 on my phone?
Yes. Both iPhone and Android phones allow you to block numbers. On iPhone, go to Recents, select 03 9022 7159, tap the info icon, and choose Block this Caller. On Android, open Phone, go to Recents, long-press 0390227159, and tap Block number. Your carrier may also allow network-level blocking through their app or customer portal.
Why does TPG flag 03 9022 7159 as spam?
TPG's spam filtering system identified 0390227159 as suspicious based on call patterns, reputation databases, and reports from other customers. Silent calls, frequent disconnections, and rapid dial campaigns trigger spam alerts. This is a positive indicator that the number is already known to be problematic, and TPG's automatic blocking helped that customer avoid the call.
What should I do if 03 9022 7159 keeps calling after I block it?
If 0390227159 continues despite blocking, report the persistent calls to ACMA at acma.gov.au and to your phone provider's support team. Persistent silent calls after blocking may indicate spoofing (caller ID manipulation), in which case ACMA can investigate further. You can also contribute to Reverseau with details of any new calls to help track patterns.
