Community reports for 0413 869 284 (0413869284): Wine Club caller ignores opt-out requests, continues calling from multiple numbers despite blocking.

Repeated Wine Club Calls from 0413 869 284

Two contributors have reported persistent calls from 0413 869 284 (also written as 0413869284), with one describing a six-month pattern of unwanted contact from a wine subscription service. The caller identifies themselves as 'John from the Wine Club' and continues calling despite explicit requests to stop. What makes this pattern particularly frustrating is that when contributors block 0413 869 284, the wine club simply calls from alternative numbers, making it difficult to establish a permanent block.

The mobile number 0413869284 is registered with Optus Mobile. Contributors report that the caller uses different phone numbers to circumvent blocks, with one report specifically noting that calls shifted to 0440135896 after the original number was blocked.

What Callers from 0413 869 284 Say

The caller identifies as 'John from the Wine Club' and attempts to maintain or renew wine subscription services. According to contributors, the caller refuses to accept 'no' as a final answer. One contributor noted that after six months of repeated requests to be removed from the contact list, the calls from 0413 869 284 have continued unabated.

The tactic appears designed to wear down resistance through persistence. Rather than accepting an opt-out request on the first call, the wine club behind 0413869284 cycles through different phone numbers to re-contact the same person, essentially bypassing the blocking mechanism that would stop calls from 0413 869 284 specifically.

Call Patterns and Timing

One contributor describes receiving continuous calls from 0413 869 284 over a six-month period. After blocking the number, calls resumed from 0440135896 and potentially other numbers. This suggests a deliberate strategy to maintain contact rather than accidental repeated dialling.

Both reports were submitted via answered calls, indicating the contributors actually picked up the phone when 0413 869 284 came through. The persistence pattern suggests these are not random telemarketing blitzes but targeted follow-ups to existing or former customers.

What to Do If You Receive a Call from 0413 869 284

If 0413 869 284 calls you:

• Do not: Engage with requests to reconsider or provide updated contact information, as this may signal active interest and trigger more calls
• Do: State clearly that you wish to be removed from their contact list, then hang up immediately
• Do: Block 0413 869 284 in your phone's contacts or through your Optus account settings
• Do: Document the date and time of each call and note any alternate numbers used
• Do: Be aware that blocking 0413869284 may not stop the wine club from using other numbers to contact you

How to Report 0413 869 284

If you receive unwanted calls from 0413 869 284 or related numbers:

• Report to the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) at acma.gov.au. ACMA handles complaints about persistent unwanted calls and can take action against companies that ignore Do Not Call requests.
• Register your number with the Do Not Call Register at donotcall.gov.au. This is a free service that allows you to opt out of telemarketing calls. If a company continues calling after registration, report them directly to ACMA.
• If the calls continue from different numbers after you have formally requested removal, keep records of all contact attempts and report the company's pattern to ACMA as harassment or breach of Do Not Call requirements.
• Consider reporting the issue to Reverseau to help other contributors identify and track this number and its related calling patterns.

Understanding Repeated-Call Tactics

The strategy used by the caller behind 0413 869 284 - cycling through multiple phone numbers to avoid blocks - is designed to frustrate contributors into compliance. Once you block 0413869284, the wine club moves to the next number in their rotation, resetting your blocking efforts. This is why one contributor emphasised the issue in their report: standard blocking doesn't address the underlying behaviour.

The appropriate response is not just blocking individual numbers but making a formal complaint to ACMA and the Do Not Call Register, which can address the company's overall behaviour rather than just one telephone number.
