07 3522 5301 (0735225301) generates mixed reports: legitimate Q&A Market Research focus group invitations alongside silent calls and occasional abusive contact. Contributors report paid surveys ($100-$120) but also unexplained hang-ups.

Mixed Reports for 07 3522 5301

The number 07 3522 5301 (also written as 0735225301) presents a complex picture with 15 community reports spanning legitimate market research activity, silent calls, and at least one report of abusive contact. Five contributors confirm this as Q&A Market Research, a company they have worked with for years, receiving payment of $100-$120 for focus group participation and surveys. However, the remaining reports describe silent calls, unexplained hang-ups, repeated calls with no message, and one claim of abusive behaviour from someone claiming to be based in India.

The breakdown suggests 0735225301 is primarily used by Q&A Market Research for legitimate survey recruitment, but the number has also generated nuisance activity including silent calls and potential misuse. Contributors familiar with the company describe being invited to paid focus groups, including one Brisbane City Council event in Milton.

Legitimate Q&A Market Research Activity

Multiple long-term contributors report 07 3522 5301 contacts them for legitimate paid research. One contributor noted, "Been with this market research company for over a decade. they call for surveys and focus groups, made a hundred bucks each time." Another described attending a Brisbane City Council focus group and receiving $120 payment at the end of the event, which "seemed very legitimate." These contributors emphasise they registered with Q&A Research beforehand and expect periodic contact from 0735225301.

One contributor specifically verified the number by calling 07 3522 5301 back and confirmed Q&A Market Research affiliation. Several reports note the company only contacts registered individuals, explaining why some callers receive invitations while others may not recognise the number.

Silent Calls and Nuisance Activity

Alongside legitimate market research reports, at least two contributors describe problematic behaviour from 0735225301. One reported, "Don't know, they hang up after I respond," indicating a silent call pattern. Another contributor received "only weird breathing sounds from the other person." A third report mentioned receiving approximately 7 calls from 07 3522 5301 in a single day with no voicemail left, which the contributor suspected was spam.

The silent call tactic-where the caller disconnects upon answer-has been documented in relation to 0735225301 and raises questions about whether Q&A Research is responsible or if the number is being spoofed or misused by another party.

One Report of Abusive Contact

One contributor reported a single incident of aggressive behaviour from 0735225301, describing the caller as "very rude and abusive" and speculating the person was based in India. This report stands in stark contrast to the long-term positive experiences described by established contributors and may represent a spoofed call, account compromise, or isolated incident rather than standard Q&A Research operations.

What to Do If You Receive a Call from 07 3522 5301

If 0735225301 calls you, your response depends on your prior relationship with Q&A Market Research:

• If you registered with Q&A Market Research: The call is likely legitimate research recruitment. Answer or check voicemail for focus group invitations and payment details.
• If you did not register: The call may be unsolicited market research, silent call activity, or potential misuse of the number. You can request removal from their contact list or decline to participate.
• For silent calls or abusive contact: Do not engage. Hang up immediately and block 07 3522 5301 if the behaviour repeats. Do not return the call if it appears abusive or unidentifiable.
• Do: If you answer and hear silence or breathing sounds, terminate the call and block the number. If you receive repeated calls without voicemail, consider blocking or reporting as nuisance.
