Why is 0862757230 calling me repeatedly?
If 08 6275 7230 is calling you multiple times, it's likely an automated or sequential dialling campaign. One contributor reported three calls from 0862757230 within a single day. Compare the Market uses calling lists to contact potential customers. You can ask them to stop calling when you answer, or register your number on the Do Not Call Register at donotcall.gov.au to reduce telemarketing contact.
Should I answer calls from 08 6275 7230?
It's not necessary to answer calls from 0862757230. If you do answer and it's marketing you're not interested in, you can politely decline and ask to be removed from the calling list. If you'd rather not engage, let 08 6275 7230 go to voicemail and block the number if calls continue.

Yes. Most Australian smartphones allow you to block numbers directly. On iPhone, open the recent call from 0862757230, tap the info icon, and select 'Block this Caller'.

Marketing organisations often use regional numbers to appear local and increase answer rates.
