Is anyone else having problems with continuous ghost calls on Orcon home phone.  It started with 3 a day for about 2 months, then went down to about 2 a day. I have contacted Orcon and because they come from a different number each time they cannot do anything.  They all come from a New Zealand number and there never is anyone on the line.  As soon as the call is picked up the connection is stopped.  I have turned off the answer phone to see if that helped but no, they keep coming.  The latest I have tried is not picking up the call but after it rings continuously for 5 minutes I end up picking it up.  The phone number is registered on the do not call register.  Any advice other than cancelling my home line would be appreciated. Thanks.

Can you DM me your account number or phone number and some times of a couple of the calls? the A party if you have them would be good too.

 

I will see what I can find.

We have had similar calls but have never thought it was an Orcon problem.

 

They seem to have subsided recently, but, of course, they will restart soon now!!
